Description of the appliance

Features

Electronic controls

In addition to operating the various cooking programmes to bake, roast and grill the electronic controls also of fer the following features:

Clock display

–

Minute minder

–

Timer to automatically switch cooking

–

programmes on and off with auto

matic use made of residual heat – Settings can be customised – System lock, to prevent the appli-

ance being used unintentionally – Safety cut-out

Cooling system

During use the cooling fan will automatically come on when a specific temperature is reached. The cooling fan mixes hot air from the oven cavity with cool room air before venting it out into the kitchen through vents located between the appliance door and the control panel. The controls and door handle will get slightly warm. They are quite safe to touch.

The cooling fan will continue 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 in the oven has fallen sufficiently the cooling fan will switch off automatically.

Door contact switch

There is a door contact switch above the right hand door hinge. If the door is opened during operation, the door contact switch automatically switches off the heating elements, and the fan if a "Fan" setting is being used.

This helps reduce the amount of heat lost from the oven cavity, e.g. when checking food.

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated with PerfectClean enamelling:

– Oven interior – Runners – Baking tray – Grill pan – Wire rack PerfectClean enamelled surfaces have

very good anti-stick properties and are much easier to keep clean than con ventional enamel if cleaned regularly. See "Cleaning and care" for more infor mation.

Catalytic liners

The back panel, roof liner and side lin ers (if fitted) are coated with dark grey catalytic enamel. Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off these surfaces when very high temperatures are used in the oven. This makes it easier to clean inaccessi ble areas of the oven. See "Cleaning and care" for more infor mation.

Description of the appliance

Catalyser

The catalyser is fitted into the oven's ventilation system.

It filters fat from the escaping vapours and thus reduces cooking smells.

The catalyser operates automatically for all functions except "Defrost" and "Lighting".

Energy efficiency rating according to EN 50304

These appliances are rated energy efficiency class C in accordance with EN

50304. Tests were carried out using the "Fan" oven function with the catalyser switched off.

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.

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

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.

Rotisserie

See "Grilling with the rotisserie" for details.

Roast probe

The roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored simply and re liably. See "Roasting with the Roast probe" for details.

Description of the appliance

Slide opener

Use the slide opener for lifting off the light cover.

Handle

Anti-splash tray

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.

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 in side the rack, tray or pan and the U-shaped supports underneath.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!

Rather than just throwing these materi als away, please ensure they are of fered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances contain materials which can be reclaimed or recycled. Please contact your dealer, your local waste collection centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling schemes, before disposing of the appliance.

Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal. See the appropriate ad vice in the "Warning and Safety instruc tions".

Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance complies with all rele vant legal safety requirements. Im proper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both per sonal injury and material damage.

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 manufac turer cannot be held liable for damage caused by incorrect or improper use of the appliance.

Do not let children access the ap

pliance or its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm. If allowing older children to use the appliance without supervision please ensure that they are aware of how the oven works and understand the dangers of im proper use.

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, other wise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a competent person if in doubt.

The electrical safety of this appli

ance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the ap pliance and an effective earthing sys tem, which complies with local and na tional regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is tested by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

This appliance must only be oper-

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

Never open the casing of the appli-

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

Installation work and repairs may

only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in ac cordance with national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be danger ous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Warning and Safety instructions

The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

it is switched off at the wall socket

–

or the mains fuse is withdrawn

–

or the screw-out fuse is removed (in

–

countries where this is applicable).

Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or re pair 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 assess ment 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 con

trol 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" heat ing or when grilling, the element in the roof of the oven and the roof liner get very hot, and there is a danger of being burnt.

Warning and Safety instructions

When cleaning the roof of the oven

wait until the grill element has cooled down before lowering it, 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 spe cialist 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 pres sure can build up and they may ex plode. 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.

Make sure that nothing gets

trapped between the door and the oven.

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 lead ing 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. It could also result in deposits remain

ing in the catalyser, causing an un pleasant smell to arise the next time the appliance is switched on.

Warning and Safety instructions

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 distor tion 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.

Never add water to food on a hot

baking tray or grill pan or directly onto food in a hot oven. The steam cre ated 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 bot tom 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 ap pliance (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 at tack 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 cook ing container. Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only de stroyed by thorough cooking at temper atures over 70°C for a minimum of 10 minutes. Therefore when cooking or re heating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particu larly 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. Alco hol should be burnt off before the dish is placed in the oven to avoid this dan ger.

Disposal of your old appliance

Before throwing an old appliance

away it must first be made unus able. Switch off and disconnect it from the power supply, cut off the cable di

rectly behind the appliance and render

any plug useless. This should be done by a competent person.

The manufacturer cannot be held lia

ble for damage caused by non-com pliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

In countries which may be subject

to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its sur roundings 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.

Before using for the first time

Switching on the catalyser

Your appliance has a catalyser built-in to the ventilation system. When switched on, the catalyser re moves fat particles from the air circulat ing in the oven and also reduces cook ing smells.

The oven is delivered with the catalyser switched off (standard factory setting).

To switch the catalyser on please follow the instructions given in the section "Al tering oven settings" (Standard setting

02) of your operating instructions.

Cleaning the appliance

Oven interior

Before use please remove – any stickers from the floor of the

oven, baking trays, grill pan etc.

– any cork spacers at the sides

above the oven cavity.

New appliances have a slight smell on first use. Running the oven empty for at least an hour at a high temperature will dissipate this more quickly.

Turn the oven function selector to

"Fan Heat D".

While the indicator light for the "+/–"

button is still on, alter the oven temper ature.

^ Select the highest temperature

(250 °C) with the "+" button.

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

Ensure the room is well ventilated during this process.

Wipe out the oven interior using warm water and a little washing up liquid. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not close the oven door until the oven interior is dry.

Rinse the accessories.

Description of the oven systems

Fan Heat D

This system works by the circulation of heated air.

A fan situated on the back wall of the oven sucks in the air, heats it over a ring element and blows the heated air through the carefully spaced openings in the rear panel of the oven, enabling approx. 20°C lower temperatures to be used than with the Conventional heat ing 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 ac tivated 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.

Auto Roast E

The oven heats initially to a high tem perature 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 prese lected setting.

If a temperature of at least 140°C is se lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac tivated 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 se lected, the "rapid heat-up" feature is ac tivated automatically.

The fan and its heating element switch in to heat the appliance up more rap idly. This saves energy.

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.

Description of the oven systems

Defrost G

Defrost can be operated without heat ing, or at a temperature of up to 50°C. When the defrost system is used with out 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

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 grill ing.

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.

Grill 1 m

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed, before grill ing.

The inner part of the upper heating ele ment 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.

The increase of temperature can be followed in the display until the target temperature is reached.

N.B. with Auto Roast E: the oven heats initially to a high temper ature (230 °C) to seal the meat to keep it succulent and tasty. As soon as this temperature has been reached, the oven temperature automatically drops back down to the pre-selected setting. The display, however, will only show the temperature rise until the target or pre-selected temperature is reached!

If the oven door is opened, or if you reduce the target temperature, the de crease is shown in 1° steps.

* the initial boosted temperature is

approx. 230°C, continuation temperature 160°C

Oven - use

Using the oven

Place food on an appropriate runner

level in the oven. Turn the oven function selector to the

required setting.

The following will light up:

the recommended temperature in the

–

oven display, and the indicator light between the "–"

–

and "+" buttons.

Whilst this light is on, you can change the recommended temperature with the "+" and "–" buttons.

Each press of a button increases the time you have in which to input the temperature.

As soon as the indicator light between the "+" and "–" buttons has gone out the oven heating switches on.

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.

At the end of the cooking time take the food out of the oven and switch it off.

In order to do this:

^ Press the "p" button.

Enter the required temperature with the "+/–" button, when the light be tween the two buttons is lit up.

Turning the function selector to "0" can cels all settings and the symbols in the display go out.

However, if the roast probe is still en gaged in its socket the "e" symbol will contine to show in the display.

If a minute minder time has been en tered, the "l" symbol is lit and the dis play shows the time counting down.

Oven - use

Entering your own recommended temperature

If you frequently work with a tempera ture which differs from the factory rec ommended one, it is also possible to enter your own recommended tempera ture. (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.

Rapid heat-up

With the "Fan Heat D", "Auto Roast E" and "Conventional A" heating systems, "rapid heat-up" is switched on automati cally 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.

To save in memory press the "p" but ton until the audible tone is heard.

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 pro grammed temperatures are lost and must be re-entered.

Exception: if the temperature is in creased before the required tempera ture is reached, "rapid heat-up" remains switched on.

Oven - use

To switch off "rapid heat-up"

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

Select the oven system and tempera

ture for the cooking process.

"Rapid heat-up" can be switched off

as soon as the indicator light be tween the "+" and "-" button has gone out and the actual temperature ap pears in the display.

^ 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, Pro grammable function 06").

Pre-heating the oven

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

With "Fan Heat D":

Pre-heat for foods which cook in less

–

than 20 minutes and for foods such 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 min-

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

To pre-heat

^ Turn the function selector to the re-

quired function.

Select the required temperature.

When the required temperature has been reached: Put the food into the oven.

Oven - use

Energy-save function

If you are programming a cooking pro cess using the automatic timer, or if you are cooking with the roast probe, the re sidual 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.

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

Oven lighting

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

To switch the lighting back on for a

short time, press one of the buttons.

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

If preferred, you can programme the oven lighting to stay on for the duration of the cooking programme, (see "Al tering oven settings, setting 05").

Night dimming

Between the hours of 22:00 and 6:00 the lighting in the clock / timer display is dimmed automatically.

Turning the function selector or pressing a button on the control panel during this period will bring the timer display back on in full brightness.

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

Setting the minute minder

The minute minder can be used to time any activity in the kitchen, e.g. boiling eggs. (It cannot be used to switch the oven off at the end of a set time).

You can set the minute minder at the same time as another programme, e.g. as a reminder to baste your roast or add seasoning etc.

To enter / to change a time:

(1 min. - 23 hrs. 59 mins.)

^ Press the "l" button.

^ Enter the required time in hours and

minutes with the "+" button.

When the "+/–" button indicator light goes out, the time set starts counting down in minutes.

At the end of the set time:

an audible tone sounds for approx. 5

–

seconds. At the same time the "l" symbol

–

flashes for approx. 1 minute.

The audible tone and the flashing sym bol can be cancelled at any time by pressing the "l" button.

To cancel the minute minder:

^ Press the "l" button.

^ Use the "–" button to set the time to

"0:00".

If the oven is being used at the same time, the minute minder time period only shows for a short time. Then the oven or roast probe core temperature shows again in the display. The "l" symbol continues to be visible as a re minder that the minute minder is work ing.

Altering oven settings

Baking

The following settings are recom mended 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 sys tem.

Fan Heat D, Intensive baking F

Most types of heat-resistant tins or dishes are suitable, including thin-walled 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 re flect heat which means that the heat does not penetrate to the food effec tively 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.

Fan Heat D

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

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.

If baking on three levels place tins on the grill pan on the 1st runner po sition 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.

Place the tin or dish on the baking tray on the 1st runner from the bottom only.

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 re quired 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 in the oven.

General notes

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 the Miele Cookbook give suggestions for tem perature, runner heights and times.

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 ac cessories"). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort. This distortion would in crease with subsequent use. Deep frozen foods such as oven chips or potato croquettes can be cooked on the baking tray or grill pan.

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

We recommend the following settings for roasting in the oven:

Auto Roast E

–

Conventional 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 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

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 pro ceeds, 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.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

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

The tip of the probe measures the core temperature at the centre of the meat continuously. When the pre-selected core tempera ture is reached, the oven heating is au tomatically 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

^ Prepare the meat in the usual way.

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

–

area of the meat.

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

The roast probe should not be used for poultry or game birds as these contain a lot of bone.

Insert the probe as far as possible into the meat. The tip of the probe must reach the central area of the meat.

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:

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 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 in dicator light for the "+/–" button is on.

If necessary this food core tempera ture 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 dis

played is 20°C, so this will also be shown until the roast probe registers 20°C.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

Time left display

After a certain time the estimated resid ual 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 elec tronics 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 cho

–

sen,

this will cancel all the residual time in formation, and the actual temperature will reappear.

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

lated.

Cooking time is completed automati cally.

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.

Roasting with the Roast Probe

End of cooking time

As soon as the chosen core tempera ture 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 alu minium 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 temper ature first rising and then sinking.

The time taken to roast meat by tem perature 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 ac curate result and the time required should be calculated using tradi tional methods.

Put the roasting filter in front of the fan grille in the back of the oven.

Grilling

Grill 2 n

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

Grilling with the oven door shut saves energy and minimizes cook ing 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

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 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.

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

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

Grilling

Preparing food for grilling

Clean, wipe and season with pepper and herbs. Do not season meat with salt before grilling as this draws the juices 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

Most items should be turned half way

through cooking.

Temperature

For thin cuts of meat

(e. g. chops or steak) . . . . . . . . . 275 °C

For grilling larger items,

(e. g. rolled meat, poultry) . . . . . 240 °C

See the grill chart for more information. To grill thicker pieces of food more

gradually after an initial high tempera ture, continue grilling at a lower temper ature setting to allow the food to cook through to the centre.

Grilling time

– Flat pieces of fish and meat usually

need 5 – 6 minutes per side depending on their texture.

– Use the Auto roast function for

thicker cuts.

Assemble the rack on the grill pan and use the anti-splash tray if you have one (see "Optional accesso ries").

Place the food on the rack.

Select the required grill setting.

Set the temperature.

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 min utes with the door shut before grilling.

Place the grill pan under the grill and shut the door.

For thin cuts use

runner level 4 or 5

For thickers cuts use

runner level 3 or 4

Tips on grilling

It is best to grill food of a similar thick ness at the same time so that the grill

ing time for each item does not vary too greatly.

One way of finding out how far through a piece of meat has been cooked is to press down on it with a spoon: –

If there is very little resistance to the pressure of the spoon, it is still red on the inside ("rare").

–

If there is some resistance the inside will be pink ("medium").

–

If there is great resistance, it is throughly cooked through ("well done").

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).

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 assem

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

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.

NB This chart is intended as a guide only, individual tastes and cuts of meat will vary. * Care should be taken when using the rotisserie for duck. Because of the fat content,

spitting is inevitable and will cause a lot of fat splashes around the oven. Fit the roasting filter in the back of the oven.

Defrosting

Turn the function selector to

"Defrost G"

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

Where possible remove the packag

–

ing 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 de

pends 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.

Casseroles

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

Please note:

Cover dishes which are to be cooked

in their own juice and/or steam, e.g. po tatoes or vegetables, so that they do not dry out. If there is no lid use alu minium foil or damp cooking parch ment.

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.

Cleaning and care

Appliance front and control panel

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 suit able 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,

This will help prevent grease or other deposits adhering to surfaces and be coming difficult to remove.

Stainless steel fronted appli

ances

The appliance front and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.

Please observe the cleaning instruc tions 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, ac-

ids or chlorides,

–

abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. pow der cleaners and cream cleaners,

–

abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previ ously used with abrasive cleaning agents.

–

abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previ ously used with abrasive cleaning agents,

–

oven sprays.

Clean the door handle and the control elements regularly, preferably after each use.

To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel

can also be used. Apply sparingly with even pressure us ing a soft cloth following the direction of the "grain".

Cleaning and care

Stainless steel coloured controls

The controls may suffer discolour ation or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.

Avoid:

cleaning agents containing soda, ac

–

ids 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.

If you are unsure about a particular product or need further advice please contact your nearest Miele Sales office. See back page for ad dress.

Baking tray, grill pan, racks and side supports

The surfaces of these have been

treated with PerfectClean enamelling. See "PerfectClean" for cleaning instruc tions.

Roasting filter

Clean in a solution of hot water and a

little washing up liquid or in the dish

washer. 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.

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.

Rotisserie

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

Cleaning and care

PerfectClean

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

The enamelled surfaces of the oven in terior, 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.

PerfectClean surfaces can be treated as you would treat glass. If you are un sure 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. Dan ger of burning!

Normal soiling

Clean as soon as possible after each use with a dishcloth, soft sponge (such as the Vileda sponge supplied with ovens in the UK) 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 re move.

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 recom mended. 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!

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 re moved 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 dis colouration 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 effi ciency of the enamel.

When baking items with a high salt con tent (e.g. continental pretzels) place them on baking parchment in the bak ing 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 de scribed. Otherwise, the high temper atures can cause deposits to be come 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.

Take all accessories out of the oven.

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.

^ 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.

^ 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.

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

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.

Cleaning and care

To remove the runners

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

^ Pull the runner out of the front fixing

to release it.

To remove the catalytic side liners (if fitted)

^ Unscrew the fixing using a coin.

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

Then pull forward and take out of the oven.

Cleaning and care

To remove the back panel

Pull down on the fixing knob for the

element to release it.

^ Gently lower the element.

^ Use a size 7 screwdriver to loosen

the screws in the rear panel and remove the panel.

^ Check the fan and clean off any soil-

ing.

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

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

To lower the upper heating element

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

Take out the runners.

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

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

Hold the roof liner firmly and unscrew the knurled knob.

Take out the roof liner.

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

Installation, maintenance and repairs to the electrical components of this appliance should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accor dance 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 . . .

Correcting minor faults

Use the slide opener to lift the lamp

cover from its retainers.

. . . the oven does not heat up.

Check whether, ^ the selector switch is set to the func-

tion 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 Ser vice Department.

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

Make sure the halogen lamp is con nected 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.

^ 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 sur

face and damage it. Please follow the

manufacturer's instructions. Reassemble in the reverse order, care

fully ensuring all parts are correctly in place.

Take out the runners.

Correcting minor faults

Put the lamp cover firmly back into

place.

. . . there is a distinctive smell of food when using the oven

Make sure the catalyser is switched on. See "Altering oven settings, setting 02"

. . . 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.

. . . 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 rec

ipe. 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:

. . . 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 tem perature 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.

when baking with Conventional A: –

the colour and composition of the baking tins being used. Light col oured, 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 circulat ing air sometimes picks up spices, which are then deposited on the oven interior walls. Such residues are not re moved 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 auto-

matically 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 immedi ately by simply turning the oven func tion selector to "0" and then entering the process again.

–

If "F9", appears in the display, this may mean that the maximum temper ature of the appliance has been ex ceeded.

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

If this fault message occurs repeat edly, 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 be fore the system controlling the en ergy-save function comes into opera

tion. 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 be fore the system controlling residual time comes into operation. Sometimes these do not occur.
