Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
~You could burn yourself on the hot drawer or crockery. Protect
your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling
hot dishes. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
~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.
~Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the
appliance when it is in use could catch fire. Do not use the
appliance to heat up the room.
~Never replace the anti-slip mat supplied with the appliance with
paper kitchen towel or similar.
~If you overload the drawer, or sit or lean on it, the telescopic
runners will be damaged. The telescopic runners can support a
maximum load of 15 kg.
~If the appliance is installed behind a kitchen furniture door, it may
only be used with the furniture door open.
Only close the door if the appliance is switched off.
~Moisture in the food or drinks could cause corrosion damage to
the drawer. Do not use the appliance to reheat, cook or keep food or
drinks warm.
Warning and Safety instructions
9

~Depending on the temperature selected and the length of time
the appliance is being used, the inside of the drawer can get
extremely hot during use, and remain hot for some time after being
switched off. Be careful not to touch it when the drawer is open.
~To minimise the risk of burning yourself on the inside of the
drawer, always pull it out as far as it will go before removing
crockery.
Cleaning and care
~Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.

Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
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.
Disposing 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 or contact your dealer for
advice. Please ensure that it presents
no danger for children while being
stored for disposal.
Caring for the environment
11

Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied
with this documentation in the space provided in the "After
sales service, data plate, guarantee" section of this booklet.
Cleaning and heating up for the first time
^Remove any protective foil.
^Remove the anti-slip mat from the drawer, and wipe the
mat with warm water and a little washing-up liquid. Dry
using a soft cloth.
^Wipe the appliance inside and out with a damp cloth only,
and then dry with a soft cloth.
^Replace the anti-slip mat in the drawer.
^Then heat the empty drawer for at least two hours. Set the
temperature control to maximum (see "Selecting a
temperature").
The 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.
Before using for the first time
12

Do not use the appliance to reheat, cook or keep food or
drinks warm. Condensation from the food or drinks could
lead to corrosion in the appliance.
Always use oven gloves to remove heated crockery from
the drawer.
The maximum load bearing capacity of the appliance is
15 kg.
The base of the drawer is fitted with an anti-slip mat which
stops crockery sliding about when the drawer is opened and
closed.
Opening and closing the drawer
The drawer can be opened and closed by pressing lightly in
the middle of the drawer front.
Controls
The controls consist of a temperature dial and an On/Off
switch. These are only visible when the drawer is open.
When the drawer is closed, you can tell when the appliance is
switched on because the On/Off switch illuminates through a
hole in the front of the drawer.
Operation
13

How to operate the drawer
^Place the crockery inside the drawer.
^Select the temperature required.
^Switch on the appliance (j).
The switch lights up.
^Close the drawer.
Switch the appliance off (k) before removing the heated
crockery.
Pull the drawer out to its full extent before unloading it.
Select a temperature
The temperature dial allows you to select any temperature
between approx. 30 and 50 °C.
The temperature selector must only be turned in a
clockwise direction as far as it will go and then back
again.
Otherwise it will be damaged.
When the temperature is reached, the heating element
switches itself off. When the temperature falls below that
selected, the heating element switches on again
automatically.
The optimum temperature for warming cups is approx. 40 °C.
Drinks poured into warmed cups do not cool down so
quickly, but cups are still not too hot to handle.
Operation
14

Heating up times
Various factors will affect the heating up times:
–the material and thickness of the crockery
–maximum capacity
–how the crockery is arranged
–the temperature setting.
It is therefore not possible to state precise times.
However, the following information can be used as a guide:
At a temperature setting of approx. 50 °C, it takes approx.
30-40 minutes to heat crockery through to an even
temperature.
As you use the plate warmer, you will get to know which
setting suits your own needs best.
Operation
15

Capacity
The quantity that can be loaded will depend to a great extent
on the type and size of your own crockery.
Example
–25 Cappuccino cups, C88 mm
or
–56 Espresso cups, C60 mm
Place cups and glasses upside down in the drawer so that
they warm through evenly.
The maximum load bearing capacity of the appliance is
15 kg.
