children sit on the door, lean against it or swing on it.

Danger of burning.

~

Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of
adults. The oven gets hotter during pyrolytic cleaning than it does in
normal use. Do not let children touch the oven whilst the Pyrolytic
cleaning programme is running.

9

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause

~

considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

Never use a damaged oven. It could be dangerous. Check it for

~

visible signs of damage before using it.

Reliable and safe operation of this oven can only be assured if it

~

has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

~

when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety
requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.

To avoid the risk of damage to the oven, make sure that the

~

connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match
the mains electricity supply before connecting the oven to the
mains. Consult a qualified electrician 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 (fire hazard).

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has

~

been built in.

The oven must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a

~

ship).

10

Warning and Safety instructions

Tampering with electrical connections or components and

~

mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
Never open the casing of the appliance.

While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be

~

undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
guarantee is invalidated.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when

~

genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty
components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

If the connection cable is damaged or if the oven is supplied

~

without a cable, it must be replaced or fitted with a special
connection cable by a Miele authorised technician (see "Electrical
connection").

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance

~

must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply, e.g. if the
oven lighting is faulty (see "Problem solving guide" and "Electrical
connection").

11

Warning and Safety instructions

In order to function correctly, the oven requires an adequate

~

supply of cool air. Ensure that the supply of cool air is not impaired
(e.g. by heat insulation strips in the housing unit). Please also ensure
that the cool air supply is not unduly heated by other heat sources
such as a solid fuel stove.

If the oven is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door),

~

ensure that the door is never closed whilst the oven is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and
cause subsequent damage to the oven, the housing unit and the
floor. Do not close the door until the oven has cooled down
completely.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Danger of burning.

,

The oven becomes hot when in use.
You could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven interior,
cooked food or oven accessories.
Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or
removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven

~

when it is in use could catch fire.
Do not use the oven to heat up the room.

Oil and fat can ignite if overheated. Never leave the oven

~

unattended when cooking with oil and fat.
If it does ignite do not put the flames out with water. Switch the oven
off immediately and then suffocate the flames by keeping the oven
door closed.

Grilling food for an excessively long time can cause it to dry out

~

with the risk of catching fire.

Do not exceed recommended grilling times.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

Some types of food dry out quickly and can self-ignite if high grill

~

temperatures are used. Never use the grill to finish baking
part-cooked rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Use Fan
plus U or Conventional heat V for this type of procedure.

If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high

~

temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise. The vapour can
catch fire on hot heating elements.

When using residual heat to keep food in the oven warm, the high

~

moisture content and amount of condensation in the oven can cause
corrosion damage. The control panel, the worktop or the housing
unit can also suffer damage.
When using residual heat do not switch the oven off. Instead set the
temperature to the lowest setting and leave the oven on the selected
function. The fan will then remain on automatically and dissipate the
moisture.

Food which is stored in the oven or left in it to be kept hot can dry

~

out and the moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the
oven. Always cover food that is left in the oven to keep warm.

A build-up of heat can cause the enamel on the floor of the oven

~

to crack or shatter.
Do not line the floor of the oven with anything, e.g. aluminium foil. Do
not place roasting pans, pots or baking trays directly on the oven
floor.

The enamelling on the oven floor can become damaged by items

~

being pushed around on it. If using the oven to store pots and pans,
ensure that you avoid pushing them around on the oven floor.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

If cold liquid is poured onto a hot surface steam will occur, which

~

can cause scalding. The sudden change in temperature can also
damage enamel surfaces.
Do not pour cold liquid directly onto hot enamelled surfaces.

It is important that the temperature in the food being cooked is

~

evenly distributed and sufficiently high. Stir and / or turn it to ensure
even heat distribution.

Plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven can

~

melt at high temperatures and can even damage the oven or catch
fire.
Only use plastic containers which are declared by the manufacturer
as being suitable for use in an oven. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on use.

Do not bottle or heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or

~

sealed jars in the oven, as pressure will build up in the container,
causing it to explode.

You could injure yourself on the open oven door or trip over it.

~

Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.

The door can support a maximum weight of 15 kg.

~

Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy
objects on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between
the door and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged.

15

Warning and Safety instructions

Cleaning and care

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.

~

The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.

Scratches on the door glass can result in the glass breaking. Do

~

not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal
tools to clean the door glass.

The side runners can be removed for cleaning purposes (see

~

"Cleaning and care"). Ensure that they are replaced correctly and do
not use the oven without them fitted.

Coarse soiling should be removed before running the Pyrolytic

~

cleaning programme. If not removed, coarse soiling can smoke and
cause the Pyrolytic cleaning programme to switch itself off.

16

Warning and Safety instructions

Accessories

Only use genuine original Miele accessories. Using accessories

~

from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele
cannot accept liability.

If you have a Miele HUB 5000-M, HUB 5001-M or a HUB 5000-XL

~

oven dish, do not place it on Shelf level 1.
This would damage the floor of the oven. The very small gap
between the bottom of the dish and the oven floor would cause a
build-up of heat and could cause the enamel to crack or chip.
Never place a Miele oven dish on the top rail of Shelf level 1 as it will
not be held securely in this position by the anti-tip notches on the
runners.
In general it is best to use Shelf level 2.

Remove all accessories as well as the runners and any extra

~

accessories such as FlexiClip runners from the oven interior before
starting the pyrolytic cleaning programme.
The high temperatures needed for pyrolysis will damage them.

17

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material

The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should 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.

Disposing of your old
appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also 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.

18

Ensure that it presents no danger to
children while being stored for
disposal.

27

Features

Oven controls

(features will vary depending on model)

The oven controls are used to operate
the various cooking functions for
baking, roasting and grilling.

Ovens with a clock/timer also offer the
following:

a time of day display,

–

a minute minder,

–

a timer to automatically switch

–

cooking programmes on and off,

– settings that can be customised.

Safety features

System lock 0 for the oven

The system lock prevents the oven from
being used unintentionally (see
"Clock/timer - Changing settings – P3").

When the system lock is engaged 0
will appear in the display.

Cooling fan

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 a programme to prevent
moisture building up in the oven, on the
control panel or in the oven housing
unit.

When the temperature in the oven has
fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will
switch off automatically.

Vented oven door

The oven door glass panes have a
heat-reflecting coating.

When the oven is operating, air is
passed through the door to keep the
outer pane cool.

The door can be removed and
dismantled for cleaning (see "Cleaning
and care").

28

Door lock - Pyrolytic cleaning

For safety reasons the door is locked as
soon as the pyrolytic cleaning
programme is started. After the
Pyrolytic cleaning programme has
finished, the door will remain locked
until the temperature in the oven has
fallen below 280 °C.

PerfectClean treated surfaces

PerfectClean surfaces have very good
non-stick properties and are much
easier to keep clean than conventional
enamel surfaces, if cleaned regularly.

Food can be taken off it easily, and
soiling from baking and roasting is
simple to remove.

Food can be sliced or cut up on
PerfectClean surfaces.

However, do not use ceramic knives
as these will scratch the
PerfectClean surface.

Surfaces treated with PerfectClean
enamel can be cleaned as you would
clean glass.

Read the instructions in "Cleaning and
care" so that the benefits of the
non-stick properties and easy cleaning
are retained.

If using an older recipe or cookbook,
set the oven temperature for
Conventional heat 10 °C lower than that
recommended. This will not change
cooking times.

Bottom heat X

(Bottom heat element)

Use this setting towards the end of
cooking to brown the base of a cake,
quiche or pizza.

Grill Y

Top heat/grill element

For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts
(e.g. steaks) and browning baked
dishes.

32

Overview of functions

Rapid heat-up S

(Top heat/grill element + ring heat
element + fan)

For pre-heating the oven quickly.
The oven function required must then
be selected.

Fan plus U

(Ring heat element + fan)

This function is used for baking and
roasting on different levels at the same
time.
A lower temperature can be selected
than when using Conventional heat V,
as the fan distributes the heat to the
food straight away.

Intensive bake O

(Ring heat element + fan + bottom heat
element)

For baking cakes with moist toppings.
Intensive bake is not suitable for baking
thin biscuits or for roasting as the juices
will become too dark.

Fan grill \

(Top heat/grill element + fan)

For grilling thicker cuts of meat
(e. g. roulades, chicken). Lower
temperatures can be used than when
using the Grill Y function, as the fan
distributes the heat to the food straight
away.

Gentle bake K

(Top heat/grill element + ring heat
element + fan)

Ideal for cooking bakes and gratins that
need to be crispy on top.

Tips on saving energy

Cooking

Remove any accessories from the

^

oven that you do not require for
cooking.

Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to

^

do so in the recipe or the cooking
chart.

Avoid opening the door during

^

cooking.

In general, if a range of temperatures

^

is given, it is best to select the lower
temperature and to check the food
after the shortest given time.

^ It is best to use dark baking tins and

containers with a matt finish made
from non-reflective materials
(enamelled steel, oven-proof
glassware, non-stick coated cast
aluminium). Shiny materials such as
stainless steel or aluminium reflect
heat, preventing it reaching the food
efficiently. Do not cover the oven floor
or the rack with heat-reflective
aluminium foil.

Observe cooking durations to avoid

^

energy wastage when cooking food.

Wherever possible set the cooking
duration, or use a food probe.

Fan plus U can be used for cooking

^

many types of food. Because the fan
distributes the heat to food straight
away it allows you to use a lower
temperature than you would with
Conventional heat V. It also enables
you to cook on several shelf levels at
the same time.

Fan grill \ can be used for a wide

^

variety of food. With Fan grill you can
use lower temperatures than with
other grill functions which use the
maximum temperature setting.

^ Whenever possible you should cook

several dishes at the same time.
Place them next to each other in the
oven or on different shelf levels.

^ Dishes which you are unable to

prepare at the same time should, if
possible, be cooked one after the
other in order to make use of existing
heat in the oven.

34

Using residual heat

The temperature in cooking

^

programmes using temperatures
above 140 °C which take longer than
30 minutes to cook can be turned
down to the lowest possible
temperature about 5 minutes before
the end of cooking in order to make
use of residual heat. The cooling fan
and, depending on cooking function
the hot air fan, will remain on. Do not
switch the oven off (see "Safety
instructions").

If you wish to run the pyrolytic

^

cleaning programme, it is best to
start it immediately after a cooking
programme. The residual heat in the
oven will help reduce the amount of
energy required to run the
programme.

Tips on saving energy

35

Operation

Using the oven

Place the food in the oven.

^

Select the required oven function with

^

the function selector.

The oven lighting and the fan will switch
on.

Use the temperature selector to set

^

the temperature.

The oven heating will switch on.

After cooking:

Turn the function selector to 0 and

^

the temperature selector to ß.

^ Take the food out of the oven.

Cooling fan

The cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after a cooking process to
prevent moisture building up in the
oven, on the control panel or on the
oven housing unit.

The cooling fan will switch off
automatically when the temperature in
the oven interior has fallen sufficiently.

36

Operation

Pre-heating

It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven
in a few instances.

Most dishes can be placed in a cold
oven. They will then make use of the
heat produced during the heating-up
phase.

Pre-heat the oven when cooking the
following food with the following oven
functions:

Fan plus U

dark bread dough,

–

– beef sirloin joints and fillet.

Conventional heat V

– cakes and biscuits with a short

baking time (up to 30 minutes)

– delicate mixtures (e.g. sponges)

– dark bread dough,

– beef sirloin joints and fillet.

Rapid heat-up

Do not use Rapid heat-up S.
to pre-heat the oven when baking
pizzas or biscuits and small cakes.
They will brown too quickly on top.

Select Rapid heat-up S.

^

Select a temperature.

^

When the temperature indicator light

^

6 goes out for the first time, set the
oven function you require for
continued cooking.

^ Place the food in the oven.

Baking

Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc.
until they are golden. Do not
overcook them.

Functions:

Depending on how the food is
prepared, you can use Fan Plus U,
Intensive Bake O or Conventional
Heat V.

Bakeware

The choice of bakeware depends on
the oven function and preparation.

– Fan plus U, Intensive bake O :

Bakeware

– Conventional heat V:

Dark baking tins with a matt finish.
Avoid using bright, shiny metal tins
as they give an uneven and poor
browning result and in some cases
cakes might not cook properly.

Always place baking tins on the rack.

–

Position rectangular tins with the
longer side across the width of the
rack for optimum heat distribution
and even baking results.

When baking cakes with fresh fruit

–

toppings and deep sponge cakes
place the tin in the universal tray to
catch any spillages.

Baking paper, greasing the tin

Miele accessories, e. g. the universal
tray are treated with PerfectClean
enamel (see "Features").

Surfaces treated with PerfectClean
enamel generally do not need to be
greased or covered with baking paper.

Baking paper is only needed with

– anything with a high salt content

(e.g. pretzels, bread sticks), because
sodium can damage the
PerfectClean surface,

–

meringues or sponges with a high
egg-white content, because they are
more likely to stick,

50

–

frozen food cooked on the rack.

Baking

Notes on the baking chart

Temperature 6

As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart.

Baking at temperatures higher than
those recommended may reduce the
cooking time, but will lead to uneven
browning, and unsatisfactory cooking
results.

Baking duration +

Check if the food is cooked at the end
of the shortest time quoted.
To check if a cake is ready, insert a
wooden skewer into the centre. It is
ready if the skewer comes out clean,
without dough or crumbs sticking to it.

Shelf levels 

The shelf level on which you place your
food for baking depends on the oven
function and number of trays being
used.

Fan plus U

–

1 tray: level 2
2 trays: level 1+3
3 trays: level 1+3+5

When using the universal tray and
baking tray to bake on two or more
levels at the same time, place the
universal tray underneath the baking
tray.

Bake moist biscuits and cakes on a
maximum of two levels at the same
time.

– Intensive bake O

1 tray: level 1

– Conventional V

1 tray: level 1 or 2

Roasting

Functions:

Depending on how the food is
prepared, you can use Fan Plus U or
Conventional Heat V.

Crockery

You can use any heat-resistant
crockery:

Miele Gourmet oven dishes, roasting
pans, ovenproof glass trays, roasting
bags, dishes made from earthenware
or cast iron, the universal tray, rack
and/or anti-splash insert (if available)
on top of the universal tray.

We recommend roasting in oven dishes
as this ensures that sufficient stock
remains for making gravy. The oven
also stays cleaner than with open
roasting.

Notes on the roasting chart

Temperature 6

As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart. If higher
temperatures are used, the meat will
brown on the outside, but will not be
properly cooked through.

When cooking with Fan Plus U, select
a temperature of 20 °C lower than for
Conventional Heat V.

For cuts which weigh more than 3 kg,
select a temperature approx. 10 °C
lower than that given in the roasting
chart. Roasting will take longer at the
lower temperature, but will be more
even.

When roasting on the rack, set a
temperature of approx. 10 °C lower
than in an oven dish.

Pre-heating

56

Pre-heating is required when roasting
beef sirloin joints and fillet.

Roasting

Roasting duration +

The traditional British method for
calculating the roasting time is to allow
15 to 20 minutes per lb/450 grammes,
according to type of meat, plus approx.
20 minutes, adjusting the length of time
as roasting proceeds to obtain the
required result. The roasting time can
also be determined by multiplying the
thickness of the roast [cm] with the time
per cm [min/cm], depending on the
type of meat:

Beef/venison: .........15–18 min/cm

Pork/veal/lamb: ........12–15 min/cm

Sirloin/fillet: ............8–10 min/cm

Check if the meat is cooked after the
shortest duration quoted.

Shelf levels 

As a general rule, use shelf level 2.

Tips

Browning

Browning only occurs towards the end
of the roasting time. Remove the lid
about halfway through the roasting time
if a more intensive browning result is
desired.

Standing time

At the end of the programme, take the
roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium
foil and leave to stand for about
10 minutes. This helps retain juices
when the meat is carved.

Roasting poultry

For a crisp finish, baste the poultry
10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time with slightly salted water.

Low temperature cooking

This method is ideal for cooking beef,
pork, veal or lamb when a tender result
is required.

First sear the meat all over at a high
temperature on the hob in order to seal
it.

Then place the meat in the pre-heated
oven where the low temperature and
long cooking time will cook it to
perfection and ensure it is very tender.

The meat relaxes and the juices inside
start to circulate evenly throughout the
meat to reach the outer layers. This has
very tender and succulent results.

Tips

– Use lean meat which has been

correctly hung and trimmed. Bones
should be removed before cooking.

– For searing, use a suitable cooking

oil or fat that can withstand high
temperatures (e.g. clarified butter,
vegetable oil).

–

Do not cover meat during cooking.

Cooking takes between 2-4 hours
depending on the size and weight of
the meat and on how well cooked you
want it as well as the level of browning
required.

Procedure

Use the universal tray with the rack
placed on top of it.

Do not use the Rapid Heat-up S
function to pre-heat the oven.

Place the rack together with the

^

universal tray on shelf level 2.

Select Conventional heat V and a

^

temperature of 130 °C.

Pre-heat the oven together with the

^

universal tray and rack for approx.
15 minutes.

^ Whilst the oven is pre-heating, sear

the meat thoroughly on the hob.

,Danger of burning!

Use oven gloves when placing food
in the oven, turning or removing it
and when adjusting oven shelves
etc. in a hot oven.

^

Place the seared meat on the rack.

^

Reduce the temperature to 100 °C.

^

Continue cooking until the end of the
cooking duration.

On models with a clock/timer, you can
set this procedure to finish
automatically, see the "Clock/timer ­Entering a cooking duration").

Low temperature cooking

After cooking

Because the cooking and core
temperatures are very low:

Meat can be carved straight from the

–

oven. It does not need to rest.

The cooking result will not be

–

affected if the meat is left in the oven
after the programme has finished. It
can be kept warm until you serve it.

The meat is an ideal temperature to

–

eat straight away. Serve on
pre-heated plates with very hot
sauce or gravy to prevent it cooling
down too quickly.

Grilling

Danger of burning.

,

Grill with the oven door closed. If
you grill with the door open, hot air
will escape from the oven instead of
being cooled by the cooling fan.
The controls will get hot.

Functions

Trays and racks

Grill Y

For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts
(e.g. steaks) and browning baked
dishes.

The whole of the top heating / grill
element will get hot and glow red.

Fan grill \

For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled
meat, poultry.

The top heating / grill element and the
fan switch on and off alternately.

Use the universal tray with the rack or
anti-splash insert (if available) on top.
The juices from the food being cooked
collect under the insert. This prevents
them from spitting and making the oven
dirty. The juices can then be used for
making gravy and sauces.

Do not use the baking tray.

62

Grilling

Notes on the grilling chart

Temperature 6

As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart. If higher
temperatures are used, the meat will
brown on the outside, but will not be
properly cooked through.

Pre-heating

Always pre-heat the grill for approx.
5 minutes with the door closed.

Shelf levels 

Select the shelf level according to the
thickness of the food.

– Thin cuts: Shelf level 4/5

– Thicker cuts: Shelf level 2/3

Grilling duration +

– Flat pieces of fish and meat usually

take 6–8 minutes per side. Thicker
pieces require more time for each
side. It is best to grill food of a similar
thickness at the same time so that
the grilling time for each item does
not vary too greatly.

Testing to see if cooked

One way of finding out how well a piece
of meat has been cooked is to press
down on it with a spoon:

Rare: If the meat gives easily to

the pressure of the spoon,
it will still be red on the
inside.

Medium: If there is some resistance,

the inside will be pink.

Well-done: If there is very little

resistance, it is cooked
through.

Check if the meat is cooked after the
shortest time quoted.

Tip

If the surface of thicker cuts of meat is
cooked but the centre is still raw,
continue grilling at a lower temperature
setting or use a lower shelf level to
allow the food to cook through to the
centre.

–

Turn the food halfway through
cooking.

63

Grilling

Preparing food for grilling

Trim the meat. Do not season meat with
salt before grilling as this draws the
juices out.

Add a little oil to lean meat if necessary.
Do not use other types of fat as they
can burn and cause smoke.

Clean fish in the normal way. To
enhance the flavour, add a little salt or
squeeze a little lemon juice over the
fish.

Defrost

Use the Fan plus U setting without
setting the temperature for gently
defrosting food.

The fan will switch on and circulate air
at room temperature around the oven
cavity.

Danger of salmonella poisoning.

,

It is particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
poultry. Do not use the liquid from
the defrosted poultry. Pour it away,
and wash the tray, the sink and your
hands.

Useful tips

– Where possible, remove the

packaging and put the food to be
defrosted on the universal tray or into
a suitable dish.

– When defrosting poultry, put it on the

rack over the universal tray to catch
the defrosted liquid so that the meat
is not lying in this liquid.

Defrosting times

The time needed for defrosting
depends on the type and weight of the
food, and at what temperature it was
deep frozen. The following chart is for
guidance only. It is important to check
that food is thoroughly defrosted.

Frozen food/Ready meals

Tips

Cakes, pizza, baguettes

Large frozen items such as cakes,

–

pizzas or baguettes cover an
extensive area of the baking tray or
universal tray.
The temperature difference if large
frozen items are cooked in these
trays can cause the tray to distort in
such a way that it cannot be
removed from the oven when it is hot.
Further use will make the distortion
worse. Place this type of food on
baking parchment on the rack to
prevent the risk of this happening.

– Use the lowest temperature

recommended on the manufacturer's
packaging.

Oven chips, croquettes or similar
items

– Small items of frozen food such as

oven chips can be cooked on the
baking tray or universal tray.
Place baking parchment on the tray
so that they cook gently.

Method

Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.

Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc.
until they are golden. Do not
overcook them.

Select the function and temperature

Cleaning and care

Danger of burning. Make sure

,

the oven heating elements are
switched off and that the oven cavity
is cool.

Danger of injury. Do not use a

,

steam cleaning appliance to clean
this appliance. The steam could
reach electrical components and
cause a short circuit.

All external surfaces are susceptible
to discolouration or change in
appearance if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used.
Oven cleaners and descaling
agents will damage the front of the
oven, in particular.
Residues of cleaning agents must
be removed immediately after use.
All surfaces are also susceptible to
scratches. Scratches on glass
surfaces could even cause a
breakage in certain circumstances.

Unsuitable cleaning agents

To avoid damaging the surfaces, do not
use:

cleaning agents containing soda,

–

ammonia, acids or chlorides,

cleaning agents containing

–

descaling agents on the oven front,

abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

–

powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,

solvent-based cleaning agents,

–

stainless steel cleaning agents,

–

– dishwasher cleaner,

– glass cleaning agents,

– cleaning agents for ceramic hobs,

– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,

e. g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents,

– melamine eraser blocks,

–

sharp metal scrapers or tools,

–

wire wool,

70

–

spot cleaning,

–

oven cleaner*,

–

stainless steel spiral pads*.

* these can, however, be used to

remove very heavy soiling from
PerfectClean treated surfaces.

Soiling might become impossible to
remove if it is not dealt with.
Continued use of the oven without
regular cleaning will make it much
harder to keep clean.
Soiling is, therefore, best removed
after each use of the oven.

The accessories are not
dishwasher-proof.

Tips

– Soiling caused by spilt juices and

cake mixtures is best removed whilst
the oven is still warm. Exercise
caution and make sure the oven is
not too hot - danger of burning.

– To make cleaning easier you can

dismantle the oven door, remove the
side runners and the FlexiClip
runners (if present) and lower the top
heating/grill element.

Cleaning and care

Normal soiling

There is a fibreglass seal around the
oven interior which seals the inside
of the door. It is sensitive to
abrasion and rubbing.
To prevent the risk of damaging it
do not clean it.

It is best to remove normal soiling im

^

mediately using a clean sponge and
a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid or with a clean,
damp microfibre cloth.

^ After cleaning make sure all residual

cleaning agent is thoroughly
removed with clean water. This is
particularly important when cleaning
PerfectClean surfaces as cleaning
agent residues can impair the
non-stick properties.

^ After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry

using a soft cloth.

-

71

Cleaning and care

Stubborn soiling (does not
apply to the FlexiClip runners)

Spilt fruit and roasting juices may
cause lasting discolouration or matt
patches on enamelled surfaces.
This discolouration is permanent but
will not affect the efficiency of the
finish. Do not try to remove this
discolouration! Clean these
following the instructions given here.

Baked on deposits can be removed

^

with a glass scraper or a
non-abrasive stainless steel spiral
pad.

^ Very stubborn soiling on

PerfectClean treated enamel can be
cleaned using Miele oven cleaner. It
must be applied to cold surfaces in
accordance with instructions on the
packaging.

Non-Miele oven spray must only be
used in a cold oven and for no longer
than a maximum of 10 minutes.

Stubborn soiling on the
FlexiClip runners

Never attempt to clean FlexiClip
telescopic runners in a dishwasher.
This would remove the special
grease which is essential for their
smooth functioning.

For stubborn surface soiling or if the
bearings become sticky with spilled
fruit juices proceed as follows:

Soak the FlexiClip runners for approx.

^

10 minutes in a solution of hot water
and washing-up liquid. If necessary
use the back of a washing-up
sponge to remove the soiling. The
bearings can be carefully cleaned
with a soft brush.

Cleaning may cause some
discolouration or fading in places,
however this will not affect the
functioning of the runners in any way.

^

Leave the oven cleaner to take effect
for the prescribed time. You can
then also use the scouring pad on
the back of a washing-up sponge to
remove the soiling.

^

After cleaning, remove all oven
cleaning agent residues thoroughly
with clean water, and dry with a soft
cloth.

72

Cleaning and care

Pyrolytic cleaning ^ of the
oven interior

Instead of cleaning the oven manually
you can run the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme ^.

During the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme the oven interior is heated
up to over 430 °C. Any residual soiling
is broken down and reduced to ash by
the high temperatures.

This oven has three levels of pyrolytic
cleaning, each with a different duration.

Select:
– Level 1 for light soiling
– Level 2 for heavier soiling
– Level 3 for very heavy soiling

For safety reasons the oven door is
automatically locked at the beginning of
the Pyrolytic cleaning programme.

It cannot be opened until the
programme has finished.

The timer can be used to delay the start
time of the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme, for instance to make use of
cheaper electricity tariffs.

Before running the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme

Remove all accessories as well as
the runners and any extra
accessories such as FlexiClip
runners from the oven interior before
starting the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme.
The high temperatures needed for
pyrolysis will damage them.

Take the side runners out (see

^

"Cleaning and care – Removing the
side runners with FlexiClip runners"")
and .remove any other accessories
from the oven cavity.

If not removed coarse soiling can
smoke and cause the Pyrolytic
cleaning programme to switch itself
off.

^ It should be removed before running

the Pyrolytic cleaning programme.

At the end of the pyrolytic cleaning
programme any residues such as ash
from the pyrolytic process can be easily
wiped away.

Danger of burning
Wait until the oven has cooled down
before removing residual soiling left
in the oven cavity from the Pyrolytic
cleaning programme.

75

Cleaning and care

The amount of soiling, e.g. ash, left in

^

the oven will vary depending on how
dirty the oven was to start with.

The fibre glass seal around the front
of the oven should be handled
carefully. Do not rub and scour it.
If possible you should avoid trying to
clean it.

Most soiling can be easily removed
using a clean, damp microfibre cloth,
or with warm water and a little
washing-up liquid on a clean
sponge.

Depending on how dirty the oven
was there may be a visible layer of
soiling across the inner glass pane
on the door. This should be removed
using the scouring side of a
dishwashing sponge or with a
stainless steel spiral pad and a little
washing-up liquid.

Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting
discolouration to enamelled
surfaces. This discolouration is
permanent but will not affect the
efficiency of the enamel. Do not
attempt to remove these marks.

Cleaning and care

Removing the door

The oven door is connected to the
hinges by retainers.

Before removing the door from the
retainers, the locking clamps on both
hinges have to be released.

^ Open the door fully.

Do not attempt to take the door off
the retainers when it is in the
horizontal position as the retainers
will spring back against the oven.

Do not use the handle to pull the
door off the retainers as the handle
could break.

Raise the door up till it rests open.

^

^

Release the locking clamps by
turning them as far as they will go.

78

^

Holding the door securely at both
sides lift it upwards off the retainers.
Make sure you take it off straight.

Dismantling the door

The oven door is an open system with
four glass panes which have a
heat-reflective coating on some of their
surface.

When the oven is operating, air is
directed through the door to keep the
outer pane cool.

If soiling has worked its way in between
the glass panes, the door can be
dismantled in order to clean in between
the panes.

Cleaning and care

Take particular care as scratches
can damage the glass.
When cleaning the glass panes do
not use abrasive cleaning agents,
hard sponges or brushes and do not
use sharp metal tools or scrapers.
Please also read the general notes
on cleaning the oven front before
cleaning the glass panes.

The glass panes are coated in
different ways with a heat-reflective
coating on the sides facing into the
oven cavity. The glass panes must
be fitted the right way round after
being cleaned.
Oven spray will damage the
aluminium trims inside the door.
These should only be cleaned using
hot water and washing-up liquid
applied with a clean sponge or a
clean, damp microfibre cloth.
Be especially vigilant after
dismantling the door that the glass
panes do not break.

Energy efficiency class

The energy efficiency class is calculated in accordance with EN 50304/EN 60350.

Energy efficiency class: A

Please observe the following advice when testing:

Use the Gentle bake K programme for testing purposes.

–

During testing make sure that only those accessories required for the test are in

–

the oven cavity.
Do not use other accessories that might be available, such as FlexiClip runners
or catalytic enamelled panels such as side panels or roof liners.

When calculating the Energy efficiency class it is important to keep the oven

–

door firmly closed.
Depending on test instruments used, the door seal function can be affected to
a greater or lesser degree. This can have a negative influence on test results.
This can be compensated for by pressing on the door. Where necessary
suitable technical measures can be used to assist. The door seal is not affected
in normal everyday use.
