Description of the appliance
Features
Electronic controls
In addition to operating the various cooking programmes to bake, roast and grill the electronic controls also offer the following features:
–Clock display
–Minute minder
–Timer to automatically switch cooking programmes off, or on and off with automatic use made of residual heat
–User programmes
–Settings can be customised.
Safety features
You can activate a system lock, to prevent the appliance being used unintentionally. See "Changing settings - Safety" for details.
Safety switch-off is triggered automatically if the oven is operated for an unusually long period of time.
The period of time will depend on the particular oven function being used. The oven will switch off automatically and "Fault 55" will appear in the display. The oven can be used again immediately after switching it off and back on.
Cooling system
As soon as the oven is switched on, a cooling fan is automatically engaged. 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 are all treated with PerfectClean enamelling
–Oven interior
–Runners
–Baking tray
–Grill pan
–Rack
PerfectClean enamelled surfaces have very good anti-stick properties and are much easier to keep clean than conventional enamel, if cleaned regularly.
See "Cleaning and care" for more information.
Catalytic enamelled surfaces
The back panel and roof liner 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 keep inaccessible areas of the oven clean. See "Cleaning and care" for more information.
6
Description of the appliance
Catalyser
The oven's ventilation system is fitted with a catalyser.
It filters fat from the cooking vapours and thus reduces cooking smells.
Door contact switch
There is a door contact switch in 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.
Door buffer
There is a door buffer above the right hand door hinge. This cushions the door just before it shuts completely.
Energy efficiency rating according to EN 50304
These appliances are rated energy efficiency class A in accordance with EN 50304. Tests were carried out using Gentle Bake.
Accessories
The following accessories are supplied with this oven.
These and other accessories are also available to order from the Miele Spare Parts Dept. or your Miele Dealer. 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 them out.
7
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 or 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.
Roast probe
Rotisserie |
For grilling thicker items such as stuffed meat, poultry and kebabs.
The rotisserie fits into the grill pan for grilling or roasting. The grill pan goes into the first runner level and this automatically engages the rotisserie. The grill motor will then start up and turn the rotisserie. Food is grilled evenly on all sides as it rotates.
Slide opener
Use the slide opener for lifting off the light cover.
The roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored simply and reliably.

10
Warning and Safety instructions
The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply
when:
–it is switched off at the isolator
–or the mains fuse is withdrawn
–or the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable).
Ensure that current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been 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).
This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been 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 ensure that small children do not
touch the appliance when it is being used. The external parts of the oven such as the door glass, handle vent and control panel can become quite hot.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an
oven is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the oven or play with it.
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be seriously injured.
Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or
removing it.
When working with "Conventional" heating or when grilling, the element in the roof of the oven and the roof liner become very hot, and there is a danger of being burnt.
Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with this appliance.
If a replacement is necessary it can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts dept. or your Miele dealer.
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. These melt at high temperatures
and could damage the oven.
Do not heat up unopened tins or jars of food in the oven, as
pressure can build up and they may explode. This could result in injury or damage.
Do not push pots and pans around on the oven floor as this could
damage the surface.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
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 15 kg.
Make sure that nothing gets trapped between the door and the oven.
To prevent the risk of damage when closing the oven door hold
the handle firmly and do not let go of it until it is shut. 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 leading to moisture damage in the oven.
If you wish to leave food in the oven after cooking, e.g. to take advantage of the residual heat, do not
turn the oven off. Simply select the lowest temperature and leave the function at the position set.
Do not switch the appliance off until the food has been removed.
Otherwise, 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 remaining in the catalyser, causing an unpleasant smell to arise the next time the appliance is switched on.
Bake larger deep-frozen items such as pizzas on baking paper on the
rack itself or in the pizza pan (see "Extra accessories"). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan can cause the metal to distort. This distortion would increase with subsequent use.
Deep frozen foods such as oven chips or potato croquettes can be cooked on the baking tray or grill pan.
Never add water to food on a hot baking tray or grill pan or directly
onto food in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel.
Never line the floor of the oven with aluminium foil when using
Conventional top and bottom heat, Bottom heat or Intensive bake. Do not place a dish, tin, baking tray or grill pan on the floor of the oven.
If using a grill pan made by a different manufacturer make sure that there is a gap of at least 6 cm between the bottom of the pan and the floor of the oven.
If these instructions are not observed the bottom heat will be blocked. This can cause permanent damage to the floor of the oven.
Protective aluminium foil panels are available in retail outlets which are
supposed to protect the oven cavity from soiling and reduce the need for cleaning. If used, cooking and baking times will increase considerably. They can also cause damage to the appliance (e.g. by blocking the heat).

Warning and Safety instructions
General notes
Never leave the appliance unattended 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, objects left near the oven or hob could catch fire.
Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated.
Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cooking container. Some foods may contain micro organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking at temperatures over 70°C for a minimum of 10 minutes. Therefore when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked through. If in doubt select a longer cooking or reheating time.
It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food during cooking.
When using kitchen appliances connected to sockets near the oven, ensure that the cable cannot come into contact with hot cooking
zones or get trapped in a hot oven door, which could melt the cable insulation. Danger of electric shock.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. The steam could
reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
If using alcohol in your recipes high temperatures can cause the
alcohol to vaporise, and under adverse circumstances the alcohol can catch light on the hot heating elements. Alcohol should be burnt off before the dish is placed in the oven to avoid this danger.
In countries which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times.
Any damage which might be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.
Disposal of your old appliance
Before throwing an old appliance away it must first be made
unusable. Switch off and disconnect it from the power supply, cut off the cable directly behind the appliance and render any plug useless. This should be done by a competent person.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Description of the oven systems
Your oven has three heating elements:
–The ring heating element is located with the fan behind the back panel.
–The bottom heating element is underneath the oven floor.
–The top heating or grilling element is below the roof liner.
The number of heating elements used will depend on the oven function.
Oven functions
Your oven has a range of oven functions for preparing a wide variety of recipes.
You can call up four oven functions directly from the main menu. Alternatively you can change the functions listed to suit your particular preferences. See "Changing settings - Main menu".
You can call up all the available functions, including Light, with the "All functions" menu.
Fan plus
This system works by the circulation of heated air, created by the ring heating element and the fan.
The fan in the back wall of the oven draws in the air, heats it over the ring element and blows it back into the oven cavity through the openings around the edges of the back panel.
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 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. Lower temperatures can be used than with Conventional heat, as the Fan system circulates the heated air throughout the oven.
When using Fan plus you can cook on several levels at the same time.
Fan heat
Unlike Fan plus, this function uses the top and bottom heating elements to create the heat and then uses the fan in the back of the oven to distribute it around the oven cavity.
Only one level can be used with Fan heat.
19
Description of the oven systems
Auto roast
In this system, the heat is created by the ring heating element and the fan. The oven heats initially to a high temperature (230 °C) which seals 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.
Intensive bake
This method combines Fan plus with Bottom heat.
It is particularly useful for dishes which require a moist topping and crisp base like pizza and quiche lorraine.
Intensive bake is not suitable for baking thin biscuits etc. or for roasting as the juices will become too dark.
Conventional heat
Both the top and bottom heating elements are switched on. Radiant heat is directed onto the food from above and below.
It is useful where a fairly long cooking time and a deep colour and good rise are needed.
It is usually necessary to pre-heat the oven when using this method.
Top heat
Only the top heating element is switched on.
Suitable for browning dishes and giving gratins a crisp finish.
Bottom heat
Only the bottom heating element is switched on.
Select this function as the end of the baking time if you want your cake to be browner on the bottom than on the top.

Description of the oven systems
Economy grill
Pre-heat the oven for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed before grilling. The inner part of the top heating element acts as the grill. This will glow red for a few minutes after being switched on, and it is then ready for use.
For grilling small quantities of flat items, e.g. fish and cuts of meat such as chops, steaks and kebabs and for browning small dishes, e.g. macaroni cheese.
Grill with the oven door closed.
Full grill
Pre-heat the oven for at least 5 minutes with the oven door closed before grilling. The entire top heating element acts as the grill.
For grilling larger quantities of flat items and for browning larger dishes.
Grill with the oven door closed.
Fan grill
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 back wall of the oven. This enables a lower temperature to be selected than for conventional grilling.
For grilling thick cuts, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.
Grill with the oven door closed.
Gentle bake
With Gentle Bake the grill and bottom heating elements will be switched on.
It is suitable for bakes and gratins where a crispy finish is required.
Defrost
The ring heating element and the fan are used for defrosting.
For gently defrosting frozen food.
Defrosting can be carried out at temperatures between 25 to 50 °C.
Light
For switching on the oven light independently. This is useful when cleaning the oven and also works with the door removed.
