Description of the oven programs

Convection

The convection fan circulates heated air throughout the oven. Pre-heating the oven is not necessary, since the heated air instantly surrounds the food. Only pre-heat the oven when roasting meat or baking bread made with dark flour.

When using the convection program, it is possible to bake and roast on differ ent levels at the same time.

When a temperature above 280°F/140°C is selected, the "rapid heat" feature will automatically be activated.

Auto Roast

This program combines "convection" with "Auto Roast", which initially heats the oven to a high temperature to seal the meat, retaining moisture and tenderness.

Surround

In the "Surround" program heat is radi ated directly on the food from above and below.

Preheat the oven when:

baking cookies or cakes,

–

baking some types of dough,

–

baking bread made with dark flour,

–

roasting meat.

– When a temperature above

300°F/150°C is selected, the "rapid heat" feature will automatically be activated.

Once the high temperature has been reached, the cooking temperature is automatically lowered to the selected temperature.

When a temperature above 280°F/140°C is selected, the "rapid heat" feature will automatically be acti vated.

Description of the oven programs

Defrost

Defrost can be operated with heat up to 120°F/50°C, or without heat, using am bient air circulated by the fan.

Intensive

This program combines "convection" with heat from the lower heating ele ment. It is useful for food with a moist topping and crisp base, such as pies, pizza and quiche.

Fan Broil

The hot air from the upper heating element is distributed over the food by the fan. This enables a lower temperature than conventional broiling to be used.

Broil

Broil is used to prepare small quantities of food. The inner part of the upper heating element cycles on and off to maintain a selected broiling tempera ture.

Maxi Broil

Maxi Broil is used to prepare large quantities of food. The entire upper heating element cycles on and off to maintain a selected broiling tempera ture.

Operation

Controls

The oven controls consist of the pro gram selector and push buttons.

The program selector can be turned either way to a program.

Baking

Recommended programs

Convection

Several rack levels can be used at the same time for baking. The recom mended 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

When using "Convection", recipe temperatures should be lowered by 25 °F / 15 °C.

Do not bake on more than two levels when baking moist cookies, cakes or bread.

Remember to remove the grease filter from the fan opening when baking. If the filter is not removed, increase the baking time.

Intensive

When using "Intensive", recipe tem peratures should be lowered by 25 °F / 15 °C. Remember to remove the grease fil ter from the fan opening. If the filter is not removed, increase the baking time.

The "Intensive" program works well for dishes that require a moist topping and crisp base, such as pies, pizzas and quiche.

Put the food on the 1st runner from the bottom. If the bottom of the food over cooks, use a higher level runner next time.

Surround

Preheat the oven only for:

– cakes and cookies with a very short

baking time,

Roasting

For oven roasting use:

Auto Roast

–

Surround

–

Always install the grease filter in the back of the oven before roasting.

Roasting in a covered pot with heat resistant handles will retain stock for making gravy and will help to keep the oven clean.

Roasting pans, heat-resistant glass, aluminum foil, and earthenware are all suitable.

Place the covered pot on the rack.

NOTE: Do not place the pot on the oven floor.

When using "Auto Roast", a tempera ture of approx. 70°F/40°C lower can be used than when using "Surround".

The larger the cut of meat to be roasted, the lower the temperature that should be used.

When roasting more than 7 lbs/ 3 kg, select a temperature about 20°F/10°C lower than the one given in the "Roast ing Recommendations" chart.

The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the outside will become crisp.

For roasting directly on the rack K lower the temperature 70°F/20°C than for roasting in a covered pot L.

Roasting

Calculating roasting time:

The general rule is to allow 15 to 20 minutes of roasting per pound and ad justing the cooking time as needed for desired doneness.

Do not exceed the recommended roasting temperature. The meat will brown, but will not be thoroughly cooked.

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

After the roasting process is finished

remove the meat from the oven and cover until ready to carve. This helps the meat retain its juices.

Useful hints

Roasting in a covered pot L

Season the meat and place in the pot. Add some butter or margarine or a little oil. Add about 1/2 cup of water when roasting a large piece of meat (5-7 lbs/2-3 kg) or roasting poultry with a high fat content.

Roasting on the rack K

Place a little water in a tray on the rack below the meat to catch drippings. Add a little oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on top.

Roasting poultry

For crispy skin, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking with slightly salted water.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

The roast probe monitors the roasting process simply and reliably.

The tip of the probe continuously mea sures the core temperature at the cen ter of the meat.

When the pre-selected core tempera ture is reached, the oven automatically shuts off.

The roast probe can be used with the following programs:

Auto Roast

–

Surround

– – Convection – Fan Broil

Using the roast probe:

^ Prepare the meat as usual, and put

into the oven, (in a pot or on the rack).

Roasting bags or aluminum foil may also be used, but only when left open at the ends. Insert the probe through the opened end of the foil or bag.

Insert the probe into the middle of the

meat. Make sure that the probe does not touch any bones or is not located in a fatty portion of the meat. Improper insertion of the probe could shut the oven off too early.

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 roast

probe into the socket on the right side of the oven until it clicks into place.

^ Turn the program selector to the de-

sired program.

A preset oven temperature will show in the oven display and the indicator between the "+/–" buttons will light up.

The preset oven temperature can be changed by using the "+/–" buttons.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

To adjust the food core temperature:

Press the "Probe" button.

Change the temperature using the "+"

or "–" button.

The oven will start heating when the light between the "+/–" buttons goes out.

Next, a food core temperature of 140°F/60°C will appear in the oven dis play, and the indicator between the "+/–" buttons will light.

The food core temperature can be ad justed by using the "+/–" buttons, within a range of 67°F/20°C to 209°F/99°C. See, "Roasting recommendations" for recommended temperatures.

The actual core temperature will appear in the oven display. The lowest temper ature that can be displayed is 67°F/20°C, and will not change until the roast probe senses a rise in tempera ture greater than 67°F/20°C.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

Time remaining display

Once the oven has monitored the cooking process, it will only calculate and display the remaining cooking time. From this point on, the core temperature can no longer be displayed.

The time remaining that is first 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 program is changed after this point, the time remaining will be cancel led and the core temperature will reap pear.

Shortly before the end of the cooking time the Energy Conservation feature (as described under "Operation") will activate. If the "Temp." button is pressed, "EC" will appear in the display.

If the oven temperature is changed or the core temperature increased, the oven heating will turn on again.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

End of cooking time

When the selected core temperature has been reached:

a tone will sound for 5 seconds,

–

the "e" (roast probe) symbol will

–

flash.

If the tone is not cancelled, it will con tinue to sound every 5 minutes for an hour.

The tone can be cancelled by:

pressing the "Probe" button.

– – turning the program selector to "0".

Please note:

If the roast probe is left in the food after cooking is completed, the oven display will show a slight initial increase in core temperature followed by a decrease. This is normal.

If the meat is not thoroughly cooked, re

insert the probe in a different location and continue cooking (this situation may occur if the meat was too thick for the tip of the probe to reach the center).

The roasting time, using a pre-se lected temperature with the probe, is similar to that of timed cooking.

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.

Broiling

Broil

For broiling small quantities of thin cut meats and for browning small dishes of food. Only the inner part of the upper heating element is used.

Maxi Broil

Fan Broil

When fan broiling, always insert the grease filter over the convection fan in the back of the oven.

Fan broiling is used for broiling large items, such as poultry, or meat loaf.

With this method, the roast probe can also be used to monitor the meat’s in ternal temperature. See "Roasting with the probe" for further information.

The roast probe can not be used at the same time as the rotisserie. The cable could wind around the rotisserie and be damaged.

For broiling large quantities of meats and for browning food in large shaped dishes. The entire upper heating ele ment is used.

Broiling

Broiling on the rack

Assemble the broil pan, anti-splash

tray and rack as shown.

^ Place the food on the rack

thin cuts = runner level 3 or 4 thicker cuts = runner level 1 or 2

^ Select a broiling program. ^ Pre-heat the oven for 5 minutes.

Broiling on the spit

^ Assemble the rotisserie as shown. ^ Select a broiling program. ^ Put the broil pan holding the assem-

bled rotisserie in the oven, using the 1st runner from the bottom.

The spit fits into the motor slot at the back of the oven.

Broiling tips

To ensure even cooking, it is best to broil foods of a similar thickness at the same time. Most items should be turned half-way through broiling.

One way of finding out how far through a thick piece of meat has been cooked is to press down on its surface with a spoon.

If the surface presses down quite

–

and with little resistance to the spoon, it is "rare".

If there is some resistance, it is "me

–

dium".

– If there is great resistance, it is "well

done".

All times given are approximate and will vary according to personal taste.

Defrost

Defrosting should be at room tempera ture, i.e. without selecting an oven tem perature. However, an oven temperature of up to 120°F / 50°C can be selected.

Remove the packaging and put the

–

food to be defrosted on a baking tray or into an appropriate dish.

All meat and poultry should be fully

–

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

When defrosting poultry, place a tray

–

under the rack supporting the fowl to catch the defrosted liquids.

It is imperative to observe good hygiene practices when defrosting poultry. Do not use defrosted liquid from poultry. Properly dispose of the liquid, and thoroughly wash the tray, rack, sink and your hands.

– Fish does not need to be fully de-

frosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is soft enough to ab sorb herbs and seasoning.

Defrosting time

Defrosting times depend on the type

and weight of the food, and at what temperature it was deep-frozen.

Casseroles

For cooking casseroles use:

Convection

–

Surround

– Covered pots made of heat proof glass,

china and earthware pots are suitable for cooking casseroles.

Make sure these have heat resistant handles and knobs.

Put the rack on the first runner from

the bottom, and place the prepared casserole on top.

Select the program and the tempera

ture.

Useful hints

Dishes that need to be cooked in their own juices 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).

When cooking more than one item, one dish can be placed on top of the other.

Poaching

Fish or fruit can be poached in the oven

using a covered dish.

Canning

Only an experienced cook, properly trained in preserving fruits and vegetables, should perform canning.

Never use cleaners containing sand, silica, soda, chlorides or scouring agents, or hard brushes, scouring cloths, steel wool, or other abrasive materials. Do not use oven sprays to clean this oven.

Cleaning and care

Accessories

Roast probe

Wipe with a non-abrasive damp cloth.

Do not submerge the roast probe into water or clean in the dish washer.

Appliance front

The front of the appliance and the con trol area can be cleaned with a cloth and a solution of warm water and non abrasive liquid detergent. Rub dry with a soft cloth.

Glass surfaces can be cleaned with a glass cleaner.

Stainless steel

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.

To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure.

Stainless steel colored controls

These controls may become discolored or damaged if not cleaned regularly.

Grease filter

Clean with liquid dish soap and hot water, or in the dishwasher.

Depending on the detergent, cleaning the grease filter in a dishwasher may cause permanent discoloration of the filter surface. Performance of the filter will not be affected by this discoloration.

Spit and frame

Wash and dry after each use. Remove stubborn residues with a

stainess steel cleaner.

Cleaning and care

PerfectClean

Allow the oven and any accessories to cool down before cleaning. Dan ger of burns!

The following have been treated with "PerfectClean" enamel:

oven interior

–

baking tray,

–

grill pan / oven tray,

–

anti-splash tray,

– – rack and side supports.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, cleansers for ceramic cook

ing surfaces, metal scourers, or oven cleaners on surfaces with PerfectClean enamal.

Clean as soon as possible after each use with a soft sponge and a solution of hot water and liquid dish soap.

Stubborn baked on grease may need to be soaked first to loosen deposits. A scraper suitable for glass surfaces or a plastic scouring pad can be used to re move remaining residues.

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

Soiling such as spilt juices and cake mixtures are best removed while the oven or tray is still warm.

Spilt fruit juices may permanently discolor surfaces. This discoloration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the enamel.

Do not clean items with PerfectClean enamel in a dishwasher.

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

Cleaning and care

Catalytic enamel surfaces

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

During fan operated cooking, circulat ing air in the oven deposits oil and fat on the back panel of the oven. These splashes are burnt off when the temper ature of the oven reaches over 390°F/200°C during baking or roasting. The higher the temperature the more ef fective the process.

The oven and accessories should be cleaned after each use so cleaning does not become more difficult.

Cleaning by hand

Allow the oven to cool before cleaning. Danger of burns!

^ Catalytic enamelled panels should be

cleaned using a solution of hot water and liquid dish soap with a soft nylon brush.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, hard brushes, scouring pads or cloths, steel wool, knives or other abrasive materials. Do not use oven sprays on catalytic enamelled panels. Chemicals used in oven sprays will damage the catalytic enamel.

Catalytic cleaning process

Before cleaning the catalytic panels using high temperatures, make sure that all PerfectClean surfaces are clean. Otherwise, the high tempera tures can cause deposits to become baked on to the PerfectClean sur

faces and become impossible to re move.

If, after manual cleaning, the oven is

still heavily soiled, heating it to a high temperature will burn off oil and grease from the catalytic surfaces.

Deposits of spices, syrups and similar substances are not removed by this process. These should be removed while fresh with a mild solution of hot water and liquid dish soap with a soft brush.

To clean at high temperatures:

^ Turn the program selector to Convec-

tion.

Select the highest temperature.

Set the timer for 1 hour. More time may be needed if the panels are heavily soiled.

Any remaining soiling will gradually dis appear with each use of the oven at high temperatures.

If the catalytic enamel is damaged through improper use or heavy soil ing, a replacement can be pur chased from your Miele dealer or the Miele Technical Service Department.

Cleaning and care

To make cleaning easier

remove the oven door,

–

take out the rack supports,

Frequently asked questions

Installation work and repairs should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with all ap plicable codes and standards. Re pairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.

There are some minor problems that you can fix:

What if . . .

. . . the oven does not heat?

Check that: ^ The program selector is set to the de-

sired program, and the temperature control is set to the correct temperature.

^ The Child Safety Lock is deactivated.

Raise the small door found on either

side of the inner edge of the oven.

^ The circuit breaker has not tripped.

Contact a qualified electrician or the Miele Technical Service Department if it has.

The timer has not been set.

The door is fully closed.

. . . the heating elements in the oven function, but not the light?

The halogen lamps are bad. They can be replaced as follows:

Trip the circuit breaker to the oven.

Take the runners out of the oven.

Pull out the mounting bracket and de termine if the lamp has blown.

If the lamp needs to be replaced, gently pull out the halogen lamp and replace with a 12V, 10W, G4 socket, Osram, Type W818 and ensure that it has a minimum heat rating of 575°F (300°C). DO NOT TOUCH the new bulb with your fingers; this will reduce the life of the bulb.

Carefully reinstall in the reverse order.

Frequently asked questions

. . . 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 tempera ture has fallen sufficiently, the fan will turn off automatically.

. . . rust-like spots appear on the interior catalytic walls?

This can occur from the circulating air picking up spices from items being cooked and re-depositing them on the oven walls. Such residues are not removed by catalytic cleaning and should be removed while fresh. Clean by using warm water and mild dishwashing liquid with a soft sponge or non-metallic brush.

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

Check if:

the correct temperature was se

lected. there was a change to the recipe.

The addition of more liquid or more eggs will make a moister mix requir ing 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.

If you are using "Convection", check: ^ that the oven temperature was not set

too high,

that the grease filter is not installed,

that the correct runner level was used.

If you are using "Surround", check:

the color and composition of the bak ing pans being used. Light colored, shiny, or thin walled pans reflect the heat and are more likely to give un even results,

that the correct runner level was used.

Frequently asked questions

. . . "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 auto

matically shut off during operation. This is a safety feature to protect the oven if it has been operated for too long. The maximum operating time depends upon the program selected. The oven can be reset by turning the program selector to "0" and then re starting the program.

^ 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 shut off. As soon as the temperature has fallen to an acceptable level, the fault code will disappear. The oven will turn itself on again automati cally.

. . . 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 "Start" and "End" buttons are

pressed simultaneously, "12:00" should

appear in the display.

. . . the time of day can not be entered after a power outage?

Check whether the program selector is

set to "0". The time of day can only be entered when the program 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. Some

times these conditions are not met.

If "F7", "F8", "F9" or any other unex plained fault codes are displayed, please call the Miele Technical Service Department.
