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 immedi ately 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.
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.
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.
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.
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
Roast probe
The roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored simply and reliably.
8
Use the slide opener for lifting off the light cover.
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 and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a competent person. Any plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind it to prevent misuse. See the "Warning and Safety" section of this booklet for further details.

Installation work and repairs may only be carried out by a suitably
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
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.
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.
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".
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.
You can call up all the available functions, including Light, with the "All functions" menu.
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.
20
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.
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.
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.

Using the oven
Changing the heating-up phase
The "Heating-up phase" option will appear with the Fan plus, Auto roast and Conventional functions.
A rapid heat-up phase is set as stan dard for these functions. The top and ring heating elements will come on together with the fan during the heating-up phase to enable the oven to reach the required temperature as quickly as possible.
The rapid heat-up phase should not be used for some items such as biscuits and small cakes because they will brown too quickly from the top.
If you want to switch off the rapid heat-up phase for a cooking process, call up the "Heating-up phase" option and select "Normal".
You can also switch off the rapid heat-up phase permanently. See "Changing settings - Heating-up phase".
-
Pre-heating the oven
Most dishes can be placed in a cold oven. They will then make use of the heat produced during the heating-up phase.
It is only necessary to pre-heat the oven in certain instances.
With Fan plus
Pre-heat the oven for foods which
cook in less than 20 minutes and for foods such as puff pastries and yeast mixtures where instant heat is
required to make them rise quickly. With Conventional heat – Pre-heat the oven where a fairly long
cooking time is required and a deep
colour and good rise are needed.
The rapid heat-up phase should be switched off when baking delicate items such as pizza, biscuits and small cakes. Otherwise they will get brown too quickly.

Baking
We recommend the following settings for baking:
Fan plus
Intensive bake
Conventional
Bakeware
For the best baking results make sure that you chose bakeware in a material suitable for the oven function you choose.
Fan plus, Intensive bake
Most types of heat-resistant tins or dishes are suitable.
Conventional
For best results, dark metal, aluminium or enamel tins with a matt finish are preferable. Heat resistant glass dishes can also be used.
Avoid bright, shiny metal tins. These reflect heat, which means that the heat does not penetrate to the food effectively, resulting in uneven or poor browning. In some cases the cakes might not cook properly.
Fan plus
Several shelf levels can be used at
the same time for baking. The recommended positions are: 1 tray = 1st shelf level from the
bottom
2 trays = 1st and 3rd shelf levels from
the bottom
3 trays = 1st, 2nd and 4th shelf levels
from the bottom
When baking moist biscuits, cakes or bread, do not bake on more than two levels.
Remember to remove the roasting filter from the back wall. Otherwise baking times would be longer and results uneven.
With Fan plus, the baking temperature required is lower than with Conventional. Refer to the baking chart and cookery book supplied with your oven.
Intensive bake
Remember to remove the roasting filter from the back wall. Otherwise baking times would be longer and results uneven.
Intensive bake is particularly useful for: –
dishes that require a moist topping and crisp base like pizza and quiche lorraine, or
where the base has not been pre-baked.
Place the tin or dish on the baking tray on the 1st shelf level from the bottom only. If the base is over cooked use a higher shelf level next time.
31
Baking
Conventional
Only use dark baking tins with a matt finish. Bright, shiny tins will give an uneven or pale result, and in some cases the cakes might not cook properly.
Place tins centrally on the rack on shelf
level 1 or 2.
Older recipes and cookery books
New guidelines (German standard DIN 44547 has been replaced by European standard EN 60350) have led to slight adjustments in oven temperature settings.
However, 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.
Tips on baking
Refer to the baking chart and the cookery book supplied with this oven for suggestions of temperatures, shelf levels and times.
With their anti-stick surface, PerfectClean baking trays and grill pans do not need to be greased or lined with baking parchment for baking. Baked goods are easily removed when done.
Baking parchment is only necessary when baking: – Anything with a high salt content
(e.g. pretzels, bread sticks), as the PerfectClean surface can be damaged by the sodium used in the dough;
– Meringues or biscuits with a high
egg-white content, which are more likely to stick.
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.
32
Place cakes in rectangular tins with the longer side across the width of the oven as shown, for optimum heat distribution and even results. Always use shelf level 1 for cakes in tins.
Frozen food
When baking frozen products such as cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer’s packaging. Place such items on baking paper directly on the rack or in the pizza pan (extra accessory). Placing them on the baking tray or in the grill pan 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 a baking tray or in the grill pan. Place them on baking parchment and select the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Turn several times during cooking.
Baking
Eating food which has been cooked correctly is important for good health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them.
To achieve even results without over-browning cakes and biscuits
always select the lowest
temperature given in the recipe. 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.

Roasting
We recommend the following settings for roasting in the oven:
Auto roast
Conventional
Auto Roast: 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.
We recommend roasting in a covered
pot
– this ensures that sufficient stock
remains for making gravy.
and the oven stays cleaner, too.
Roasting containers
Any heat-proof containers can be used: roasting pans with a lid, made from earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china or glass, and roasting foil are all suitable.
Miele also offer Gourmet oven dishes with lids which are ideal for roasting and cooking larger quantities of food.
Exception: Pre-heat at the temperature suggested when roasting beef.
Shelf levels
Use shelf level 1 for roasting. Exception:
Use shelf level 2 when using Conventional to roast – poultry up to 1 kg, – roast beef, – fish.
Temperature
Please refer to 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.
With Auto roast a temperature setting of 40°C less than that 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.
When roasting on the rack, place the rack over the grill pan.
Place the roasting pan on the rack into a cold oven.
36
Roasting
Older recipes and cookery books
New guidelines (German standard DIN 44547 has been replaced by European standard EN 60350) have led to slight adjustments in oven temperature settings.
However, 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.
Calculating the roasting time
The roasting time will depend on the type of meat, the size and thickness of the cut, and can be calculated as follows:
The traditional British method is to allow 15 to 20 minutes per lb/454 grammes, according to type of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes, adjusting the length of time as roasting proceeds to obtain the required result.
Pot roasting
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
/8litre of water when roasting a large, lean joint of meat (2 – 3 kg) or roasting poultry with a high fat content.
Roasting on the rack
Place the rack on top of the grill pan. Season the meat and place on the rack.
Roasting poultry
For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking time with slightly salted water.
Frozen meat
Deep frozen meat should be thoroughly defrosted before roasting.
Tips on roasting
Browning only occurs towards the end
of roasting time. Remove the lid about halfway through the roasting time if a more intensive browning result is desired.
After the roasting process is finished
take the roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium foil and leave to stand for about 10 minutes. This helps retain juices when the meat is carved.
37
Using the roast probe
The tip of the probe is pushed into the centre of the meat where it measures the core temperature continuously. When the pre-selected core temperature is reached, the oven heating is switched off automatically.
The roast probe can be used with the following functions:
Auto roast
Conventional heat
Fan plus
Fan grill
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 over the grill pan. Roasting bags or foil may also be used. 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.
We do not advise using the roast probe with poultry or fish. Because of the amount of bone and cavity space it is difficult to find a good place to insert the probe.
^
Insert the probe into the meat until the tip of the probe reaches the centre of the meat.
38
Using the roast probe
Place the food in the oven.
^
Insert the plug of the roast probe into
^
the socket until you feel it engage.
^ Close the door. ^ Select the required function.
At first the recommended oven temperature (e.g. 160°C) will appear
in the display. ^ Alter the pre-set temperature if
necessary
^ Call up and change the "Core
temperature".
The recommended core temperature of 60°C will appear in the display. This can be altered within a range of 30°C to 99°C . The core temperature required will depend on what is being roasted. See the Roasting chart for suggested temperatures.
Once the entry has been accepted
Time left display After a certain time the estimated time
remaining (i.e. the time left to run),
appears in the oven display. The actual core temperature is no longer displayed and cannot be called up.
The time remaining is calculated from the oven temperature selected, the required core temperature and the pattern of the increasing core temperature.
The time remaining first shown is an estimate. As the cooking process continues the time remaining is revised continuously, and a more accurate revised figure shown.
If, while the time remaining is showing in the display:
– the oven or core temperature is
altered,
– or a different oven function is
chosen,
all the time remaining information will be cancelled and the actual core temperature will re-appear in the display.
If the oven door is held open for some time, the time remaining will be recalculated.
The cooking duration is calculated automatically.
the oven will start heating up.
the core temperature rise can be followed in the display,
39
Using the roast probe
Shortly before the end of the cooking duration, the oven heating switches off.
The Energy-save function then comes into action.
If the oven temperature is altered or the core temperature increased, the oven heating will switch on again.
As soon as the core temperature selected has been reached
the oven will switch itself off
automatically. the cooling fan will continue to run for
a while.
Note
You can also delay the start of the programme.
When finished, cover the meat with aluminium foil and allow to stand for approx. 10 minutes. During this time the core temperature rises another 5 – 10°C.
If the roast probe is left in the food at the end of cooking, the oven display will show the core temperature first rising and then sinking.
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.
– the meat is not sufficiently roasted to
your taste.
The duration for roasting meat by temperature using the probe is similar to the duration when cooking by time.

Grilling
Grill with the oven door closed. If you grill with the door open the hot air will escape from the oven and not get cooled by the cooling fan. Control elements on the oven could get hot. Danger of burning!
Grill settings
Put the roasting filter in front of the fan in the back of the oven when grilling.
Grill - full
Grill - half
For grilling thin cuts and for browning food. The inner part of the upper heating element gets hot.
For grilling large quantities of thin cuts and for browning food in large dishes. The whole of the grill element gets hot.
Fan grill
For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.
With Fan grill you can use the roast probe to monitor grilling. Please refer to the Roasting chart for core temperature settings.
Do not use the roast probe when grilling with the rotisserie. The cable will tangle up around the rotisserie and get damaged!
42
Grilling
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
Grilling with the rotisserie
Depending on model, your appliance may be fitted with a rotisserie.
The rotisserie is ideal for grilling thicker items such as stuffed meat, poultry and kebabs.
^ Fit the rotisserie supports into the grill
pan as illustrated.
^
Assemble the rack on the grill pan as illustrated.
^
Place the food on the rack.
^
Select the oven function required.
^
Set the temperature.
^
Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the door shut before grilling.
^
Place the grill pan under the grill and shut the door.
For thin cuts use shelf level 3 or 4 For thicker cuts use shelf level 1 or 2
^
Most items should be turned half way through cooking.
^
Secure the meat to the rotisserie spit using clamps as illustrated making sure it is held centrally. Meat should be balanced in the middle to give even rotation.

See the grill chart for more information. To grill thicker pieces of food more
gradually after an initial high temperature, continue grilling at a lower temperature setting to allow the food to cook through to the centre.
Insert the pointed end of the

^ Place the grill pan holding the
assembled rotisserie in the oven on the shelf level 1.
The rotisserie will fit into the motor slot on the back wall of the oven.
Special clamps for grilling poultry and kebabs on the rotisserie are available from your dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
Grilling times
– Flat pieces of fish and meat usually
need 6 – 8 minutes per side
depending on their texture. – Thicker pieces will need longer. – With rolled meats allow approx.
10 minutes per cm diameter.
Tips on grilling
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.
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").
44
If there is great resistance, it is
throughly cooked through ("well
done").

Defrosting
You can also use the oven for defrosting.
To defrost select Fan plus with a maximum temperature of 50 °C.
For defrosting meat and delicate foods, use the lowest possible temperature (25 °C).
Please note:
Where possible remove the
packaging and put the food to be defrosted on a baking tray or into a dish.
– 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 poisoning!
Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently soft to take herbs and seasoning.

seal between the appliance door and
the cooking compartment regularly, preferably after each use. This will help to prevent grease and
other deposits adhering to the surfaces and becoming difficult to remove and also in some cases, causing discolouration. Grease desposits can also cause the seal to become brittle and crack.
^ All surfaces and controls should 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, which is suitable for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals.
To prevent the risk of scratches and damage to the surface structure of glass, stainless steel and aluminium fronted appliances pay particular attention to the following cleaning instructions.
Glass surfaces
Glass surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasions.
Avoid: – abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
sharp metal tools,
oven sprays.
48
Cleaning and care
Aluminium fronted appliances
Aluminium is affected by the way that light falls on it, by the surrounding environment and by the angle you observe it from.
Aluminium surfaces may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.
Aluminium surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.
Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides, – abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream
cleaners, – abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been
previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents, –
stainless steel cleaning agents, –
cleaning agents containing
descaling agents, –
dishwasher detergent,
Stainless steel fronted appliances
Stainless steel surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasion.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a Miele E-Cloth or with a proprietary non-abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel.
Avoid:
cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides, abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers,
or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents.
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel, such as Neoblank (available from the Miele Spare Parts Department) can also be used. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the label and apply sparingly with an even pressure following the direction of the grain.
oven sprays.
49
Cleaning and care
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.
Baking tray, grill pan, racks and runners
The surfaces of these have been treated with PerfectClean enamel.
Please refer to the section "PerfectClean" for information on cleaning and care.
Roasting filter
Clean in a solution of hot water and a little washing up liquid or in the dishwasher.
If cleaned in the dishwasher, results are better if the filter is placed horizontally in the basket. 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
This should be wiped clean with a damp cloth only.
Do not put the roast probe into water, or clean it in the dishwasher as this would damage it.
Rotisserie
Clean in a solution of hot water and a little washing up liquid. If necessary a non-abrasive proprietary stainless steel cleaner may be used.
50
Cleaning and care
PerfectClean
Before using for the first time remove any stickers from PerfectClean surfaces.
The enamelled surfaces of the oven interior, baking tray, grill pan, rack and side supports have been treated with a special type of enamelling called "PerfectClean".
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 unsure whether a particular cleaning product is suitable for PerfectClean consider whether you could clean a window pane with the product without damaging it.
Food can be sliced or cut up on the PerfectClean surface in the same way as on a baking tray with conventional enamel.
Allow the oven and any accessories to cool down before cleaning. Danger of burning!
Normal soiling
Clean as soon as possible after each use with a dishcloth, soft sponge (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 remove.
Stubborn soiling
Stubborn soiling e.g. from roasting may need to be soaked first with a damp sponge to loosen it and if necessary a scraper suitable for glass surfaces can be used to remove it.
After cleaning rinse thoroughly with clean water. The water must run off the surface easily. Any residual cleaning agents will hinder this effect.
Using oven sprays on very stubborn soiling
Some oven cleaners contain strong alkalines and / or abrasive materials. Because the enamel is designed to be easily cleaned the use of these cleaners is not recommended. However if you still cannot get the surface clean, an oven cleaner can be used for a couple of minutes only. Do not attempt to use on a hot oven or accessories. Allow the PerfectClean surfaces to cool down to room temperature before applying oven sprays!
51
Cleaning and care
Remove the catalytic back panel and roof liner 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. a Vileda sponge), soft nylon brush or a scraper suitable for glass surfaces to loosen the soiling.
Repeat the process if necessary. After cleaning rinse thoroughly with
clean water and then dry thoroughly.
Important
For optimum performance of the PerfectClean enamel it is important to clean the oven and accessories after each use.
The surfaces will become harder to clean and the anti-stick properties will deteriorate if soiling is not removed after each use and allowed to build-up. In extreme cases cleaning may even become impossible.
The following cause lasting damage to the surface structure and reduce the anti-stick effect and must not be used on PerfectClean surfaces:
– abrasive cleaning agents – wire wool or metal scourers – pot scourers – oven cleaning pads – sponges and cloths which have
previously been used with abrasive cleaning agents.
– oven spray must not be used in a
hot oven or left on for too long.
– items coated with PerfectClean
enamelling must not be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Note
Soiling such as spilt juices and cake mixtures are best removed whilst the oven or tray is still warm. Exercise caution, make sure the oven is not hot ­danger of burning!
Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting discolouration of the surfaces and roasting can cause matt areas to appear. Clean these following the instructions given above and do not try and use force to remove them! This discolouration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the enamel.
52
When baking items with a high salt content (e.g. continental pretzels) place them on baking parchment in the baking tray or grill pan. Sodium deposits can cause lasting discolouration to PerfectClean surfaces.
Catalytic enamel surfaces
The back panel and the 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. The higher the temperature, the more effective the process.
The catalytic coating becomes ineffective through using – abrasive cleaning agents, – hard brushes or abrasive
sponges, – oven sprays. Remove the catalytic coated panels 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:
Cleaning and care
Select Fan plus Y.
^
Set the highest temperature setting.
^
Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. The length of time will depend on the level of soiling.
On models with a clock/timer, you can set this procedure to finish automatically; see the appropriate section.
Any remaining soiling will gradually disappear with each subsequent use of the oven at high temperatures.
If the catalytic coated panels are 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.
Should the catalytic coating on the back panel or the roof liner become ineffective through improper use or heavy soiling, a replacement can be obtained from your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare Parts dept.
^
Take all accessories out of the oven.
^
Wipe large deposits of soiling from the oven interior and the inside of the door before starting the cleaning process to avoid them baking onto PerfectClean surfaces and becoming impossible to remove.
53
Cleaning and care
Oven interior
To make cleaning easier you can
remove the oven door,
dismantle the oven door,
take out the runners,
and take out the back panel and roof
liner.
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.
The oven door is connected to the oven by hinges.
Open the door fully.
^
To release the locking clamps on the
^
hinges turn them upwards as far as they will go until they are at an angle. See illustration.
Do not attempt to take the door off the hinge guides when it is in a horizontal position. The guides will close, and damage the appliance. Danger of injury.
^ Then lift the door upwards as far as it
will go.
Before removing the door, the locking clamps on both hinges have to be released.
54
^ Hold the door securely at both sides
and lift upwards off the hinge guides.
Do not lift the door off by the handle. The handle could break and damage the glass.
Make sure that you lift the door off equally on both sides.
Cleaning and care
To dismantle the oven door
The oven door has seals on all sides to protect it from moisture ingress.
If, however, condensate has worked its way in between the glass panes, the door can be dismantled in order to clean in between the panes.
Do not use scouring agents, hard sponges or brushes or sharp metal tools to clean glass as these can scratch the surface.
Do not use an oven spray. This will damage the surface of the aluminium surrounds.
Ensure that the glass panes are inserted the correct way round after cleaning as each side of the pane has a different coating. Those facing the oven interior have a heat-reflective coating.
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).
55
Cleaning and care
Always remove the oven door before dismantling it.
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.
Gently lift the inner pane up and out.
^
^
Unscrew the Torx screws, and remove the guides, trim and seal.
56
^
Pull the pane forwards to remove it.
Take care when doing this to prevent loosening the sealing strips which are fixed to the top end of the pane on the right and left near the guides. These sealing strips prevent the pane slipping when it is in its frame.
Clean the glass panes and other
^
parts and then put the oven door back together again.
^ Push the middle pane into the frame
almost to the end. The material (M-) number printed on the pane must be legible in the bottom right hand corner (see illustration). Fit the sealing strip into position, then push the pane in as far as it will go.
Cleaning and care
Fit the side seals for the inner pane in
^
the grooves provided.
^
Insert the inner pane with the printed text facing downwards. Be careful that the side seals do not slip and that the pane is pushed in as far as possible.
57
Cleaning and care
^ Fit the trim with the seal in front of the
glass panes.
Make sure that the seal is sitting correctly to prevent any steam penetrating inside the door.
To refit the door
^ Hold the door securely at both sides
and carefully fit it back onto the hinge guides.
^
Put the guides back in position, then tighten the screws in the trim.
58
Make sure that the door goes back on straight.
Cleaning and care
Open the door fully.
^
Flip both locking clamps back up as
^
far as they will go into a horizontal position. Make sure that the notches on the locking clamps hook into the slots on the door as illustrated.
It is essential that the locking clamps lock securely when the door is re-fitted after cleaning. Otherwise the door could work loose from the hinges, resulting in damage to the door.
To remove the runners
Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and cool. Danger of burning.
^ Pull on the fixing knob to release it.
^
Remove the runners.
Reassemble in the reverse order, carefully ensuring all parts are correctly in place.
59
Cleaning and care
To remove the catalytic back panel and roof liner
Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and cool. Danger of burning.
The catalytic panels and liners can be removed for cleaning if necessary.
– Back panel
Remove the runners.
^
^ Loosen the screws in the back panel
and take it out.
– Roof liner
Remove the runners.
^
Unscrew the wing nut.
^
Lower the top heating element carefully. Do not use force to pull it down as this can cause the element to break.
^ Take out the roof liner. Reassemble in the reverse order,
carefully ensuring all parts are correctly in place.
The oven must not be used without the back panel fitted. This could cause considerable injury.
Reassemble in the reverse order, carefully 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 accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
Some minor problems however can be dealt with as follows:
What to do if . . .
Problem solving guide
Cover the floor of the oven with a
^
towel to protect the enamelling just in case the lamp cover is dropped.
. . . the oven does not heat up.
Check whether,
^ the system lock has been activated. ^ the mains fuse has blown. Contact a
qualified electrician or the Miele Service Department.
. . . the heating works, but not the oven lighting.
The halogen lamp needs replacing. To change the lamp:
^
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Switch off and unplug at the socket, or remove the fuse, or switch off at the isolator as appropriate.
^
Remove the runners.
^ Use the lever to release the lamp
cover from its frame.
The glass cover is held in position by two metal brackets which are secured to the reflector.
Do not push the metal brackets to the sides, as this would damage both the brackets and the reflector. It might also make it difficult to push the glass cover back into its frame again.
61
Problem solving guide
Pull the glass cover out of the rear
^
metal brackets.
^ Pull the defective halogen lamp out.
When purchasing a new lamp it is a good idea to take the old one with you to make sure you get the correct re­placement (12 V, 20 W, heat resistant to 300 °C, G4 fitting, Osram, Type 64428).
^ Push the glass cover back into the
metal brackets with the cut out edge towards the rear.
Do not touch the surface directly when changing the lamp as grease particles from your fingers will adhere to the surface and damage the lamp. Please follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
^
Replace it with a new one, making sure it goes into its socket horizontally.
62
^
Push the glass cover into its frame at the front.
^
Replace the runners.
Reassemble in the reverse order, carefully ensuring all parts are correctly in place.
Problem solving guide
. . . no noise is heard when the oven door is opened during operation.
This is not a fault. If the door is opened during operation, the door contact switch causes the oven heating, and the fan if on "Fan" setting, to be switched off.
...a noise can be heard after baking, roasting or grilling.
This is not a fault. The cooling fan continues to run for a while after the oven has been switched off to prevent any humidity building up in the oven, on the control panel or in the oven housing unit. It will switch off sooner if the oven door is opened partially or fully.
. . . cakes and biscuits are not cooked after following the times given in the chart.
Check whether,
^
the correct temperature was set.
^
there has been a change to the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a moister mix which would need longer to cook.
. . . cakes or biscuits are unevenly browned.
There will always be a slight unevenness. Product information sheets give a percentage result for standard browning tests. These refer to results for one tray.
If the item being baked is browning very unevenly, check when baking:
with Fan plus:
whether the temperature was set too
high,
– whether the roasting filter was in
place.
– whether the correct runner height
was used. with Conventional heating: – the colour and composition of the
baking tins being used. Light
coloured, shiny, or thin walled tins
are less suitable. –
whether the correct runner height
was used.
. . . spots like rust appear on catalytic surfaces.
^
The roasting filter had been left in place in front of the fan when cooking with Fan plus or Intensive bake: In this case baking times might be lengthened by 10 to 15 minutes.
When roasting on the rack, the circulating air sometimes picks up spices, which are then deposited on the oven interior walls. Such residues are not removed by catalytic cleaning, they are best removed while fresh with a mild washing up liquid solution and a soft brush.
63
Problem solving guide
...a fault message appears in the display
Faults which you can rectify yourself,
are indicated by the following message "Please read notes in the operating instruction booklet".
Fault 54
The roast probe is defective. Remove the probe from its socket and the message will disappear.
Fault 55
The oven has automatically switched itself off during use. This is a safety feature to protect the oven if it has been operating for an exceedingly long period. The length of time depends on the oven function selected. The oven can be used again immedi­ately by simply turning the oven off and on again.
Faults which you cannot rectify yourself, are indicated by the following
message "Please call the Service Department.".

Extra accessories
The following accessories are available at extra cost from your Dealer or the Miele Spare Parts dept.
Telescopic baking carriage
The telescopic baking carriage with 4 levels of runners can be drawn right out of the oven. This gives a good overview of all the cooking in progress.
Telescopic runners
Anti-splash tray
The anti-splash tray should be placed in 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.
Handle
The telescopic runners provide three shelf levels. Each shelf level can be drawn right out of the oven individually to give a good overview of cooking in progress.
66
The handle makes it easier to take the baking tray, grill pan and rack out of the oven, or to put them into it. The two prongs at the top go inside the pan, rack or tray and the U-shaped supports underneath.
Extra accessories
Pizza pan
This circular pan is suitable for cooking pizzas, flat cakes made with yeast or whisked mixtures, sweet and savoury tarts, baked desserts, and can also be used for deep frozen cakes and pizzas.
Baking stone
The baking stone is ideal for items which need a well baked base such as pizza, quiche, bread, bread rolls and savoury snacks.
The baking stone is made from heat retaining fire brick and is glazed. Place it directly on the rack.
A paddle made of untreated wood is supplied with it for placing food on the baking stone and taking it off.
Gourmet oven dish
The gourmet oven dish can be placed in the oven directly on the runners. It has non-tip safety notches like the oven tray to prevent it being pulled out too far. It has a special protective anti-stick coating.
It is available in two sizes: HUB 61-22:
