Danger of injury. Never allow children to hang or lean on any part of the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Technical safety

Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.

Do not carry or lift the range by the oven door handle or the control panel!

Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so. Service work may only be performed by a qualified technician.

A damaged range can be dangerous. Always check for visible signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.

Reliable and safe operation of the range can only be guaranteed if it is connected to the public power supply.

The electrical safety of the range can only be guaranteed when it is properly grounded. Compliance with this essential safety requirement is absolutely mandatory. If in any doubt, please have the building's wiring system inspected by a qualified electrician.

Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been installed correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified technician.

To avoid damaging the range, make sure that the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the building's power supply before connecting the appliance.

When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven lighting is broken (see “Frequently asked questions”), the range must be completely disconnected from the household electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:

–The main circuit breaker has been tripped, or

–The plug fuses have been fully unscrewed (where applicable), or

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

–The power cable has been unplugged from the wall outlet. Unplug the cable by pulling on the plug, not on the cord.

Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range to electricity. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required level of appliance safety.

Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical components of the range will endanger your safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.

Do not open the appliance housing under any circumstances.

This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).

Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorized service technician will void the warranty.

Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance.

Risk of electric shock! If the ceramic surface of the stovetop is defective or chipped, cracked or broken in any way, immediately switch the stovetop off and do not continue to use it. Disconnect the range from the power supply and contact Miele Technical Service.

If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until the appliance has completely cooled down.

Reaching over a hot cooktop to access the cabinets can result in burns. You can reduce the risk of burns by installing a range hood that extends at least 4 3/4" (12 cm) past the bottom of the cabinets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct use

The oven becomes very hot while in use. Use caution to ensure that you are not burned on the heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven. Use pot holders when placing food in the oven, adjusting the racks, etc. in a hot oven.

Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.

Do not let food sit in the oven for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements.

Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear proper apparel while operating the appliance.

Do not heat up food in closed containers, as pressure will build up in the container, causing them to explode.

Do not use the range to boil or heat up cans.

Never pour cold water onto hot surfaces in a hot oven.

The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel in the oven.

To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before placing or removing food.

To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before cleaning by hand.

Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may trip over it or be injured by it.

Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use water on grease fires.Turn off the oven immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the oven door closed.

Do not use water on cooktop grease fires. Turn the cooktop off. Smother or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher on any fire or flame.

Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing agent or foam fire extinguisher.

Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces.

The high temperatures radiated could cause objects near the oven to catch fire.

Do not use the oven to heat the room.

WARNING

NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.

WARNING

NEVER use this appliance as storage space. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

Broiling food for an excessively long time can cause it to dry out and may result in the food catching fire.

Do not exceed recommended broiling times.

Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high broiling temperatures.

Do not use broiling functions for crisping rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use the Conv Bake (Convection Bake) or Surround functions.

Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances, combust on the hot heating elements.

Plastic or aluminum foil cookware melts at high temperatures and can damage the range or start to burn. Do not use any plastic or aluminum foil cookware.

Exception: You can use oven-safe plastic cookware in the oven. Heed the cookware manufacturer's instructions.

When residual heat is used to keep food warm, the high level of humidity and condensation can cause damage in the oven. The control panel, countertop or cabinetry may also be damaged.

Do not switch the oven off completely while food is inside it, but select the lowest possible temperature for the oven mode you are using. This will ensure the fan will automatically continue to run.

It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the interior of the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid damage, do not place aluminum foil, pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor. This can cause a build up of heat that will damage the oven floor.

Do not slide pots or pans on the oven floor. This could scratch and damage the surface.

The door can support a maximum weight of 33 lbs (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.

This oven must only be used for cooking food. Fumes, vapors or heat given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials could be hazardous. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc.

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Do not let metal objects (aluminum foil, pans) come in contact with the heating element.

Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with or get caught in the oven door.

When baking frozen pizzas or pies, place them on the wire rack lined with parchment paper. Do not use the baking tray or the roasting pan for frozen foods with a large surface area. The tray or pan could become warped and difficult to remove from the oven when hot. Frozen foods like french fries, chicken nuggets, etc. can be baked on the baking tray.

The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on fire. Do not flambé under a ventilation hood.

Never heat empty cookware.

If the cooktop is covered, there is a risk that the material of the cover will ignite, explode or melt if the cooktop is still hot or if turned on inadvertently. Never cover the cooktop with a board, cloth or protective sheet.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand mixer, near the cooktop, make sure that the power cable does not come into contact with the hot cooktop. The cable's insulation could become damaged.

The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after being turned off. There is a potential hazard until the residual heat indicator goes out.

If the cooktop is turned on or accidentally turned on or if it is still hot, metal objects on the cooktop can heat up. Other items may melt or catch fire. Damp lids can become attached to the cooktop by suction. Do not store items on the cooktop! Always turn the burners off after use!

Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminum foil to get onto the cooktop when it is hot, as they can damage the ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, turn off the appliance immediately and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminum residues while still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Use pot holders. Allow the ceramic surface to cool down before cleaning with a suitable ceramic cleaning agent.

Pans that boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do not leave the appliance unattended while it is being used.

Pots and pans with bases with pronounced edges or ridges can scratch the ceramic burner. Only use pots and pans with smooth bases.

Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can cause scuffs and scratches.

Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can cause scratches if they get under pan bases. Make sure that the ceramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.

Even a light object can cause damage to the ceramic cooktop in certain circumstances. Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Hot pans on the display can cause damage to the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the area around the display.

The cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of beveled cooktops) may become hot due to the following factors: operating time, high output settings, large cookware, and number of burners in operation.

Cookware made from aluminum or with an aluminum base can cause shiny metallic spots. These spots can be removed with ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaner (see “Cleaning and Care”, “Cleaning the ceramic surface”).

If residue remains on the cooktop for any length of time, it can cook into the cooktop and sometimes it is then not possible to remove it. Remove spills and splatters promptly. Also make sure that the bottom of any cookware is clean, dry, and free of grease before placing it on the cooktop.

The cooktop has burners of different sizes. Use cookware with a level base that is large enough for the burner. Cookware that is too small leaves part of the hot burner uncovered, which may cause burns due to touching or ignite clothing. The use of cookware of the right size also makes for better use of the heated areas.

Not any cookware of glass, glass ceramic, ceramic, clay or other glass cookware is suitable for use on a burner. It can be damaged due to sudden temperature change.

Wet sponges or clothes can cause burns due to hot steam if they are used to wipe spilled food off a hot burner. Some cleansers can emit hazardous vapors if they are applied to a hot surface. Be careful when cleaning the cooktop.

Spilled food can cause odors and the spraying of grease, which can ignite on the cooktop. Never leave the cooktop unsupervised at high power.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

If the handles of a pot or pan extend across an adjacent burner, this can cause burns, the ignition of flammable materials and the spilling of food due to inadvertent contact with the cookware. Turn the pot or pan so that the handles point toward the inside and do not extend across an adjacent burner.

If the burner is damaged, cleansers or spilled food can penetrate the glass surface and cause a short-circuit. Never cook on a damaged burner. Contact an electrician immediately.

Cleaning and maintenance

The steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach live electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the range.

Only clean parts listed in these Operating and Installation Instructions.

Scratches on the door glass can cause the glass to break.

Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal

tools to clean the door glass.

The shelf runners can be removed for cleaning purposes (see “Cleaning and care”). Ensure they are correctly fitted after cleaning and never operate the oven without the shelf runners inserted.

There is a seal around the oven interior which seals the inside of the door. Take care not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind should not be used in or around any part of the oven.

Debris should be removed before running the Self Clean program. If not removed this debris can smoke causing the self-cleaning program to turn itself off.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Accessories

Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will become void.

The high temperatures used during self-cleaning will damage accessories that are not designed for cleaning in the Self Clean program. Please remove these accessories from the oven before starting the Self Clean program. This also applies to accessories purchased separately (see “Cleaning and care”).
