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

components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

Installation work and repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified andcompetent person in accordance with national and local safey regulations. Re-pairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufac-turer cannot be held responsible for unauthorised 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– or the mains fuse is withdrawn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).

Ensure 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 roof liner
become very hot, and there is a danger
of being burnt.

9

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.

Only use the Miele roast probe

(core temperature probe) supplied
with this appliance. If a replacement is
necessary it can be obtained from the
Miele Spare Parts dept or a Miele spe­cialist dealer.
After using do not remove the roast
probe until the oven interior is cool.

When not in use do not leave the

roast probe in the oven, especially
when grilling. High temperatures would
damage it.

Do not use plastic containers.

They 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.

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.

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.

10

Warning and Safety instructions

Never line the floor of the oven with

aluminium foil when using Conven­tional top and bottom heat A, Bottom
heat B or Intensive baking F. 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.

11

Warning and Safety instructions

When using kitchen appliances

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

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 these Warning and
safety instructions.

Description of the oven systems

Fan Heat D

Description of the oven systems

Auto Roast E

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.

If a temperature of at least 140°C is se­lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac­tivated automatically.
The "Top Heat" heating element swit­ches in to heat the appliance up more
rapidly. This saves energy.

The oven heats initially to a high tem­perature which seals the meat to keep
it succulent and tasty.

As soon as the high temperature has
been reached, the oven temperature is
automatically returned to the pre­selected setting.

If a temperature of at least 140°C is se­lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac­tivated automatically.
The "Top Heat" heating element swit­ches in to heat the appliance up more
rapidly. This saves energy.

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.

If a temperature of at least 150°C is se­lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac­tivated automatically.
The fan and its heating element switch
in to heat the appliance up more
rapidly. This saves energy.

Description of the oven systems

Defrost G

Defrost can be operated without heat­ing, or at a temperature of up to 50°C.
When the defrost system is used with­out heating the air is circulated by the
fan at room temperature.

Intensive bake F

This method combines "Fan Heat" with
heat from the lower heating element,
and is particularly useful for dishes that
require a moist topping and crisp base
like pizza and quiche lorraine.

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.

Grill 1 m *

The inner part of the upper heating ele­ment acts as the grill. This will glow red
for a few minutes after being switched
on, and it is then ready for use. Use the
Grill 1 setting for small quantities.

Grill 2 n *

The entire upper heating element acts
as the grill.
The inner part of the grill will glow red a
few minutes after being switched on.
The outer part of the grill will remain no­ticeably darker, but will still produce
the heat necessary to grill.

This method is particularly good for grill­ing large quantities of food using the
grill pan to its full extent.

* Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes
with the oven door closed, before plac­ing food under the grill.

Entering your own recommended
temperature

If you frequently work with a tempera­ture which differs from the factory rec­ommended one, it is also possible to
enter your own recommended tempera­ture. (Exception: Defrost).

This saves changing the temperature
each time you use the setting.

Proceed as follows:

Use the function selector to choose
the function which is to be given a
different temperature.

The factory recommended temperature
appears in the display.

Now, immediately while the indicator
light in the "+/–" button is lit, use the

is now stored in memory.

Next time this oven function is se­lected, the stored recommended tem­perature appears.

After a power cut, any individually pro­grammed temperatures are lost and
must be re-entered.

21

Oven - use

Using the oven

Place food to be cooked in the oven.
Turn oven function selector to the re-

quired function.

The following will light up:
– recommended temperature in the

oven display,

– the indicator light for the "+/–" button.
If you wish to alter the temperature

from the recommended temperature do
so now:

Press the " p" button.
Using the "+/–" button enter the

desired temperature.

The oven will start to heat up as soon as
the indicator light for the "+/–" button
goes out.

Heating is automatically interrupted as
soon as the oven door is opened. This
operates the door contact switch
which switches off the heating systems.
When "Fan Heat" is being used, the fan
is also switched off.

You can also delay the start of cooking
processes; see "Programming cooking
time".

With "Conventional heat 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 1 and Grill 2:

– Pre-heat the grill for at least 5

minutes with the oven door closed
before placing food under the grill.

To pre-heat

Turn the oven function selector to the
required function.

Select the required temperature.
When the required temperature has

been reached: Put the food into the
oven.

Cancelling a process / switch­ing off the oven

Rapid heat-up

With the "Fan Heat D", "Auto RoastE"
and "Conventional A" heating systems,
"rapid heat-up" is switched on automati­cally if the temperature required is
– at least 140°C with "Fan Heat D"

and "Auto Roast E".

– at least 150°C with "Conventional A".
The rotating "C" beside the required

temperature shows that "rapid heat-up"
is switched on.

During the heat-up phase, the "Fan
Heat" heating element and the fan as
well as the "Top Heat" heating element
come on simultaneously to heat up the
oven as rapidly as possible. This saves
energy.

As soon as the required temperature is
reached, the extra heating element is
switched off.
Once the required temperature is
reached, the extra heating element
does not switch on again even when
the temperature is later increased.

Exception: if the temperature is in­creased before the required tempera­ture is reached, "rapid heat-up" re­mains switched on.

To switch off "rapid heat-up"

For some dishes it may be desirable to
switch off "rapid heat-up" (biscuits,
small cakes).

Select the oven system and tempera­ture for the cooking process.

As soon as the actual temperature ap­pears in the display, "rapid heat-up"
can be switched off.

Press the "–" button and hold until
the "C" in the display stops rotating.

"Rapid heat-up" is now switched off for
this particular cooking process.

"Rapid heat-up" is available for the next
programme once the oven function se­lector has been turned to "0" at the end
of a programme.

"Rapid heat-up" can be permanently
switched off if you do not want it (see
section on "Altering oven settings, Pro­grammable function 06").

Energy-save function

If you are programming a cooking pro­cess using the timer, or if you are cook­ing with the roast probe, the residual
heat is automatically used to save en­ergy.

Shortly before the end of the cooking

time the oven heating switches off.
The letters "EC" in the display field indi-

cate that the energy-save function is in
operation.

Oven lighting

When the oven is in operation the oven
lighting goes out approx. 15 seconds
after pressing the last button, to save
electricity.

To switch the lighting back on for a
short time, press one of the buttons.

The oven lighting comes on automati­cally when an oven function has been
selected and the oven door is opened.

If preferred, you can set the oven light­ing to come on automatically as soon
as an oven function has been selected,
(see the Section on Programmable
functions).

Night dimming

Between the hours of 22:00 and 6:00
the lighting in the clock / timer display
is dimmed automatically to give a slight
energy saving.

The residual heat in the oven is suffi­cient to complete the cooking process.

The cooling fan continues to run, as
does the hot air fan if a "fan" setting
had been chosen.

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.

Accessories

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.

Roast probe

The roast probe enables the roasting
process to be monitored simply and re­liably. See “Roasting with the roast
probe” for details.

29

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)

Telescopic carriage

(depending on model)

When pushing the baking trays, grill
pan / oven tray or rack into the
oven, make sure that the telescopic
carriage is pushed completely in.

If you wish to use only the lowest run­ner level for cooking, the side rails can
be taken out.

This has the advantage of:
– making more space available inside

the oven, for larger roasting tins.

– keeping the side rails clean.

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.

30

Catalyser

Depending on model your appliance
may be fitted with a catalyser.

The catalyser is built in to the oven’s
cooling system.

The catalyser filters fatty vapours and
reduces food smells.

Baking

Baking

The following settings are recom­mended for baking:

– Fan Heat D
– Intensive Bake F
– Conventional A

Bakeware

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

– "Fan Heat D", "Intensive baking F"

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.

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.

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.

Intensive baking F

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

This method of heating is particularly
useful for:
– dishes that require a moist topping

and crisp base, such as pizzas and

quiche lorraine, or where the base

has not been pre-baked.
Place the tin or dish on the baking tray

on the 1st runner from the bottom. If the
base is overcooked, use a higher level
runner next time.

38

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.

42

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.

43

Roasting with the Roast Probe

Roasting with the Roast Probe

Depending on model a roast probe
(core temperature probe) may be sup­plied.

Using the roast probe enables the
roasting process to be monitored sim­ply and reliably.

The tip of the probe measures the core
temperature at the centre of the meat
continuously.
When the pre-selected core tempera­ture is reached, the oven heating is
automatically switched off.

The roast probe can be used with the
following functions:

– Auto Roast E
– Conventional A
– Fan Heat D
– Fan Grill N

Using the roast probe

Please note:
You can place the meat in a pot or on
the rack.
Roasting bags or aluminium foil may
also be used, but only when left open
at the ends. Insert the probe through
the foil or bag into the centre of the
meat.

If fat or bone come into contact with the
probe, this can lead to the oven being
switched off too early. Therefore:

– do not let the probe touch any bones.
– do not insert it into a particularly fatty

If the meat is very heavily marbled with
fat, select the highest core temperature
given in the roasting chart.

area of the meat.

Prepare the meat in the usual way.

Insert the probe as far as possible

into the meat.

The tip of the probe must reach the

central area of the meat.

44

When roasting poultry, the best place
to insert the probe is the thickest part
between thigh and body.

If your oven is fitted with a telescopic
carriage it is best to remove the run­ners before using the roast probe.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

To do this:

Press the "e" button.

Enter the desired temperature using
the "+" or "–" buttons.

When the light in the "+/–" button goes out

Insert the plug of the roast probe into

the socket until you feel it engage.

Turn the function selector to the re-

quired oven function.
The following light up:

– the recommended oven tempera-

ture in the oven display,

– the indicator light for the "+/–" button.
The recommended oven temperature

can be altered if required with the
"+/–" button.

Next, a food core temperature of 60°C
appears in the oven display, and the in­dicator light for the "+/–" button is on.

If necessary this food core tempera-
ture can be altered with the "+/–" but-
ton according to the type of food being
cooked, (see "Oven roasting chart" for
suitable choice of temperatures) and
can be altered within a range of 20°C
to 99°C.

– the oven heating switches on.

– the actual core temperature ap-

pears in the oven display. N.B. The
lowest temperature that can be dis­played is 20°C, so this will also be
shown until the roast probe registers
20°C.

45

Roasting with the Roast Probe

Time left display

After a certain time the estimated resid­ual time (i.e. the time left to run), ap-

pears in the oven display. The actual
core temperature is no longer visible
and cannot be called up.

The residual time is calculated from the
oven temperature selected, the re­quired core temperature and the pat­tern of the increasing core temperature.

The residual time figure first shown is
an estimate. As the cooking process
continues the figure is continuously re­vised, and a more accurate revised fig­ure shown.

If, when the residual time is displayed:
– the oven or core temperature is al-

tered,
– or a different oven function is chosen,
this will cancel all the residual time infor­mation, and the actual temperature will
reappear.

If the oven door is held open for some
time, the residual time will be recalcu­lated.

Cooking time is completed automati­cally.

Shortly before the end of cooking time
the oven heating switches off.

The Energy-save function (as de­scribed under "Oven - use") comes into
action. The time left continues to be
shown in the display. If the " p" button is
pressed, "EC" appears.

If the oven temperature is altered or the
core temperature increased, the oven
heating will switch on again.

46

Roasting with the Roast Probe

End of cooking time

As soon as the chosen core tempera­ture has been reached
– an audible tone sounds for approx.

5 seconds, and

– the "e" symbol flashes.
If the audible tone is not cancelled

early, it will continue to sound every
5 minutes for an hour as a reminder
that the process has finished.

The audible tone and the flashing "e"
symbol can be cancelled by:

– pressing the "e" button.

If the food is not sufficiently cooked,
a new core temperature can be en­tered.

– turning the oven function selector to

"0".
Any temperatures entered will also
be cancelled.

Please note:

The timer can be used to delay the
start of the cooking process.

When finished, cover the meat with
aluminium foil and allow to stand for
approx. 10 minutes. During this time
the core temperature rises another
5 – 10°C.

If the temperature probe is left in the
food at the end of the cooking process,
the oven display will show the core tem­perature first rising and then sinking.

The time taken to roast meat by tem­perature using the probe is similar to
that when cooking by time.

You may need to insert the probe in a
different place and start again:
– if the cut of meat was too large (3 kg

or more) for the probe to be inserted

right to the centre.
– if the meat is not sufficiently roasted

when the set temperature is reached.

Defrosting

Defrosting

Turn the function selector to
"Defrost G"

For defrosting meat and delicate food
we recommend defrosting at room tem­perature, i.e. without selecting an oven
temperature.
However, an oven temperature of up to
50°C can be selected.

– 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.

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.

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.

– Fish does not need to be fully de-

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

Casseroles

Casseroles

Casseroles

Please note:

When choosing which oven level to
use, take into account the size of the
casserole 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.

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

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.

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.

Cooking times

Consult your cook book.

50

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 three grill settings:

Grill 1 m

Grill 2 n

For grilling large quantities of thin cuts
and for browning food in large dishes.
The whole of the grill element is
switched on.

Fan Grill N

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

For grilling small quantities of thin cuts
and for browning small dishes of food.
The inner part of the grill element is
switched on and glows red.

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

The roast probe can also be used to
monitor the temperature. See the appro­priate section

The roast probe cannot be used at
the same time as the rotisserie. The
cable would wind round the rotis­serie and be damaged.

Grilling

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.

Grilling on the rack

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

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.

Grilling on the spit

(depending on model)
For grilling thicker items such as

stuffed meat, poultry, kebabs.

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

required grill setting.
Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 mi-

nutes with the oven door closed.
Place the grill pan under the grill.

52

Assemble the rotisserie as shown.

Two special accessories for rotisserie
grilling, a meat and poultry clamp, and
a kebab grilling device are available
from your Miele dealer or the Miele
Spare Parts Department.

Turn the oven function selector to the
required grill setting.

Put the grill pan holding the assem­bled rotisserie in the oven, using the
1st runner from the bottom.

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

Set the temperature

Food to be grilled temperature
Thin cuts

such as chops, steak 275°C

Thicker cuts

such as chicken, kebabs 240°C

Grilling

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

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 in-

side will be pink ("medium").

– If there is great resistance, it is

thoroughly cooked through ("well
done").

To grill thicker pieces of food more
gradually, select an initial high tempera­ture, continue grilling at a lower tem­perature setting to allow the food to
cook through to the centre.

Cleaning and care

Appliance front and control
panel

Wipe down the appliance front, the con­trol panel and, on the H 390, the dec­orative trims 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.

Stainless steel fronts

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".

Roast probe and baking carriage tele­scopic runners (if fitted)

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.

Wipe with a damp cloth.

Do not put the roast probe or the
baking carriage telescopic runners
into water, or clean them in the dish­washer. This would damage them.

Rotisserie

Clean in a solution of hot water and a
little washing up liquid. Stubborn soil­ing should be soaked first before being
removed. If necessary a non-abrasive
proprietary stainless steel cleaner may
be used.

55

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!

56

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.

57

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.

58

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.

59

Cleaning and care

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 a slide access flap on each
side trim of the oven.

Slide the relevant access flap up­wards.

the operating lock is activated.
the mains fuse has blown. Contact a

qualified electrician or the Miele Ser­vice Department.

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

The halogen lights are faulty. Change
as follows:

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

66

Pull out the metal strip.

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.

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.

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

. . . 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:

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 oven 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.

– 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.

67

Correcting minor faults

– 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,

whether the correct runner height
was used.

. . . 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 and a soft brush.

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

The lamp needs changing.
The lamp must be changed by a Miele
service technician.

If "F6" appears the oven has auto­matically switched itself off during
use. This is a safety feature to pro­tect the oven if it has been operating
for an exceedingly long period. The
length of time depends on the oven
function selected.

The oven can be used again immedi­ately by simply turning the oven func­tion selector to "0" and then entering
the process again.

– If "F9" appears in the display, this

may mean that the maximum tem­perature of the appliance has been
exceeded.

The appliance automatically switches
itself off temporarily. As soon as the
temperature has fallen to an accept­able level the fault message disap­pears. The appliance switches itself
on again automatically.

If this fault message occurs repeated­ly, please inform the Service dept.
Please quote the fault message.

. . . "F" and a number appear in the
oven display field.

This combination indicates a fault

If "F3" appears the core tempera­ture (roast) probe has a fault.
Remove the probe from its socket
and the message will disappear.

68

– If any other fault message appears

in the display, this will need a ser­vice visit. Please quote the fault
message.

Correcting minor faults

. . . the timer display does not light
up when the oven is operating.

This is not a fault.
The display does not light up if the time
of day display has been switched off.
Press "f" and ")" at the same time.
"12:00" will appear in the display field.

. . . the time of day cannot be re-set
after a power cut.

This is not a fault.
Check whether the function selector is
still set to one of the functions. If it is,
turn it to the "0" position.

The time of day can now be set.

. . . the energy-save function is not
activated when cooking with the
roast probe or the timer.

This is not a fault.
Certain conditions must be fulfilled be­fore the system controlling the energy­save function comes into operation.
Sometimes these do not occur.

. . . the residual time indicator is not
activated when cooking with the
roast probe.

This is not a fault.
Certain conditions must be fulfilled be­fore the system controlling residual
