Warning and Safety instructions
7
Technical safety
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical
appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service
technician.
A damaged drawer can be dangerous. Always check for visible
signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the drawer can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electrical supply.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified
electrician.
Before connecting the warming drawer to the mains supply,
ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and
frequency) match the mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to
the warming drawer. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Do not connect the drawer to the mains electrical supply by a
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this drawer may only be used when it has
been built in.
This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
Never open the casing of the drawer.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.

Warning and Safety instructions
8
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the plug has been removed or the connection cable is not
supplied with a plug, the drawer must be connected to the mains
supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a
special connection cable of type H05RRF(rubber insulated),
available from Miele, in order to avoid a hazard.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the drawer must
be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
– the mains circuit breaker is switched off, or
– it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from
the socket. Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains
plug to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity
supply.
If the drawer is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door),
ensure that the door is never closed whilst the drawer is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause
subsequent damage to the drawer, the housing unit and the floor. Do
not close the door until the drawer has cooled down completely.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
Correct use
You could burn yourself on a hot drawer or on hot crockery.
Protect your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when
working with the hot appliance. Do not let them get wet or damp, as
this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with
the risk of scalding or burning yourself.
Do not store any plastic containers or inflammable objects in the
drawer. They could melt or catch fire when the appliance is switched
on, causing a fire hazard.
Due to the high temperatures radiated by the drawer, nearby
combustible objects can catch fire while the appliance is in use. Do
not use the warming drawer to heat the room.
Never replace the anti-slip mat supplied with the appliance with
paper kitchen towels or similar.
The telescopic runners can support a maximum load of 25kg.
Overloading or leaning or sitting on the drawer will damage the
telescopic runners.
The underside of the drawer gets hot when switched on. Be
careful not to touch it when the drawer is open.
The anti-slip mat is heat-resistant up to 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 drawer.
Items made of plastic or aluminium foil will melt at high
temperatures. When keeping food warm, use only heat-resistant
containers made of porcelain, glass, etc.
If liquids get into the appliance through the vents, it can cause a
short circuit. Take care when opening and closing the loaded drawer
so that liquids do not spill over.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
The "Keep food warm" function is designed to keep hot food
warm and not to warm up cold food. Ensure food is sufficiently hot
when placed inside the drawer.
Bacteria can develop in certain foods if the temperature is too low.
Make sure that you set a high enough temperature to keep food
warm.
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean the drawer.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.

Caring for the environment
11
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packaging
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites. Ensure that any plastic
wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of
babies and young children. Danger of
suffocation.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances. You are also responsible for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance prior to
disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.

Operation
19
Oven functions
The following functions are available:
– For warming cups and glasses
– For warming plates and dishes
– For keeping food warm
– For low temperature cooking
The last function selected is
automatically activated the next time
the drawer is switched on, and this is
shown in the display.
The appliance has a fan which
distributes the warm air evenly
throughout the drawer. The fan runs
– constantly when the "Warm
cups/glasses" and "Warm
plates/dishes" functions are in use.
– at intervals with the "Keep
food warm" and "Low
temperature cooking" functions.
The drawer can be used to keep food
warm at the same time as warming
plates and dishes. Use the "Keep
food warm" function for this.
Caution!
The plates and dishes will take
longer to warm up with this function
than in the "Warm plates/dishes"
function, but can get very hot.
Duration
Do not leave the drawer unattended
for too long in continuous operation
mode. Keeping food warm for a long
time can result in it drying out or
even self-igniting.
Your drawer is fitted with a safety
switch-off mechanism which
switches it off after a maximum of
12hours' continuous operation.
The drawer is set for continuous
operation mode (Exception: Low
temperature cooking).
A limited duration can be selected by
touching the sensor. One touch for 1
hour (1h), two touches for 2 hours (2h)
etc., up to a maximum of 4 hours.
Continuous operation is restored by
touching the sensor a fifth time.
Temperature settings
Each function has its own temperature
range. The factory default
recommended temperatures are printed
in bold. The temperature can be altered
in 5° steps by touching the sensor.
The last temperature selected is
automatically activated the next time
the drawer is switched on, and this is
shown in the display (Exception: Low
temperature cooking).

Keeping food warm
21
In order to ensure that the
temperature does not drop below the
minimum required for keeping food
warm (65°C), select the function
only.
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.
Select the "Keep food warm"
function.
Select the desired time setting.
Pre-heat the drawer for 15minutes to
ensure that it has reached the required
temperature for keeping food warm.
Whilst the appliance is heating up,
place the empty dishes in the drawer.
Remove the pre-heated dishes from
the drawer after 15minutes and fill
them with the hot food. Use oven
gloves to remove the dishes from the
drawer.
Then place the dishes in the drawer
and close it carefully to prevent any
liquid food from spilling.
Useful tips
To maintain your food's optimum quality
please note the following:
– 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 roasted or fried foods
which you want to keep crisp. These
types of food need to be kept warm
at a higher temperature.
– Cover liquids and food with a high
moisture content with a suitable lid or
heat-resistant foil to prevent moisture
escaping and condensing outside the
dish.
– 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. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time
as possible.
– We do not recommend food being
kept warm for too long, as it will
continue to cook.
– Food may cool down if the drawer is
opened and closed too often.
– Do not slam the drawer open or shut.
Liquids could spill over and get into
the vents or into the inner parts of the
drawer.

Heat crockery
24
Useful tips
– Distribute the crockery over the whole
area of the drawer. Stacks of plates
heat up more slowly than individual
pieces of crockery. If large stacks of
plates are unavoidable, place them at
the front of the drawer.
Use the rack (depending on model).
– Do not place large serving dishes
right up against the vents. They will
cover the warm air outlets, and the
crockery will not heat up evenly.
– For cups and glasses, only select the
function to ensure that the
maximum temperature (60°C) is not
exceeded.
– Heated crockery cools down very
quickly. Do not remove it from the
drawer until just before you need it.
Heating-up times
Various factors will affect the heating-
up times:
– The material and thickness of the
crockery
– Load size
– How the crockery is arranged
– The temperature setting
It is therefore not possible to state
precise times. However, the following
information can be used as a guide.
With the "Warm plates/dishes"
function, it takes approx.
– 30–35 minutes for 6 place settings to
heat up evenly.
– 40–45 minutes for 12 place settings
to heat up evenly.
As you use the plate warmer, you will
get to know which setting suits your
own needs best.
Capacity
The telescopic runners can support
25kg.
Overloading the drawer will damage
the runners.
The quantity that can be loaded will
depend to a great extent on the size
and weight of your crockery.
ESW 6129 / ESW 6229 / ESW 6229 X:
You can increase the load area by using
the rack supplied with the appliance.
Position the rack to suit. With two racks
you can increase the load area even
more by placing one rack on the left
and the other on the right. Another rack
can be obtained from Miele (see
"Optional accessories").

Low temperature cooking
27
Do not use the food probe from
a Miele steam combination oven or a
Miele oven in the food warming
drawer.
With low temperature cooking meat is
cooked at a low temperature over a
long period of time. Using this method,
meat loses less liquid as it is cooked
gently and so remains succulent and
tender.
This cooking method is particularly
suitable for large and tender pieces of
meat. The quality of the meat is of vital
importance for a good result.
For precision we recommend using a
proprietary food thermometer to
monitor the core temperature.
Core temperature
Food can be cooked in the warming
drawer up to a core temperature of
70°C. Meat which needs to be cooked
to a core temperature higher than 70 °C
cannot be cooked in the warming
drawer.
The core temperature indicates the
degree of doneness in the middle of a
piece of meat. The lower the core
temperature, the less well-done the
meat is in the middle:
– 45–50°C = rare
– 55–60 °C = medium
– 65 °C = well-done
Cooking duration
The cooking duration depends on the
size of the individual pieces of meat,
and can be between 1 and 6 hours.
Pre-heat the drawer for 15minutes to
ensure that the interior reaches the
required temperature.
Example: selected duration 1h
Actual operating time 1 hour 15
minutes.
Notes
– Use meat that has been properly
hung.
– The quality of the meat is of vital
importance for a good result.
– The meat must be at room
temperature. Remove it from the
refrigerator approx. 1hour before
cooking.
– Sear the meat on all sides over a high
heat on the cooktop.

Low temperature cooking
28
Using the Low temperature
cooking function.
Select the "Low Temperature"
function.
The drawer will pre-heat automatically
for 15minutes and then operate at the
preset temperature and duration, e.g.
85°C for 4hours (Setting for medium
sirloin joint, 1kg, approx. 3cm thick).
While the drawer is heating up, sear
the meat on all sides over a high heat
on the cooktop.
Put the meat in a heat-resistant dish.
Place the dish on the floor of the
drawer.
Do not use the food probe from
a Miele steam combination oven or a
Miele oven in the food warming
drawer.
If you wish to use a proprietary food
thermometer:
Push the food thermometer into the
meat so that the tip is in the centre.
Make sure that it does not come into
contact with bones or layers of fat as
these can cause a false reading.
If you wish to cook on a different
setting, please see the table on the
following pages.
Select the "Low Temperature"
function.
Select the desired temperature.
Select the desired duration.
Tips
– Meat can be carved straight from the
oven. It does not need to rest.
– Due to the low cooking and core
temperatures, meat can be kept
warm quite safely in the appliance
until it is served. This will not affect
results in any way.
– Serve the meat on warm plates to
stop it cooling too quickly.

Note: The warming drawer can only be
connected to the CVA 680x. It is not
permitted to be connected to other
coffee machines.
The warming drawer can be set to
come on automatically before your
Miele coffee machine to ensure your
cups are the perfect temperature for
your first cup of the day. A special
connection cable (available from Miele
as an optional accessory) is required for
this.
Please note that in coffee mode:
– The function cannot be altered.
– The duration cannot be altered.
– The safety switch-off mechanism is
deactivated.
Activating coffee mode
Coffee mode can only be activated
when the drawer is switched off.
Connect the drawer to the coffee
machine.
Touch the sensor.
Then touch the sensor.
Continue to touch both sensors until
both the 1h and 4h symbols in the
time display and the symbol light
up simultaneously.
Deactivating coffee mode
Touch the sensor.
Then touch the sensor.
Continue to touch both sensors until
all symbols have gone out.

Cleaning and care
36
Danger of injury!
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Never use a steam cleaning
appliance to clean the warming
drawer.
Unsuitable cleaning agents can
discolour and damage the surfaces
of the appliance. Only use a solution
of domestic washing-up liquid and
warm water applied with a soft
sponge or cloth.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Scratches on glass
surfaces may cause a breakage.
Remove any cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Allow the drawer to cool down to a
safe temperature before cleaning.
The drawer and accessories should
be cleaned and dried thoroughly after
each use.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive sponges and brushes,
e.g. pot scourers,
– sharp metal tools.

Cleaning and care
37
Cleaning the drawer front and
interior
The On/Off sensor must be kept
clean. Soiling and liquid on the sensor
could cause it to fail to react or to
switch the appliance on or off
unintentionally.
Remove all soiling using a solution of
hot water and washing-up liquid
applied with a sponge or use a clean,
damp microfibre cloth.
Wipe with clean water afterwards.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Cleaning the anti-slip mat
Do not wash the anti-slip mat in a
dishwasher or washing machine.
Never place the anti-slip mat in the
oven to dry.
Remove the anti-slip mat for
cleaning.
Clean the anti-slip mat by hand only,
using warm water and a little
washing-up liquid, and then dry with
a cloth.
Do not put the anti-slip mat back into
the drawer until it is completely dry.

Problem solving guide
38
With the aid of the following guide, minor problems can be easily corrected
without contacting Miele. If, after reading this guide, you can't remedy the problem
yourself, please call Miele (see back cover for details).
Please note, however, that a call-out charge will be applied to unnecessary service
visits where the problem could have been rectified as described in these operating
instructions.
Danger of injury! Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried
out by a suitably qualified and competent person.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. Miele
cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
Do not attempt to open the casing of the appliance yourself.
Problem Possible cause and remedy
The drawer does not
heat up.
The appliance is not correctly plugged in and
switched on at the mains socket.
Insert the plug and switch on at the socket.
The circuit breaker is defective or has tripped.
Reset the circuit breaker in the mains fuse box
(minimum fuse rating - see data plate). If, after
resetting the circuit breaker in the mains fuse box
and switching the appliance back on, the
appliance will still not heat up, contact a qualified
electrician or Miele.
The food is not hot
enough.
The function for keeping food warm is not
selected.
Select the correct function.
The temperature setting is too low.
Check that the doors have been closed properly.
The vents have been covered up.
Ensure that the air can circulate freely.
The food is too hot. The function for keeping food warm is not
selected.
Select the correct function.
The temperature setting is too high.
Select a lower temperature.

Problem solving guide
39
Problem Possible cause and remedy
The crockery is not
warm enough.
The function for warming plates and dishes is not
selected.
Select the correct function.
The temperature setting is too low.
Check that the doors have been closed properly.
The vents have been covered up.
Ensure that the air can circulate freely.
The crockery has not been allowed to heat up for a
sufficiently long time.
Various factors will affect how long the crockery
will take to heat up (see "Warming crockery").
The crockery is too hot. The "Warm plates/dishes" or "Warm cups/
glasses" function is not selected.
Select the correct function.
The temperature setting is too high.
Select a lower temperature.
A noise can be heard
when the drawer is in
use.
The noise is caused by the fan which distributes the
heat evenly throughout the drawer. The fan operates
at intervals when the "Keep food warm" and
"Low temperature cooking" functions are being
used. This is not a fault.

Optional accessories
40
Miele offers a range of useful
accessories, as well as cleaning and
conditioning products for your
appliance.
These products can be ordered from
the Miele online shop.
They can also be ordered directly from
Miele (see end of this booklet for
contact details).

Safety instructions for installation
41
Incorrect installation can result in personal injury and damage
to property.
Before connecting the warming drawer to the mains supply,
ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and
frequency) match the mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to
the warming drawer. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The socket and on-off switch should be easily accessible after the
drawer has been installed.
The drawer may only be installed in combination with those
appliances quoted by Miele as being suitable. If the drawer is used in
combination with other appliances, the warranty will be invalidated
as trouble-free operation cannot be guaranteed.
The base on which the drawer and the combination appliance are
fitted must be fixed in place and must support the weight of both
appliances.
When building in the combination appliance, it is essential to
follow the instructions given in the operating and installation
instructions supplied with the combination appliance.
The drawer must be installed in such a way that
– the contents of crockery can be seen when opened. This is to
avoid scalding from hot food spilling over.
– there is enough space for the drawer to be pulled out fully.

Installation notes
42
The combination appliance is placed on
top of the drawer without the need for
an interim shelf.
The drawer is available in two models
which differ in height. The niche size
required is determined by the aggregate
dimensions of the warming drawer and
the combination appliance.
All dimensions in this instruction
booklet are given in mm.
