warming drawer until it has cooled down and there is no danger of
burning.
 Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be
kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children
could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and
suffocate.

Warning and Safety instructions
7
Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re‐
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
 A damaged drawer can be dangerous. Always check for visible
signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
 Reliable and safe operation of the drawer can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electrical supply.
 The electrical safety of this drawer can only be guaranteed when
correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement
is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested
by a qualified electrician.
 Before connecting the drawer to the mains supply, ensure that the
connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to
the drawer. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
 Do not connect the drawer to the mains electrical supply by a
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
 For safety reasons, this drawer may only be used when it has
been built in.
 This drawer must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on
a ship).
 Never open the casing of the drawer.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.

Warning and Safety instructions
8
 While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be un‐
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
guarantee is invalidated.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu‐
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
 If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is
supplied without a plug, the drawer must be connected to the elec‐
trical supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
 If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suit‐
ably qualified electrician with a specialist connection cable of type H
05 VV-F (pvc insulated), available from Miele.
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the drawer must
be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
 You could burn yourself on a hot drawer or on hot crockery. Pro‐
tect your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when
working with the hot appliance. 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
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 draw‐
er when it is in use could catch fire. Do not use the drawer to heat
up the room.
 Never replace the anti-slip mat supplied with the appliance with
paper kitchen towel or similar.
 The telescopic runners can support a maximum load of 25 kg.
Overloading or leaning or sitting on the drawer will damage the tele‐
scopic runners.
 If the drawer is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), en‐
sure that the door is never closed whilst the drawer is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause
subsequent damage to the drawer, the housing unit and the floor.
Do not close the door until the drawer has cooled down completely.
 The underside of the drawer gets hot when switched on. Be care‐
ful not to touch it when the drawer is open.
 The anti-slip mat is heat-resistant up to 200 °C.
It is possible for the bottom of cookware to exceed this temperature,
especially after it has been used to sear food. Allow the cookware to
cool down for a minute or two before placing it in the drawer.
 Cookware made of plastic or aluminium foil will melt at high tem‐
peratures. When keeping food warm, use only heat-resistant cook‐
ware made of porcelain, glass, etc.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 Liquids that get inside the drawer can cause the appliance to
short-circuit. Open and close a loaded drawer carefully to prevent
liquids from spilling.
 The "Keep food warm" function is designed to keep hot food
warm and not to warm up cold food. Ensure food is really hot when
placed inside the drawer.
 Bacteria can develop on the food if the temperature is too low.
Make sure that you set a high enough temperature to keep food
warm.
Cleaning and care
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean the drawer.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir‐
cuit.

Caring for the environment
11
Disposal of the packing mate‐
rial
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 manufactur‐
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances of‐
ten contain valuable materials. They al‐
so contain materials which, if handled
or disposed of incorrectly, could be po‐
tentially 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 com‐
munity waste collection / recycling cen‐
tre or contact your Dealer for advice.
Ensure that it presents no danger to
children while being stored for disposal.

Keeping food warm
20
In order to ensure that the tempera‐
ture does not drop below the mini‐
mum required for keeping food warm
(65 °C), select the function only.
This function is for keeping food
which has just been cooked and is still
hot. It is not for reheating food that
has gone cold.
Select the function.
Select the desired time setting.
Pre-heat the drawer for 15 minutes to
ensure that it has reached the required
temperature.
Whilst the appliance is heating up,
place the empty dishes in the drawer.
Remove the pre-heated dishes from
the drawer after 15 minutes and fill
them with the hot food. Use oven
gloves to remove the dishes from the
drawer.
Then place the dishes in the drawer
and close it carefully to prevent any
liquid food from spilling.
Tips
– Place the hot food in pre-heated
dishes. To pre-heat dishes, place
them in the drawer while it is heating
up.
– Do not cover roast or fried food
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 con‐
tent and liquid and food 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. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time
as possible.
– We do not recommend food being
kept warm for too long, as it will con‐
tinue to cook.
– Food may cool down if the drawer is
opened and closed too often.
– Do not slam the drawer open or shut.
Liquids could spill over and get into
the vents or into the inner parts of the
drawer.
