Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children to prevent danger of suffocation.

Disposal 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 the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not dispose of old appliances with your household waste. Please dispose of them at your local community waste collection/recycling centre or contact your dealer for advice. Please ensure that it presents
no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Correct use

The warming drawer is designed to keep hot food warm. It is not designed to warm food up from room or fridge temperature. Ensure food is already really hot when you place it in the drawer.

You could burn yourself on the hot drawer or crockery. Protect your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the 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 flammable objects in the warming drawer. They could melt or catch fire when the appliance is switched on.
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.
I f 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 25kg.
Do not install this appliance behind a cupboard door, it requires adequate ventilation to operate safely.
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 or scalding, as well as potential damage to the appliance.
The underside of the drawer gets hot when switched on. Be careful not to touch it when the drawer is open.
Do not use plastic or aluminium containers. These melt at high temperatures and could catch fire. Use only heat-resistant crockery made of glass, porcelain, etc.
Take care when opening and closing the loaded drawer, so that liquids do not spill over and get through the vents. This can cause the appliance to short circuit.
Bacteria can develop on the food if the temperature is too low. Make sure you set a high enough temperature to keep food warm.

Technical safety

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The appliance is fitted with a plug and must only be connected to a properly installed earthed socket. Only a qualified electrician who takes the approriate regulations into account may install the socket or replace the connecting cable. If the plug is no longer accessible following installation, an all-pole isolating switch must be present on the installation side with a contact gap of at least 3mm. Contact protection must be ensured by the installation.

I nstallation, maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations. Installation, maintenance and repairs by unqualified persons could be dangerous.
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Before installation check the appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly installed and earthed.
It is most important that this basic safety requirement is observed.
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the connection data (frequency and voltage) on the data plate corresponds to the household supply before connecting the appliance to mains supply. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety
of the appliance (eg. danger of overheating).
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been built in.
Do not open the casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. Warranty will also be voided.

INSTALLATION

SAFETY
Before connecting the appliance to the mains electricity supply make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) correspond with the mains electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt. Ensure that the power cord does not come into contact with any hot surfaces, if necessary protect the power cord with a barrier or insulating sleeve. The socket and on-off switch should be easily accessible after the appliance has been built in. The warming drawer may only be built in combination with those appliances quoted by Electrolux as being suitable. Electrolux cannot guarantee trouble-free operation if the appliance is operated in combination with appliances other than thouse quoted by Electrolux as being suitable. When building in the warming drawer in combination with another suitable appliance, the food warming drawer must be fitted above a fixed interim shelf in the housing unit. Please ensure that the housing unit can support both its weight and that of the other appliance. As the combination appliance is placed directly on top of the warming drawer once it is built in, an interim shelf is not necessary between the two appliances. The appliance must be built in so that the contents of the drawer can be seen. This is to avoid scalding from hot food spilling over. There must be enough space for the drawer to be pulled out fully. Use 4x appropriate screws to fix the warming drawer to the cabinet. Open the warming drawer and screw in the front corners.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally- responsible manner. This appliance is labelled in accordance with the European Directive 2012/19/EC concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (WEEE – waste electrical and electronic equipment).
