Safety instructions
Read these instructions carefully, in order to operate the appliance correctly and safely.
Keep the user manual ready to hand. If you are making the appliance available to other people, please
make sure that the relevant user manual is available.
After unpacking the appliance, check it for any damage caused in transit. Do not plug in the appliance if it
has been damaged.
This appliance is intended solely for private, domestic use indoors. The appliance may only be used for
heating crockery and for keeping food warm. Persons who are unable to operate the appliance safely due
to their physical, sensory or mental capability or lack of experience or knowledge, must be supervised
while they are using the appliance. These persons may then only use the appliance unaided if they are
supervised by a person who is responsible for their safety or have been instructed by such a person in the
safe operation of the appliance, and have understood the resulting risks.
Children must not be allowed to play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be
carried out by children, unless they are aged 8 or over and are supervised.
Children under the age of 8 must be kept away from the appliance and the connection
cable.
Risk of burns
The appliance becomes hot during operation, and remains hot for some time after being switched off.
Keep children away from the appliance until it has cooled sufficiently so that there is no risk of burns.
Crockery, food or other objects become hot. Always use pot holders when moving hot crockery, food or
other objects to protect against burns.
Risk of suffocation
Children can cover themselves when playing with packaging material (e.g. film) or can pull it over their
head and suffocate. Keep packaging material away from children.
Risk of electric shock
The cable insulation can melt if it touches hot parts of the appliance. Never bring connection cables into
contact with hot appliance parts. Penetrating humidity can cause an electric shock. Do not use pressure
washers or steam cleaners. Never wet-clean the appliance.
A faulty appliance may cause an electric shock. Do not switch a device on if it is faulty, as this may cause
an electric shock. Unplug the appliance or switch off the fuse in the fuse box.
Improper repairs are dangerous. Installation and maintenance work must only be carried out by trained
experts.
Risk of fire
The appliance becomes very hot. Flammable materials may ignite. Never place flammable objects or
plastic containers in the appliance, even when it is switched off.

Installation guide
Electrical connection
The appliance may only be connected to an earthed socket installed in accordance with the regulations.
Replacement of the connection cable or relocation of the socket must only be carried out by a qualified
technician or expert in accordance with the current legislation.
The appliance may only be connected to the mains using the connection cable
supplied.
The use of multiple sockets, socket strips (distribution boards) or extension cables is not permitted.
Overloading may cause a fire.
If the plug can no longer be reached after the appliance is installed, the electrical connection must be
made using an all-pole switch suitable for the current strength. This switch must have a minimum
distance of 3 mm between the contacts, so that interruption is possible in an emergency.
The connection must be fitted with appropriate earthing according to current regulations.
The appliance must not be used unless it is properly earthed.
Fitted unit
The appliance cabinet or fitted cupboard must have a fixed intermediate shelf and must not have a rear
wall.
There must be a gap of at least 2 cm between the building wall and the intermediate shelf. This gap is
necessary to prevent a build-up of heat.
If used in combination with other appliances, please follow the installation instructions for
combinations.
Installing the appliance
Place the appliance on the intermediate shelf in the unit and push it in until the mounting brackets on the
left and right of the device are flush with the unit.
Make sure the appliance is level and located centrally in the unit. The gaps between the appliance and the
unit on the left and right must be the same size. The appliance must not come into direct contact with the
wood on one or both sides.
Fix the appliance in the unit using the screws supplied.
During installation, make sure the drawer is not tilted out of the unit before the appliance is screwed to the
unit at all the screw locations.
Take care to avoid bending, clamping or damaging the connection cable during installation. The
connection cable must not touch the appliance after installation.

Functions
You can use the warming drawer to warm crockery (plates, cups, bowls, etc.) or food, or keep them
warm. The drawer can hold up to 15 kg.
Please remember that anything you want to heat up or keep warm in the warming drawer may be very
hot. The touchable components or surfaces of the drawer itself can also get very hot. To protect against
burns, always use an oven glove or pot holder during use.
Pre-warming crockery
Place the crockery in the warming drawer and switch it on. Set the control dial to 6.
Close the warming drawer and wait until the crockery has reached the required temperature.
Depending on the quantity and size of the crockery and the temperature set, the time needed for all
items to reach the same temperature can vary.
To end the warming process: open the drawer and turn the control dial to minimum. Turn the appliance off
using the on/off switch.
Keeping food warm
You can keep food warm in the warming drawer. Do not place pans or pots onto the anti-slip mat directly
from the oven or hob, as this might cause damage. Allow the pans or pots to cool to below 80°C, or move
the food to a cool container, such as a glass dish.
When the food has stopped boiling and is barely still steaming, it is at the right temperature to put in
the drawer.
It is advisable to preheat the drawer for about 5-10 minutes before using it to keep food warm.
When keeping foods such as meat, fish, vegetables, side dishes, soups, sauces, etc. hot, turn the
control dial to the maximum 9 setting.
Thawing frozen foods
You can use the warming drawer to thaw/heat up frozen foods.
Place the food on a plate or in a glass dish. Switch the drawer on and set the control dial to about 3.
Leave the food in the drawer until it has thawed to the required extent.

Cleaning and maintenance:
Clean the appliance with a soft cloth only. The inside of the drawer can be wiped with a damp cloth and a
little washing-up liquid.
You can use glass cleaner to clean the outside of the appliance if it has a glass front.
Never use sharp or pointed objects to clean the appliance, or any aggressive or abrasive
cleaning agents, as these can damage the surface and cause corrosion.
To prevent corrosion, always remove the anti-slip mat before cleaning the drawer, so that any dirt
underneath it and any residual fluid can be removed
The anti-slip mat can be cleaned with water and washing-up liquid. Wait until it is dry before replacing it
in the appliance.
Stainless steel surfaces:
Always remove dirt from stainless steel surfaces immediately, to prevent corrosion.
To avoid scratches, always clean brushed stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the finish.
Troubleshooting
The crockery or the food is not hot enough.
Check to see if
othe appliance is plugged in.
othe appliance is switched on.
othe correct temperature is selected.
osomething is covering the outlets of the heating fan (plates, lids, other objects).
othe crockery or food has been left to heat up for long enough.
Remember that the heating time can be affected by various factors such as:
othickness and material of the crockery
oquantity of items to be heated
ohow items are arranged in the drawer
otemperature setting
oinitial temperature of the items to be heated up
The crockery or the food has not been heated up.
Check to see if
othe appliance is plugged in.
othe appliance is switched on.
othe correct temperature is selected.
oyou can hear the fan.
If you can hear the fan, there is a fault with the heating element. If you cannot hear the fan, the
fan is faulty.
othe mains fuse has tripped.
The on/off switch does not light up when the appliance is switched on.
oThe control lamp of the switch is faulty.
The drawer does not open when pushed (for drawers without handles).
oThe closure is blocked:
Pull on the front until you hear a loud click and the drawer opens. This built-in emergency unlocking
mechanism lets you continue using the drawer. If the drawer does not close and open normally
afterwards, there is a fault with the closure.
Any repair work must be carried out only by qualified experts. Improper repairs carried out by
unauthorised persons may result in considerable danger for you.
