~
become hot during use. To avoid burns, young children should be kept away.
Technical safety
Installation, maintenance and
~
repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
Before installation, check the
~
appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance could be dangerous.
The electrical safety of this
~
appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
6
Page 7
Warning and safety instructions
Before connecting the appliance to
~
the mains supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a competent person if in doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the
~
mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
For safety reasons, this appliance
~
may only be used when it has been built in.
Never open the housing of the
~
appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
While the appliance is under
~
warranty, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
During installation, maintenance and
~
repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
it is switched off at the isolator,
–
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
–
countries where this is applicable),
it is switched off at the isolator.
–
Ensure that current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
Faulty components must only be
~
replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

Warning and safety instructions
Correct use
Danger of burning.
,
High temperatures are produced by the oven.
Use oven gloves when placing food
~
in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven. Be very careful that you do not burn yourself on the top heating / grill element. Danger of burning.
Never leave the appliance
~
unattended when cooking with oil or fats, as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat. Fire hazard!
Do not exceed the recommended
~
grilling times when using the "Full Grill Y" / "Fan Grill \" functions. Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning, or could even cause it to catch fire. Fire hazard!
Do not use "Full Grill Y" / "Fan
~
Grill \" to finish baking part-cooked rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Fire hazard! Use "Fan Plus U" or "Conventional V" instead.
If using alcohol in your recipes, high
~
temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and even to ignite on the hot heating elements. Alcohol should be burnt off before the dish is placed in the oven to avoid this danger.
Cover any food which is left in the
~
oven to be kept hot. Any moisture in the food could lead to corrosion damage in the oven. This also prevents the food from drying out.
If you wish to complete a cooking
~
process using the residual heat in the oven, leave the function selector at the position set and turn the temperature selector to the lowest setting. Do not switch the appliance off until the food has been removed. Increased moisture in the oven could cause condensation to form which could lead to – corrosion in the oven compartment. – damage to the control panel, worktop
and surrounding kitchen furniture.
Never cover the floor of the oven
~
with aluminium foil when using the oven on "Conventional V" / "Intensiv Bake O" / "Gentle Bake K" / "Rapid Heat-up S". This would cause concentrations of heat which could cause damage to the floor of the oven. For this reason, do not place a dish, tin or baking tray directly on the oven floor.
If using a tray made by a different manufacturer, make sure that there is a gap of at least 6 cm between the bottom of the tray and the floor of the oven.
8
Page 9
Warning and safety instructions
Never add water to food on a hot
~
baking tray or directly onto food in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel.
Always ensure that food is suitably
~
cooked or reheated. 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 during cooking.
Only plastic containers which are
~
declared by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in an oven may be used. Other types of plastic containers melt at high temperatures, and could damage the oven.
Do not lean or sit on an open oven
~
door, or place heavy items on it. Make sure that nothing gets trapped between the door and the oven compartment. This could damage the oven. The oven door can support a maximum load of 15 kg.
Do not use the appliance to heat up
~
the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects near the appliance could catch fire.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts
~
and accessories. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, this will invalidate the warranty, and Miele cannot accept liability.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
Do not heat up unopened tins or jars
~
of food in the oven. Pressure can build up and they may explode, resulting in injury or damage.
Do not push pots and pans around
~
on the oven floor, as this could damage the surface.

Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Features
Oven controls
The controls offer various cooking programmes to bake, roast and grill.
Appliances with a clock timer also offer
a time of day display,
–
a minute minder,
–
a timer to automatically switch
–
cooking programmes off.
Cooling fan
A cooling fan will come on automatically when a cooking programme is started. 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 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 on the oven housing unit. When the temperature in the oven has fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will switch off automatically.
PerfectClean treated surfaces
The following surfaces have been treated with PerfectClean enamel:
much easier to keep clean than conventional enamel, if cleaned regularly.
See "Cleaning and care" for more information.
Catalytic enamelled surfaces
The back panel is 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.
See "Cleaning and care" for more information.
Retractable controls
The controls are retractable. Pressing the controls will release or retract them.
Only retract the controls when at "0", otherwise they will be damaged.
Energy efficiency rating according to EN 50304
This appliance is rated energy efficiency class A in accordance with EN 50304. It refers to the programme "Fan Plus U".

Accessories
The following accessories are supplied with this oven.
These and other accessories are also available to order from Miele or your Chartered Agent. See "Optional accessories" for more information.
Universal tray and rack
The universal tray and rack have safety notches that prevent them being pulled right out when they only need to be partially pulled out.
Anti-splash insert
(depending on model)
The anti-splash insert should be placed in the universal tray 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.
Handle
When pushing the rack back in, always ensure that the safety notches are at the rear of the oven.
They can then only be taken out of the oven by raising them upwards and then pulling them out.
(depending on model)
The handle makes it easier to take the trays and rack out of the oven.

same time. Lower temperatures can be used than with
–
"Conventional V" as the Fan plus system distributes the heated air around the food.
For cooking dishes which require a moist topping and
–
a crisp base such as pizza and quiche lorraine. Intensive Bake is not suitable for baking biscuits or for
–
roasting as the juices will become too dark.
For baking traditional recipes, e.g. fruit cake,
–
casseroles. – Also ideal for soufflés. – If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven
temperature for Conventional, 10°C lower than that
recommended.
The cooking duration does not need to be changed.
–
For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry. –
The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by
the fan. This enables a lower temperature to be
selected than when using "Grill Y".
–
For the gentle defrosting of frozen food.
–
For pre-heating the oven compartment.
The oven function required must then be selected.

Baking tips
Please refer to the baking chart for recommended temperature ranges, shelf levels and durations.
Handling and preparing food correctly is essential for maintaining good health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them.
Temperature, baking duration
Bakeware
Material
UOMost types of heat-resistant tins
or dishes are suitable.
V Use baking tins made from dark
metal or enamel or from aluminium with a matt finish. Heat resistant glass and ceramic dishes can also be used.
Bright, shiny metal tins result in uneven or poor browning and in some cases cakes might not cook properly.
To achieve even results without over-browning the food
– always select the lowest
temperature given in the chart. Do not set a temperature higher than that recommended. Do not set a temperature higher than that recommended. Increasing the temperature may reduce the cooking time, but will lead to uneven browning, and unsatisfactory cooking results.
–
check if the food is cooked at the end of the shortest time quoted. To check if a cake is ready, insert a wooden skewer into the centre. It is ready if the skewer comes out clean, without dough or crumbs sticking to it.
Baking paper
Because of its PerfectClean anti-stick surface, the universal tray does not need to be greased or lined with baking parchment for baking. Baked goods are easily removed when done.
Baking paper is only necessary when baking:
–
Anything with a high salt content (e. g. pretzels, bread sticks), because sodium can damage the PerfectClean surface.
–
Meringues or biscuits with a high egg-white content, because they are more likely to stick.
22
Page 23
Baking tips
Universal tray
When baking cakes with fresh fruit toppings and tall sponge cakes place
the tin in the universal tray to catch any spillages and keep the oven cleaner.
Retangular tins
Place cakes in rectangular tins with the longer side across the width of the oven for optimum heat distribution and even results.
Shelf levels
The shelf levels are counted from the bottom of the oven upwards (1 = lowest, 4 = highest).
Trays Shelf levels *
U 11
2 1 and 3
3 1,2and4**
O 1 1 or 2
V 1 1 or 2
Frozen food
When baking frozen products such as cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Place them on baking paper on the rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra accessories"). Placing them on the universal tray can cause the metal to distort. This distortion would increase with subsequent use.
Small items of frozen food such as oven chips or potato croquettes can be cooked on the universal tray. Place them on baking parchment and select the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Turn several times during cooking.
* Always use the rack on shelf level 1
for cakes in tins.
** When baking moist cakes, bread etc
do use more than two trays at the same time.
If you are using the universal tray and baking trays for baking on more than one shelf level at the same time, the universal tray should be placed below the baking trays.

Any heat-proof containers can be used: the Miele Gourmet oven dish, roasting pans with a lid, made from earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china or glass, roasting bags, the rack in the universal tray.
Shelf level
1st shelf level from the bottom
Pre-heating
Generally not required Place the pot on the rack in a cold oven.
Temperature
Please refer to the roasting chart.
Roasting time
Please refer to the roasting chart
We recommend roasting in a covered pot, as
this ensures that sufficient stock remains for
–
making gravy. the oven stays cleaner than with open roasting.
–
When using Conventional V for poultry up to 1 kg, beef/fillet, and fish, use shelf level 2.
Pre-heating is only required when roasting beef/fillet.
– Do not select a higher temperature than that
suggested. The meat will become brown, but will not be cooked properly.
– With Fan Plus U, a temperature of 20 °C less than
for Conventional is sufficient.
–
For cuts which weigh 3 kg or more, select a temperature approx. 10 °C lower than that given in the roasting chart. Roasting will take longer at the lower temperature, but will be more even.
–
For roasting directly on the rack, select a temperature that is about 20°C lower than for roasting in a covered pot.
To calculate the roasting time: The traditional method is to allow 15 to 20 minutes per lb/454 grams, according to type of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes, adjusting the length of time as roasting proceeds to obtain the required result.
27

Roasting tips
Useful tips
Browning
Browning only occurs towards the end of the roasting time. Remove the lid about halfway through the roasting time if a more intensive browning result is desired.
Standing time
At the end of the programme, 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.
Roasting poultry
For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking time with slightly salted water.
Frozen meat
Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before roasting.

Grilling tips
Preparing food for grilling
Clean, wipe dry 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. Do not use other types of fat as they can get too dark, burn and cause smoke.
Clean 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
Useful tips
It is best to grill food of a similar thickness at the same time so that the grilling time for each item does not vary too greatly.
To grill thicker pieces of food more gradually after an initial high temperature, continue grilling at a lower temperature setting or use a lower shelf runner to allow the food to cook through to the centre.
One way of finding out how far through a piece of meat has been cooked is to press down on it with a spoon:
– If there is very little resistance to the
pressure of the spoon, it is still red on the inside ("rare").
– If there is some resistance the inside
will be pink ("medium").
– If there is great resistance, it is
thoroughly cooked through ("well done").
^
Assemble rack, anti-splash insert (if available) and the universal tray as illustrated.
^
Place the food on the rack.
^
Select the required function and set the temperature.
^
Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the door shut before grilling.

Defrosting
The Defrost P function uses the fan to circulate air at room temperature.
Please note:
Where possible, remove the
–
packaging and put the food to be defrosted on the universal tray or into a suitable dish.
When defrosting poultry, put it on the
–
rack over the universal tray to catch the defrosted liquid so that the meat is not lying in this liquid.
It is particularly important to
,
observe food hygiene rules when defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid from the defrosted poultry. Pour it away, and wash the tray, the sink and your hands. Danger of salmonella poisoning.
– Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently soft to take herbs and seasoning.
Defrosting times
The time needed for defrosting depends on the type and weight of the food, and at what temperature it was deep frozen. The following chart is for guidance only. It is important to manually check the food to ensure it is thoroughly defrosted.
Chicken, 800 g ..........90-120 min.
Meat, 500 g..............60-90 min.
Meat, 1,000 g ...........90-120 min.
Sausage, 500 g ..........30-50 min.
Fish, 1000 g .............60-90 min.
Strawberries, 300 g .......30-40 min.

Cooking
Cooking ready meals
We recommend using Fan Plus U.
Cook frozen desserts and pizza on baking paper on the rack rather than in the universal tray. Cooking large frozen items on the universal tray can cause the metal to distort. This distortion will increase with each subsequent use. Frozen food such as oven chips or croquette potatoes can, however, be cooked on the universal tray.

Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaner to
,
clean the appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Appliance front
Remove any soiling immediately. If not, it might become impossible to remove and could cause the surface to alter or discolour.
Clean the front using a microfibre cloth or with a solution of warm water and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge. Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth. For cleaning, you can also use a clean, damp microfibre cloth without any cleaning agent.
The external surfaces of this appliance are all susceptible to scratching. Scratches on glass surfaces could even cause a breakage in certain circumstances. Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the external surfaces.
Avoid damage to the surface. To prevent damage to your appliance when cleaning, do not use:
Cleaning agents containing soda,
–
ammonia, acids or chlorides
– Cleaning agents containing
descaling agents
– Abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
– Solvent-based cleaning agents
– Stainless steel cleaners
– Dishwasher detergent

The surface has been treated with PerfectClean.
Please refer to the section on "PerfectClean" for information on cleaning and care.
Rack, runners
Use warm water and washing-up liquid or non-abrasive stainless steel cleaning agents.
Oven interior
Danger of burning. Allow the oven to cool down before cleaning by hand.
It is best to clean the oven interior each time the oven is used. If this is not done, subsequent soiling from baking and roasting will become worse and make cleaning harder. In extreme cases this can cause damage to the surface material.
The removable back panel is coated with a dark grey catalytic enamel. See "Cleaning and care" for information on cleaning catalytic enamelled panels.
To make cleaning easier,
remove the oven door,
–
dismantle the door,
–
take out the side runners,
–
remove the catalytic back panel,
–
lower the top heating/grill element.
–
Instructions for doing so are given further on in this section.
Seal and inside of the oven door
Grease desposits on the seal between the inside of the oven door and the oven interior can cause it to become brittle and cracked.
It is best to clean the seal and the inside of the door after each programme with a cloth or a clean sponge and a solution of hot water with a little washing up liquid. Wipe dry using a soft cloth. For cleaning, you can also use a clean, damp microfibre cloth without any cleaning agent.
The oven interior has been treated with a special type of enamelling called PerfectClean. Please refer to the section on "PerfectClean" for information on cleaning and care.

This surface has very good anti-stick
properties and 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.
Allow the oven to cool down
,
before cleaning by hand. Danger of burning!
For optimum performance of 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 become impossible.
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. Food can be sliced or cut up on the PerfectClean surface in the same way as on a baking tray with conventional enamel.
Do not use a ceramic knife on PerfectClean surfaces as it could cause scratching.
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, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– Cleaning agents for ceramic
cooktops,
–
Steel wool or metal scourers,
–
Abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
–
Oven spray must not be used in a hot oven or left on for too long,
–
PerfectClean enamelled items must not be washed in a dishwasher,
–
Selective cleaning with mechanical cleaning agents.
38
Page 39
Remove any residual cleaning agents with clean water as these will also hinder the anti-stick effect.
Normal soiling
Cleaning and care
Stubborn soiling, e.g. from roasting,
may need to be soaked first with a damp sponge to loosen it and, if necessary, a non-abrasive stainless steel spiral pad or a scraper suitable for glass can be used to remove it.
Clean as soon as possible after each use with a dishcloth, soft sponge or a soft nylon brush, and a solution of hot water and a little washing-up liquid. If necessary, the reverse of a non-scratching washing-up sponge can be used. Cleaning is made easier if soiling is first dampened with a solution of washing-up liquid.
Stubborn soiling
Remove the catalytic back panel before using oven spray. The chemicals used in oven sprays will damage catalytic enamel, rendering it ineffective.
Allow the PerfectClean surfaces to cool down to room temperature before cleaning. Apply a proprietary oven cleaning spray (such as the Original Miele oven cleaner) and leave to take effect for approx. ten minutes. When using the Original Miele oven cleaner, the time stated on the packaging can be slightly extended if needed. If necessary, the scouring pad on the back of a non-scratching washing-up sponge or a soft nylon brush can be used to loosen the soiling.
These cleaning tips will help to ensure that the surface is cleaned thoroughly.
Should the PerfectClean surface be damaged by any of the above measures not being heeded, it will still retain the anti-stick qualities of standard enamel and be as easy to keep clean as standard enamel.
Note:
– Soiling such as spilt juices and cake
mixtures is best removed whilst the oven or tray is still warm. Exercise caution, make sure the oven is not too hot - danger of burning.
– Spilt fruit juices or roasting residues
may cause lasting discolouration to the surfaces and can cause matt areas to appear. This discolouration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the enamel. Clean these following the instructions given above and do not use force to remove them.
Repeat the process if necessary.
After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clean water and then dry thoroughly.
39
Page 40
Cleaning and care
Catalytic enamel surfaces
The back panel is coated with dark grey catalytic enamel. Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off this surface when very high temperatures are used in the oven. The higher the temperature, the more effective the process.
The catalytic coating becomes ineffective through using – abrasive agents, – hard brushes or abrasive
sponges – oven sprays. Remove catalytic enamel parts from the oven before cleaning the PerfectClean oven surfaces with oven spray.
Note that deposits of spices, syrups and similar substances are not removed from the catalytic coating by this process. These should be removed by hand whilst still fresh, using a mild solution of hot water and washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge or brush. Remove the panels from the oven to do this.
Soiling caused by oil and grease splashes are removed from catalytic coated surfaces when the oven is heated to a high temperature. To do this:
Select Fan Plus U.
^
Set the highest temperature setting.
^
Run the oven interior for
^
approx. 1 hour. The length of time will depend on the level of soiling.
If the catalytic coated panel is very heavily soiled with oil and grease, a film will develop on the oven surface during the cleaning process which can be wiped off with warm water and a little washing-up liquid once cool.
^ Finally, clean the PerfectClean
surfaces and the inside of the door.
The timer can also be used to set the finish time. See "Entering the duration, start time or finish".
Any remaining soiling will gradually disappear with each subsequent use of the oven at high temperatures.
Should the catalytic coating on the back panel become ineffective through improper use or heavy soiling, a replacement can be obtained from Miele.
^
Take all accessories out of the oven.

Cleaning and care
Removing the oven door
The oven door is connected to the oven by hinges.
Before removing the door, the locking clamps on both hinges have to be released.
^ Open the door fully.
Return the door to an almost vertical
^
position.
Never attempt to pull the door off the hinge guides from a horizontal position. The hinges can flip back and cause damage to the appliance. Danger of injury!
^
To release the locking clamps on the hinges, turn them upwards as far as they will go until they are at an angle.
^
Hold the door securely at both sides and lift upwards off the hinge guides.
The door should be gripped firmly at the sides and not at the handle when being removed. The handle could break off and damage the door.
Make sure that you lift the door off evenly on both sides.

Cleaning and care
Dismantling the oven door
The oven door has seals on all sides to prevent vapours from getting in.
If condensate has worked its way in between the glass panes, the door can be dismantled in order to clean in between the panes.
Clean the glass in the same way as you would clean the appliance front. Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal tools to clean glass as these can scratch the surface. Scratches can cause the glass to break.
Do not use an oven spray. This will damage the surface of the aluminium surrounds.
To avoid the risk of breakage, it is advisable to place the panes on a table protected by a soft cloth (e.g. a towel).
You need to remove the door before it can be dismantled.
Place the door on a protective
^
surface (e.g. on a table cloth) to prevent it getting scratched. The door handle should line up with the edge of the table. Make sure the glass lies flat and does not get broken during cleaning.
42
^
Unscrew the Torx screws and remove the guides along with the trim and seal.
^
You can now remove the inner and middle panels.
Page 43
Lift the inner panel slightly and take
^
it out.
Cleaning and care
Clean the glass panes and other
^
parts with a damp microfibre cloth or a clean sponge and a solution of hot water with a little washing-up liquid.
Dry all parts with a soft cloth.
Reassemble the door again:
^ Insert the middle panel. Clip the
sealing strip back on and insert the panel.
^
Pull out the panel towards the front.
The sealing strips may become loose that are clipped onto the upper end of the pane of glass to the right and left of the guide runners. These strips stop the panes of glass from slipping in the frame.

Page 44
Cleaning and care
Place the side seals for the inner
^
panel in the grooves provided.
^
Insert the inner panel with the print facing downwards. Make sure that the side seals do not slip and that the panel is inserted as far as it will go.
^ Place the trim and the seal on the
pane of glass.
The correct position of the seals guarantees that no vapours can enter the oven during cooking.
^
Attach the guide runners and screw tight the trim.

Cleaning and care
To refit the door
^ Hold the door securely at both sides
and carefully fit it back onto the hinge guides.
Make sure that the door goes back on straight.
Open the door fully.
^
Flip both locking clamps back up as
^
far as they will go into a horizontal position. The stoppers on the locking clamps need to clip onto the lugs on the door.
It is essential that the clamps are locked after refitting the door. Otherwise the hinges could work loose, resulting in damage to the door.
