IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Technical safety
Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by
a Miele authorized service technician in accordance with national
and local safety regulations and the provided installation
instructions. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department for
examination, repair or adjustment. Repairs and other work by
unauthorized persons could be dangerous and may void the
warranty.
Do not carry or lift the range by the oven door handle or the
control panel!
Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work may only be performed by a qualified technician.
A damaged warming drawer can be dangerous. Always check for
visible signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the range can only be guaranteed if
it is connected to the public power supply.
The electrical safety of the range can only be guaranteed when it
is properly grounded. Compliance with this essential safety
requirement is absolutely mandatory. If in any doubt, please have
the building's wiring system inspected by a qualified electrician.
Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been
installed correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified
technician.
For safety reasons, the warming drawer may only be used when it
has been fully installed.
To avoid damaging the range, make sure that the connection data
(voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the
building's power supply before connecting the appliance.
When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range
to electricity. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the
required level of appliance safety.
This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the warming drawer will endanger
your safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Do not open the casing of the warming drawer under any
circumstances.
Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorized service
technician will void the warranty.
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the
safety of the appliance.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven
lighting is broken (see "Frequently asked questions"), the range must
be completely disconnected from the household electricity supply.
The gas supply must be shut off. Ensure that this is the case by:
– removing the fuse,
– "tripping" the circuit breaker, or
– unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord.
– Shut off the gas supply and, if necessary, disconnect the range
from the gas line. Installation and maintenance of the gas
connection must be performed by qualified installers, service
agencies or gas providers.
If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to
the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until
the appliance has completely cooled down.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not install kitchen cabinets above the range, since reaching
over a hot stovetop to access the cabinets can result in burns. If it is
necessary to install cabinets, you can reduce the risk of burns by
installing a range hood that extends at least 4 3/4" (12 cm) past the
bottom of the cabinets.
Proper use
You can burn yourself on a hot warming drawer. When using the
appliance, protect your hands by wearing heat-resistant pot holders.
Only use dry pot holders. Wet or damp textiles conduct heat more
effectively and produce steam, which poses a burn hazard.
Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear
proper apparel while operating the appliance.
Fire hazard! Do not store any plastic containers or flammable
objects in the warming drawer. They can meld or catch fire when the
appliance is switched on.
Due to the high temperatures radiated by the warming drawer,
nearby flammable objects can catch fire while the appliance is in
use. Do not use the warming drawer to heat the room.
Never use paper towels or other similar objects in place of the
non-slip mat supplied with the appliance.
The maximum load capacity of the telescopic drawer rails is 55
lbs (25 kg). If you overload the warming drawer or lean/stand on the
drawer when it is open, you will damage the rails.
Do not use the warming drawer to heat food in closed containers,
such as cans or sealed jars.
Pressure will build up in the container and cause it to explode.
The underside of the warming drawer gets hot when the
appliance is in use. Be careful not to touch it when the drawer is
open.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cookware made of plastic or aluminum foil will melt at high
temperatures. When keeping food warm, use only heat-resistant
cookware made of porcelain, glass, etc.
Liquids that get inside the warming drawer can cause the
appliance to short-circuit. Open and close a loaded drawer carefully
to prevent liquids from spilling.
The "Keeping food warm" mode is to be used for keeping hot
dishes warm, not for heating up cold food. Make sure that any food
placed in the appliance has a high enough temperature.
In some foods, bacterial growth may occur if the temperature is
too low. Set the appliance to an adequate warming temperature.
The non-slip mat is heat-resistant up to 395°F (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 warming
drawer.
Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing
agent or foam fire extinguisher.
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the warming drawer.
The steam may reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not clean the non-slip mat in the dishwasher or washing
machine. Never place it in the oven to dry!

19
Keeping food warm
Tips
Do not allow the warming drawer to
fall below the minimum required
temperature keeping food warm
(150°F/65°C).
Use only the "Keeping food warm"
mode to ensure that the
minimum temperature is maintained.
– Place the hot food in pre-warmed
dishes. To preheat dishes, place
them in the drawer while it is being
preheated.
– Cover roasted or fried foods that are
to remain crispy. Use a higher
temperature to keep this type of food
warm.
This operating mode is designed to
keep food warm immediately after it
has been cooked, i.e. when it is still hot.
It is not intended for reheating food that
has gone cold!
– Using aluminum foil or a plate, cover
any liquid or very moist foods on
which a skin can form.
Select the mode.
– To avoid spilling the food, do not
overfill dishes.
Select the desire duration.
– Freshly cooked food is hotter than
food which has been kept warm.
Serve food that has been kept warm
on preheated plates.
Preheat the appliance for 15 minutes
to ensure that the interior has
reached the necessary temperature.
Place the dishes in the drawer while
the appliance preheats.
– Foods begin to lose their nutrients
during the cooking process and
continue to do so while being kept
warm. The longer food is kept warm,
the greater the loss of nutrients.
The dishes will get hot.
Use ovpot holders when handling
hot dishes.
– We do not recommend keeping food
warm for too long, as it will continue
to cook.
After 15 minutes, remove the
preheated dishes from the warming
drawer and fill them with the hot
food.
– The food may cool down if the
drawer is opened frequently.
Place the dishes in the drawer and
close it carefully to prevent liquid
foods from spilling.

Warming dishes
Tips
Warming times
– Distribute plates and dishes over the
whole area of the drawer whenever
possible. Stacks of plates heat up
more slowly than individual pieces. If
it is not possible to avoid large stacks
of plates, place them at the front of
the drawer.
Various factors will affect the warming
times:
– The material and thickness of the
dish
– The amount of dishes placed in the
drawer
– Do not place large serving dishes in
front of the air vents in an upright
position. This will block the warm air
outlets, and the plates and dishes will
not warm evenly.
– The arrangement of the dishes in the
drawer
– The temperature setting
Due to these factors, it is not possible
to provide exact warming times. The
following information can be used as a
guide:
– For cups and glasses, only select the
"Warming cups and glasses" mode
to ensure that the maximum
temperature (140°F/60°C) is not
exceeded.
In the mode, it will take
approximately
– Warmed dishes and plates cool down – 30 - 35 minutes to evenly warm 6
rapidly. Do not remove them from the
warming drawer until you are ready to
use them.
