Warning and Safety instructions
Use
Caution, danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by the oven.
Great care should be taken to ensure that small children do not
touch the appliance when it is being used. The hob and also external parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents and control panel can become quite hot.
Use of heat-resistant oven gloves is recommended:
–when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it.
When working with “Conventional” heating or when grilling, the element in the roof of the oven and the guard plate become very hot, and there is a danger of being burnt.
Wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it for
cleaning, to avoid the danger of burning.
Use only a Miele roast probe (core temperature probe) as supplied
with this appliance. If a replacement is necessary it can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts Dept or a Miele specialist dealer.
After using do not remove the roast probe until the oven interior is cool.
When not in use do not leave the roast probe in the oven, especially
when grilling. High grill temperatures could damage it.
Do not use force to pull it down as this can cause the element to
break.
Do not heat up unopened tins or jars of food in the oven, as pressure will build up and they will explode.
Do not push pots and pans around on the oven floor as this could
damage the surface.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door, or place heavy items on it.
This could damage the appliance. Take care in the region of the hinges. The oven door can support a maximum load of 10 kg.
Cover any food which is left in the oven to be kept hot. This avoids
the food drying out. It also prevents steam condensing and possibly leading to moisture damage in the oven.
If food is left in the oven after cooking, e.g. to take advantage of the
residual heat, select the lowest temperature available. Leave the function selector switch at the position set.
Do not switch the appliance off until the food has been removed. Otherwise there may be a build-up of condensation which could adversely affect the oven interior, and externally the control panel, the worktop surface or surrounding kitchen furniture.
Put any deep frozen products such as pizza on baking paper on the
rack. Do not place them on the baking tray or grill pan. This could cause the metal to distort to such an extent that it might be difficult to remove the tray/pan from the oven. The distortion would increase with subsequent use.

Warning and Safety instructions
General notes
Under no circumstances use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could give rise to a short circuit, or cause perma-
nent damage to the surface and to components, for which the manufacturer of the oven cannot accept any responsibility.
Do not leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oils and
fats as these can be a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.
Do not use the oven to heat up the room. Due to the high tempera-
tures radiated, objects left near the oven or hob could catch fire.
When using kitchen appliances connected to sockets near the oven, ensure that the cable cannot come in contact with the hot cooking
zones or get trapped in a hot oven door, which could melt the cable insulation and be dangerous.
Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cooking container. Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking, therefore when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked through. If in doubt select a longer cooking or reheating time.
It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly through-
out 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.
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.
Disposal of your old machine
Before discarding an old machine switch off and disconnect it from
the power supply. Cut off and render any plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the machine to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by noncompliance with safety instructions.

Description of the oven systems
Fan Heat D
This system works by the circulation of heated air.
A fan situated on the back wall of the oven sucks in the air, heats it over a ring element and blows the heated air through the carefully spaced openings in the rear panel of the oven.
The oven does not usually need to be pre-heated as the heated air reaches the food straight away.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven when roasting meat or baking bread made with dark flour.
Using the fan heating system you can bake and roast on different levels at the same time.
The heated air used by this system is of a lower temperature than that used with the Conventional heating system.
Auto Roast E
This setting offers the fan heat with Auto Roast. The oven heats initially to a high temperature which seals the meat to keep it succulent and tasty.
As soon as the high temperature has been reached, the oven temperature is automatically returned to the preselected setting.
Conventional heating A
With this conventional method of heating, radiant heat is directed on the food from above and below.
Pre-heating the oven is only necessary when
–baking biscuits or cakes with a short cooking time (up to approx. 30 minutes).
–baking some types of doughs.
–baking bread made with dark flour.
–roasting a joint of meat.
11
Description of the oven systems
Defrost G
Defrost can be operated without heating, or at a temperature of up to 50°C. When the defrost system is used without heating the air is circulated by the fan at room temperature.
Grill 1 ,
The inner part of the upper heating element acts as the grill. This will glow red for a few minutes after being switched on, and it is then ready for use. Use the Grill 1 setting for small quantities.
Intensive bake F
This method combines “Fan Heat” with “Conventional” heating, and is particularly useful for dishes that require a moist topping and crisp base like pizza and quiche lorraine.
Fan grill I
The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by the fan on the rear wall of the oven. This enables a lower temperature to be selected than for conventional grilling.
Grill 2 J
The entire upper heating element acts as the grill.
With this method the inner part of the grill will glow red a few minutes after being switched on. The outer part of the grill will remain noticeably darker, but will still produce the heat necessary to grill.
This method is particularly good for grilling large quantities of food using the grill pan to its full extent.
12
