Functions

You can use the warming drawer to warm crockery (plates, cups, bowls, etc.) or food, or keep them
warm. The drawer can hold up to 15 kg.
Please remember that anything you want to heat up or keep warm in the warming drawer may be very
hot. The touchable components or surfaces of the drawer itself can also get very hot. To protect against
burns, always use an oven glove or pot holder during use.

Pre-warming crockery

Place the crockery in the warming drawer and switch it on. Set the control dial to 6.
Close the warming drawer and wait until the crockery has reached the required temperature.
Depending on the quantity and size of the crockery and the temperature set, the time needed for all
items to reach the same temperature can vary.
To end the warming process: open the drawer and turn the control dial to minimum. Turn the appliance off
using the on/off switch.

Keeping food warm

You can keep food warm in the warming drawer. Do not place pans or pots onto the anti-slip mat directly
from the oven or hob, as this might cause damage. Allow the pans or pots to cool to below 80° C, or mov e
the food to a cool container, such as a glass dish.
When the food has stopped boiling and is barely still steaming, it is at the right temperature to put in
the drawer.
It is advisable to preheat the drawer for about 5-10 minutes before using it to keep food warm.
When keeping foods such as meat, fish, vegetables, side dishes, soups, sauces, etc. hot, turn the
control dial to the maximum 9 setting.

Thawing frozen foods

You can use the warming drawer to thaw/heat up frozen foods.
Place the food on a plate or in a glass dish. Switch the drawer on and set the control dial to about 3.
Leave the food in the drawer until it has thawed to the required extent.
