Description of the appliance
Accessories
Most of the following accessories are supplied with this oven.
These and other accessories are also available to order from your Dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department. See “Extra Accessories” further on in this booklet for more details.
Baking tray, grill pan and rack
The baking tray, grill pan and rack are fitted with non-tip safety notches which prevent them being pulled right out when they only need to be partially pulled out.
Roasting filter
The roasting filter must be fitted in front of the fan when cooking anything fatty or where food is likely to splatter, e.g. when open roasting and grilling meat.
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 and give uneven browning results.
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.

Description of the appliance
Roast probe
The roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored simply and re­liably. See "Roasting with the Roast probe" for details.
Anti-splash tray
The catalyser operates automatically for all functions except "Defrost" and "Lighting".
Slide opener
Use the slide opener for lifting off the light cover.
Handle
The anti-splash tray should be placed inside the deep sided grill pan when grilling or roasting. The juices from the food being cooked collect under the anti-splash tray. This prevents them from spitting and mak­ing the oven dirty. The juices can then be used for making gravy and sauces.
Catalyser
The catalyser is built in to the oven’s cooling system. The catalyser filters fatty vapours and reduces food smells.
To take the racks, baking trays or the grill pan out of the oven, or to put them into it. The two prongs at the top go in­side the rack, tray or pan and the U­shaped supports underneath.

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 withdrawnor 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.
Great care should be taken to en-
sure that small children do not touch the appliance when it is being used. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, handle vent and con­trol panel can become quite hot.
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.
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.
When cleaning the roof of the oven
wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it, to avoid the danger of burning.
10
Do not use force to pull it down as
this can cause the element to break.

Warning and Safety instructions
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 an 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 12 kg.
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 larger deep-frozen items
such as pizzas on baking paper on the rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra accessories"). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort. 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.
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.

Page 12
Warning and Safety instructions
Never add water to food on a hot
baking tray or grill pan 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, Bottom heat B or Intensive baking F. Do not place a dish, tin, baking tray or grill pan on the floor of the oven.
If using a grill pan 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
Never leave the appliance unat-
tended when cooking with oils and fats as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.
Do not use the oven to heat up the
room. Due to the high tempera­tures radiated, inflammable objects left near the oven could catch fire.
When using kitchen appliances
connected to sockets near the oven, ensure that the cable cannot get trapped in a hot oven door, which could melt the cable insulation and be dangerous. Danger of electric shock.
Never use a steam cleaner to
clean this appliance. The steam could attack the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Warning and Safety instructions
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated. Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cook­ing container. Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only de­stroyed by thorough cooking 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.
If using alcohol in your recipes
high temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and under adverse circumstances the alcohol can catch light on the hot heating elements. Alco­hol should be burnt off before the dish is placed in the oven to avoid this danger.
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 appliance
Before throwing an old appliance
away it must first be made unu­sable. Switch off and disconnect it from the power supply, cut off the cable di­rectly behind the appliance and render any plug useless. This should be done by a competent person.
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
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 approx. 20°C 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.
Food which browns quickly should not be placed at the top of the oven when rapid heat up is being used.
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 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.
16
More practical advice about these cooking functions is given in the "Baking", "Roasting" and "Grilling" sections of this book and in the Miele cookbook supplied with this oven.
Page 17
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.

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed, before grill­ing.
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.
The grill element is thermostatically con­trolled and at times during grilling will not glow red. This is quite normal.
Grill 2 n
Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed, before grill­ing.
This method is particularly good for grill­ing large quantities of food using the grill pan to its full extent.
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.
The grill element is thermostatically con­trolled and at times during grilling will not glow red. This is quite normal.
The grill element is thermostatically con­trolled and at times during grilling will not glow red. This is quite normal.
Grill 1 m
Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed, before grill­ing.
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.
More practical advice about these cooking functions is given in the "Baking", "Roasting" and "Grilling" sections of this book and in the Miele cookbook supplied with this oven.

In order to do this:
Press the "p" button.
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 "+" or "–" button to enter the different temperature required.
To save in memory press the "p" but- ton until the audible tone is heard.
Enter the required temperature with the "+/–" button, when the light be­tween the two buttons is lit up.
Your own recommended temperature 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.

Using the oven
Place food to be cooked on an ap­propriate runner height in the oven.
Turn oven function selector to the re­quired 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
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 if 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".
The cooling fan will continue for a while after switching the oven off.
Pre-heating the oven
Pre-heating is only necessary in a few cases:
With "Fan Heat D":
as puff pastry and yeast mixtures where instant heat is required to make them rise quickly.
With "Conventional heat A":
– Pre-heat the oven 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
Turn the oven function selector to "0"
The oven is switched off: all processes / symbol displays are cancelled.
Exceptions: – If the roast probe is being used, the
symbol"e" is lit.
– If a minute minder time has been en-
tered, the "l" symbol is lit and the display shows the time counting down.
– Pre-heat for foods which cook in less
than 20 minutes and for foods such

Rapid heat-up
With the "Fan Heat D", "Auto Roast E" 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 the 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 automatic 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 indi­cate 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.

Baking
The following settings are recom­mended for baking:
Fan Heat DIntensive Bake FConventional A
1 tray = 1st runner from the bottom 2 trays = 1st and 3rd runners
from the bottom
3 trays = 1st, 2nd and 4th runners
from the bottom
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, with the slop­ing edge towards the door.
"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. Use one shelf position only.
If baking on three levels place tins on the grill pan on the 1st runner position and on baking trays on the other runner levels.
Remember to remove the roasting filter from in front of the fan opening. Otherwise the baking time will be longer and results uneven.
With Fan Heat D approx. 20°C lower baking temperatures are needed than with the Conventional A setting.
Intensive baking F
Remember to remove the roasting 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. Put the tin or dish on the baking tray on
the 1st runner from the bottom.
Fan Heat D
Several levels can be used at the same time for baking. The recommended po­sitions are:
34
Page 35
Baking
Conventional A
Only one shelf should be used for this function. If more than one shelf position is needed use Fan heat instead.
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 when using this method.
Place tins on the wire rack on runner level 2 or 3, so that they are centrally positioned.
General notes
or potato croquettes can be cooked on the baking tray or grill pan.
When baking cakes with fresh fruit toppings and tall sponge cakes place the tin in the grill pan to catch any spil­lages and keep the oven cleaner.
When baking anything with a high salt content (such as pretzels) these must be placed on baking parchment. High concentrations of salt can damage Per­fectClean surfaces.
The Baking Chart and Miele cook­book give suggestions for tempera­ture, runner height and timing.
For even browning -
– Select the runner height according
to the recipe and the setting chosen. – Just before the end of baking time
test to see if the cake is done.
Insert a metal or wooden skewer into
the centre.
If it comes out clean, without dough
or crumbs sticking to it, the cake is
ready.
Place rectangular tins in the oven as shown in the illustration.
Bake larger deep-frozen items such as pizzas on baking paper on the rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra ac­cessories"). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort. This distortion would in­crease with subsequent use. Deep frozen foods such as oven chips
Always remove all trays and racks not being used when using the oven to get the best results and to keep cleaning of the trays to a mini­mum.
The cooling fan will continue for a while after switching the oven off.

Roasting
Roasting
We recommend the following settings for roasting in the oven:
Auto Roast EConventional A
Roasting in a covered pot
– This ensures that sufficient stock re-
mains 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 all suitable. Make sure any lids and handles are heat-resistant.
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.
if a more intensive browning effect is desired.
Open roasting
Auto roast E: When roasting on the rack or in an open tin make sure the roasting fil­ter is fitted in front of the fan in the back of the oven before starting.
Use shelf position 1 for roasting. Exception: With conventional A use
runner level 2 for poultry, meat or fish weighing up to 1 kg. The "Auto roast E" system uses an approximately 20 °C lower roasting temperature than the "Conventional" heating system.
When roasting on the rack place the rack and anti-splash tray over the grill pan and push them in together.
Season the meat and place in the grill pan. Place a little water in the tray. Do not add too much liquid to the tray dur­ing cooking as this will hinder the browning process. Baste during cook­ing.
Place the covered pot on the rack into a cold oven.
Exception: Pre-heat the oven to the tem­perature suggested when roasting beef and beef fillet.
Browning only occurs towards the end of the roasting time. Remove the lid about halfway through the roasting time
38
Page 39
Calculating the 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.
Temperature
See the Roasting chart for suggested temperatures.
Do not select a higher temperature than that advised. The meat will become brown, but will not be cooked properly inside.
Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat should be thoroughly de­frosted before roasting.
Roasting
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 cooling fan will continue for a while after switching off the oven.
39
Page 40
Roasting with the Roast Probe
Roasting with the Roast Probe
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 EConventional AFan Heat DFan 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.
The roast probe should not be used for poultry or game birds as these contain a lot of bone.
40
Page 41
Roasting with the Roast Probe
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.
To do this:
Press the "e" button.
Enter the desired temperature using the "+" or "–" buttons.
When the light in the "+/–" button goes out – the oven heating switches on.
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 temperature can be altered with the "+/–" button 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 actual core temperature ap-
pears in the oven display. N.B. The lowest temperature that can be dis­played is 20°C, so this will be shown until the roast probe registers 20°C.
41
Page 42
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 you may see the time left fig­ure increasing. This is due to the elec­tronics checking the core temperature and readjusting the time left. This is quite normal.
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.
42
Page 43
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.
The cooling fan will continue for a while after switching the oven off.
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 roast 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. – If the cut of meat is less than 1 kg
the probe cannot be used to gain an
accurate result and the time required
should be calculated using tradi-
tional methods.

Grilling
Grilling
Put the roasting filter in front of the fan grille in the back of the oven.
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.
Because the grill is thermostatically controlled it will not glow red all the time. This is normal.
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. The inner part glows red. The outer part stays darker than the inner part but creates sufficient radiant heat for grilling.
Fan Grill N
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.
For grilling larger items, for example, poultry, rolled meat.
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.
45
Page 46
Grilling
Preparing food for grilling
Clean, wipe and season with pepper and herbs. Do not season meat with salt before grilling as this draws the­juices out.
Add a little oil if necessary. Other fats quickly become black or cause the food to smoke.
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
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.
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.
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. Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 mins
with the oven door closed. Place the grill pan under the grill.
46
Page 47
Grilling
Grilling with the rotisserie
For grilling thicker items such as stuffed meat, poultry, kebabs.
Insert the anti-splash tray in the grill pan and place the roasting filter on the back wall.
Assemble the rotisserie as shown in the grill pan (with anti-splash tray fitted).
The rotisserie fits into the motor slot at the back of the oven.
Meat should be balanced in the middle to give even rotation.
The rotisserie fits into the motor slot at the back of the oven.
See the Rotisserie chart for suggested times and temperatures.
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.
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.
Meat should be balanced in the middle to give even rotation.
– 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").

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 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. Danger of salmon­ella.
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 thawed to take herbs and seasoning.

Cleaning and care
deposits adhering to surfaces and be­coming difficult to remove.
All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned using warm water with a little washing up liquid applied with a soft sponge or cloth.
Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.
E-Cloth
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department, Part number 98013530, which is suit­able for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals. It can be washed 300 times.
To prevent the risk of scratches and damage to the surface structure of glass and stainless steel fronted ap­pliances pay particular attention to the following cleaning instructions.
Glass fronted appliances
The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.
Avoid: – abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-
der cleaners and cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been pre­viously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
– oven sprays.
Stainless steel fronted ap­pliances
The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.
Please observe the cleaning instruc­tions for
stainless steel surfaces,stainless steel coloured controls.
Stainless steel surfaces
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a proprietary non-abrasive clean­ing agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel, or with the Miele E-Cloth.
Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-
der cleaners and cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been pre­viously used with abrasive cleaning agents.
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure using a soft cloth following the direction of the "grain".
Clean the door handle and the control elements regularly, preferably after each use. This will help prevent grease or other
51
Page 52
Cleaning and care
Stainless steel coloured controls
The controls may suffer discolour­ation or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.
Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow-
der cleaners and cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been pre­viously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
stainless steel cleaners,oven sprays.
Accessories
Always remove all accessories, trays and racks which are not being used when using the oven to get the best results and to keep clean­ing of the trays to a minimum.
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.
Roast probe
Wipe with a damp cloth.
Do not put the roast probe into water, or clean it in the dishwasher. This would damage it.
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.
Baking tray, grill pan, racks and side supports
The surfaces of these have been treated with PerfectClean enamelling. See "PerfectClean" for cleaning instruc­tions.
52
Page 53
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, rack and side supports have been treated with a new type of enamelling called "Perfect Clean".
This surface has very good anti-stick properties which is much easier to keep clean than conventional oven ena­mel, if cleaned regularly.
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.
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. The longer soiling is left the har­der it may become to remove.
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
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!
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 for a couple of minutes only. 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!
53
Page 54
Cleaning and care
Remove the catalytic back panel, side liners (if fitted) and roof panel 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 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.
54
When baking items with a high salt con­tent (e.g. continental pretzels) place them on baking parchment in the bak­ing tray or grill pan. Sodium deposits can cause lasting discolouration to Per­fectClean surfaces.

Cleaning and Care
Catalytic enamel surfaces
The removable back panel, side liners (if fitted) 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, side liners (if fitted) and roof liner must first be removed from the oven.

Cleaning and care
To clean at high temperatures
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.
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, the side liners 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.

Cleaning and care
Oven interior
To make cleaning easier you can
remove the oven door,take out the the runners,take out the back panel,take out the side panels (if fitted),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.
Cleaning and care
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 up the locking clamps on each door hinge. This locks the hinges.
Raise the door until it engages. Pull upwards and out to remove.
To re-fit the oven door
Fit the door on the hinges and open completely.
Flip the locking clamps down.
It is essential that the locking clamps are flipped down when the door is refitted 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.

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.
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.
Make sure the halogen lamp is con­nected properly in its socket.
If after checking it, it still does not work you will need to change it:
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Switch off at the isolator or the mains fuse box.
Use the slide opener to lift the lamp cover from its retainers.
Change the halogen lamp: 12 V, 20 W, heat resistant to 300°C, Osram, Type w969.
Exercise caution when changing a lamp. Halogen lamps 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 lamp as grease particles from your fingers will adhere to the sur­face and damage it. Please follow the manufacturers instructions.
Reassemble in the reverse order, care­fully ensuring all parts are correctly in place.
Take out the runners.

Put the lamp cover firmly back into place.
Correcting minor faults
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.
. . . no noise is heard when the oven door is opened during operation.
This is not a fault. If the door is opened during operation, the door contact switch causes the oven heating, and the fan if on "Fan" setting, to be switched off.
. . . a noise can be heard after bak­ing, roasting or grilling.
This is not a fault. The cooling fan continues to run for a while 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.
. . . cakes and biscuits are not cooked after following the times given in the chart.
Check whether,
. . . 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,
whether the correct runner height was used.

Correcting minor faults
. . . 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.
. . . "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.
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.
– If any other fault message appears
in the display, this will need a service visit. Please quote the fault message.
. . . 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 re-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 time comes into operation. Sometimes these do not occur.
