Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance complies with all rele­vant legal safety requirements. Im­proper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both per­sonal 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
safety, on the installation, operation
and care of the appliance. This way
you will avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the appliance.
Do not let children access the ap­pliance or its controls. Supervise its
use by the elderly or infirm.

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

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Before connecting the appliance to

the mains supply make sure that
the voltage and frequency correspond
to the rating on the data plate, other­wise the appliance could be damaged.
Consult a competent person if in doubt.

The electrical safety of this ap-

pliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system, which complies with local and
national regulations. It is most import­ant that this basic safety requirement is
tested by a qualified electrician. The
manufacturer cannot be held respon­sible for the consequences of an inade­quate earthing system.

This appliance must only be oper-

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

Correct usage

The appliance is intended for do-

mestic use to cook food, and in
particular to bake, roast, defrost, cook,
dry fruit etc, 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
appliance.

Never open the casing of the ap-

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

7

Warning and Safety instructions

Installation work and repairs may

only be carried out by suitably
qualified and competent persons to en­sure safety. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be dan­gerous. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for unauthorized work.

The appliance is only completely

isolated from the electricity supply
when:

– it is switched off at the wall socket
– or the mains fuse is withdrawn
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in

countries where this is applicable).

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.
danger of overheating).

Use

Caution, danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by
the oven.

Great care should be taken to en-

sure that small children do not
touch the appliance when it is being
used. The oven 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.

Do not use force to pull it down as

this can cause the element to
break.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use plastic containers.
They may melt at high tempera-

tures. The oven could be damaged.

Do not heat up unopened tins or

jars of food in the oven, as press­ure can build up and they may ex­plode. This could result in injury or
damage.

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 cook-

ing, 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.

General notes

Do not leave the appliance unat-

tended 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 tempera­tures radiated, objects left near the
oven could catch fire.

Under no circumstances use a

steam cleaner to clean this ap­pliance. Pressurised steam could give
rise to a short circuit.

9

Warning and Safety instructions

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 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 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.

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.
Danger of electric shock.

Using alcohol in your recipes

Often alcoholic drinks such as
rum, cognac, wine etc. are used when
preparing dishes and oven-cooking
them. The high temperatures can
cause the alcohol to separate out.
Please take note that under adverse cir­cumstances the alcohol can catch light
on the hot elements.

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. This should be done
by a competent person. 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.

"Fan Heat D" (lower oven) or to "Con-
ventional (Top and bottom heat) A"
(upper oven).

Select the highest temperature.

Depending on the model the timer can
also be used to set the finish time.

Ensure the room is well ventilated
during this process.

12

Description of the 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 pre-se­lected setting.

Description of the systems

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.

Defrost G

No heating is used.
At this setting air at room temperature

is circulated by the fan, for gentle de­frosting.

Grill ,

The inner part of the upper heating ele­ment acts as the grill. This will glow red
a few minutes after switching it on and
is then ready for use.

Pre-heat the grill for 5 minutes with the
oven door closed, before placing the
food on the rack.

13

Oven - use

Oven - use

The double oven has a choice of two
ovens with differing heating systems.

Temperature selector -e

Each oven has its own temperature se­lector. Select the appropriate tempera­ture for the food to be cooked. The tem­perature can be freely selected within
the given range.

Turn the temperature selector only
in a clockwise direction, until you
feel a resistance, and back, other­wise the control could be damaged.
Defrost G: Do not set a tempera­ture when selecting "Defrosting".

When the temperature selector is
turned to a temperature, the indicator
light above this selector comes on.

When the temperature chosen is
reached, the heating element switches
itself off. However, as soon as the tem­perature falls below that selected, the
heating switches on again automati­cally.

Accessories

Accessories

Baking tray, roasting / grill pan
and rack

The baking tray, roasting / grill pan and
rack are fitted with non-tip safety not­ches which prevent them being pulled
right out when they only need to be par­tially pulled out.

When pushing the tray, pan and
rack back in, always ensure that the
safety notches are at the rear of the
oven. (See illustration).

Roasting filter

When roasting on the rack, in an open
pot or using "Fan Heat D" or "Auto
Roast E" make sure that you fit the
roasting filter in front of the fan opening.

The droplets of fat caught up in the
circulating air are deposited on the
roasting filter. This helps to keep the
oven and the area behind the interior
back panel cleaner.

The tray, pan and rack can then only
be taken out of the oven by raising
them upwards and then pulling out.

18

Accessories

Handle

(depending on model)

To take the baking trays or the roast­ing / grill pan out of the oven, or to put
them into it.

Anti-splash tray

(depending on model)

Baking

Baking

When choosing which oven to use
take into account both the height of
the baking tin and the height that
the baking will reach once it has
risen.

The following settings are recom­mended for baking:

– Fan Heat D
– Conventional A

"Fan Heat D"

Several levels can be used at the same
time for baking. The recommended po­sitions are:

1 tray = 1st runner from the bottom
2 trays = 1st and 3rd runners

from the bottom

3 trays = 1st, 2nd and 5th runners

from the bottom

Bakin tins and dishes

for the best baking results make sure
that you choose baking tins or dishes
of a material suitable for the particular
heatin system.

– "Fan Heat D"

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

– "Conventional A"

The following baking tins give an
evenly browned result:
Dark metal or enamel tins with a matt
finish are preferable. Heat resistant
glass or thermoplastic trays dishes
can be used.
Avoid thin-walled and bright, non-re­flective metal moulds. These will give
uneven browning results.

When baking moist biscuits, cakes
or bread, do not bake on more than
two levels.

Remember to remove the roasting
(grease) filter from in front of the fan
opening. Otherwise the baking time
will be longer.

With the "Fan Heat D" setting lower
baking temperatures are needed than
with the "Conventional A" setting. See
the baking charts.

26

Baking

"Conventional A" setting

Avoid thin-walled and bright, non-re­flective metal moulds. These will
give uneven browning results.

Pre-heat the oven only for:
– cakes / biscuits with a very short bak-

ing time (up to 30 minutes),

– victoria sponge and similar mixtures.
– bread made with dark flour.

Select runner height, according to
height of the item:

– Upper oven
tray baking, biscuits and "flat" cakes

= 1st runner (from floor)
– Lower oven e
large (deep) cakes = 1st or 2nd runner

tray baking, biscuits and "flat" cakes

= 1st or 2nd runner.

-

General notes

Deep-frozen products such as pizzas

should be placed on baking paper on
the rack.

Use the deeper roasting tray for moist
fruit cakes and multi-layer cakes, to
minimize splashes in the oven.

The Baking Chart gives sugges­tions for temperature, runner height
and timing.

For even browning ­– in general select the middle tem-

perature.

Increasing the temperature and re­ducing the time can have an
adverse effect on even browning.

– Select the runner height according

to the recipe and the setting chosen.

– Just before the end of baking time

test to see if the cake is done.
Insert a metal or wooden skewer into
the centre.
If it comes out clean, without dough
or crumbs sticking to it, the cake is
ready.

Place oblong tins in the oven as shown
in the illustration.

Roasting in the oven

Roasting in the oven

The lower oven is normally more ap­propriate for roasting.
The upper oven is not so suitable, ex­cept for small roasts, preferably
covered.

We recommend the following settings
for roasting in the oven:

– Auto roast E
– Conventional A

Auto roast E:
When roasting on the rack or in an
open tin make sure the roasting
(grease) filter is fitted in front of the
fan in the back of the oven interior
before starting.

We recommend roasting in a covered
pot L:

– This ensures that sufficient stock re-

mains for making gravy.

– The oven stays cleaner, too.

The meat should be put into a cold
oven.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven to the tem­perature recommended in the recipe
when cooking roast beef or beef fillet.

Use shelf position 1 for roasting.
Exception: Use shelf position 2 when
roasting poultry weighing up to 1 kg, a
cut of meat, or fish.

The "Auto roast E" system uses an ap­proximately 40°C lower roasting tem-
perature than the "Conventional" heat­ing system.

The bigger the quantity to be roasted,
the lower the temperature.
When roasting more than 3 kg select a
temperature about 10°C lower than the
one given in the "Roasting" chart.
The roasting process will take a bit
longer, but the meat will be cooked
evenly and the exterior will become
crisp.

For roasting directly on the rack K
the temperature needs to be about
20°C lower than for roasting in a
covered pot L.

Roasting pots with a lid, made from
earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china
or glass, and roasting foil are suitable.

Make sure that the pot and lid have
heat-resistant handles.

Place the covered pot on the rack.

30

When roasting directly on the rack re­member to always put the roasting pan
into the oven together with the rack.

The roasting time will depend on the
type of meat, the size and thickness of
the cut.

Roasting in the oven

Calculating roasting time:

The traditional British method is to allow
15 to 20 minutes to the lb, according to
type of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes,
adjusting length of time as roasting pro­ceeds, to obtain the required result.

Alternatively, multiply
the height of the joint by
the time per cm for the type of meat,
(see the roasting chart).

Type of meat time per cm

height of meat

Beef / Venison
Pork / Veal / Lamb
Sirloin / Fillet

Example:
Beef roast, 8 cm high
8 x 15 mins. per cm = 120 mins. roast­ing time

15-18 mins.
12-15 mins.

8-10 mins.

Please note:

Do not select a roasting temperature
which is higher than that recom­mended.The meat will become brown,
but will not be cooked properly.

Roasting in the oven

Useful hints

Roasting in a covered pot L

Season the meat and place in the pot.
Add some knobs of butter or margarine
or a little oil or cooking fat. Add about
1/8 litre of water when roasting a big
lean joint of meat (2-3 kg) or roasting
poultry with a high fat content.

Roasting on the rack K

Place a little water in the tray. Add a
little fat or 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 finish, baste the poultry ten
minutes before the end of cooking time
with slightly salted water.

Roasting deep frozen meat

Deep frozen meat should be defrosted
beforehand.

Browning only occurs towards the end
of the roasting time. Remove the lid
about halfway through the roasting time
if a more intensive browning effect is
desired.

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 juices when the meat
is carved.

32

Defrosting

Turn the oven function selector to
"Defrost G".

Do not select any temperature set­ting.

– Where possible remove the packa-

ging and put the food to be de­frosted on a baking tray or into a
dish.

– All meat and poultry should be fully

defrosted before cooking. Do not
use the liquids from defrosting.

– When defrosting poultry put it on the

rack, one level higher than a tray put
in to catch the defrosted liquid, so
that the meat is not lying in this liquid.

It is particularly important to ob­serve food hygiene rules when de­frosting poultry. Do not use the liq­uid from the defrosted poultry. Pour
it away, and wash the tray, the sink
and your hands.

Defrosting

Do not refreeze food once it has
thawed.

The time needed for defrosting de­pends on the type and weight of the
food, and at what temperature it was
deep frozen.

N.B. Put the tray back in the oven if
roasting on the rack.

– Fish does not need to be fully de-

frosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently soft to
take herbs and seasoning.

33

Casseroles

Casseroles

When choosing which oven to use,
take into account the size of the
casserole dish with its lid.

Casseroles

The following oven settings are recom­mended:

Please note:

Cover dishes which are to be cooked

in their own juice and/or steam, eg du­chesse potatoes or vegetables, so that
they do not dry out. If there is no lid use
aluminium foil or damp cooking parch­ment.

– Fan Heat D
– Conventional A

The following dishes are suitable for
this type of slower cooking:
covered pots made of ovenproof glass
and china, and earthenware pots,
which could also be used as serving
dishes. They should have heat-resistant
handles and knobs.

Put the rack in at the 1st runner
height from the bottom, and place
the prepared casserole with the food
for braising or stewing on this.

Select the oven setting and the tem-
perature.

Fan Heat D . . . . . . . . . . . . . 170-190°C

Conventional A . . . . . . . . . . 190-210°C

Cooking times

Consult your cook book.

Cook without a lid when a crusty fin­ish or topping is required, eg for meat
or au gratin dishes.

Useful hint

One dish can be placed on top of the
other. Invert the lid of the bottom dish.
Put dishes to be browned at the top.

Poaching

Fish or fruit can be poached in the
oven in a covered dish.

Bottling

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

Instructions for bottling in this oven are
available from the Miele Home Econo­mist.

34

Grilling

When choosing which oven to use
take into account the height of the
food to be grilled.

Pre-heat the grill for approx.
5 minutes with the oven door shut.

Grilling with the oven door shut
saves energy and minimizes cook­ing smells.

Preparing food for grilling

Clean, wipe and season. Do not salt
slices of meat beforehand as this de­tracts from the taste.

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.

Grilling

Grilling on the rack

Assemble the grill pan, anti-splash
tray (if available) and rack as shown.

Place the food on the rack.
Turn the oven function selector to the

"Grill ," setting.

Select the oven for grilling accord­ing to the size of the food to be
grilled. Use the upper oven for flat­ter items of food.

Set the temperature:

Food to be grilled temperature
Thin cuts

such as chops, steak 275°C

Thicker cuts

such as chicken, kebabs 240°C

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.

35

Grilling

Pre-heat the grill for approx.
5 minutes with the oven door shut.

Place the food to be grilled in the
grill pan and then the oven.

Insert the grill pan at the appropriate
level for the height of the food to be
grilled:

– Upper oven

thin cuts = level 2 or 3

– Lower oven e

thin cuts = level 4 or 5
thicker cuts = level 1 or 2

Grilling time

Flat pieces of fish and meat usually
need about 5-6 minutes a side depend­ing on their texture.
Thicker pieces need longer.

With rolled meat allow approx.
10 minutes per cm diameter.

-

Useful grilling hints

It is best to grill food of a similar thick­ness at the same time so that the grill-
ing time for each item does not vary
too greatly.

Most items should be turned half way
through cooking.

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

thoroughly cooked through ("well
done").

Cleaning and care

Cleaning and care

Appliance front and control
panel

Use a mild cleaning agent or a dash of
washing up liquid in hot water. Wipe
dry with a soft cloth.

Glass front

Do not use a scouring agent, as this
would scratch the glass front.

For ovens with a white finish we recom­mend after each use wiping:

– the oven door handle and
– the control panel

with a damp cloth and some washing
up liquid. This will avoid spillages
being burnt on and becoming im­possible to remove.

Accessories

Runners

Wash in hot water with washing up
liquid, or clean with a stainless steel
cleaner.

Baking tray, roasting/grill pan, rack:

wash and dry after each use.
Remove stubborn residues that do not

wash away
– from stainless steel:

with a stainless steel cleaner.

– from enamel:

Soften residues by soaking with hot
water, then brushing with a soft nylon
brush or sponge.

Stainless steel front

Never use cleaners containing
sand, soda or scouring agents,
These will leave scratches.

Use a non-scouring stainless steel
cleaner. Apply with an even pressure.
Wipe over with a damp cloth and rub
dry with a soft cloth.

38

Roasting filter

Clean in washing up liquid and hot
water, or in the dishwasher.

Cleaning and care

Oven interior

The oven interior surfaces have been
designed to make cleaning easier.

Cleaning and care

If an oven spray is used on the
"Clean-Enamel", follow the manufac­turer’s instructions carefully.

The oven cavity and door interior are
finished in "Clean-Enamel". The rear
panel which protects the fan is more
subject to oil and fat splashes and has
a catalytic enamel coating.

With some models, side panels with
catalytic coating are fitted and the re­movable guard plate above the grill
has a catalytic coating. With this ar­rangement most of the interior "Clean­Enamel" is protected, except for the
floor and the door, which should be
cleaned after each use.

"Clean-Enamel"

This is a specially hardened enamel
with an extremely smooth surface.

Most baking and roasting residues can
be easily removed using a sponge
cloth, washing up liquid and hot water.

If something bakes on harder, it can be
loosened with a shielded blade scraper
and cleaned off with a sponge and a
proprietary non-scouring cream. It is ea­sier to remove splashes of fruit or cake
mixture from the oven and racks while
they are still warm.

Important: Oven spray must not
come into contact with catalytic ena­mel. It can damage the enamel.

Catalytic Enamel

Because circulating air in the oven de­posits oil and fat splashes predomi­nantly on the rear wall, this is coated in
catalytic enamel.

With some models, side panels with
catalytic coating are also fitted, and the
removable guard plate above the grill
has a catalytic coating.

When this catalytic enamel is heated to
temperatures above 200°C, oil and
grease deposits are removed, except
for deposits of spices, syrups and simi­lar substances. The higher the tempera­ture the more effective the process.

Do not use an oven spray on the
catalytic enamel. Do not wash the
panels in a dishwasher. Any mech­anical handling would damage the
catalytic enamel.

Fruit juice may cause lasting discolour­ation.

Dull patches may remain permanently
in the oven tray after roasting or grilling.

Do not wait too long between cleaning
sessions as further baking and roasting
will cause oil and grease deposits to
burn on even harder.

39

Cleaning and care

Cleaning each type of enamel

Allow the oven to cool down before
cleaning. Danger of burning.

Clean the oven floor ("Clean-Ena­mel) after each use.
The oven should also be cleaned
regularly, preferably after each use.
Waiting too long will make cleaning
very difficult and in extreme cases
not very effective.

Never use hard brushes, scouring
cloths, steel wool, knives or other
abrasive materials. The enamel
would be damaged.

Remove the accessories and the run­ners from the oven. (See following
pages for release).

Clean the "Clean-Enamel" surfaces.
A mild proprietary cleaner, without
sand or scouring agents, may be
used.

Normally the catalytic liners can be
left in place and wiped over. Use a
solution of warm water and a little
washing up liquid and a soft brush to
clean catalytic surfaces.
The catalytic liners should rarely
need to be removed. See following
pages for procedure.

In addition, heating the oven to a high
temperature will help remove soiling on
the catalytic surfaces which has been
caused by grease and oil splashes.

Turn the oven function selector to
"Fan heat D" or "Conventional
heat A".

Turn the temperature selector to the
highest setting.

Let the oven operate for about one
hour. The length of time will depend on
the degree of soiling. It is a good idea
to set the finish time for the process
with the "g" button. This way you will
not forget to switch the oven off at the
end.

Every time the oven is used at high tem­peratures any remaining soiling will
gradually disappear.

Should the catalytic coating on the
back panel or any other catalytic
panels fitted become ineffective
through improper use or heavy soil­ing, for example, a replacement can
be obtained from your Miele dealer
or Miele Spare Parts dept.

Do not use oven spray or abrasive
cleaning agents on the catalytic sur­faces. Do not wash the panels in a
dishwasher. Any mechanical hand­ling would damage the catalytic en­amel.

Cleaning and care

To make cleaning easier on both ovens
you can

– take off the oven door,
– remove the side runners,
– remove the interior rear panel,
– lower the upper heating element into

the oven interior,

– take out the guard plate (if fitted).
Although only the lower oven is illus-

trated in the diagrams below, in general
the procedure is the same for the
upper oven as for the lower oven.

Any steps which differ are described in
detail.

Please note : the oven door is quite
heavy. It should be gripped firmly at the
sides when being removed or re-fitted.

To remove the oven door

Please note : the oven door is quite
heavy. It should be gripped firmly at
the sides when being removed or re­fitted.

Cleaning and care

Flip down the locking clamps on
each door hinge.
This locks the hinges.

Open the door fully.

Before the door can be removed,

Correcting minor faults

Correcting minor faults

Installation, maintenance and re­pairs to the electrical components
of this appliance should only be car­ried out by a fully competent person
to ensure safety. Repairs and other
work by unqualified persons could
be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for un­authorized work.

Some minor problems however can be
dealt with as follows:

What to do if . . .

. . . the oven does not heat up.

the selector switch is set to the func­tion required, and the temperature
control is set at the correct tempera­ture.

the operating lock is activated (lower
oven).

. . . the heating works, but not the
oven lighting.

The bulb needs changing:

Disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply:
Switch off at the isolator or the mains
fuse box.

Remove the runners.

the main fuse has blown. Contact a
qualified electrician or the Miele Ser­vice Department.

. . . "12:00" flashes in the timer dis­play.

This is not a fault.
There has been an interruption to the
power supply.

After a power cut
– the time of day has to be entered

again,

– the operating lock has to be reacti-

vated.

46

Lift the lamp cover from its retainers.
Change the bulb:

12 V, 20 W, G4 socket, Osram
heat resistant to 300°C, Type 64428.

Press the lamp cover back in its
retainers and put the runners back.

Reassemble in the reverse order, care­fully ensuring all parts are correctly in
place.

Correcting minor faults

. . . no noise is heard when the oven
door is opened during operation.

This is not a fault.
If the door is opened during operation,
the door contact switch causes the
oven heating, and the fan if on "Fan"
setting, to be switched off.

. . . a noise can be heard after bak­ing, roasting or grilling.

This is not a fault.
The cooling fan continues to run for a
short time after the oven has switched
off to prevent any humidity building up
in the oven, on the control panel or in
the housing unit. When the temperature
has fallen sufficiently the fan switches
off automatically.
The temperature will fall faster when the
oven door is opened partially or fully.

. . . the cakes and biscuits are not
cooked after following the times
given in the chart.

Check whether,

the correct temperature was set.
there has been a change to the

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

the roasting filter had been left in
place in front of the fan when cook­ing with "Fan D" heat, or was in
place for "Auto roast E". In this
case baking times might be leng­thened by 10 to 15 minutes.

. . . The browning effect is uneven.

There will always be a slight uneven­ness. Product information sheets give a
percentage result for standard brown­ing tests. These refer to results for one
tray.

If the item being baked is browning
very unevenly, check:

– when baking with "Fan Heat D":

whether the temperature was set too
high,

whether the roasting filter was in
place.

– when baking with the "Conventional

setting A":
the colour and composition of the

baking tins being used. Light col­oured, shiny, or thin walled tins are
less suitable.

. . . spots like rust appear on the inte­rior walls.

When roasting on the rack, the circulat­ing air sometimes picks up spices,
which are then deposited on the oven
interior walls. Such residues are not
removed by catalytic cleaning, they are
best removed while fresh with a mild
washing up liquid solution and a soft
brush.
