Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

This appliance is not a toy! To prevent the risk of injury or damage, do not let children play with the appliance or its controls.

Older children may only use the oven when its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.

Great care should be taken to ensure that children do not touch the appliance when it is being used. Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of adults. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, control panel and the vent become quite hot.

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

Warning and Safety instructions

Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply.

This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. 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 guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise the guarantee 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:

–the mains fuse is disconnected,

–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.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to avoid a hazard.

This appliance may only be used in mobile installations such as ships if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

In countries where there are areas 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 may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Caution. 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.

Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fats, as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.

Do not exceed the recommended grilling times when using the "Full grill ", "Economy grill " and "Fan grill " functions. Excessively long grilling times can lead to food drying

out and burning, or could even cause it to catch fire.

Do not use the "Full grill ", "Economy grill " or "Fan grill " to finish baking part-cooked rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Fire hazard. Use "Fan plus " or "Conventional heat " 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.

Do not line the floor of the oven with aluminium foil when using "Conventional heat "/"Bottom heat "/ "Intensive bake "/"Rapid heat-up ".

This would cause a build-up 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.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

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.

Never add cold water to food on a hot universal tray or 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.

If using plastic containers for cooking, they must be declared by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in an oven. Other types of plastic containers melt at high temperatures, and could damage the oven.

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.

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 original spare parts and accessories with this appliance. Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

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 should 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.

Disposing 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 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

In addition to operating the various cooking programmes to bake, roast and grill, the controls on ovens with a clock/timer also offer the following:

–a time of day display,

–a minute minder,

–a timer to automatically switch cooking programmes on and off,

–settings that can be customised.

Safety features

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 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.

Vented oven door

The oven door is an open system and one of the door panes has a heat-reflecting coating. During operation, cool air is passed through the oven door to keep the outer pane cool.

If necessary, the oven door can be dismantled for cleaning.

See "Cleaning and care" for more information.

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated with a special PerfectClean finish:

–Oven interior

–Universal tray

–Baking tray (if applicable)

–The anti-splash insert (if applicable).

PerfectClean 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 is coated with dark grey catalytic enamel. Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off this enamel when very high temperatures are used in the oven.

See "Cleaning and care" for more information.

Energy efficiency rating according to EN 50304

This appliance is rated energy efficiency class A in accordance with EN 50304.

Tests were carried out using Fan plus with any FlexiClip telescopic runners removed.

12

Features

Accessories

Depending on model, your appliance will be supplied with some of the following accessories.

These and other accessories are also available to order from the Miele Spare Parts Department, your Dealer or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com.

Baking tray, universal tray and rack with non-tip notches

(depending on model)

Baking tray:

The short sides of the trays and rack have a safety notch in the middle. This notch prevents the tray or rack from sliding completely out of the oven when it is partially pulled out.

To remove the trays or rack, they need to be lifted out.

Always place the rack in the oven with the slats facing downwards, as illustrated.

If you are using a tray with the rack on top, insert the tray between the rails of a shelf runner and the rack will sit on top of it.

Universal tray:

Rack:

The baking tray, universal tray and rack are inserted into the oven between the two rails of a shelf runner.

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 insert. This prevents them from spitting and making the oven dirty. The juices can then be used for making gravy and sauces.

13

Features

Handle

(depending on model)

The handle makes it easier to take the universal tray, baking tray and rack out of the oven, or to put them into it. The two prongs at the top go inside the tray or above the rack, and the U-shaped supports underneath.

Top heat/grill element (under the roof of the oven)

Bottom heating element (under the floor of the oven)

Ring heating element (behind the intake vent for the fan)

Fan (behind the intake vent for the fan)

These elements and components are combined in various ways, depending on the oven function selected. See the letters given in brackets for each function.
