Keeping Food Warm - Miele ESW 47.2 Operating And Installation Manual

This function is for keeping food warm that has just been
cooked, i.e. food that is still hot. It is not for reheating food
that has gone cold.
– To ensure that the temperature does not drop below the
minimum required for keeping food warm (65°C), select
the 2 function only.
– Pre-heat the drawer thoroughly for 15 minutes to ensure
that it has reached the required temperature.
– Whilst the appliance is heating up, place the empty dishes
in it to warm them up. Then place the hot food into the
pre-heated dishes.
– Do not cover roast or fried foods which you want to keep
crisp. These types of food need to be kept warm at a
higher temperature.
– Cover food with a high moisture content, liquids and foods
which can develop a skin, with aluminium foil or a plate.
– To avoid spillages, do not overfill dishes.
– Freshly cooked food is hotter than food which is being kept
warm. Serve food which is being kept warm on pre-heated
plates.
– Nutrients are lost when food is cooked, and continue to
diminish when food is kept warm. The longer food is kept
warm for, the greater the loss of nutrients.
– We do not recommend food being kept warm for too long,
as it will continue to cook.
– Do not slam the drawer open or shut. Liquids could spill
over and get into the vents.
– Food may cool down if the drawer is opened and shut too
often.
