Description of the appliance

Features

Electronic controls

In addition to operating the various cooking programmes to bake, roast and grill the electronic controls also offer the following features:

Clock display

Minute minder

Timer to automatically switch cooking programmes off, or on and off with automatic use made of residual heat

Settings can be customised.

Safety features

You can activate a system lock, to prevent the appliance being used unintentionally. See "System lock" for details.

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 "F 55" will appear in the display. The oven can be used again immediately after switching it off and back on.

Cooling system

As soon as the oven is switched on, a cooling fan is automatically engaged. 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.

Pyrolytic self-cleaning programme

The oven interior can be kept clean by using the Pyrolytic . cleaning programme.

This programme heats the oven interior up to 460 °C. Any residual soiling is broken down and reduced to ash by the high temperatures.

For safety reasons the door is locked at the beginning of the pyrolytic programme.

This oven offers three programme durations for pyrolytic cleaning.

PY 1 lasting approx. 2 hours 15 mins

PY 2 lasting approx. 2 hours 35 mins

PY 3 lasting approx. 2 hours 55 mins

For safety reasons the door will remain locked until the temperature in the oven cavity has dropped below 280 °C.

See "Cleaning and care" for more information.

Description of the appliance

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated with PerfectClean enamelling:

Runners

Baking tray

Grill pan

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.

Door contact switch

There is a door contact switch located centrally underneath the control panel. If the door is opened during operation, the door contact switch causes the oven heating, and the fan, depending on which oven function is operating, to switch off.

This helps reduce the amount of heat lost from the oven cavity, e.g. when checking food.

Vented oven door

The oven door is made up of a total of four panels. There is an opening at the top and bottom of these.

During operation cool air is passed through the oven door to keep the outer panel cool and safe to touch.

If necessary the oven door can be dismantled for cleaning. See "Cleaning and Care".

Retractable controls

All controls are retractable.

Press them to release or retract them.

Energy efficiency rating according to EN 50304

These appliances are rated energy efficiency class A in accordance with EN 50304. Tests were carried out using Gentle bake.

Description of the appliance

Accessories

Roasting filter

The following accessories are supplied with this oven.

These and other accessories are also available to order from the Miele Spare Parts Dept. or your Miele Dealer. See "Extra accessories" further on in this booklet for more details.

Baking tray, grill pan and rack

The baking tray, grill pan and rack are fitted with non-tip safety notches which prevent them being pulled right out when they only need to be partially pulled out.

When pushing the tray, pan and rack back in, always ensure that the safety notches are at the rear of the oven (see illustration).

The tray, pan and rack can then only be taken out of the oven by raising them upwards and then pulling them out.

The roasting filter must be fitted in front of the fan when cooking anything fatty, or where food is likely to splatter, e.g. when open roasting or grilling meat.

The droplets of fat caught up in the circulating air are deposited on the roasting filter. This helps to keep the oven and the area behind the interior back panel cleaner.

Do not use the roasting filter when baking. This would increase the times needed for baking and give uneven browning results.

Slide opener

Use the slide opener for lifting off the light cover.

8

Description of the appliance

Anti-splash tray

(depending on model)

The anti-splash tray should be placed in the deep-sided grill pan 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 baking tray, grill pan and rack out of the oven, or to put them into it.

The two prongs at the top go inside the pan, rack or tray and the U-shaped supports underneath.

9

Caring for the environment

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.

Disposal 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 and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a competent person. Any plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.

10

This appliance complies with all relevant legal safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these operating instructions carefully before installation and before using it for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, operation and care of the appliance.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user.

Correct usage

This appliance is intended for domestic use to cook food, and in

particular to bake, roast, defrost, cook, dry fruit etc, and to grill.

Any other usage is at the owner’s risk and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect or improper use of the appliance.

The use of the appliance by the elderly or infirm or those who have

not used the appliance before should be supervised by a competent and responsible person to avoid the risk of injury.

This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, keep

children well away and do not let them play with it or use the controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by it. They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen.

Older children may use the appliance only when its operation

has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.

Technical safety

Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that

the voltage and frequency correspond to the rating on the data plate, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a competent person if in doubt.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested, 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).

11

Warning and Safety instructions

The appliance must be built in before operation to ensure that no

electrical components are accessible.

Never open the casing of the appliance.

Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by

a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance

must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

the mains fuse is withdrawn,

or the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable),

or 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.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

This equipment 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.

Use

Caution, danger of burning.

High temperatures are produced by the oven.

Great care should be taken to ensure that small 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, handle vent and control panel can become quite hot.

Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an

oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven or play with it.

Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on to the oven to reach these could be seriously injured.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or

removing it and when adjusting shelves etc in a hot oven.

When using "Conventional" heating or when grilling the element in the roof of the oven and the roof liner become very 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.

Remove all accessories as well as the runners and any extra

accessories such as, for example, the baking carriage, or telescopic runners from the oven interior before starting the pyrolytic cleaning process. The high temperatures needed for pyrolysis will damage the accessories and cause irreparable damage to the baking carriage and telescopic runners.

Do not use plastic containers. These melt at high temperatures

and could damage the oven.

Do not heat up unopened tins or jars of food in the oven, as

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.

This could damage the appliance. The oven door can support a maximum load of 15 kg.

Make sure that nothing gets trapped between the door and the

oven.

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, do not switch the appliance

off.

Leave the programme selector at the position set and select the lowest temperature.

Do not switch the appliance off until the food has been removed. Moisture in the oven could lead to condensation forming on the control panel and surrounding kitchen furniture and drops of moisture collecting under the worktop.

Condensation can:

damage the housing unit / worktop.

lead to corrosion in the oven.

On models fitted with a catalyser, it could also result in deposits remaining in the catalyser, causing an unpleasant smell to arise the next time the appliance is switched on.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

Bake larger frozen products, such as pizzas, on baking paper on the

rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra accessories").

Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort, and this distortion will increase with each subsequent use.

Frozen food such as oven chips or croquette potatoes can, however, be cooked on the baking tray or in the grill pan.

Never add water to food on a hot baking tray or grill pan 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.

Never line the floor of the oven with aluminium foil when using

Conventional CB or Bottom heat B or Intensive bake F, or place a dish, tin, baking tray or grill pan on the floor of the oven.

If using a grill pan made by a different manufacturer, make sure that there is a gap of at least 6 cm between the bottom of the pan and the floor of the oven.

If these instructions are not observed the bottom heat will be blocked. This can cause permanent damage to the floor of the oven.

Protective aluminium foil panels are available in retail outlets which are

supposed to protect the oven cavity from soiling and reduce the need for cleaning. If used, cooking and baking times will increase considerably. They can also cause damage to the appliance (e.g. by blocking the heat).

General notes

Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil

or fats, as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.

Do not use the oven to heat up the room. Due to the high temperatures

radiated, objects left near the oven could catch fire.

Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated.

Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cooking container. 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.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

When using kitchen appliances connected to sockets near the

oven, ensure that the cable cannot get trapped in a hot oven door, which could melt the cable insulation. Danger of electric shock.

Never use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. The steam could

reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

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.

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 appliance guarantee.

Disposal of your old appliance

Before throwing an old appliance away it must first be made

unusable. Switch off and disconnect it from the power supply, cut off the cable directly behind the appliance and render any plug useless. This should be done by a competent person. If connected to an isolator switch, disconnection should be carried out by an electrician to avoid the risk of accidents.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

15

Safety feature

Door lock for pyrolytic mode

For safety reasons the door is automatically locked at the beginning of the pyrolytic programme.

At the end of the programme it will not be unlocked until the temperature inside the oven has dropped to below 280 °C.

If the Pyrolytic . cleaning programme has been started by mistake or if the process is interrupted, the door lock will be released:

immediately if the temperature is below 280 °C.

The door can then be opened about 30 seconds later.

not until the oven interior temperature is below 280 °C if the temperature inside the oven is higher than

280 °C.

Description of the oven systems

Fan plus Y

Auto roast E

This system works by the circulation of heated air.

A fan situated in the back wall of the oven draws in the air, heats it over a ring element and blows it back into the oven cavity through the carefully spaced openings in the back panel.

The oven does not usually need to be pre-heated as the heated air reaches the food straight away.

Exception: Pre-heating may be necessary for foods which cook in less than 20 minutes and for foods such as puff pastry and yeast mixtures where instant heat is required to make them rise quickly.

When using Fan plus, you can bake and roast on different levels at the same time.

Lower temperatures can be used than with Conventional top and bottom heating, as the Fan plus system circulates the heated air throughout the oven.

The oven heats initially to a high temperature (230 °C) which seals the meat to keep it succulent and tasty. As soon as this temperature has been reached, the oven temperature automatically drops back down to the pre-selected setting.

Intensive bake F

This method combines Fan plus with Bottom heat. It is particularly useful for dishes that require a moist topping and crisp base like pizza and quiche lorraine.

Conventional (top and bottom heat) CB

With the conventional method of heating, radiant heat is directed onto the food from above and below. It is useful where a fairly long cooking time is required and a deep colour and good rise are needed.

It is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven when using this method.

25

Description of the oven systems

Gentle bake ö

Gentle bake uses the fan heat element and the fan.

It is suitable for bakes and gratins where a crispy finish is required.

Grill m

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed before grilling.

The inner part of the upper heating element acts as the grill. This will glow red for a few minutes after being switched on, and it is then ready for use.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Use this setting for small quantities of food.

Grill - full n

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed before grilling.

The entire upper heating element acts as the grill.

This method is particularly good for grilling large quantities of food using the grill pan to its full extent.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Fan grill N

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed before grilling.

The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by the fan on the back

wall of the oven. This enables a lower temperature to be selected than for conventional grilling.

Grill with the oven door closed.

Pyrolytic cleaning .

In this mode the oven cleans itself.

The oven is heated up to approx. 460 °C and any residual soiling in the oven interior is burnt off by the high temperatures.

This oven offers three programme durations for pyrolytic cleaning.

After the cleaning process any pyrolytic debris (e.g. ash) can be easily wiped out.
