Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Before installation, check the

~

appliance for visible signs of damage.
Under no circumstances should you
use it if it has been damaged. A
damaged appliance is dangerous.

Before connecting the appliance to

~

the mains supply, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate
(voltage and connected load)
correspond with the mains electricity
supply, otherwise the appliance could
be damaged. If in any doubt, consult a
qualified electrician.

The electrical safety of this

~

appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system. It is
most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly
tested, and where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

This appliance may be connected

~

via a fused plug and switched socket. If
you wish to connect it to a fused spur
connection unit, or if the appliance is
supplied without a plug, it must be
installed and connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by incorrect
installation or connection.

For safety reasons, this appliance

~

may only be used when it has been
built in.

Never open the housing of the

~

appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.

Installation, maintenance and

~

repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.

If the connection cable is damaged,

~

it must be replaced by a suitably
qualified electrician with a specialist
connection cable of type H 05 V V-F
(pvc insulated), available from the Miele
Service Department.

Faulty components must only be

~

replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.

9

Warning and Safety instructions

During installation, maintenance and

~

repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:

the mains fuse is disconnected,

–

the screw-out fuse is removed (in

–

countries where this is applicable),

it is switched off at the wall socket

–

and the plug is withdrawn from the
socket, or

it is switched off at the fused spur

–

connection unit.

Do not connect the appliance to the

~

mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).

In countries where there are areas

~

which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage caused by cockroaches or
other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.

Correct use

For added protection, it is advisable

~

to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.

The underside of the drawer gets

~

hot when switched on. Be careful not to
touch it when the drawer is open.

Do not store any plastic containers

~

or inflammable objects in the warming
drawer. They could melt or catch fire
when the appliance is switched on,
causing a fire hazard.

Take care when opening and

~

closing the loaded drawer, that liquids
do not spill over and get into the
appliance through the vents. This can
cause lingering odours and the
appliance to short circuit.

Do not heat up unopened tins or jars

~

of food in the drawer, as pressure will
build up in the tin or jar, causing it to
explode. This could result in injury and
scalding or damage.

Ensure food is really hot when

~

placed inside the warming drawer. The
drawer is designed to keep hot food
warm, and not to warm food up.

10

Make sure that the vents inside the

~

drawer are not covered. Otherwise,
food and crockery will not heat up
evenly.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use the appliance to heat up

~

the room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.

Never replace the anti-slip mat

~

supplied with the appliance with paper
kitchen towel or similar.

Do not overload the drawer. The

~

maximum load bearing capacity of the
drawer is 25 kg.

Only place heat-resistant crockery in

~

the drawer. Never place plastic or
aluminium foil items in the drawer.
These melt at high temperatures, and
could catch fire.

Do not sit or lean on the opened

~

drawer. This can damage the
telescopic runners.

Make sure that you select a high

~

enough temperature setting to keep
food warm. Bacteria can develop in the
food if the temperature is too low.

Never use a steam cleaner to clean

~

the appliance. The steam could reach
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.

While the appliance is under

~

guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

11

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material

The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.

Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are recycled.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre, and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

12

Before using for the first time

A display test is carried out for 10 seconds after the
appliance has been installed and after a power cut. The fan
comes on at the same time. The appliance cannot be used
during this time.

Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied
with this documentation in the space provided in the "After
sales service" section of this booklet.

Cleaning and heating up for the first time

Remove any protective foil and sticky labels.

that the heating element and fan in the appliance only work
when the drawer is closed.

13

Before using for the first time

The appliance switches itself off automatically after 2 hours.

Metal components have a protective coating which may give
off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours will dissipate after a short time,
and do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated whilst the appliance
is being heated up for the first time.

19

Keeping food warm

This function is for keeping food warm that has just been
cooked, i.e. food that is still hot. It is not for reheating food
that has gone cold.

In order to ensure that the temperature does not drop

–

below the minimum required for keeping food warm
(65°C), select the s function only.

Pre-heat the drawer thoroughly for 15 minutes to ensure

–

that it has reached the required temperature.

Whilst the appliance is heating up, place the empty dishes

–

in it to warm them up. Then place the hot food into the
pre-heated dishes.

Do not cover roast or fried foods which you want to keep

–

crisp. These types of food need to be kept warm at a
higher temperature.

– Cover food with a high moisture content, liquids and foods

which can develop a skin, with aluminium foil or a plate.

– To avoid spillages, do not overfill dishes.

– Freshly cooked food is hotter than food which is being kept

warm. Serve food which is being kept warm on pre-heated
plates.

20

– Nutrients are lost when food is cooked, and continue to

diminish when food is kept warm. The longer food is kept
warm for, the greater the loss of nutrients.

–

We do not recommend food being kept warm for too long,
as it will continue to cook.

–

Do not slam the drawer open or shut. Liquids could spill
over and get into the vents.

–

Food may cool down if the drawer is opened and shut too
often.

21

Warming crockery

Distribute the crockery over the whole area of the drawer.

–

Stacks of plates heat up more slowly than individual pieces
of crockery. If large stacks of plates are unavoidable,
place them at the front of the drawer. Use the rack
(depending on model).

Do not place large serving dishes right up against the

–

vents. They will cover the warm air outlets, and the
crockery will not heat up evenly.

For cups and glasses, only select the / function to ensure

–

that the maximum temperature (60°C) is not exceeded.

Heated crockery cools down very quickly. Do not remove it

–

from the drawer until just before you need it.

Heating up times

Various factors will affect the heating up times:

– The material and thickness of the crockery

– The amount of crockery

– How the crockery is arranged

– The temperature setting.

22

It is therefore not possible to state precise times.

However, the following information can be used as a guide:

On the H settings, it takes approx.

–

30 to 35 minutes for 6 place settings to heat up evenly.

–

40 to 45 minutes for 12 place settings to heat up evenly.

As you use the plate warmer, you will get to know which
setting suits your own needs best.

Other usages

Low-temperature cooking

Meat can be cooked at a constant low temperature over a
longer period of time, with very tender results.

It is possible to use the food warming drawer to cook meat at
a low temperature. This is only suitable where the core
temperature does not exceed 65°C. The meat must be
seared first.

Cooking duration/core temperature

The cooking duration depends on the size of the individual
pieces of meat, and can be between 1 and 6 hours.

The core temperature is important for a good cooking result.
The higher the core temperature, the dryer the meat will
become. At a lower core temperature, the meat retains its
succulence. It is essential to maintain a constant temperature.

A meat thermometer can be used to monitor the core
temperature.

To cook meat in the food warming drawer

^ Pre-heat the warming drawer.

24

^ Sear the meat on all sides over a high heat on the hob. The

heat closes the pores of the meat, and seals in the juices.

^

Arrange the meat in a roasting pan or on a plate, and cover
with aluminium foil. Place the roasting pan or plate in the
floor of the drawer. See the following table for temperature
settings.

^

Serve the meat on warm plates to stop it cooling too
quickly.

Safety instructions for installation

Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply

~

make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage
and connected load) correspond with the mains electricity
supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

The socket and on-off switch should be easily accessible

~

after the appliance has been built in.

The food warming drawer may only be built in in

~

combination with those appliances quoted by the
manufacturer as being suitable. The manufacturer cannot
guarantee trouble-free operation if the appliance is operated
in combination with appliances other than those quoted by
the manufacturer as being suitable.

When building in the food warming drawer in combination

~

with another suitable appliance, the food warming drawer
must be fitted above a fixed interim shelf in the housing unit
to ensure that the housing unit can suport both its weight and
that of the other appliance.

As the combination appliance is placed directly on top of

~

the food warming drawer once it is built in, an interim shelf is
not necessary between the two appliances.

The appliance must be built in so that the contents of the

~

drawer can be seen. This is to avoid scalding from hot food
spilling over. There must be enough space for the drawer to
be pulled out fully.

This appliance may only be installed in mobile installations

~

such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of
the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.

The food warming drawer is available in two models,

~

which differ in height. The building-in dimensions for the food
warming drawer must be added to the building-in dimensions
for the combination appliance to establish the niche size
