Contents

This appliance conforms to current

safety requirements. Inappropriate

use can, however, lead to personal

injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and

damage to the appliance, please

read these instructions carefully

before using it for the first time. They

contain important notes on

installation, safety, use and

maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe

place and ensure that new users are

familiar with the contents. Pass them

on to any future owner.

Correct application

The appliance is intended for

domestic use to cook food, and in

particular to bake, roast, grill, cook,

defrost and dry fruit. Any other usage is

at the owner's risk and could be

dangerous. The manufacturer cannot

be held liable for damage resulting

from incorrect or improper use or

operation.

This appliance is not intended for

use by persons (including children)

with reduced physical, sensory or

mental capabilities, or lack of

experience and knowledge, unless they

are supervised whilst using it, or have

been shown how to use it correctly by a

person responsible for their safety.

Warning and safety instructions

Safety with children

This appliance is not toy! To prevent

the risk of injury do not let children play

with the appliance or its controls.

Older children may only use the

oven when its operation has been

clearly explained to them and they are

able to use it safely, recognising the

dangers of misuse.

Great care should be taken to

ensure that children do not touch the

appliance when it is being used.

Children's skin is far more sensitive to

high temperatures than that of adults.

External parts of the oven such as the

door glass, control panel and the vent

become quite hot.

The oven door gets much hotter

during pyrolytic operation than during

normal use.

Make sure children cannot touch the

oven whilst a pyrolytic programme is

running. Danger of burning.

Technical safety

Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a

suitably qualified and competent

person in strict accordance with current

national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified

persons could be dangerous. The

manufacturer cannot be held liable for

unauthorised work.

Before installation, check the

appliance for visible signs of damage.

Do not install and use a damaged

appliance. A damaged appliance could

be dangerous.

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.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable

for the consequences of an inadequate

earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Warning and safety instructions

Before connecting the appliance,

make sure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and connected

load) match the mains electricity

supply.

This data must correspond in order to

avoid the risk of damage to the

appliance. Consult a competent person

if in doubt.

Do not connect the appliance to the

mains electricity supply by a multi-

socket unit or an extension lead. These

do not guarantee the required safety of

the appliance (e.g. danger of

overheating).

For safety reasons, this appliance

may only be used when it has been

built in.

Never open the housing of the

appliance.

Tampering with electrical connections

or components and mechanical parts is

highly dangerous to the user and can

cause operational faults.

While the appliance is under

guarantee, repairs should only be

undertaken by a service technician

authorised by the manufacturer.

Otherwise the guarantee will be

invalidated.

During installation, maintenance and

repair work, the appliance must be

disconnected from the mains electricity

supply. It is only completely isolated

from the electricity supply when:

–

the mains fuse is disconnected,

–

the screw-out fuse is removed (in

countries where this is applicable),

–

it is switched off at the isolator.

Ensure that current is not supplied to

the appliance until after maintenance

or repair work has been carried out.

Faulty components must only be

replaced by genuine Miele original

spare parts. The manufacturer can only

guarantee the safety of the appliance

when Miele replacement parts are

used.

If the supply cord is damaged, it

must be replaced by a Miele approved

service technician to avoid a hazard.

This appliance may only be used in

mobile installations such as ships,

caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk

assessment of the installation has been

carried out by a suitably qualified

engineer.

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation by

cockroaches or other vermin, pay

particular attention to keeping the

appliance and its surroundings in a

clean condition at all times. Any

damage which may be caused by

cockroaches or other vermin will not be

covered by the guarantee.

Warning and safety instructions

Correct use

Caution. Danger of burning.

High temperatures are produced by

the oven.

Use oven gloves when placing food

in the oven, turning or removing it and

when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a

hot oven. Be very careful that you do

not burn yourself on the top heating /

grill element.

Never leave the appliance

unattended when cooking with oil or

fats, as these are a fire hazard if

allowed to overheat.

Do not exceed the recommended

grilling times when using the "Full

grill Y", "Economy grill Z" and "Fan

grill \" functions. Excessively long

grilling times can lead to food drying

out and burning, or could even cause it

to catch fire.

Do not use the "Full grill Y",

"Economy grill Z" or "Fan grill \"" to

finish baking par-cooked rolls or bread

or to dry flowers or herbs. Fire hazard.

Use "Fan plus U" or "Conventional V"

instead.

If using alcohol in your recipes, high

temperatures can cause the alcohol to

vaporise and even to ignite on the hot

heating elements.

Alcohol should be burnt off before the

dish is placed in the oven to avoid this

danger.

Cover any food which is left in the

oven to be kept hot. Any moisture in the

food could lead to corrosion damage in

the oven. This also prevents the food

from drying out.

If you wish to complete a cooking

process using the residual heat in the

oven, leave the function selector at the

position set and turn the temperature

selector to the lowest setting. Do not

switch the appliance off until the food

has been removed. Increased moisture

in the oven could cause condensation

to form which could lead to

– corrosion in the oven compartment.

– damage to the control panel, worktop

and surrounding kitchen furniture.

Warning and safety instructions

Do not line the floor of the oven with

aluminium foil when using

"Conventional V"/"Bottom heat X"/

"Intensive bake O"/"Rapid heat-

up S".

This would cause a build-up of heat

which could cause damage to the floor

of the oven.

For this reason do not place a dish, tin

or baking tray directly on the oven floor.

If using a tray made by a different

manufacturer, make sure that there is a

gap of at least 6 cm between the

bottom of the tray and the floor of the

oven.

Never add cold water to food on a

hot universal tray or baking tray or

directly onto food in a hot oven. The

steam created could cause serious

burns or scalding and the sudden

change in temperature can damage the

enamel.

Always ensure that food is suitably

cooked or reheated.

Some foods may contain micro-

organisms which are only destroyed by

thorough cooking at temperatures over

70 °C for a minimum of 10 minutes.

Therefore when cooking or reheating

foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly

important that food is fully cooked

through. If in doubt select a longer

cooking or reheating time.

It is important that the heat is allowed to

spread evenly throughout the food

being cooked. This can be achieved

by stirring and/or turning the food

during cooking.

If using plastic containers for

cooking, these must be declared by the

manufacturer as being suitable for use

in an oven. Other types of plastic

containers melt at high temperatures,

and could damage the oven.

Do not heat up unopened tins or jars

of food in the oven. Pressure can build

up and they may explode, resulting in

injury or damage.

Do not push pots and pans around

on the oven floor, as this could damage

the surface.

Do not lean or sit on an open oven

door, or place heavy items on it. Make

sure that nothing gets trapped between

the door and the oven compartment.

This could damage the oven.

The oven door can support a maximum

load of 15 kg.

Do not use the appliance to heat up

the room. Due to the high temperatures

radiated, objects near the appliance

could catch fire.

Warning and safety instructions

Accessories

Only use genuine Miele spare parts

and accessories with this appliance. If

spare parts or accessories from other

manufacturers are used, this will

invalidate the guarantee, and Miele

cannot accept liability.

Remove all accessories as well as

the runners and any extra accessories

such as Flexi-Clip runners from the

oven interior before starting the

pyrolytic cleaning process. The high

temperatures needed for pyrolysis will

damage the accessories.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by non-

compliance with these Warning and

Safety instructions.

Warning and safety instructions

Disposal of the packing

material

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for

disposal, and can normally be

recycled.

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.

Rather than just throwing these

materials away, please ensure they are

offered for recycling.

Disposing of your old

appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances

often contain materials which, if

handled or disposed of incorrectly

could be potentially hazardous to

human health and to the environment.

They are, however, essential for the

correct functioning of your appliance.

Please do not therefore dispose of it

with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre or contact your dealer for

advice. Ensure that it presents no

danger to children while being stored

for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected

from the mains electricity supply be a

competent person.

Guide to the appliance

Oven controls

In addition to operating the various

cooking programmes to bake, roast

and grill the controls also offer the

following:

–

a time of day display,

–

a minute minder,

–

a timer to automatically switch

cooking programmes on and off,

–

settings can be customised.

Safety features

System lock

The system lock 0 prevents the oven

from being used unintentionally by

children, for example. See "System

lock".

Safety switch-off

Safety switch-off is triggered

automatically if the oven is operated for

an unusually long period of time.

The period of time will depend on the

particular oven function being used.

The oven will switch off automatically

and "Fault 55" will appear in the display.

The oven can be used again immedi

ately after switching it off and back on.

Cooling system

A cooling fan will come on

automatically when a cooking

programme is started. The cooling fan

mixes hot air from the oven cavity with

cool room air before venting it out into

the kitchen through vents located

between the appliance door and the

control panel.

The cooling fan will continue to run for a

while after the oven has been switched

off to prevent any humidity building up

in the oven, on the control panel or on

the oven housing unit.

When the temperature in the oven has

fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will

switch off automatically.

Door lock for pyrolytic operation

For safety reasons the door is locked as

soon as the pyrolytic cleaning

programme is started. After the

pyrolytic programme has finished, the

door will remain locked until the

temperature in the oven has fallen

below 280°C.

Pyrolytic cleaning

The oven interior can be kept clean by

using the "Pyrolytic ^" function.

The oven interior is heated up to

approx. 460 °C. Any residual soiling is

broken down and reduced to ash by

the high temperatures.

See "Cleaning and care" for more

information.

Features

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated

with PerfectClean enamelling:

–

Runners,

–

Baking tray,

–

Universal tray,

–

Anti-splash insert (if present) and

–

Rack

PerfectClean enamelled surfaces have

very good anti-stick properties and are

much easier to keep clean than

conventional enamel, if cleaned

regularly.

See "Cleaning and care" for more

information.

Energy efficiency rating

according to EN 50304

This appliance is rated energy

efficiency class A in accordance with

EN 50304.

Tests were carried out using "Fan

plus U".

Accessories

The following accessories are supplied

with this oven.

These and other accessories are also

available to order from the Miele Spare

Parts Department, your Dealer or via

the internet on www.miele-shop.com.

Baking tray, universal tray and rack

The baking tray, universal tray and rack

are inserted into the oven between the

two rails of a shelf runner.

The trays and rack have non-tip safety

notches in the middle which prevent

them being pulled right out when they

only need to be partially pulled out.

The trays and rack can then only be

taken out of the oven by raising them

upwards and then pulling them out.

If you are using a tray with the rack on

top, insert the tray between the rails of

a shelf runner and the rack will sit on

top of it.

Features

Anti-splash insert (depending on

model)

The anti-splash insert should be placed

in the universal tray when grilling or

roasting.

The juices from the food being cooked

collect under the anti-splash tray. This

prevents them from spitting and making

the oven dirty. The juices can then be

used for making gravy and sauces.

Handle (depending on model)

The handle makes it easier to take the

universal tray, baking tray and rack out

of the oven, or to put them into it. The

two prongs at the top go inside the tray

or above the rack, and the U-shaped

supports underneath.

Features
