Keep these instructions with your appliance. If the appliance should be sold or given to another person, be sure that these instructions are supplied with it.

Please read these recommendations before installing and using the warming drawer. They have been drafted for your safety and that of others.

This warming drawer has been designed for use by private persons in their homes. It is intended exclusively for warming dishes. Any other use is prohibited and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable in the event of non-complying use.

Do not use this appliance until it has been installed in the cabinet. Only full installation of the drawer prevents any risk of contact with powered components.

Never open the body of the appliance.

The inside of the drawer can heat up 70^ depending on the temperature chosen and the duration of use. Use oven gloves or hot-pan holders to remove the hot dishes from the warming drawer.

Do not use the warming drawer to keep food or drinks hot or to reheat or cook food or drinks. The moisture in the food or drinks could cause corrosion of the appliance.

We do not advise standing or sitting on the open drawer; this would cause damage to the telescopic rails. The maximum load of the drawer is 20kg .

We do not advise the use or storage of any plastic goods or inflammable objects in the appliance. They could melt or catch fire when the warming drawer is switched on.

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that the wires of your electric installation have sufficient diameter to supply power to the appliance normally. The fuse for the installation should be 10 amps.

It is necessary to provide a bipolar cut-off device in the power supply circuit, where the opening of the contacts is more than 3mm .

The electric connection should be done before the appliance is set in the cabinet.

The drawer should be connected by a (standard) power cord with three 1 mm² couplers (1 single phase + 1 N + ground) to the 220-240 V single phase power supply via an electric circuit corresponding to the standard CEI 60083 or complying with the installation rules. The protective wire (green/yellow) corresponds to ground on the appliance and should be connected to the ground of the installation.

In the case of a connection via an electric outlet, the outlet should be accessible after the installation of the appliance.

The neutral on the heating drawer (blue wire) should be connected to neutral on the power supply.

WARNING : If the warming drawer malfunctions in any way, unplug the appliance or remove the fuse corresponding to the sector where the warming drawer is hooked up.

INFORMATION BEFORE USE

The appliance should be used exclusively to preheat crockery.

The appliance uses a hot air system to heat the dishes. A fan distributes the heat from the resistor in the drawer. The dishes are heated rapidly and uniformly by circulation of hot air.

A protective grid prevents the dishes from coming into contact with the resistor or the fan.

The floor of the drawer is covered with an antiskid mat that prevents the dishes from sliding when the drawer is opened.

For model DWD1194GX: the drawer can be opened and closed by pressing lightly in the middle of the drawer front.

CONTROLS

The controls include a temperature knob and a Start/Stop switch. These are only visible when the drawer is open.

When the drawer is closed, the signal light on the front of the drawer comes on when the appliance is running.

SETTING THE CONTROLS

• Put the dishes in the drawer.
• Select the temperature.
• Set the timer (minimum 10 minutes).

The signal light shows that the power is on.

• Close the drawer.

When the timer runs out, the hot air heating system stops and a bell rings.

To turn the bell off, turn the knob to 0.

SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE

The temperature knob adjusts the temperature between 30 and 70^ .

The most appropriate temperatures for the types of dishes used are as follows :

• 40^ C : for cups or glasses. Hot drinks generally stay hotter for longer when poured into cups or glasses preheated to this temperature, without danger of burns when people drink from.
• 60^ C : for plates and dishes. Food served on preheated plates or dishes generally maintain their heat for longer and the dishes can be touched without burning the hands.

PREHEATING TIME

Preheating time depends on several factors :

• the thickness of the dishes and the material they are made from
• the load
• disposal of the load
• temperature selection

Therefore, we cannot give heating times that will correspond systematically.

However, as a guideline, here are a few hints :

For a temperature setting of 60^ C , heated evenly:

• dishes for a meal for six take approximately 30 ~min .
• dishes for a meal for twelve take approximately 40 ~min .

After using the drawer a few times, you will know for yourself how long it takes to heat your dishes.
