Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material

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 ma­terials away, please ensure they are of­fered for recycling.

Disposal of your old machine

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

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.

The appliance is not intended for
use by young children or infirm per­sons without supervision.
Young children should be super­wised to ensure that they do not
play with 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 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.

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 (e.g. 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.

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.

Installation work and repairs may

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

11

Warning and Safety instructions

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

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).

The oven is designed to be built

into a tall unit. If you wish to install
it in a base unit, the stainless steel rail
above the control panel must be re­placed by a sealing strip. The sealing
strip offers additional protection from
any liquids that might spill down from
the worktop, and can be purchased
from the Miele Spare Parts dept.

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 assess­ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Use

Caution, danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by
the oven and the hob cooking areas.

Great care should be taken to en-

sure 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,
handle vent and control panel can
become quite hot. For cookers with a
hob turn pan handles inwards to pre­vent children from pulling pans over.

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 or play with it.
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.

Oven

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.

12

Warning and Safety instructions

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.

Do not use plastic containers.

These melt at high temperatures
and could damage the oven.

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, turn the temperature se­lector to the lowest setting. Leave the
function selector at the position set.

Do not switch the appliance off until the
food has been removed.
Moisture in the oven could lead to con­densation forming on the control panel
and surrounding kitchen furniture and
drops of moisture collecting under the
worktop.

Condensation can:

- damage the housing unit / worktop.

- lead to moisture damage in the oven.

On ovens or cookers with a built-in
catalyser failure to do this could result
in deposits remaining in the catalyser,
causing an unpleasant smell to arise
the next time the appliance is used.

Bake any deep-frozen items such

as pizzas on baking paper on the
rack itself. Do not place them on the
baking tray or in the grill pan/oven tray.
This could cause the metal to distort to
such an extent that it might be im­possible to remove the pan from the
oven whilst it is still hot. This distortion
would increase with subsequent use.
Deep frozen foods such as oven chips
or potato croquettes can be cooked on
the baking tray or grill pan/oven.

13

Warning and Safety instructions

Never add water to food on a hot

baking tray or grill pan/oven tray or
directly onto food in a hot oven. The
steam created could cause serious
burns or scalding and the sudden
change in temperature can damage
the enamel.

Never line the floor of the oven with

aluminium foil when using Conven­tional top and bottom heat A or Bottom
heat B. Do not place a dish, tin, bak­ing tray or grill pan/oven tray on the
floor of the oven.

If using a grill pan/oven tray made by a
different manufacturer make sure that
there is a gap of at least 6 cm between
the bottom of the pan and the floor of
the oven.

If these instructions are not observed
the bottom heat will be blocked. This
can cause permanent damage to the
floor of the oven.

Protective aluminium foil panels

are available in retail outlets which
are supposed to protect the oven cav­ity from soiling and reduce the need for
cleaning. If used, cooking and baking
times will increase considerably.
They can also cause damage to the ap­pliance (e.g. by blocking the heat).

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 or hob could catch fire.

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 at tem­peratures over 70°C for a minimum of
10 minutes. 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.

14

Warning and Safety instructions

When using kitchen appliances

connected to sockets near the
oven, ensure that the cable cannot
come into contact with hot cooking
zones or get trapped in a hot oven
door, which could melt the cable insula­tion and be dangerous. Danger of elec­tric shock.

Under no circumstances use a

steam cleaner to clean this ap­pliance. The steam could attack the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.

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 vaporise.
Please take note that under adverse cir­cumstances the alcohol can catch light
on the hot heating elements.

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 these Warning and
safety instructions.

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.

The timer can also be used to set the
finish time.

Ensure the room is well ventilated
during this process.

16

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, enabling
lower temperatures to be used than
with the Conventional heating system.

The oven does not usually need to be
pre-heated as the heated air reaches
the food straight away.

Exception: Pre-heating may be necess­ary for foods such as puff pastry and
yeast mixtures where instant heat is re­quired to make them rise quickly.

Using the fan heating system you can
bake and roast on different levels at the
same time.

Rapid heat-up Ä

With Rapid heat-up the grill element,
the fan heat element and the fan all
switch on at the same time so that the
oven reaches the required temperature
as quickly as possible. The indicator
light above the temperature selector
goes out when the required tempera­ture has been reached. The oven func­tion selector must then be turned to the
function you wish to use.

Description of the systems

Auto Roast E

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.

Conventional heating A

With the conventional method of heat­ing, radiant heat is directed on the food
from above and below. It is useful
where a fairly long cooking time is re­quired and a deep colour and good
rise are needed.

It is usually necessary to pre-heat the
oven for about 20 minutes when using
this method.

Grill n

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 at least 5 minutes
with the oven door closed, before plac­ing food under the grill.

Fan grill N

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.

setting. Then turn it back in an anti­clockwise direction. Do not force it
right round in a clockwise direction
as this would damage the selector.

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

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

Oven - use

Using the oven

The "@" symbol must show in the
timer display if you wish to operate
the oven manually, i.e. using the
temperature and function selectors
without the timer. Press "i" to allow
you to do this.

Place the food in the oven.
Turn the oven selector to the re-

quired function.
Use the temperature selector to set

the required temperature.
The oven starts to heat up.
Depending on model the heating is

automatically interrupted as soon as
the oven door is opened. This operates
the door contact switch which swit­ches off the heating systems, and the
fan with "Fan heat".

If food is left in the oven after cook­ing, e.g. to take advantage of the re­sidual heat, turn the temperature se­lector to the lowest setting. Leave
the function selector at the position
set. Do not switch the appliance off
until the food has been removed.

Moisture in the oven could lead to
condensation forming on the control
panel and surrounding kitchen furni­ture and drops of moisture collect­ing under the worktop.

On ovens or cookers with a built-in
catalyser failure to do this could re­sult in deposits remaining in the
catalyser, causing an unpleasant
smell to arise the next time the ap­pliance is used.

You can also programme the oven to
end or delay the start of a cooking pro­cesse automatically, (see "Programm­ing cooking time automatically").

20

Oven - use

Pre-heating the oven:

Pre-heating is only necessary in a few
cases e.g:

With "Fan heat" D

– Pre-heating may be necessary for

foods such as puff pastry and yeast

mixtures where instant heat is re-

quired to make them rise quickly.

With "Conventional" A

– It is usually necessary to pre-heat

the oven for about 20 minutes when

using this method where a fairly long

cooking time is required and a deep

colour and good rise are needed.

With "Grill" n

– Pre-heat the grill for at least 5

minutes with the oven door closed,

before placing the food under the

grill.

With Rapid heat-up Ä

Do not switch on "Rapid heat-up" Ä
for pre-heating the oven when bak­ing biscuits and small cakes, par­ticularly when batch baking be­cause the top tray will brown too
quickly.

Turn the function selector to "Rapid
heat-up" Ä.

Set the temperature you require.
The oven heating comes on.

When the indicator light above the
temperature selector goes out for the
first time, set the oven function you
require for continued cooking or bak­ing and place the food in the oven.

You can use "Rapid heat-up" Ä to
cook ready made meals (see rele­vant section).

21

Accessories

Accessories

Baking tray, grill pan / oven
tray and rack

The baking tray, grill pan / oven tray
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).

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

Roasting filter

The roasting filter must be fitted in front
of the fan when:
– using Fan heat D or Automatic roast-

ing E for roasting on the rack or in
an open pot or roasting tin.

– using Fan grill N.

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.

Do not use the roasting filter when
baking. This would increase the
times needed for baking.

22

Accessories

Handle

(depending on model)

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

Anti-splash tray

(depending on model)

To be placed in the grill pan / oven tray
when grilling and roasting.

The juices from the food being cooked
collect under the anti-splash tray, rather
than being dried out, and they can then
be used in sauces etc.

Baking

Baking

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:

Bakeware

For the best baking results make sure
that you chose bakeware in a material
suitable for the particular heating sys­tem.

– Fan Heat D

Most types of heat-resistant tins or
dishes are suitable, including thin­walled and bright, non-reflective met­al tins. Place the tin or dish on the
baking tray in the oven.

– Conventional A

The following baking tins give an
evenly browned result:
Dark metal, aluminium or enamel tins
with a matt finish are preferable.
Heat resistant glass dishes can also
be used.
Avoid bright, shiny metal tins. These
reflect heat which means that the
heat does not penetrate to the food
effectively and will result in uneven
or poor browning. In some cases the
cakes might not cook properly.
Place the tin or dish directly on the
non-tip rack in the oven.

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

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

If baking on three levels place tins
on the oven tray on the 1st runner
position and on baking trays on the
other runner levels.

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

With Fan Heat D lower baking tem-
peratures are needed than with the
Conventional A setting. See the bak­ing charts.

28

Baking

Conventional A

Use dark metal or enamel tins with
a matt finish.
Bright, shiny metal tins result in
uneven or poor browning and in
some cases cakes might not cook
properly.

This function is particularly good for
rich fruit cakes, pastries and breads
where a fairly long cooking time is re­quired and a deep colour and good
rise are needed.

It is usually necessary to pre-heat the
oven for about 20 minutes when using
this method.

Place tins on the rack on runner level

1 or 2.

General notes

Bake any deep-frozen items such as
pizzas on baking paper on the rack it­self. Do not place them on the baking
tray or in the grill pan/oven tray.
This could cause the metal to distort to
such an extent that it might be im­possible to remove the pan from the
oven whilst it is still hot. This distortion
would increase with subsequent use.
Deep frozen foods such as oven chips
or potato croquettes can be cooked on
the baking tray or grill pan/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 re-

ducing the time can have an ad-

verse effect on even browning. In

some cases cakes might not cook

properly.

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

– 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.

Roasting

Roasting

We recommend the following settings
for roasting in the oven:

– Auto Roast E
– Conventional A

Place the covered pot on the rack into
a cold oven.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven to the tem­perature recommended in the recipe
when cooking roast beef or beef fillet.

Auto Roast:
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

remains for making gravy.
– The oven stays cleaner, too.
Roasting pots with a lid, made from

earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china
or glass, and roasting foil are suitable.

Open roasting:

Use shelf position 1 for roasting.
Exception: With "Conventional A" 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 A"
heating system.

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

When roasting on the rack place the
rack and anti-splash tray over the grill
pan / oven tray and push them in
together.

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

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

32

Roasting

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, as in the 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.

Tips:

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 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. Baste during cooking.

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 thor­oughly 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.

The information given in this chart is intended only as a guide. See the cook book supplied with
your oven for further details.

34

Defrosting

You can also use the oven for defrost­ing.

To defrost select "Fan heat D" with a
temperature setting of up to a maxi­mum of 50 °C.

For defrosting meat and delicate foods
do not set a temperature. The fan on
the rear wall will then circulate cool air
(at room temperature) around the oven.

Please note:
– 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 over the grill pan / oven tray to
catch the defrosted liquid, so that
the meat is not lying in this liquid.

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.

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.

– Fish does not need to be fully de-

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

35

Cooking

Cooking

Casseroles

When choosing which oven level to
use, take into account the size of the
dish with its lid. The following oven set­tings are recommended:

– 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.

Please note:

Cover dishes which are to be cooked

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

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

Poaching

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

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.

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.

36

Cooking

Cooking ready made meals

The "Rapid heat-up Ä" function can
be used on its own for preparing ready
made meals such as pizza, pre-pre­pared lasagne, filled baguettes, etc.
However, when used on its own it is not
suitable for baking and conventional
cooking.

When preparing ready made meals
with this function only use one level of
the oven. If you wish to cook on more
than one level at the same time select
"Fan heat D" instead.

Bake any deep-frozen items such as
pizzas on baking paper on the rack
itself. Do not place them on the bak­ing tray or in the grill pan/oven tray.
This could cause the metal to distort
to such an extent that it might be im­possible to remove the pan from the
oven whilst it is still hot. This distor­tion would increase with subsequent
use.
Deep frozen foods such as oven
chips or potato croquettes can be
cooked on the baking tray or grill
pan/oven.

Observe recommended tempera­tures, cooking times and position in
the oven given on manufacturer’s
packaging.

You can also programme the oven to
end or delay the start of a cooking pro­cess automatically, see "Programming
cooking time automatically".

Turn the function selector to "Rapid
heat-up Ä".

Set the temperature you require.
The oven heating comes on.

When the indicator light above the
temperature selector goes out for the
first time, do not select another oven
function.

Place the dish in the pre-heated
oven.

37

Grilling

Grilling

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

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

The oven has two grill settings:

Grill n

For grilling thin cuts and for browning.

Fan Grill N

For grilling larger items, for example,
poultry, rolled meat.

Grilling on the rack

Assemble the grill pan, anti-splash
tray and rack as shown.

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

required grill setting.

Put the roasting filter in front of the
fan grille in the back of the oven
when using this setting.

Preparing food for grilling

Clean, wipe and season.
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.

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.

38

Grilling

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

Place the grill pan under the grill.

Make sure you insert the grill pan at the
appropriate level for the height of the
food to be grilled:

thin cuts = level 4 or 5
thicker cuts = level 3 or 4

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

Appliance front and control
panel

Wipe down the appliance front and the
control panel with a mild cleaning
agent or a solution of hot water with a
little washing up liquid. Wipe dry with a
soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents, sponges or brushes, as
these would scratch the surface.

White or coloured fronts

For ovens with a white or coloured 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 help deter soiling
from sticking on and becoming difficult
to remove.

Cleaning and care

Accessories

Do not leave accessories in the
oven when not in use.

Roasting filter

Clean in a solution of hot water and a
little washing up liquid or in the dish­washer.

Note: some dishwasher detergents
may cause the surface of the metal fil­ter to discolour. This discolouration will
not affect the functioning of the filter in
any way.

Racks and side supports

The stainless steel surfaces of these
have been treated with PerfectClean
enamelling.
They should be cleaned in the same
way as other surfaces with Perfect­Clean enamelling. See "PerfectClean".

Stainless steel fronts

Never use cleaners containing
chlorides, sand, soda or scouring
agents. These will leave scratches
and damage the surface.

Apply a non-abrasive proprietary stain­less steel cleaner sparingly and evenly
using a soft cloth following the manu­facturer’s instructions.

41

Cleaning and care

PerfectClean

Before using for the first time
remove any stickers from Perfect­Clean surfaces.

The enamelled surfaces of the oven in­terior, baking tray, grill pan / oven tray,
rack and side supports have been
treated with a new type of enamelling
called "PerfectClean".

This surface has very good anti-stick
properties which is much easier to
keep clean than conventional oven ena­mel.

Food can be taken off it more easily
and soiling from baking and roasting is
easier to remove.

The following notes on cleaning and
care should ensure that the anti-stick
and easy clean properties of Perfect­Clean last for many years.

PerfectClean surfaces can be treated
as you would treat glass. If you are un­sure whether a particular cleaning pro­duct is suitable for PerfectClean con­sider whether you could clean a
window pane with the product without
damaging it.

Food can be sliced or cut up on the
PerfectClean surface in the same way
as on a baking tray with conventional
enamel.

Allow the oven and any accessories
to cool down before cleaning.
Danger of burning!

Normal soiling

Clean as soon as possible after each
use with a dishcloth, soft sponge (e.g.
the Vileda sponge as supplied with the
oven) or a soft nylon brush, and a solu­tion of hot water and a little washing up
liquid.

Stubborn soiling

Stubborn soiling e.g. from roasting may
need to be soaked first with a damp
sponge to loosen it and if necessary a
scraper suitable for glass surfaces can
be used to remove it.

After cleaning rinse thoroughly with
clean water. The water must run off the
surface easily. Any residual cleaning
agents will hinder this effect.

Using oven sprays on very stubborn
soiling

Some oven cleaners contain strong
alkalines and / or abrasive
materials. Because the enamel is
designed to be easily cleaned the
use of these cleaners is not recom­mended.
However if you still cannot get the
surface clean, an oven cleaner can
be used.
Do not attempt to use on a hot oven
or accessories. Allow the Perfect­Clean surfaces to cool down to
room temperature before applying
oven sprays!

42

Cleaning and care

Remove the catalytic back panel
and roof panels before using oven
sprays. The chemicals used in oven
sprays will damage catalytic ena­mel rendering it ineffective.

Apply a spray oven cleaner to the
soiled areas. Leave to take effect for a

couple of minutes only!

If necessary use a soft sponge (e.g.
the Vileda sponge as supplied with the
oven), soft nylon brush or a scraper
suitable for glass surfaces to loosen
the soiling.

Repeat the process if necessary.
After cleaning rinse thoroughly with

clean water and then dry thoroughly.

Important

For optimum performance of the Per­fectClean enamel it is important to
clean the oven and accessories after
each use.

The surfaces will become harder to
clean and the anti-stick properties will
deteriorate if soiling is not removed
after each use and allowed to build-up.
In extreme cases cleaning may even
become impossible.

The following cause lasting damage
to the surface structure and reduce
the anti-stick effect and must not be
used on PerfectClean surfaces:

– abrasive cleaning agents
– cleaning agents for ceramic hobs
– wire wool or metal scourers
– pot scourers
– oven cleaning pads
– sponges and cloths which have

previously been used with
abrasive cleaning agents.
– oven spray must not be used in a
hot oven or left on for too long.
– items coated with PerfectClean
enamelling must not be cleaned
in a dishwasher.

Note

Soiling such as spilt juices and cake
mixtures are best removed whilst the
oven or tray is still warm. Exercise cau­tion, make sure the oven is not hot ­danger of burning!

Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting dis­colouration of the surfaces and roast­ing can cause matt areas to appear.
Clean these following the instructions
given above and do not try and use
force to remove them! This discolour­ation is permanent but will not affect
the efficiency of the enamel.

43

Cleaning and care

Cleaning and Care

Catalytic enamel surfaces

The removable back panel and roof
liner are coated with a dark grey cata­lytic enamel.

During fan operated cooking circulat­ing air in the oven deposits oil and fat
splashes predominantly on the back
panel of the oven. These splashes are
burnt off when the temperature of the
oven reaches over 200°C during bak­ing or roasting. The higher the tempera­ture the more effective the process.

The oven and accessories should be
cleaned after each use. Otherwise fur­ther baking and roasting will cause the
deposits to bake on even harder and
cleaning may become difficult and in
extreme cases impossible.

Cleaning by hand

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

Catalytic enamelled panels should
be cleaned using a solution of hot
water with a little washing up liquid
applied with a soft nylon brush.

Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents, hard brushes, scouring
pads or cloths, steel wool, knives or
other abrasive materials and do not
use oven spray on catalytic enamel
as the chemicals used in oven
sprays will damage catalytic ena­mel rendering it ineffective.
If using oven sprays on Perfect­Clean oven surfaces the catalytic
back panel and roof panel must first
be removed from the oven.

44

Cleaning and care

Catalytic cleaning process

Before cleaning the catalytic panels
using high temperatures, make sure
that all PerfectClean surfaces have
been cleaned as previously de­scribed. Otherwise, the high tem­peratures can cause deposits to
become baked on to the Perfect­Clean surfaces and become im­possible to remove.

If, after manual cleaning, the oven is
still heavily soiled, heating it to a high
temperature will help remove further
soiling caused by oil and grease
splashes from the catalytic surfaces.

Note that deposits of spices, syrups
and similar substances are not
removed by this process. These should
be removed while fresh by hand with a
mild solution of hot water and washing
up liquid applied with a soft brush.

To clean at high temperatures:

Turn the oven selector to
Fan heat D.

Turn the temperature selector to the
highest setting.

Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. The
length of time will depend on the
level of soiling.

It is a good idea to set the finish time
for the process using the timer. This
way you will not forget to switch the
oven off at the end.

Any remaining soiling will gradually dis­appear with each subsequent use of
the oven at high temperatures.

Should the catalytic enamelling on
the back panel or the roof liner
become ineffective through im­proper use or heavy soiling, a re­placement can be obtained from
your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare
Parts dept.

45

Cleaning and care

Cleaning and care

Oven interior

To make cleaning easier

– remove the oven door,
– take out the runners,
– take out the back panel,
– lower the top heating element.

To remove the oven door

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

Open the door fully.

Almost shut the door then lift it up
until the hinges disengage. Remove
the door.

To re-fit the oven door

Hold the door as shown above and
carefully put the locked hinges into
the guide holes until they engage.
Open the door fully.

Before the door can be removed,
the door hinges need to be locked
so that they do not damage the
door when it is taken out.

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

46

Still supporting the door, flip the lock­ing clamps up.

It is essential that the locking
clamps are flipped up when the
door is re-fitted after cleaning.
Otherwise on closing the door, the
hinges could work loose from the
guide holes and this could result in
damage to the door.

Cleaning and care

To remove the runners

Make sure the oven heating ele­ments are switched off and cool to
avoid the danger of being burnt.

Pull on the fixing knob to release it.

To remove the catalytic side panels

(depending on model)

Make sure the oven heating ele­ments are switched off and cool to
avoid the danger of being burnt.

Gently lift and pull out the catalytic

side panels.

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

Take the runners out of the oven.

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

47

Cleaning and care

When reassembling the catalytic side

panels, ensure they sit correctly.

Ease the back lug into the opening
in the rear wall panel.

Lift the front locating hole on to the
guide pin behind the collar.

48

Put the runners back into place.

Cleaning and care

To remove the back panel

Loosen the screws in the back panel
and take it out.

The oven must not be used without
the back panel fitted. This could
lead to injuries.

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

To lower the upper heating element

The oven heating elements must be
switched off and cool to avoid
being burnt.

Take out the runners.

Pull down on the fixing knob for the
element to release it.

49

Cleaning and care

If the roof liner is dirty it can also be
removed for cleaning:

Hold the roof liner firmly and un­screw the knurled knob.

Take out the roof liner.

Gently lower the element.

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

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

Correcting minor faults

Correcting minor faults

Installation, maintenance and re­pairs to the electrical components
of this appliance should only be car­ried out by a suitably qualified and
competent person in accordance
with national and local safety regula­tions. Repairs and other work by un­qualified persons could be dan­gerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for unauth­orised work.

Some minor problems however can be
dealt with as follows:

What to do if . . .

. . . the oven does not heat up.

Check whether,

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

There is an access flap on the right­hand side trim of the oven.

Slide the flap upwards.

"AUTO" is lit up in the timer display
field.
To switch on the oven independently
of the timer, "@" should show in
the display. Press the "i" button.

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

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

The halogen light is faulty. Change as
follows:

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

Pull out the metal strip.

51

Correcting minor faults

Replace the halogen lamp:
12 V, 20 W,
heat resistant up to 300°C, G4
socket, Osram, Type 64428.

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 the
manufacturer’s instructions.

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

. . . no noise is heard when the oven
door is opened during operation (de­pending on model).

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 is 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 been
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.

. . . spots like rust appear on cata­lytic surfaces.

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.

. . . 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 Heat D" or was in
place for Auto Roast E. In this
case baking times might be leng­thened by 10 to 15 minutes.

52

Correcting minor faults

. . . cakes or biscuits are unevenly
browned.

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,

whether the correct runner height
was used.

– when baking with "Conventional A":

the colour and composition of the
baking tins being used. Light col­oured, shiny, or thin walled tins are
less suitable,

. . . there has been a power failure,

·

and instead of the time of day "0

00"

and "AUTO" flash in the display.

All pre-set times are deleted as a result
of the power failure.

Enter the time of day again, and any
other pre-set data.

·

. . . "0

00" appears when the audible

tone is switched off.

This is not a fault.
The time of day will shortly reappear in
the display field.

. . . "AUTO" flashes in the timer dis­play.

This might signal a data entry mistake,
– for example entering conflicting

times.

– if the time of day is changed while a

start and finish time have been pre­set.

whether the correct runner height
was used.

. . . the display light does not come
on when a hob control is switched
on (depending on the model).

The lamp needs changing.
The lamp must be changed by Miele
customer service.

– when the audible tone is switched off

by pressing the "g" and ")" but­tons.
