Warning and Safety instructions

The steam combination oven is referred to in the following instructions as a

steam oven.

This appliance complies with statutory 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.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these instructions.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the contents. Pass them on to any future owner.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

This steam oven is intended for use in domestic households and similar working and residential environments.

This steam oven is not intended for outdoor use.

This steam oven is intended for domestic use only as described in these operating instructions.

Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

The steam oven can only be used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

This steam oven is supplied with a special lamp to cope with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This special lamp must only be used for the purpose it is intended for. It is not suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised person or by Miele Service.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

Activate the system lock to ensure that children cannot switch on the steam oven inadvertently.

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appliance unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the steam oven unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Children must not be allowed to clean the steam oven unsupervised.

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the steam oven and do not let them play with it.

Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

Danger of burning. Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of adults. The door glass, the control panel and the ventilation outlet above the oven door all get hot. Make sure that children do not touch the steam oven or attempt to open the door when it is in operation. Keep children well away from the appliance until it has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.

When the sensor is touched the door opens all the way automatically. Make sure that no one is in its direction of travel as it could hit young children or pets for example if they are in the way.

Danger of injury. The door can support a maximum weight of

10 kg.

Do not let children sit on the door, lean against it or swing on it. They

could injure themselves.

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 steam oven. It could be dangerous. Check it for visible signs of damage before using it.

Reliable and safe operation of this steam 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.

Before connecting the appliance 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 appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

Do not connect the steam oven to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (fire hazard).

For safety reasons, this steam oven may only be used when it has been built in. This is necessary to ensure that all electrical components are shielded.

This steam oven must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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 plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is supplied without a plug, the appliance must be connected to the electrical supply by a suitably qualified electrician.

If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suitably qualified electrician with a special connection cable of type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated). See "Electrical connection".

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.

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

In 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

Danger of burning. The steam oven becomes hot when in use. You could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven interior, cooked food, oven accessories, hot steam or the door glass. Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven or removing it,

when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven and when closing the door.

Take care when putting cooking containers into the oven or removing them not to spill the contents.

Do not use the steam oven to heat up or bottle food in sealed jars and tins.

Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode causing damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and scalding.

Plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven melt at high temperatures and can damage the steam 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. If you want to use plastic containers for steaming food make sure that they are temperature resistant to 100 °C and steam resistant. Any other plastic containers could melt, become brittle or break when subjected to heat.

Food which is left in the oven to be kept hot can dry out and the moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the appliance. Do not use the steam oven for keeping food warm and do not use utensils in the appliance which could corrode.

You could injure yourself on the open steam oven door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.

The door can support a maximum weight of 10 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 steam oven could get damaged.

Warning and Safety instructions

Oil and fat can ignite if overheated. Never leave the steam oven unattended when cooking with oil and fat.

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

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the steam oven when it is in use could catch fire.

Do not use the steam oven to heat up the room.

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.

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 or Conventional heat for this type of procedure.

To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the oven door if smoke occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by switching the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Do not open the door until the smoke has dispersed.

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.

Never cover the floor of the oven with aluminium foil, or place oven dishes, pans, saucepans or trays directly onto the floor of the oven.

Never use the oven without the filter in the bottom of the oven in place. It will prevent coarse food residues from blocking the drainage system and the pump.

To prevent the risk of damage do not leave the food probe in the oven when it is not being used.

Warning and Safety instructions

When using a small electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held blender, near the steam oven, care should be taken that the cable of the appliance cannot get trapped by the steam oven door. The insulation on the cable could become damaged, giving rise to an electric shock hazard.

Do not operate the steam oven without the lamp cover. Steam could could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. Steam could also damage the electrical components.

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.

Try to avoid the interior walls being splashed with food or liquids containing salt. If it does happen, wipe these away thoroughly to avoid corrosion to stainless steel surfaces inside the cabinet.

Accessories

Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Only use the Miele food probe supplied with this oven. If it is faulty, it must only be replaced with a suitable original Miele food probe.

The plastic on the food probe can melt at very high temperatures. Do not use the food probe when using the grill functions (exception: Fan Grill ). Do not store the food probe in the oven if it is not in use.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mater-

ial

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 appli-

ance

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, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Description of functions

Control panel

The water container, condensate container and food probe are located behind the control panel. The sensor is used for opening and closing the control panel. The panel is fitted with a device which will automatically stop it moving if it meets an obstruction whilst opening or closing.

Water container

The maximum water level is 1.4 litres, the minimum 1.0 litre. These levels are indicated on the container. Do not exceed the maximum level.

The amount of water used will depend on the type of food and the duration of cooking. Water will sometimes need to be replenished during the cooking programme. Water consumption is increased if the door is opened during cooking.

Fill the water container to the maximum level before each use.

Condensate container

Condensate that collects in the appliance from cooking is pumped into the condensate container. The container has a maximum capacity of 1.4 litres.

Grease filter

Fit the grease filter in the back wall for all roasting programmes.

It should be removed when using steam programmes.

It must also be removed when baking, as otherwise results can be uneven. (Exception: fit the grease filter in the back wall when baking open deep fresh fruit flans, e.g. plum or damson or pizza with lots of topping).

Food probe

The food probe measures the core temperature in the food, enabling the temperature during the cooking process to be monitored simply and accurately.

Temperature / Core temperat-

ure

Some functions have a default recommended temperature. This recommended temperature can be altered within the given range for the programme or programme stage in use, or for every time that programme is used (see "Settings - Recommended temperatures"). The core temperature can also be changed within a given range for an individual cooking process or cooking stage.

Description of functions

Moisture

The Combi mode mode and Reheat

functions use a combination of oven heat and moisture. You can alter the moisture/humidity level within a given range for an individual cooking programme or a cooking stage.

Depending on the moisture setting for the programme, either moisture or fresh air is injected into the oven. If the moisture level is set to 0 %, the maximum amount of air will be injected and no moisture. If the moisture level is set

to 100 %, air will not be injected into the oven and the maximum amount of moisture will be injected.

Some food gives off moisture during the cooking process. This moisture from the food also controls the amount of moisture needed. If the required amount of moisture is very low and the food already contains a lot of water the steam generator may not be activated at all.

Duration

Depending on the function, you can set a cooking duration of between 1 minute and 6, 10 or 12 hours.

The duration of the Automatic, Maintenance and Menu cooking programmes is set at the factory and cannot be altered.

With Steam cooking and functions and programmes that use steam alone, the set cooking duration does not start to count down until the set temperature has been reached. It begins immediately with all other functions and programmes.

Noises

You will hear a pumping sound when the appliance is switched on, during use and after switching it off. This is the sound of water being pumped through the system and is quite normal.

When the steam oven is in use, you will hear a fan noise.

Description of functions

Heating-up phase

During the heating-up phase the display will show the temperature in the cooking compartment as it rises and Heat-up phase in all programmes except for

Automatic programmes, Menu cooking and

Maintenance.

When cooking with steam, the duration of the heating-up phase will depend on the quantity and the temperature of the food. In general the heating-up phase will last for approx. 7 minutes. The duration will be longer if you are cooking refrigerated or frozen food.

Cooking phase

The cooking phase begins when the set temperature is reached. During the cooking phase, the duration remaining will be shown in the display.

Steam reduction

With steam cooking and combi cooking, the steam reduction function will switch on automatically at the end of a cooking programme which uses a temperature within a certain temperature range. This reduces the amount of steam which escapes when the door is opened. Steam reduction will appear in the display in addition to Process fin-

ished.

This function can be switched off if you wish (see "Settings - Steam reduction").

Oven interior lighting

For energy saving reasons, the oven compartment lighting has been set at the factory to go out after the programme has begun.

If you want it to stay on all the time the oven is on you will need to alter the default setting (see "Settings - Lighting").

If the door is left open at the end of a cooking programme the oven lighting will switch off automatically after 5 minutes.

The lighting radiates heat. It will switch itself off automatically when you are cooking with a temperature below 50 °C.

If the sensor on the control panel is touched, the oven compartment lighting will come on for 15 seconds.
