**** Disposing of old electrical items
European Directive 2012/19/EC regarding Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), states that old household electrical appliances may not be disposed of via regular unsorted waste streams. To optimize used material recycling and reduce the negative effects on health and the environment, old appliances should be collected separately. The “crossed-out wheelie bin” logo on the product will remind you that when you wish to dispose of the appliance you are obliged to have it collected separately.

This warming drawer is designed for use by individuals in their homes. It is only intended for pre-warming tableware, keeping food warm and slow cooking. Any other use is prohibited and may be dangerous. The manufacturer disclaims liability in the event of improper use. Under certain conditions, the outside of the warming drawer may reach
70 °C (depending on the selected temperature and length of use). Always use oven mitts or gloves to remove the warmed tableware from the drawer.
Keeping food warm
Never place items such as pans in the drawer directly from naked flame or from the oven as this may damage the hot plate. The drawer may be loaded to a maximum 25 kg. Overloading can damage the appliance.
Do not climb or sit on the open drawer as this may damage the appliance.
Do not store or place plastic products or flammable objects in the appliance. These could melt or catch fire during use.

Warming time

The warming time for tableware depends on several factors:

  • material and thickness of the tableware;
  • fill level;
  • distribution of the load;
  • temperature control.

This means that it is not possible to give precise data in advance.

A few recommendations:
Even warming at a temperature of 60 °C will take:

  • approximately 30 mins for crockery for a meal for six people
  • approximately 40 mins for crockery for a meal for twelve people

You will learn from experience which timing suits your crockery best.

All surfaces should be cleaned only with a damp cloth and some soapy water. Then dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
Using abrasive products, alcohol or solvents is not recommended; these can damage the appliance.
The front is stainless steel or glass and is susceptible to scratching.
Use special non-abrasive cleaning products suitable for stainless steel.
The glass bottom can be cleaned with warm water and washing-up liquid. It should only be replaced in the drawer once it is perfectly dry.
