understand the potential dangers
posed by it. They should be supervised
whenever you are working in the
kitchen.

and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off. To safeguard
against burning, keep children well
away from the appliance at all times.

and young children. Danger of
suffocation. Dispose of or recycle all
packaging safely as soon as possible.
Technical safety
~Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. It could be dangerous.
~The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is most
important that this basic safety
requirement is observed and regularly
tested, and where there is any doubt,
the electrical system in the house
should be inspected by a qualified
electrician. Miele cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~Before connecting the appliance to

otherwise the appliance could be
damaged. Consult a qualified
electrician if in any doubt.
~For safety reasons, this appliance
may only be used when it has been
built in.
~This appliance must be installed
and connected by a suitably qualified

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. Miele
cannot be held liable for unauthorised

used.
~During installation, maintenance and
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply.

Warning and Safety instructions
9

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.
~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.
~Take care when opening and
closing the loaded drawer, that liquids
do not spill over and get 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.
~Make sure that the vents inside the
drawer are not covered. Otherwise,
food and crockery will not heat up
evenly.
~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. as
these melt at high temperatures and
could catch fire.
~Do not sit or lean on the opened
drawer. This will damage the telescopic
runners.
~Make sure that you select a high
enough temperature setting to keep
food warm. Bacteria can develop on
the food if the temperature is too low.
~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.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety
instructions.

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 sfunction 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.
– 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.
