Description of the functions

Safety features

Door lock

Once a cooking process using the mi crowave has begun, the door will re main locked until the end of the programme. You can cancel the door lock by press ing the Stop/C touch control. The programme will then be interrupted.

Programming lock

The programming lock prevents func tions being entered unintentionally.

Safety cut-out

A process using a traditional oven function can be started without programming in a time. To prevent over-use and the consequent danger of fire, the appliance switches off automatically after a certain length of time. This can be between 1 hour and 10 hours depending on the function and temperature chosen.

If the microwave is switched off in be tween using two microwave cooking processes, there will be a delay of about 30 seconds before the new set ting is accepted. Therefore wait a short while before starting the second pro cess.

Energy saving functions

Door contact switch

If the door is opened during a programme using a traditional oven function (with or without microwave), a contact switch for the door switches the fan and heating element off automati

cally. The programme will continue to run again as soon as the door is shut. If ‘Stop/C’ was pressed before opening the door, then ‘Start’ must be pressed for the programme to continue.

Making use of residual heat

With the Fan Heat (hot air) and Auto Roast systems the heating shuts off automatically with the door closed when the current ambient temperature is sufficient to finish cooking the food. Whenever heat is lost, e.g. if the door is opened, the heating will switch on again automatically.

"Night time dimming" option

You can programme the appliance so that the brightness of the display is dimmed between the hours of 10 pm and 6 am. (22.00 to 6.00 hours).

Optional oven interior lighting

You can turn off the oven interior light ing if you do not want it to remain on during the entire cooking process. It will then only light up for approx. 10 sec onds after you have pressed the Enter touch control.

Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance complies with all rele vant legal safety requirements. Im proper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both per sonal injury and material damage.

Before installation and before using the appliance for the first time, read the operating instructions carefully. They contain important notes on in stallation, safety, operation and care of the appliance. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and dam age to the appliance.

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

Correct usage

The appliance is intended for do-

mestic use only: to cook food, and in particular to defrost, reheat, cook, bake, roast and to grill. Any other usage is at the owner’s risk and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use of the appli ance.

Do not let children access the appli ance or its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.

If allowing older children to use the ap pliance without supervision please en sure that they are aware of how a mi crowave oven works and understand the dangers of improper use.

Technical safety

If the connection cable is damaged the new cable must be fitted by a

Miele approved service technician.

Do not use the microwave function of the appliance if

- the door is warped.

- the door hinges are loose.

- holes or cracks are visible in the cas ing, the door, the door seal or the oven interior walls. Operating the appliance with this type of damage will result in microwave leakage, and present a hazard to the user.

Never open the casing of the appli-

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

Before connecting the appliance to

the mains supply make sure that the rating on the data plate corre sponds to the voltage and frequency of the household supply. It is essential that these data correspond as otherwise damage will occur to the machine. If in doubt consult a suitably qualified elec trician.

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the ap pliance, (for example danger of over heating).

Page 10

Warning and Safety instructions

The electrical safety of this appli

ance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the ap pliance and an effective earthing sys tem, which complies with local and na tional regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is tested by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsi ble for the consequences of an inade quate earthing system, such as an electric shock.

This appliance must only be oper

ated as a built-in appliance. This is necessary to ensure that all electrical components are shielded.

Installation work and repairs may

only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent service technician approved by Miele in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for unauthorised work.

This equipment is not designed for

maritime use or for use in mobile installations such as caravans, aircraft etc. However it may be suitable for such usage subject to a risk assess ment of the installation being carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

it is switched off at the wall socket,

–

and the plug removed (where appli cable). Do not pull on the cable, only on the plug.

or the mains fuse is withdrawn

–

or the screw-out fuse is removed (in

–

countries where this is applicable)

Ensure that current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or re pair work is being carried out.

Use

General notes

Always ensure that food is suffi-

ciently cooked or reheated. Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its initial temperature, changes to recipe and the shape and size of cooking container. Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only de stroyed by thorough cooking, therefore when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked through (at over 70°C, for a minimum of 10 minutes). If in doubt select a longer cooking or re heating time.

It is important that the heat is al

lowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and by observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.

Page 11

Warning and Safety instructions

Always remember that cooking

times in a microwave oven are usu ally considerably shorter than with tradi tional methods of food preparation. Ex cessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and eventually burn ing, or could even cause it to catch fire.

There is also a danger of fire if breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, grains etc., are dried in the microwave oven. Always ensure that this type of proce dure is supervised.

Exercise caution when cooking or

reheating food with a high sugar content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If heated for too long the sugar may caramelise or ignite.

Do not use full power if you warm

empty dishes or dry herbs. The lack or minimum amount of food could cause damage to the appliance.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when cooking with oils and fats as these can be a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.

If smoke occurs in the oven, to

avoid fuelling any flame do not open the oven door. Turn the function selector to "0", or switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the socket. Do not open the oven door until the smoke has dispersed.

Never heat undiluted alcohol in the

microwave oven as this can easily ignite.

Do not heat up unopened tins of

food in the oven as pressure will build up in the tin and it can explode. This could result in injury or damage.

Food left in the oven to take advan

tage of residual heat should always be covered to avoid it drying out, and to avoid a possible build-up of conden sation which could adversely affect the oven interior.

Try to avoid the interior walls being

splashed with food or liquids con taining salt. If it does happen wipe these away thoroughly, to avoid corro sion on the stainless steel surface.

Wear oven gloves when removing

the glass tray from the oven. If the glass tray has a heavy load, pull it only slightly towards you, and then hold firmly at the sides as you take it out.

The glass dish and the rack take a

maximum load of 8 kg. Do not exceed this or the accessories may be damaged.

Do not lean or sit on the open oven

door. This could damage the appli ance. Take care in the region of the hinges. An oven door can support a maximum load of 8 kg.

When it is hot do not place the

glass tray on a cold surface, such as a tile or granite worktop. It could break. Place it on a pot rest or a wire rack.

Warning and Safety instructions

Under no circumstances use a

steam cleaner to clean this appli ance. The steam could attack the elec trical components and cause a short circuit, or permanent damage to the surface and to components, for which the manufacturer of the oven cannot accept any responsibility.

Do not use the oven to heat up the

room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven could catch fire.

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 and be dangerous.

In countries 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 might be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.

Microwave function

Before serving remember to allow

sufficient standing time and then always check the temperature of the actual food itself after taking it out of the oven. Do not be misled by the tempera ture of the container which does not necessarily give a correct indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. This is paricularly important when

preparing food for babies, children, and the elderly or infirm.

Never cook or reheat food or liq uids in sealed containers or bot

tles. With baby bottles the screw top

and teat must be removed. Otherwise pressure builds up which can cause the bottle or container to explode pos ing a severe risk of injury.

When heating liquids, the boiling rod provided should be placed into

the container.

When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc., in the oven without the boiling rod, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typi cal bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly throughout. This so-called ‘boil ing delay’ can cause a sudden build up of bubbles, when the container is re moved from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over sud denly and explosively. There is a dan

ger of burning. The formation of bub bles can be so strong that the pressure forces the oven door open. The user could be injured and the appliance damaged. The boiling rod ensures that the liquid boils evenly and that bubbles form at an early stage during the operation.

Page 13

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use any containers or cut

lery made from or containing metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or wire ties. Such items could be damaged, or cause a fire hazard. The rack supplied with the appliance is designed to be compatible with micro waves, and can therefore be used with or without the microwave function.

The rack gets hot when operating

either the microwave function or the browning element, or both. There is a danger of burning.

Eggs can only be cooked in their

shells in the microwave oven in a specially designed egg-boiling device. Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven as this may lead to the eggs bursting, even once they have been removed from the oven.

Food with a thick skin or peel, such

as tomatoes, sausages, jacket po tatoes, aubergines, should be pierced or cut in several places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.

Ovenproof earthenware can retain

a considerable amount of moisture. Earthenware and porcelain containers with hollow handles and lid knobs must only be used in this oven if they have vent holes, which allow the moisture to escape. Without vent holes there can be a pressure build-up, causing the container to crack or shatter, with the danger of injury.

Traditional oven functions: Fan Heat, Auto Roast, Grill, Fan Grill

Caution - Danger of burning When the oven is being used as a traditional oven it can get very hot.

Eggs can be cooked without their

shells in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punc tured several times first. The pressure would otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.

Do not reheat food in the oven in

heat-retaining bags intended for normal ovens. These heat-retaining bags usually con tain a thin layer of aluminium foil which reflects microwaves. This reflected en ergy can, in turn, cause the outer paper covering to become so hot that it ig nites.

Great care should be taken to en-

sure that small children do not touch the oven when it is being used. External parts of the oven such as door glass, handle vents and the facia panel can become quite hot.

Wearing heat-resistant oven gloves

is recommended when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it. When the Grill or Fan Grill function has

been chosen, either solo or in a combi nation programme the grill element be comes very hot and there is a danger of burning.

Page 14

Warning and Safety instructions

Wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it for

cleaning.

Do not use force to pull it down as this can cause the element to

break.

Bottling

Bottling should only be undertaken by an experienced cook who has received proper training in this method of preserving fruit and vegetables in an oven or microwave oven, and under stands the implications of the chemical reactions involved.

The manufacturer cannot be held lia ble for damage caused by non-com pliance with these Warning and safety instructions.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mate

rial

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 materi als away, please ensure they are of fered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances may contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your local waste collection centre or scrap mer chant about potential recycling schemes.

Before discarding an old appliance

switch off and disconnect it from the power supply. This should be done by a competent person. Cut off the ca ble directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.Cut off and render any plug useless.

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

Page 16

Before using for the first time

Wipe out the oven interior with hot

water and a little washing up liquid. Dry using a soft cloth.

Do not shut the oven door until the interior is completely dry, to avoid odours and the possibility of corro sion developing.

Wash the accessories.

With new appliances there is usually a smell during the first use. It is dispelled more quickly by using a high tempera ture as follows:

Run the oven on the Fan Heat D setting for at least an hour.

^ Select Fan Heat D with the function

selector.

Enter

Enter the highest possible tempera

ture with the "+" touch control.

Confirm by pressing Enter.

Enter

^ Enter a time (at least 1 hour) with the

"+" touch control.

Press the Start touch control.

Ensure the room is well ventilated during this process.

Operating modes

Microwave h

Microwave cooking offers the benefits of speed, convenience and nutritional advantages when food does not require browning or crisping.

Functional description

This oven is equipped with two magnetrons a, which convert electrical energy into microwaves.

There are two stirrer fans b, one above the oven ceiling and the other under the oven floor. The fans distribute the mi crowaves evenly throughout the oven interior, rebounding them off the walls so that they reach and enter the food from all sides.

Microwaves can penetrate porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastics but not metal. Do not, therefore, use utensils made of metal, or which contain metal, for example in the form of gold or silver trim. The metal reflects the microwaves and this could lead to the creation of sparks. The microwaves cannot be ab sorbed.

All food contains moisture molecules which, when subjected to microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5 thousand million times a second. The friction caused by this vibration creates heat, which first starts developing around the outside of the food and then slowly penetrates towards the centre. The moisture, fat and sugar content of food will affect the speed at which it is cooked.

As heat is produced directly in the food,

– food can generally be cooked with-

out adding much liquid or cooking oil

–

cooking, reheating and defrosting in a microwave oven is quicker than us ing traditional oven methods

–

nutrients, such as vitamins and min erals, are generally retained

An advantage of this system is that food can be cooked on two levels si multaneously, (e.g. on the oven floor and the second runner level).

In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the cooking utensil being used.

–

colour, texture and taste of food are

not impaired

–

the surface temperature stays cool enough to avoid browning.

Page 18

Operating modes

Traditional oven functions

Fan Heat D Auto Roast E Grill n Fan Grill N These cook and brown the food.

Fan Heat D

The fan circulates heat constantly around the oven, giving a very even temperature throughout.

It sucks in the air, heats it over a ring element and blows it back through the carefully spaced openings in the back panel.

As the heat is quickly transferred to the food, it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven, except when roasting sirloin or fillet or for foods such as puff pastry and yeast mixtures which require instant heat.

Auto Roast E

After the selected temperature is en tered, the oven heats initially to a preset high temperature which seals the meat to keep it succulent and tasty. The oven temperature is then automati cally returned to the temperature set ting selected.

When roasting, you are strongly rec ommended to cover the food. Not only does this help retain all the juices, but will also make cleaning the oven easier afterwards.

Grill n

As the grill element needs to radiate a high heat in order to cook the food, it will take several minutes after being switched on for the element to glow red hot and so produce sufficient infra-red heat for grilling. Pre-heat the grill with the oven door closed for approx. 5 minutes before starting to cook.

With Fan Heat food can be baked or roasted on the floor and the second level at the same time.

Fan Grill N

The hot air from the grill is distributed by the fan in the rear of the oven evenly over all the food being grilled. This en ables a lower temperature to be se lected than for normal oven grilling.

Page 19

Operating modes

Combination programmes

h + D Microwave + Fan Heat h + E Microwave + Auto Roast h + n Microwave + Grill h + N Microwave + Fan Grill

The combination programmes enable the grill, fan and Auto roast settings to be used in conjunction the the micro wave facility.

In general when using the combination programmes, you should not set the mi crowave power level higher than 150 W for baking, and not higher than 450 W for cooking, roasting and grilling.

Automatic programmes

Q Cooking P Reheating N Defrosting

The microwave’s automatic programmes can be used to cook, re heat or defrost food.

They are dependent on weight, i.e. after selecting the appropriate food group, you then enter the weight of the food and the microwave power setting and

time will be calculated automatically.

Page 20

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Microwaves

– are reflected by metal,

–

pass through glass, chinaware, plas tic and card,

Material and shape

The material and shape of containers used affect cooking results and times. Heat distribution is more even in round and oval shaped dishes than in rectan gular containers, providing better re sults.

Metal

Metal containers, aluminium foil and metal cutlery, or china with metallic decoration such as gold rims or co balt blue must not be used in micro wave mode.

The metal reflects the microwaves, hindering the cooking process.

Exceptions:

If recommended by the producer, precooked meals packed in aluminium foil containers can be defrosted and reheated in the microwave oven. Important: remove the lid first. However, as food is only heated from the top, it is better to remove the food from the alu minium foil container and transfer it to a dish suitable for a microwave oven. The heat distribution will be more even. If

sparks and arcing occur when using a metal container, stop and transfer the food to a microwave safe container.

–

and are absorbed by food.

For even defrosting and to avoid over cooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of alu minium foil may be used to mask wingtips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the process.

Page 21

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Make sure that the aluminium foil is at least 2 cm from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls.

Metal meat skewers or clamps should only be used if they are very small in comparison to the size of the cut of meat.

The rack supplied with the appliance is suitable for use in a microwave oven. Do not place the rack on the oven floor.

The rack can get hot.

Glassware

Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass are ideal for use in the microwave oven.

Crystal glass contains lead which could cause the glass to crack. Glass dishes with a milled rim are subject to the same risk. Both are unsuitable.

Earthenware

Although some ovenproof earthenware can be used in a microwave oven it may contain a considerable amount of moisture, causing it to become hot dur ing use. It is normally advisable to avoid using it in a microwave oven.

Earthenware containers with hollow handles and lid knobs must only be used in this oven if they have vent holes, which allow the moisture to es cape. Without vent holes there can be a pressure build-up, causing the con tainer to crack or shatter, with the dan ger of injury.

Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath an all-over glaze.

Earthenware can get very hot, and may crack.

Porcelain (chinaware)

Porcelain is suitable, however contain ers with hollow handles and lid knobs must only be used in this oven if they have vent holes, which allow the mois ture to escape. Without vent holes there can be a pressure build-up, causing the container to crack or shatter, with the danger of injury.

Do not use porcelain with gold or silver edging or items with hollow knobs or handles as insufficient ventilation may cause pressure.

Glazes and colours

Some glazes and colours contain metal.

This makes them unsuitable for use in a microwave oven.

Plastics

Plastic containers must only be used for Microwave mode alone and not in con ventional oven mode. Plastics must be heat-resistant to a min imum of 180 °C. Otherwise the plastic may melt and fuse with the food.

Page 22

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Special plastic utensils, designed for use in microwave ovens are available from good retail outlets. Melamine ware is not suitable as it absorbs energy and heats up. When purchasing plasticware, make sure that it is suitable for use in a microwave oven.

Disposable containers, such as trays made from polystyrene, can only be used for very short timed warming and reheating of food.

Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and reheating. To reduce the risk of the bag bursting, they should be pierced first so that steam can escape and prevent a build-up of pressure.

Roasting bags and -tubes

Roasting tubes should be about 40 cm longer and roasting bags about 20 cm longer than the food being roasted, and carefully tied with string. Turn the ends over and secure them. Holes should be made according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Disposable containers

Only those plastic disposable contain ers which are specified by the manu facturer as suitable for use in a micro wave oven may be used.

Do not leave the oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plas tic paper or other inflammable mate rial.

Disposable containers are not always recyclable or degradable.

Testing dishes for their suitability

If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or porcelain plates or dishes are suitable for use in a microwave oven, a simple test can be performed:

^ Place the item you wish to test in the

centre of the oven, fill a suitable glass with water and also place this in the oven.

Shut the door.

Do not use metal clips or wire ties, even if bound by paper. There is a danger that they will ignite when heated.

Wood

Wooden dishes are not suitable. Moisture contained in the wood evapo

rates when exposed to microwave en ergy, causing the wood to dry and crack.

Select Microwave h with the function selector.

Enter

Select the highest microwave power setting (1200 W) with the "+" control.

Page 23

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Confirm by pressing "Enter".

Enter

Enter a time of 30 seconds with the

"+" control.

^ Press the Start control.

If a crackling noise is heard accompanied by sparks during the test, switch off the appliance immediately. Turn the function selector to the "0" position.

Any crockery which causes this re action, is unsuitable for use in the microwave oven.

If any doubt exists about the suitabil ity of containers, please contact the supplier.

This test cannot be used to check whether items with hollow knobs or han dles are suitable for use in a microwave oven.

A cover

prevents too much steam escaping,

–

especially when cooking food which needs longer to cook, such as pota toes,

– shortens and evens out the cooking

process, – prevents food from drying out, – prevents any loss of aroma. Always use lids or covers made of mi-

crowave-safe glass or plastic, or use a clingfilm recommended for use in a microwave oven, (pierce as instructed by the manufacturer). Unsuitable clingfilm can melt into the food.

The water in the glass should be warm, but the dish cool. If the dish is very hot and the water is cold, it would be unwise to use the dish.

Page 24

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Sealed glass containers, such as jars of food, must be opened before they are placed in the oven.

Do not use a cover if – cooking meals which are to be given

a crisp finish, – cooking breaded or battered foods –

Defrosting

Automatic defrosting N

This programme is suitable for defrost ing meat, poultry, fish, fruit, bread, soup, plated meals, casseroles and vegetables.

This programme is also the best for de frosting dishes containing other ingredi ents besides meat, poultry or fish, e.g goulash, casseroles, soups etc. Select "Casseroles" from the food groups.

When using the automatic defrost programme select "Bread" from the food groups for defrosting cakes which have a moist topping, such as fruit or cream cheese and also for defrosting bread rolls.

See "Automatic programmes" for details on using this programme.

Microwave h

This function can be used on its own to defrost food gently and quickly.

The following settings are recom mended as a general guide:

Defrosting:

Remove food from its packaging and

place it in a microwave-safe con

tainer.

Place the container in the middle of

the oven floor.

If defrosting a large quantity, e.g. 2 kg

of fish, you can also use the glass tray as a container. Place the glass tray on the oven floor.

Turn, stir or separate the food about half-way through the defrosting time.

The automatic programme has an audible tone which sounds as a reminder.

After defrosting

Allow the food to stand at room temperature long enough to allow the temperature to spread evenly throughout the food.

For more detailed information on defrosting consult a good microwave or microwave combi-oven cookbook.

Reheating

Automatic reheating P

This programme is suitable for reheat ing meat, poultry, fish, soup, plated meals, casseroles and vegetables.

See "Automatic programmes" for details on using this programme.

Microwave h

Microwave mode is suitable for reheat ing foods which are unsuitable for the automatic programme.

Select the following microwave power settings to reheat food

– drinks 1200 W, – food 850 W or 600 W – * food for babies 450 W.

* Baby food We do not recommend heating or reheating foods or drinks for babies or young children in the microwave oven. Any decision to do this is the responsibility of the user, and should only be done with the utmost care.

Always remove the lids from jars, es pecially jars of baby food. Remove the rubber teat and seal top before warming baby bottles.

For made-up milk follow the manu facturer’s instructions.

After reheating stir the food or shake the container and check that the tem perature does not pose any danger. Double check after it has been left to stand.

Always use a lid or cover for reheating

food, except when a drier finish is needed, e.g. breaded poultry / meat.

When reheating liquids place the boil ing rod supplied into the cup or glass.

Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a microwave oven, even without the shell. The eggs can burst.

Do not reheat food in the oven in heatretaining bags intended for normal ovens. These usually contain a thin layer of aluminium foil which reflects microwaves. This reflected energy can cause the outer paper covering to become so hot that it ignites.

The time required depends largely on the nature of the food, its initial temper ature and the amount to be cooked. Food taken straight from the refrigerator takes longer to reheat than food stored at room temperature.

Pasteurised or sterilised cooked food should be gently heated at 450 watts, and tasted so that it is not too hot for a baby’s palate before serving. Other food or drink when re heated should be heated to a high temperature and allowed to cool to a suitable heat for consumption.

Always ensure that the food is ade quately heated.

If in any doubt that a sufficiently high temperature has been reached, con

tinue reheating for a little longer.

Page 51

Reheating

Stir or turn food from time to time during cooking. Stir the food from the outside towards the middle, as food heats more quickly from the outside. With the auto matic programme an audible tone sounds as a reminder.

Heating on two levels

Because of the way that microwaves are distributed from top and bottom it is possible to reheat food on two levels at the same time.

^ Place dishes on the oven floor and on

the glass tray. Insert the glass tray on the upper level supports.

After reheating

Be careful when removing a dish from the oven. It may be hot.

Although heat is not normally produced in the container itself by the micro waves, (apart from stoneware and simi lar dishes), heat transfer from the food to the container may be considerable, making the container itself hot.

Allow food to stand for a few minutes at room temperature once a programme has ended to allow heat to be distrib uted evenly.

After reheating food, especially food for babies and small children, stir the food or shake the container and check that the temperature does not pose any danger. Double check after it has been left to stand.

For more detailed information on reheating consult a good microwave or microwave combi-oven cookbook.

You can arrange –

three plates (Ø 20 cm) in a triangle, two plates (Ø 22 cm) side by side, or two plates (Ø 24.5 cm) diagonally on the oven floor,

–

two plates (Ø 20 cm) side by side, or two plates (Ø 22 cm) diagonally on the glass tray.

Cooking

Automatic Cooking Q is suitable for

cooking meat and poultry which are not required to be crisped or browned, fish, soups, casseroles and vegetables.

See "Automatic programmes" for details on using this programme.

Microwave h

This method is suitable for cooking noo dles, pasta, rice and semolina pudding etc.

First select 850 W and then turn down to 450 W to continue cooking, or 150 W for simmering.

Place the food in a microwave-safe dish and cover it.

Place the dish on the oven floor. Vegetable cooking times depend on the

texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegetables contain more water than vegetables which have been stored and usually cook more quickly. Add a little water to vegetables which have been kept stored. Stir and turn food at least once during cooking.

Eggs can only be cooked in their shells in the microwave oven in a specially designed egg-boiling device available from specialist shops. Similarly, hardboiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven as this may lead to the eggs bursting, even once they have been removed from the oven.

Eggs can be cooked without their shells

in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first. The pressure could other wise cause the egg yolk to explode.

Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes and aubergines, should be pierced or cut in several places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.

Page 54

Cooking

Fan Heat D

This method is recommended for every day cooking, e.g. cakes, pastry, me ringues, pizza, potatoes and other veg etables.

Slide the glass tray with the rack into the lowest runner level.

The following containers are suitable: Ovenproof china or glassware, earthen

ware, pans with heat resistant handles. Cover foods such as potatoes or vege

tables which are to be simmered or poached, to avoid them drying out.

Where a crisp finish is required e.g. for meat, cook without a lid.

Combination programmes

Microwave + Fan Heat h + D

is suitable if you want a shorter cooking time.

Microwave + Grill h + n

is suitable for cooking food which re quires a crisp finish or browning.

Place the cooking container on the

glass tray and slide into the lowest run

ner level.

Only use heat-resistant, microwavesafe crockery. No metal.

Cover food being cooked in the Microwave + Fan Heat combination to avoid it drying out.

Leave food being cooked in the Microwave + Grill combination uncovered so that it can brown.

Ensure that food, such as meat and fish, are cooked for an appropriate length of time.

Grilling

The following grill settings are suitable for browning food:

Grill n is suitable for browning dishes such as cauliflower cheese. It can be used for grilling very thin meat or fish.

Fan Grill N is suitable for grilling larger pieces of meat, e.g. poultry and kebabs.

Combination programmes:

Microwave + Grill h + n

and

Microwave + Fan Grill h + N

are suitable for cooking food which requires a crisp finish or browning. Microwave power output is limited to 450 W maximum for the total grilling time.

Preparation of meat or fish

Clean, wipe and season. Do not salt slices of meat beforehand as this draws the juices out.

Add a little oil if necessary. Other fats quickly become black or cause the food to smoke. A little butter can be added to chicken if desired.

Clean flat fish and slices of fish in the normal way. To enhance the taste add a little salt or squeeze a little lemon juice over the fish.

Remember to fit the grease filter to the backpanel in front of the fan when using Fan Grill, either on its own (Solo) or in a combination programme.

Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes with the oven door shut. Do not select a microwave setting.

Brush the rack with oil and place the prepared food on the rack. It is best to grill food of a similar thick ness at the same time so that the grill ing time for each item does not vary too greatly. Slide the glass tray with the rack

into the upper (2nd) runner level for

–

flat pieces of food into the lowest runner level for thicker

–

pieces of food,

Most items should be turned half way through cooking. To grill thicker pieces of food more gradually after an initial high temperature, continue grilling at a lower temperature setting to allow the food to cook through to the centre.

Test to see if cooked

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

–

If there is very little resistance to the pressure of the spoon, it is still red on the inside ("rare").

–

If there is some resistance the inside will be pink ("medium").

–

If there is great resistance, it is throughly cooked through ("well done").

For more detailed information on grilling consult a good microwave or microwave combi-oven cookbook.

Roasting

When open roasting on the rack fit the grease filter in front of the fan grille at the rear of the oven.

Auto Roast E

Use Auto Roast E to give meat or poultry a crisp browned finish.

Auto Roast E

Slide the glass tray with the rack into the first runner from the bottom.

The following pots can be used: roasting tins, pots, earthenware, oven proof glass, roasting foil. Make sure the pot and lid have heat-re sistant handles.

Microwave + Auto Roast h + E

Select combination programme Microwave + Auto Roast h + E to cook in a shorter time.

The combination programme is not usually suitable for cooking roast beef or fillet steak. The centre would be too well cooked before the exterior is browned.

Put meat or poultry into the oven without pre-heating. Exception: Pre-heat at the temperature suggested when cooking beef and beef fillet.

Cooking in a covered pot is highly recommended:

–

the meat stays succulent,

–

the oven interior stays cleaner than when roasting on the rack.

Half way through the cooking time re

move the lid from the pot if browning the meat.

The roasting time depends on the type of meat, the size and thickness of the cut, and can be calculated as follows:

Thickness of the roasting cut of meat x time per cm per type of meat, see chart.

Type of meat Time per cm

Beef topside / Venison Pork / Veal / Lamb Sirloin fillet

thickness

15 – 18 mins. 12 – 15 mins.

8 – 10 mins.

Example: Lamb roast, 8 cm thick 8 x 12 minutes per cm = 96 mins. roasting time

(NB: there is also a traditional calcula

tion of approx. 20 minutes to the lb, (454 grammes) and 20 minutes over).

The larger the roast, the lower the tem

perature to be selected. For cuts above 3 kg select a temperature approx. 10 °C lower than that given in the roast ing chart. Roasting will take longer at the lower temperature, but will be more even.

Note: When roasting on the rack set a temperature of approx. 20 °C lower than in a covered pot.

Page 63

Roasting

Browning only occurs towards the end of the roasting time. 15 – 20 minutes before the end of roast ing time take the lid off the pot.

Do not select a higher temperature than that advised. This would brown, but not completely cook the meat.

Microwave + Auto Roast h + E

Slide the glass tray with the rack into the first runner level from the bottom.

Use only heat resistant pots, with no metal in the pot or lid. Microwaves can not penetrate metal to reach the food in the pot.

If using roasting foil – cut the foil approx. 40 cm longer than

the piece of food

– and tie carefully. Make sure the pot,

foil and ties are suitable for microwave use.

Together with Auto roast, select a microwave setting for the total cooking time of:

–

300 W for roasting meat or fish,

Useful hints

Roasting in a covered pot

Season the meat and place in the pot. Add some knobs of butter or margarine or a little oil or cooking fat. Add about

/8litre water when roasting a big lean joint of meat (2 – 3 kg), or roasting poul try with a high fat content.

Roasting on the rack

Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of streaky bacon on

the top. Do not add too much liquid to

the tray during cooking as this will hinder the browning process. Please note that open roasting can give rise to excessive smoke.

Roasting poultry

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

Roasting deep frozen meat

Deep frozen meat should be defrosted first.

–

150 W for roasting poultry.

After the roasting process is finished

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

For more detailed information on roasting consult a good microwave or microwave combi-oven cookbook.

Baking

Fan Heat D

This method is suitable for baking small cakes, swiss roll, pastry doughs.

Most types of heat-resistant tins or dishes are suitable, including thinwalled and bright, non-reflective metal tins.

Slide the glass tray with the rack into the 1st runner from the bottom, and place the baking tin on this.

Do not push the glass tray right to the back wall, but leave a gap of about 2 cm. Otherwise browning will be uneven.

Microwave + Fan Heat h + D

This combination programme is suit able for doughs which require longer baking, such as rubbed in and beaten mixtures, yeast recipes and cheese cake.

For preference use ovenproof glass or ceramic baking dishes, as microwaves can penetrate these materials into the food being cooked. Metal tins would re flect microwaves, so that they would only reach the cakes from the top, re sulting in a longer cooking time.

Baking time should not be too long. This can lead to the cake etc. drying out.

Increasing the temperature from sug gested levels and reducing the time can have an adverse effect on brown ing. To achieve even browning it might be better to select a slightly longer cooking time at a slightly lower temper ature.

Slide the glass tray into the 1st runner from the bottom, and place the baking dish on this.

Do not push the glass tray right to the back wall, but leave a gap of about 2 cm. Otherwise browning will be uneven.

Page 66

Baking

With metal baking tins there may be sparking. Try positioning the tin differ ently on the glass tray, and make sure the tin does not touch the interior walls.

If sparking continues, do not use this tin again in microwave combination mode.

Do not use paper based containers coated with aluminium foil, such as are sometimes provided with packet cake mixes. There is the danger of these catching fire.

Switch on the microwave setting for the total cooking time. The microwave setting should not be higher than 150 W.

Temperature settings, times and micro wave power settings in the Baking Chart are suggestions only. Select an average temperature and time for first attempts and adapt accordingly.

If the grease filter is in position in front of the fan grille opening this lengthens baking time.

At the end of the shorter time given, check to see whether the cake etc. is done. Insert a wooden or metal skewer in the centre. If it comes out clean with out dough sticking to it, the cake is ready.

Cleaning and care

Appliance front and control panel

All external surfaces and controls can

be cleaned using warm water with a little washing up liquid applied with a soft sponge.

Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft

cloth.

E-Cloth

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department, Part number 98013530, which is suit able for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals.

To prevent the risk of scratches and damage to the surface structure of glass, stainless steel and aluminium fronted appliances pay particular attention to the following cleaning instructions.

Glass fronted appliances

The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.

Avoid: –

abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow der cleaners and cream cleaners.

–

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

–

oven sprays.

Clean the door handle and the control elements regularly, preferably after each use. This will help prevent grease or other deposits adhering to surfaces and becoming impossible to remove.

Aluminium fronted appliances

Aluminium is affected by the way that light falls it, by the surrounding environ ment and by the angle you observe it from.

Aluminium surfaces and controls may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.

The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.

Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda, ac-

ids or chlorides,

– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-

der cleaners and cream cleaners.

–

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

–

stainless steel cleaners,

–

cleaning agents containing descaling agents,

–

diswasher detergent,

–

oven sprays.

–

Stainless steel surfaces

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a proprietary non-abrasive clean ing agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel.

Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda, ac-

ids or chlorides,

– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-

der cleaners and cream cleaners.

– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers

or sponges which have been previ ously used with abrasive cleaning agents.

Stainless steel coloured controls

The controls may suffer discolour ation or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.

Avoid:

cleaning agents containing soda, ac

–

ids or chlorides, abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow

–

der cleaners and cream cleaners. abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers

–

or sponges which have been previ-

ously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

– stainless steel cleaners, – oven sprays.

To help prevent re-soiling, proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure us ing a soft cloth.

Page 70

Cleaning and care

Oven interior

The oven interior is stainless steel. The high temperatures possible when oper ating in a traditional oven mode can cause the steel to darken slightly.

The oven interior is hot after use. Take care not to burn yourself. Clean the oven interior regularly, preferably after each use. If left too long clean ing becomes unnecessarily difficult, and in extreme cases impossible.

Turn the function selector to the Light nsetting and clean using a solution of hot water and washing up liquid or mild detergent applied with a sponge, soft brush or damp cloth. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

If anything has become burnt on, use a non-abrasive mild cream cleaner or a proprietary cleaner for stainless steel, applied with a non-scouring kitchen sponge.

Glass back panel

The glass back panel can be removed for cleaning.

^ Gently lift the glass panel and take it

out carefully.

^ Clean in the dishwasher or wash by

hand.

When washing the glass panel by hand lay it on a smooth surface, to avoid any damage.

Do not use any scouring agents. These cause scratches.

Do not use too much water on the cloth or sponge and do not let water or any other substance find its way into any openings.

Residues of fruit juices as well as cake mixtures are best removed while the oven is warm. Spillages of fruit juices can cause lasting discoloration.

If using an oven spray, the manufac turer’s instructions must be followed. Do not spray into any of the open ings.

Reverse the procedure to refit the glass panel with care. The openings in the back wall of the oven must not be blocked.

Page 71

Cleaning and care

Oven interior roof

If the oven interior roof is particularly soiled, the grill element can be lowered to make cleaning easier.

Wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it to avoid the danger of being burnt.

^ Pull the fixing knob downwards to

lower the grill element.

Door interior

Always keep the door interior clean. Do not use any scouring agent. Check the door and door seal at regular intervals for any sign of damage.

If any damage is noticed, the oven should not be used again in micro wave mode until the fault has been rectified by a service technician.

Accessories

Grease filter

The grease filter can be washed in hot water and washing up liquid, or in the dishwasher.

Rack

Wash and dry the rack after each use. Remove stubborn soils with a stainless steel cleaner.

Lower the grill element gently.

Do not use force to lower it as this could cause damage.

After cleaning the grill element, raise it gently back up again and secure. The fixing knob must engage.

Glass tray

The glass tray can be washed in hot water and washing up liquid, or in the dishwasher.

Do not use scouring agents. These would scratch.

Boiling rod

The boiling rod can be washed in a dishwasher.

Problem solving guide

Repairs to this appliance should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent service technician approved by Miele. Un authorised repairs could be danger ous.

The following can be corrected without calling the Miele Service Department:

What to do if . . . .

. . . the display area is dark

^ Check whether: – the appliance is correctly plugged in, – the mains fuse has blown (call the

Service Department),

– the time display had been switched

off (see Section on "Time of day display").

. . . a process will not start.

Check whether:

if operating in microwave mode the

–

appliance door is properly shut, if operating in microwave mode a

–

power setting and time have been entered,

if operating with a combination

–

programme, the following have been entered: a power setting, a time for the microwave mode,a time and a temperature for the conventional oven operating mode.

– if operating with an Automatic

programme the weight has been entered.

. . . no operating noise is heard when the appliance door is opened during a cooking process in conventional oven mode

. . . nothing happens when a touch control is pressed.

Check whether:

–

the indicator light for that control is lit up,

–

the programme lock is activated (see Section "Programme lock").

This is not a fault. If the door is opened during a cooking

process the door contact switch will switch off the heating and depending on the function chosen, the hot air fan.

. . . a noise is heard after a process has finished

This is not a fault. The cooling fan continues to run for a

short time. When the temperature has fallen sufficiently the fan switches off automatically.

If the door is opened during this run-on time the fan is switched off. If the door is then shut the fan will start again.

Page 73

Problem solving guide

. . . the microwave / heating functions but not the interior lighting.

Check whether the oven interior light

ing has been switched off, (see "En ergy saving functions").

If this is not the case, the halogen bulb needs replacing. Replace with a new one as follows:

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply, (switch off and un plug at the socket, or remove the fuse, or switch off at the isolator as appropriate).

Take out the halogen lamps (2.).

Exercise caution when changing a light bulb. Halogen lights get very hot

during use and will remain hot for some time after being switched off.

Do not touch the surface directly

when changing the bulb as grease particles from your fingers will adhere to the surface and damage it. Please follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Fit new halogen lamps.

Connection data for halogen lamps: 12 V, 10 W Temperature resistant to 300 °C, W271 socket, Osram, Type 64418

The pins must lie horizontally to the appliance. Push the lamps in until they engage.

^ Screw the lamp cover back on. ^ Reconnect the appliance to the

mains supply.

Loosen and remove the lamp covers (1.). This may be easier using a rub ber glove.

. . . the food is not sufficiently heated or is not cooked at the end of a set time

Check whether:

–

the cooking process has been inter rupted and was not restarted,

–

if cooking / reheating in microwave mode the correct time was selected for the setting chosen. A lower power setting normally re quires a longer time.

Page 74

Problem solving guide

. . . cakes or biscuits are not cooked after a recommended time

Check whether:

the correct temperature was set.

–

there has been a change to the rec

–

ipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a moister mix which would take longer to cook.

whether the grease filter had been

–

left in place. A longer time would be needed if this were the case.

. . . cakes or biscuits are unevenly browned

There will always be a degree of difference in browning.

^ If browning is very uneven, check: – whether the temperature was set too

high,

– whether the glass tray had been

pushed so far in that it touched the back wall,

–

whether the grease filter had been left in place on the back wall,

–

the colour and composition of the baking tins being used. Try using a different tin next time.

...food cools down too quickly after being reheated or cooked in micro wave mode.

When cooked by microwaves, food be gins to cook from the outside first, the

inside of the food relying on the slower conduction of heat. If food is cooked at a high power level it is possible that the heat may not have reached the centre of the food. During standing time heat is transferred to the centre of the food. Food may be warm in the middle but cool on the edge. When reheating food with different den sities, such as plated meals, it is sensible to start with a low power level and lengthen the time required.

. . . the minute minder does not work

The short time programmed for the minute minder can only start counting down when the appliance door is shut and the Start touch control has been pressed.

. . . the touch control for the short step system will not register.

Check whether:

–

microwave mode has been selected.

–

the time entered is less than 10 min utes. A time of more than 10 minutes cannot be stored.

Page 75

Problem solving guide

. . . strange noises are heard when the microwave or microwave / combi nation mode is being used.

Check whether:

sparks are being created by the use

–

of metallic crockery, (see Section on Suitable crockery).

the food is covered with aluminium

–

foil. If so, remove it.

. . . a programme can not be stored using "M".

Check whether:

– Microwave mode has been selected, – a power setting and time have been

entered.

. . . the required time for a MemoryProgramme stage can not be set

^ Check whether: – the total of time entered for all Mem-

ory-Programme stages with a power setting of 1200 W adds up to more than 10 minutes.

–

the total time entered for all the Mem ory-Programme stages with a power setting of 850 W adds up to more than 60 minutes.

. . . An "F" appears in the display field together with a number

This combination indicates a fault mes sage.

The fault message "F02" appears when the door is opened and at the same time the Start touch control is pressed.

Disconnect the appliance from the

power supply (switch off and remove the plug from the socket, or switch off at the isolator, and then reconnect im mediately.

The Fault message disappears.

This also applies to the fault message "F01".

If the fault message remains in the display field, or reappears after Start is pressed in, call the Service department.

If an F in combination with any other number appears e.g. "F10", "F11", "F12",

call the Service department.

Remember to quote the fault code displayed.
