Warning and Safety instructions
Oven operation
High temperatures can be produced by the oven.
Care should be taken to ensure that small children do not touch the ap­pliance when it is in use. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and control panel can become hot.
Use of heat-resistant oven gloves
is recommended: – when placing food in, turning, or re-
moving items from the oven. The top heating element and oven racks can become very hot and the risk of burns exists.
Always open the door carefully. – Let hot air or steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
Wait until the upper element is cool
before lowering it for cleaning, in order to avoid the risk of burns.
Do not use force to pull down the
top heating element as this can break it.
Always place the oven racks in
their desired location while the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating elements.
Caution: Heating elements may
be hot even though they are not glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not let cloth­ing or other flammable materials con­tact the heating elements or interior sur­faces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Do not let aluminum foil or the
meat probe contact hot heating ele­ments.
Do not push pots and pans on the
oven floor as this could scratch the surface.
Do not lean, sit, or place heavy
items on the open oven door. The door can support a maximum weight of 22 lbs (10 kg).
Cover any food left in the oven.
This will prevent the food from drying out and steam from condensing inside the oven. If condensation is ex­cessive, damage to the oven may occur.
Use only the Miele roast probe sup-
plied with the oven. If a replace­ment is necessary, it can be obtained from the Miele Parts Dept. or a Miele dealer.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
When not in use, do not leave the roast probe in the oven. High broil-
ing temperatures could damage it.
Do not heat unopened containers
of food in the oven, as pressure may build up and cause them to ex­plode.
To keep food warm after cooking,
take advantage of the residual heat or select the lowest temperature available.
Put any frozen products, such as
pizza, on aluminum foil or on the rack. Do not place them on the baking tray or broiling pan, as this could cause the metal to distort to such an extent that it may be difficult to remove the tray/pan from the oven.
Never use aluminum foil to line the oven floor or place pots and pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor when using "Top & Bottom Heat", "Bottom Heat" or the "Intensive Bake" modes, as this could cause the enamel on the oven floor to crack.
Flammable materials should never
be stored in an oven or near sur­face cooking units.
General notes
Never use a steam cleaner to
clean the oven. Pressurized steam could cause a short circuit, or cause permanent damage to the oven sur­face and/or components. The manufac­turer cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by steam cleaning.
Children should not be left alone or
unattended in an area where an oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be seriously injured.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when cooking with oils or fats as these can be a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother the fire or flame or use a dry chemical or foam fire extinguisher.
Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting
or hanging garments should never be worn while using the oven.
Do not use the oven to heat the
room. Due to the high tempera­tures radiated, objects left near the oven could ignite.

Warning and Safety instructions
When using kitchen appliances
connected to outlets near the oven, make certain that their cables do not contact with any cooking zones or get trapped in the oven door.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating ele­ments.
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked. Many factors will af­fect the overall cooking time, including the size or amount of food, the selected temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of the cooking container. Some foods may contain microorganisms which are only de­stroyed by thorough cooking. If in doubt, select a longer cooking time.
It is important that the heat is
allowed to spread evenly throug­hout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring or turning the food, or by observing a sufficiently long set time at the end of the cooking cycle.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine,
cut off the cable and remove the door in order prevent accidental injury to any children or animals who may at­tempt to play inside of it.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by non-com­pliance with safety instructions.

Oven Operation
Oven Operation
Description of the cooking modes
Convection
This mode cooks by circulating the heated air over and around the food.
The convection fan/heater combination located on the rear wall of the oven blows heated air through openings in the rear panel of the oven. Because of this, the oven usually does not need preheating as the heated air will reach the food immediately.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven when roasting meat.
Top Heat
Heat from the top element can be used to brown dishes or to finish dishes with a cheese topping.
Top & Bottom Heat
With this method of cooking, radiant heat is directed onto food from above and below.
Pre-heating the oven is only necessary when: – baking biscuits or cakes with a short
baking time.
baking certain types of doughs.roasting meat.
Use of the convection mode allows you to bake and roast on different levels at the same time.
Due to the uniform cooking that occurs when using the "Convection" setting, a lower temperature can be selected when using this mode.
Auto Roast
This setting offers convection cooking with an Auto Roast feature. The oven will initially heat up to a high tempera­ture in order to sear the meat and lock in the juices, thereby allowing it to re­main moist and tasty. Once this high temperature has been reached, the oven automatically returns to your se­lected temperature and continues cook­ing as in the "Convection" mode.
Bottom Heat
Select "Bottom Heat" at the end of a baking cycle for cakes which require extra browning on the bottom.
12
Oven Operation
Description of the cooking modes
Defrosting
Defrosting can be done without heat or at a temperature of up to 120°F (50°C). When Defrosting without heat, the circu­lated air will be at room temperature.
Intensive baking
This method combines "Convection" with "Bottom Heat" and is recom­mended for dishes that have a moist topping and crisp base such as pizza or quiche lorraine.
Fan Broiling
Hot air from the broiling element is blown over the food by the convection fan on the rear wall of the oven. This allows broiling at lower temperatures than in the "Broiling 1" or "Broiling 2" mode.
Broiling 1
The inner part of the upper heating ele­ment is used in this mode. It will glow red for a few minutes after it is se­lected, and is then ready for use. Use this mode for small quantities or thin pieces of food.
Broiling 2
The entire upper heating element is used for broiling.
In this mode, the inner part of the heat­ing element will glow red a few minutes after being turned on. The outer part of the element will remain noticeably dar­ker, but will still produce the heat necessary for broiling.
This mode is especially useful for broil­ing thicker cuts or large quantities of food distributed over the entire rack.

time). During cooking, the time of day will con­tinue to be displayed and the tempera­ture will change as cooking proceeds.
Shortly before the end of cooking time, the heating elements will automatically turn off and the Energy Conservation Feature (as described under "Oven operation") will be activated. "EC" will appear in the display instead of the oven temperature.
The heating elements will turn on again if: – the selected oven temperature is al-
tered
or, – the cooking time is extended. When the end of the cooking time has
been reached: – an audible tone will sound for ap-
proximately 5 seconds and
– the "l" symbol will flash. If the audible tone is not turned off, it
will continue to sound at 5 minute inter­vals as a reminder that the food is fin­ished. This reminder will continue for up to an hour.
Both the tone and flashing "l" can be cancelled by:
Pressing the ")" button, orTurning the Oven Mode Selector to
"0".
(If the food is not sufficiently cooked, additional cooking time can be en­tered.)

Timer operation
Setting the timer for automatic cooking.
There are three distinct ways that the timer can be used to control the cook­ing process:
1. The desired cooking time (dura­tion) can be selected. This causes the
oven to turn off automatically after a ma­nual start.
2. A start time and duration can be selected. The oven will automatically
turn on at the specified start time, and automatically turn off after cooking for the desired duration.
3. A finish time and duration can be selected. The oven will turn off at the
selected time after having cooked for the desired duration. The start time is automatically calculated by the oven in this situation.
To set the oven to turn off automati­cally after a manual start:
Turn the Oven Mode Selector to the
desired setting.
To select a start time duration:
Turn the Oven Mode Selector to the desired setting.
Press the "f" (start) button.
"0:00" will appear in the display. Use the "+" button to set the desired
start time.

Use the "+" button, to set the desired
cooking time in hours and minutes.
Once the current time of day reap-
pears.
Select the end of cooking time:
Please note the following:
If only a start time is programmed, the oven will start right away, without any delay. Exception: When using the roast probe, there will be a delay before the oven starts.
Do not program too long of a delay when baking. Cake mixtures will dry out and the leavening agent will be less effective.
Checking or changing pro­grammed times:
To check the programming
Press the button corresponding to the time you wish to check.
"f" (start) The programmed start time is dis­played. It will go out as soon as the oven turns on.
Press the ")" (end) button. "0:00"
will appear in the display.

Baking Recommendations
Baking Recommendations
The following settings are recom­mended for baking:
ConvectionIntensive BakingTop & Bottom Heat
Baking using the "Convec­tion" mode
Most types of heat-resistant pans or dishes are suitable for convection bak­ing, including thin-walled and non-re­flective metal molds.
Several levels can be used at the same time for baking. The recommended bak­ing levels are:
1 tray =
1st runner from the bottom 2 trays =
1st and 3rd runners from the bottom 3 trays =
1st, 2nd and 4th runners from the
bottom.
When baking moist muffins, cakes or bread, do not bake on more than two levels.
Baking using the "Intensive Baking" mode
This method of baking is particularly useful for:
– dishes that require a moist topping
and crisp base, such as pies, pizzas and quiche lorraine, or dishes where the base has not been pre-baked.
Any heat-resistant baking pan can be used.
Put the cake on the 1st runner from the bottom. If the base is overcooked, use a higher level runner the next time.
Baking using the "Top & Bot­tom Heat" mode
Dark metal or enamel pans with a matt finish are preferable. Heat resistant glass or thermoplastic dishes can also be used. These baking pans will allow the cake or bread to brown evenly.
Avoid thin-walled or bright, reflec­tive metal moulds. These will give uneven browning results.
When using the "Convection" mode, lower baking temperatures are required than when using "Top & Bottom Heat". See the baking chart for further recom­mendations.
28
Pre-heating the oven is only necess­ary when baking:
– cakes or biscuits with a very short
baking time, or
– sponge cake or similar mixtures. Select the baking level (rack runner) ac-
cording to the height of the item:
1 or 2* for deep cakes 2 or 3* for biscuits and shallow cakes
*counted from the bottom
Baking Recommendations
General notes
Place oblong pans in the oven as shown in the illustration.
Deep-frozen products such as pizzas should be placed on aluminum foil di­rectly on the rack.
Never use aluminum foil to line the oven floor or place pots and pans or baking sheets directly on the floor when using "Top & Bot­tom Heat", "Bottom Heat", or In­tensive Baking" modes, as this could cause the enamel on the oven floor to crack.
The Baking Chart gives sugges­tions for temperatures, baking le­vels and cooking times.
In general:
For even browning, select – a medium temperature. Increasing the temperature and reduc-
ing the time can have an adverse effect on even browning.
– Select a baking level according to
the recipe and selected temperature.
– Just before the end of the baking
time, test to see if the cake is done by inserting a metal or wooden skewer into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, without dough or crumbs sticking to it, the cake is done.
Use a deeper pan for moist fruit cakes and multi-layer cakes to minimize splashing in the oven.

Roasting Recommendations
Roasting Recommendations
We recommend the following settings for roasting in the oven:
Auto Roast Top & Bottom Heat
The roast probe can be used in either of the above modes. See the "Roasting using the Roast Probe" section.
Always remember to install the grease filter in the back of the oven before roasting.
If a covered pot is used, the following containers are suitable: roasting pans, heat-resistant glass, Aluminum foil, earthenware.
Make sure that the pot and lid have heat resistant handles.
Place the covered pot on the rack.
Do not place the pot on the oven floor.
The meat should be put into a cold oven for for Convection and Automatic Roasting. Pre-heat the oven for Top & Bottom Heating.
Use roasting level 1 for roasting large cuts of meat. Use roasting level 2 when roasting poultry weighing up to 2 lbs (1 kg), or a smaller cut of meat, or fish.
When using "Convection" or "Auto Roast" a temperature of approximately 70°F/40°C lower can be used than when roasting in the "Top & Bottom Heat" mode.
The larger the cut of meat to be roasted, the lower the temperature that should be used. When roasting more than 6 lbs (3 kg), select a temperature about 20°F/10°C lower than the one given in the "Roast­ing Recommendations" chart. The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the exterior will become crisp.
32
For roasting directly on the rack K, the temperature needs to be about 30°F/20°C lower than when roasting in a covered pot L.
The roasting time will depend on the type of meat, the size, and the thick­ness of the cut.
Roasting Recommendations
Calculating the roasting time:
Depending on the type of meat being roasted, the traditional method is to allow 15 to 20 minutes per pound, ad­justing the time as roasting progresses to obtain the desired result.
Another method is to multiply the thick­ness of the roast in inches (cm) by the time per inch (cm) for the type of meat being cooked (see the chart below).
Type of meat time/inch (cm)
Beef / Venison Pork / Veal / Lamb Roast beef
Example: Beef roast, 3
1
/2" x 35 mins. per inch = 122 mins. or
3
1
/2 inches (8 cm) thick
thickness of meat
35-45 (15-18) mins. 30-40 (12-15) mins.
20-25 (8-10) mins.
8 cm x 15 mins. per cm = 120 mins. roasting time.
Please note:
Do not select a roasting temperature higher than recommended. The meat will brown, but will not be thoroughly cooked.
Browning only occurs towards to end of the roasting time. If using a covered pot, remove the lid about halfway through roasting if more intensive browning is desired.
Useful hints
Roasting in a covered pot L
Season the meat and place it in the pot. Add some butter, margarine or a little oil. Add about 1/2 cup (125 ml) of water when roasting a large piece of meat (4-7 lbs (2-3 kg)) or roasting poultry with a high fat content.
Roasting on the rack K
Place a little water in the roasting tray under the wire rack. Add a little oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on the top. Do not add too much liquid to the tray during cooking as this will hinder the browning process.
Roasting poultry
For a crisp skin, baste the poultry ten minutes before completion of cooking with slightly salted water.
Roasting deep frozen meat
Deep frozen meats up to approx. 3 lbs (1.5 kg) in weight can be roasted with­out first being defrosted. The roasting time will be about 10 minutes per lb. (20 min. per kg) longer. Larger pieces of meat should be defrosted before cooking.
Once finished taking the roast out of the oven, covering it with aluminum foil and letting it stand for about 10 minutes will help retain juices and prevent the roast from drying out.
33
Roasting Recommendations
Roasting Recommendations
Roasting using the Roast Probe
Use of the roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored sim­ply and reliably.
The tip of the probe measures the core temperature at the center of the meat while it is cooking.
When the pre-selected core tempera­ture is reached, the oven automatically turns itself off.
Using the roast probe for best effect.
Prepare the meat in the usual man-
ner and place it the oven (in a pot or
on the rack). Roasting bags or aluminum foil may be
also be used, but only if left open at the ends. Insert the probe through the foil or bag.
Insert the probe into the center of the
meat, making certain that it does not
touch a bone or fatty portion of the
meat. If it is inserted into fat or
touches a bone, the oven may turn
off too soon and the meat may be
undercooked.
When roasting poultry, the best place to insert the probe is in the thickest part of the meat between the thigh and body.
Insert the short end of the probe into the socket on the right side of the oven until it clicks into place. A sug­gested roasting temperature of 140°F/60°C will appear in the display once the probe is correctly inserted.
34
Roasting Recommendations
Choose the desired cooking mode
using the Oven Mode Selector:
– Automatic Roast
– Top & Bottom Heat
– Convection
– Fan Broiling
Please see the additional guidelines
under "Broiling". If the suggested temperature is appro-
priate for your recipe, it is automatically stored once the indicator lamp goes out. The core temperature can, how­ever, be changed if so desired (see "Changing the core temperature").
The core temperature selected will de­pend upon the food being cooked. Please consult the roasting chart.
Time remaining display
Once the oven has monitored the cook­ing process for a length of time, it will calculate and display the remaining cooking time instead of the core tem­perature. From this point onward, the core temperature can no longer be dis­played.
When the indicator lamp in the "– /+" button goes out, the actual core tem­perature will appear in the display. The lowest core temperature that can be displayed is 68°F (20°C). This will be displayed until the roast probe registers a greater temperature.
35
Roasting Recommendations
The time remaining that is displayed is an estimate. As cooking continues, the time will be revised, and an increas­ingly accurate estimate will be shown. If the selected core temperature or oven mode is altered after this point, the time remaining will be canceled and the core temperature will reappear. If heat is lost due to the oven door being opened, the time remaining will be recalculated.
The oven heaters will automatically be turned off shortly before the end of cooking.
The Energy Conservation Feature (as described under "Oven operation") will now be activated. If the "p" (tempera­ture) button is pressed, "EC" will appear.
If the oven temperature is altered or the core temperature increased, the oven heaters will turn on again.
When the selected core temperature has been reached: – an audible tone will sound for ap-
proximately 5 seconds, and
– the "e" (roast probe) symbol will
flash.
If the tone is not canceled, it will con­tinue to sound every 5 minutes for an hour as a reminder that the food is done.
The tone can be canceled by:
pressing the "e" button,orturning the Oven Mode Selector to
"0".
36
Any temperatures entered will also be canceled.
If the food is not sufficiently cooked, a higher core temperature should be se­lected.
Roasting Recommendations
Changing the core temperature
A temperature between 67°F (20°C) and 209°F (99°C) can be selected as follows:
When the "– /+" indicator lamp is on:
Enter the desired temperature using
the "– /+" button.
If the indicator lamp on the "– /+" is off:
Press the "e" button.
Enter the desired temperature using
the "– /+" button.
Please note:
This process can also be programmed for a delayed start by using the timer.
If the roast probe is left in the food at the end of cooking, the display will show an initial increase in core tem­perature then a decrease. This is nor­mal.
If the meat is not thoroughly cooked upon completion of the programmed cooking, reinsert the probe in a differ­ent location and continue cooking. (This situation may occur if the meat was too thick for the tip of the roast probe to reach the center, for example.)
The time necessary to roast meat using the probe is similar to that used when cooking by time only.
When finished, cover the meat with alu­minum foil and allow it to stand for approx. 10 minutes. During this time the core temperature will rise another 10-20°F (5-10°C).

Defrosting in the oven
We recommend defrosting at room tem­perature (oven temperature set to 0°). An oven temperature of up to 120°F/50°C can be selected, however.
Where possible, remove the packa­ging and put the food into an appro­priate dish.
Put the rack in the 1st roasting level from the bottom, and place the dish on the rack.
Turn the Oven Mode Selector to "Defrosting".

Casseroles
Casseroles
The following oven settings are recom­mended for cooking casseroles:
"Convection""Top & Bottom Heat"
The following types of dishware are suit­able for this type of slower cooking:
- covered pots made of heat proof glass
- china,
- earthenware pots
Please note:
Dishes that need to be cooked in their own juice or steam (i.e. vegetables) should be covered so that they don’t dry out. If no lid is available, aluminum foil can be used.
Cook without a lid when a crusty finish or topping is desired (meat or au gratin dishes).
Make sure your pots have heat re­sistant handles and knobs.
Place the rack in the 1st runner from the bottom, and place the prepared casserole on top.
Select the Oven Mode and tempera­ture.
Convection. . . . . 340-380°F/170-190°C
Top & Bott om
Heat . . . . . . . . . . 380-410°F/170-210°C
Cooking times
Consult your cook book.
Useful hint:
When cooking more than one item, one dish can be placed on top of the other. Invert the lid of the bottom dish and place the dish to be browned on top.
Poaching
Fish or fruit can be poached in the oven using a covered dish.
Bottling/Canning
Bottling should only be performed by an experienced cook who has received proper training in this method of pres­erving fruit and vegetables, and under­stands the chemical processes in­volved.
40
Broiling
Three broiling options are available in the oven:
Broiling 1
For broiling small quantities of thin cuts of meat and for browning small dishes of food. Only the inner part of the upper heating element is energized.
Broiling
Fan Broiling
For broiling larger items, such as poultry or rolled meat. With this method, the roast probe can also be used to monitor the meats inter­nal temperature. See "Roasting with the roast probe" for further information.
For best results:
– Pre-heat the oven for approximately
5 minutes with the oven door shut.
– Broiling with the oven door shut
saves energy and minimizes cooking odors.
– For "Fan Broiling":
always install the grease filter in the back of the oven when using this mode.
Broiling 2
For broiling large quantities or thick cuts of meat and for browning food in large dishes. The entire upper heating element is used.
41
Broiling
Preparing the food
Clean and season the meat.Add a little oil if necessary. Other
fats will quickly become black or cause the food to smoke. A little but­ter can be added to chicken if desired.
– To enhance the taste of fish or fish
filets, add a little salt or squeeze a little lemon juice over the fish before cooking.
Broiling on the rack
Insert the broiling pan at the appropri­ate level for the type of food being broiled:
thin cuts = level 3 or 4 from the bottom thicker cuts = level 1 or 2 from the bottom It foods of a similar thickness are
broiled at the same time, the cooking time for each item should be about the same.
Most items should be turned over half way through cooking.
Broiling on the spit
For broiling thicker items, such as stuffed meat, poultry or kebobs.
Assemble the broiling pan and rack as shown.
Place the food on the rack. Select the desired Broiling mode.
42
Assemble the rotisserie as shown.
Select one of the "Broiling" modes. Put the broiling pan holding the as-
sembled rotisserie in the oven, on the 1st level from the bottom.
The spit should fit into the motor slot at the rear of the oven.
Two special accessories for rotisserie broiling, a meat and poultry clamp, and a kebob holder are available from your Miele Dealer or the Miele Parts Depart­ment.
Cooking temperatures
Food to be broiled Recommended
temperature
Thin cuts
such as chops or steak 530°F/275°C
Thicker cuts
such as chicken or kebobs 470°F/240°C
To broil thicker pieces of food grad­ually, sear the meat at a high tempera­ture, then continue broiling at a lower temperature so the food cooks through to the center.
Broiling
Broiling time
Fish, fish filets and thin meat usually need about 5-6 minutes a side depend­ing on their texture. Thicker pieces will take longer. With rolled meat allow ap­proximately 25 minutes per inch (10 minutes per cm) diameter.
Broiling tips:
One way of finding out how well a piece of meat has been cooked is to press 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 a large resistance, it is
thoroughly cooked ("well done").
Basting brush
A basting brush with an angled handle is available from the Miele Parts Depart­ment.

Cleaning and care
Oven door and control panel
Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent or hot soap and water solution. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning and care
Accessories
Roast probe
Wipe with a damp cloth.
Do not use a scouring agent, as this may scratch the glass.
For white ovens, we recommend clean­ing the following after each use:
the oven door handle andthe control panel.
Use a damp, soapy cloth. This will pre­vent any spills or grease from being burnt on and becoming impossible to remove.
Stainless steel front
Never use cleaners containing sand, baking soda or scouring agents. These will scratch the steel.
Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner applied with an even pressure. Wipe with a damp cloth and rub dry with a soft cloth.
Do not soak the roast probe in water, and washer.
Runners
Oven runners and racks are most eas­ily cleaned by soaking them in a solu­tion of hot water and dishwasher or laundry detergent. Wipe clean with a scrub pad.
Baking tray, roasting/broiling pan, rack, spit and frame:
– wash and dry after each use. Stubborn residues that will not easily
wash off can be removed; – from stainless steel with a stainless
steel cleaner.
– from enameled surfaces by soaking
and softening residues with hot water, then brushing with a soft nylon brush or sponge.
do not put it in the dish-
Grease filter
Clean with dishwashing liquid or in the dishwasher.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning and care
Oven interior
The interior oven surfaces are coated with either:
b "Clean-Enamel", or c catalytic enamel.
The oven should be cleaned regu­larly, preferably after each use. If left dirty for too long, cleaning will become unnecessarily difficult and in extreme cases, impossible.
Never use hard brushes, steel wool, scouring pads, hard sponges or scouring agents on the enamel coat­ings. These can scratch and damage both types of enameled surfaces.
Important: Clean Enamel surfaces should be cleaned the oven temperature to the level necessary to clean the Catalytic Ena­mel as described below.
before increasing
b Clean Enamel
Clean Enamel is a specially hardened enamel with an extremely smooth sur­face.
Most baking and roasting residues can be easily removed while the oven is still warm using a sponge, liquid detergent and hot water. If residue becomes baked onto the surface, remove it using a razor blade scraper and a non­scouring cleaner.
Fruit juice or grease splashes may cause permanent discoloration or dulling of the Clean Enamel if not cleaned immediately after use.
Catalytic Enamel roof and side liners are also standard on some models
If an oven spray is used, use it on Clean Enamel surfaces, moving the Catalytic Enamel pa­nels. Follow the spray manufac­turer’s instructions carefully. Oven
spray will damage Catalytic Ena­mel surfaces.

only
Cleaning and care
c Catalytic Enamel
This type of enamel coating causes grease and oil deposits to carbonize and "burn off" at temperatures above 390°F (200°C). The higher the tempera­ture, the more effective this process becomes. Deposits of spices, syrups, cake mixtures, etc., cannot be removed from the Catalytic Enamel in this way. These types of deposits should be removed by using hot, soapy water and a sponge while the soil is still fresh.
Do not use oven spray on Cata­lytic Enamel.
Allowing deposits to remain for too long will allow them to bake onto the ena­mel, and make it harder to clean in the future.
Cleaning normally soiled Catalytic Enamel ovens:
Allow the oven to cool. Clean the oven roof, sides and floor
using warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or nylon brush.
Do not use oven spray on Cata­lytic Enamel.
Any remaining deposits will gradually disappear as the oven is normally used for cooking at temperatures above 390°F (200°C).
Replacements for permanently dam­aged rear wall panels can be pur­chased from the Miele Parts Depart­ment.

Correcting minor problems
Installation, maintenance and re­pairs to the electrical components of this appliance should only be per­formed by trained personnel. Unauthorized repairs can be dan­gerous.
Correcting minor problems
. . . the heating elements in the oven function, but not the light?
The halogen lamps are bad. They can be replaced as follows:
Turn off the electrical supply to the oven at the circuit breaker.
Some minor problems can be easily corrected as follows:
What to do if . . . desired
. . . the oven does not heat up?
Check that:
The Oven Mode Selector is set to the desired cooking mode, and the tem­perature control is set to the correct temperature.
The Child Safety Feature is deacti­vated.
The circuit breaker has not tripped. Contact a qualified electrician or the Miele Service Department if it has.
The timer has not been set.
Take the runners out of the oven.
Raise the small door found on either side of the inner edge of the oven.
51
Correcting minor problems
Pull on the metal tab that is now visible to remove the lamp holder.
Remove and exchange the halogen lamp: 12 V, 10 W, heat resistant up to 572°F/300°C.
Reassemble in the reverse order.
. . . cakes and biscuits are not cooked after following the times given in the chart?
Check if:
the correct temperature was se­lected.
there was a change to the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs will make a moister mix which would need longer to cook.
the grease filter has been removed. If it is installed, the baking times need to be lengthened by approxi­mately 10 to 15 minutes.
. . . uneven browning occurs.
A slight unevenness is normal, espe­cially when cooking on several levels. Baking/browning information available on food product sheets are obtained using standard tests and single level baking only.
. . . no noise is heard when the oven door is opened during operation?
This is normal. If the door is opened during operation, a safety switch causes the oven heaters and the convection fan to turn off.
. . . a noise is heard after baking, roasting or broiling?
This is normal. The cooling fan will continue to run for a short time. When the internal tempera­ture has fallen sufficiently, the fan will turn off automatically.
52
If the item being baked is browning very unevenly, and you are using the "Convection" mode, check:
that the oven temperature was not set too high, or
that the grease filter is not installed.
If baking using "Top & Bottom Heat"
check the color and composition of the baking pans being used. Light colored, shiny, or thin walled pans re­flect the heat and are more likely to give uneven results.
Correcting minor problems
. . . "F" and a number appear in the oven display.
If "F3" appears, the roast probe is faulty. Remove the probe from its socket and the code will disappear.
If "F6" appears, the oven has auto­matically turned itself off during operation. This is a safety feature designed to protect the oven if it has been operated for an exceedingly long time. The maximum operating time depends upon the oven mode selected. The oven can be reset by turning the Oven Mode Selector to "0" and then restarting the program again.
If "F7" appears in the display, the cooling fan has stopped turning.
If "F8" appears in the display, the Convection fan has stopped turning.
If "F9" appears in the display, the maximum temperature of the oven has been exceeded, and the oven has turned itself off automatically. As soon as the temperature has fallen to an acceptable level, the fault code will disappear. The oven will turn it­self on again automatically.
. . . the timer display is dark when the oven is first turned on.
This is normal. If the time display has been turned off, the display will remain dark. If the "f" and ")" buttons are pressed simultaneously, "12.00" should appear in the display.
. . . the time of day cannot be entered after a power outage.
Check whether the Oven Mode Selec­tor is set to "0". The time of day can only be entered when the Oven Mode Selector is set to "0".
. . . the time remaining is not dis­played when using the roast probe; or the Energy Conservation Feature is not activated when cooking with the roast probe or timer.
This is normal. Certain conditions must be met before the "time remaining" or "Energy Conser­vation" features are activated. Some­times these conditions are not met.
If "F7", "F8", "F9" or any other un­explained fault codes are displayed, please call the Miele Service Depart­ment.
