(depending on the model)
Safety instructions for drawer installation
IMPORTANT: The drawer (applicable for
both models) must be immediately fixed to
the cabinet, complying with the following
instructions. Do not install the combined
electrical appliance provided for, before fixing
the drawer to the cabinet.
Spacers:
fix the drawer as shown in figures 1 or 2
(depending on the model)
Before connecting the appliance to the power
supply, compare the connection data (voltage and
frequency) given on the dataplate with that of the
electrical mains.
The data must match, otherwise the appliance
could become damaged.
In case of doubts, contact a qualified technician.
Make sure the socket can be easily accessed even
after the appliance has been fitted.
The dish warmer can only be fitted in combination
with other appliances not weighing more than 40 kg
and provided with adequate cooling ventilation.
Otherwise, the right to the warranty is invalidated,
since correct use cannot be guaranteed.
For combined appliance installation comply with
the instructions given in the relevant use and
installation handbook.
Fitting and installation of this appliance must only be
carried out by qualified personnel who guarantee
that the requirements for safe use are met.
Important: The coffee machine or the combined

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Contact a qualified technician to carry out the
appliance electrical connection.
Important: Before connecting the drawer to the
domestic power supply to check its operation,
always make sure the drawer power cable is
correctly fitted and NOT squashed or caught under
or behind the drawer or a combined appliance.
Important: Power cable replacement must be
made with a cable having the same characteristics
as that supplied by the Manufacturer (type H05RRF, 3x1 mm2 or higher) and carried out by the AfterSales Service or a qualified technician.
Before connecting the appliance to the power
supply, make sure that the technical specifications
(voltage: V and frequency: Hz) given on the rating
plate match those of the power mains.
In case of doubt, contact a qualified technician.
If the plug is removed from the power cable, contact
a qualified technician for fitting and connecting the
appliance. Contact an electrician aware of the local
regulations and the electricity company's regulations,
ensuring that the work is carried out in compliance
with the same.
Important: Make sure the appliance is connected
to an approved earth wire, to guarantee electrical
safety. If necessary, have the system checked by a
specialised technician.
The Manufacturer declines any liability for injury
and damage due to the lack or interruption of the
earth wire.
Important: The earth connection is
compulsory by law.
If the appliance is connected to the power supply by
means of an extension cord, make sure the cord
and connection are insulated against moisture.
The appliance is designed to be used only when
correctly fitted.
Never open the appliance casing. In case of contact
with live wires or if the electrical and mechanical
structure of the appliance is modified, an appliance
fault may occur when it is used.
The appliance is disconnected from the power
supply in the following cases:
- the electrical system main switch is turned off.
- The safety switch is turned off.
- The appliance is unplugged.
Grip the plug and not power cable to unplug the
appliance.
It is advisable to connect the appliance to the power
supply by means of a socket;
this will facilitate technical assistance operations, if
necessary.
Ensure that the socket is accessible even once the
appliance has been fitted.
If connection is not made by means of an electrical
socket, contact an electrician aware of the local
regulations and the electricity company's regulations,
ensuring that the work is carried out in compliance
with the same.
If the socket is no longer accessible after fitting the
appliance or if a fixed connection is provided for, a
separation device for each pole must be arranged
by the installer.
Switches with contact opening of at least 3mm are
valid separation devices.
The specifications necessary for connection are
given on the dataplate. These specifications must
match those of the power supply.
The Manufacturer declines any liability for
injury or damage due to incorrect installation,
improper, wrong and unreasonable use of the
appliance.
The Manufacturer also declines any liability for
damage (e.g. electric shock) caused by the
lack or interruption of the earth wire.
After installation, all the parts of the appliance must
be insulated, to prevent accidents during operation.
If the installation, maintenance or repair works are
not carried out correctly, there may be risks for the
user. The Manufacturer declines any liability for
damage or injury in such cases.
During the warranty period, repairs must only be
carried out by the authorised technical service,
otherwise the warranty right is lost.
Installation, repair and cleaning operations must
only be carried out after ensuring that the appliance
is disconnected from the power supply.

CARE AND CLEANING
Important: Never use high pressure water or
steam cleaners.
Also, do not use: detergents containing soda,
acids or chlorides, abrasive detergents (in powder
or lotion), abrasive sponges (e.g. steel wool) or
sponges containing residuals of abrasive detergents,
descaling detergents, dishwasher detergents, oven
sprays.
Warming drawer exterior
• Clean with a damp cloth. If it is very dirty, add a
few drops of dish washing detergent to the
water. Dry with a dry cloth.
• Do not use corrosive or abrasive detergents, as
they can create dull areas.
If any of these products accidentally comes into
contact with the warming drawer, immediately
clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
• Slight colour differences on the front of the
appliance are due to the use of different
materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Aluminium front panel (depending on the
model)
• Use a mild detergent and a soft window cleaning
cloth or a microfibre cloth that does not leave
fibres on the surface. Wipe horizontally, without
pressing.
• Do not use corrosive products, hard sponges or
rough cloths for cleaning. Clean the aluminium
surfaces with a dry cloth.
18
Antislip drawer base (depending on the
model)
• The antislip drawer base can be pulled out to
clean the bottom of the drawer.
The base can be washed by hand with hot water
and a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly.
Refit the antislip base in the drawer only when
completely dry.
Vitroceramic drawer base (depending on
the model)
It is advisable to clean the bottom of the drawer
after every use, making sure to allow it to cool. In
this way grime will not accumulate and cleaning is
easier.
• Use a clean cloth, absorbent paper and dish
hand-wash detergent, or specific products for
cleaning the vitroceramic top.
• Remove stubborn cooking grime with specific
products.
• Remove any food residuals left on the
vitroceramic top; do not leave to harden.
• Foods with a high sugar-content (coffee, fruit
juice, jam, etc.) that have boiled over or any sugar
stains due to cooking must be immediately
removed.
• Do not use abrasive products, bleach, oven
cleaning sprays or steel wool.
It is advisable to periodically treat the vitroceramic
with the special waxes available on the market.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
If the dishes or food (depending on the model)
are not warm enough, make sure:
• the appliance is on
• the right temperature has been set
• the heat openings are not covered by large dishes
or soup-plates
• the dishes have been warmed for a long enough
time.
Different factors affect the warming time, e.g.:
- the material and thickness of the dishes, the load
amount and its arrangement, temperature
setting.
- Optimum dish warming times are subjective,
therefore it is advisable to carry out trials to
define them according to needs.
AFTER-SALES SERVICE
Before calling the After-Sales Service:
1. Try to solve the problem on your own,
according to the points described in
"Troubleshooting Guide”.
2. Switch the appliance off and then on again it to
see if the problem has been eliminated.
For the following problems, contact a qualified
technician or the After-Sales Service.
If the dishes are not warmed, make sure:
• the main power switch is on;
• the power cable is not disconnected or damaged.
If the dishes become too hot:
• the temperature controller may be faulty.
The On/Off switch does not light up when the
appliance is switched on:
• the switch control light is faulty.
If the fault persists after the above checks,
contact the nearest After-Sales Service.
Always specify:
• a brief description of the fault;
• the type and exact model of the warming
drawer;
• the Service number (number after the word
