persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised whilst using it or have been given instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their safety.

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.

Warning

To avoid burns, young children should be kept away.

Warning and Safety instructions

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).

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 warranty will be invalidated.

Warning and Safety instructions

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, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

In 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 warranty.

Correct use

Caution. Danger of burning. High temperatures are produced by the oven and the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside 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 "Grill Y", "Economy Grill Z" 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 "Grill Y", "Economy

Grill Z" or "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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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 V"/"Bottom Heat X"/"Intensive Bake O"/"Rapid Heat-up S". 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Only use genuine Miele spare parts

and accessories with this appliance. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, this will invalidate the warranty, and Miele cannot accept liability.

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 or machine

Electrical and electronic appliances / machines 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 or machine. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old machine or appliance 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. The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind the appliance or the machine to prevent misuse.

Safety features

System lock

The system lock 0 prevents the oven from being used unintentionally by children, for example. See "System lock".

Safety switch-off

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 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.

Vented oven door

The oven door is an open system and the door panes have 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.

Features

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated with PerfectClean enamelling:

Oven interior,

–

Runners,

–

Baking tray,

–

Universal tray,

–

Anti-splash insert and

–

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 surface

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.

See "Cleaning and care" for more information.

Energy-saving features

Rapid heat-up function

To minimise the time it takes to heat up the oven interior, you can utilise the Rapid heat-up function.

However, pre-heating the oven is only required for select applications. Please refer to cooking instructions or separate User instructions (if available).

Time of day display

The time of day display can be switched off to save energy. When the oven is switched off, the display will not light up. The time of day will, however, continue to run unseen in the background (see "Settings %"). It will reappear in the display when the oven is next used.

Moisture Plus d

This function injects moisture during the cooking programme, giving excellent results when cooking various types of food, such as bread or meat.

See the separate "User instructions" booklet supplied in addition to the Operating and installation instructions for information on the Moisture Plus function and descaling the oven.

Features

Accessories

The following accessories are supplied with this oven.

These and other accessories are also available to order from Miele, your Chartered Agent or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com (depending on country).

Baking tray, universal tray and rack with anti-tip safety notches

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

Anti-splash insert

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.

Descaling tablets, plastic tube with clip

The trays and rack have non-tip safety notches in the middle which prevent them being pulled right out when they only need to be partially pulled out. The trays and rack can then only be taken out of the oven by raising them upwards and then pulling them out.

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.

These are required for descaling the appliance.

Before using for the first time

Cleaning and heating up for the first time

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

oven.

– any protective foil from the

oven front.

See "Cleaning and care" for more information.

Before using the oven for the first time

take all accessories out of the oven

–

and wash them by hand.

– then heat the oven up once with

nothing in it. New ovens can give off a slight smell on first use. Doing this will dissipate the smells before you use it to cook food.

^ Before heating the oven up, it is a

good idea to wipe the interior out with a damp cloth. This way any dust or bits of packaging that may have accumulated in the oven cavity during storage and unpacking will be removed.

The oven will start heating up as soon as this entry has been accepted.

Heat the empty oven for at least an

hour.

Please ensure the room is well ventilated during this operation. Close doors to other rooms to prevent the smell spreading throughout the house.

The timer can also be used to set the finish time. See "Entering a cooking duration".

^ Leave the appliance to cool down to

room temperature.

^ Then wipe the oven interior out with a

solution of hot water and a mild detergent and then dry it thoroughly with a soft clean cloth.

Leave the oven door open until the oven interior is completely dry.

Press in the function selector and the temperature selector to release them.

Use the function selector to select "Fan Plus U".

The default temperature of 160 °C will appear.

for baking cakes and biscuits with a

–

short baking time (up to approx. 30 minutes)

– baking pastry and cheesecake/flan

bases, – for baking dark bread – for roasting beef/fillet or meats

weighing 1 kg or less

With Fan Grill U

(see Fan Grilling Guide)

With Grill Y/ Economy Grill Z

(see Grilling Guide)

Do not use Rapid Heat-up S to pre-heat the oven when baking pizzas or biscuits and small cakes. They will brown too quickly.

To pre-heat the oven:

Select Rapid Heat-up S and set a temperature.

When the temperature indicator light  goes out for the first time, set the oven function you require for continued cooking or baking, and place the food in the oven.

Operation

Switching on and off automatically

You can programme the oven to switch off automatically or on and off automatically.

For Automatic switch-off, you need to enter the duration or the duration and a finish time.

The maximum duration which can be set is 12 hours.

We recommend using automatic switching on and off when roasting. However, do not delay the start for too long when baking as the cake mixture or dough will dry out, and the raising agents will lose their effectiveness.

Please note that when using the "Moisture Plus d" function, it is only worthwhile programming the oven to switch on and off automatically if you have selected "Automatic burst of steam aut§".

Entering a cooking duration

To use the Automatic switch-off function on the oven, the cooking duration must be entered.

Place the food in the oven.

Select the required function and set

the temperature.

The oven heating, lighting and cooling fan will switch on.

Baking tips

Refer to the baking charts for suggestions of temperatures, shelf levels and cooking durations. These take into account a range of different baking tins, quantities and cooking traditions.

Handling and preparing food correctly is essential for maintaining good health.

Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc. until they are golden. Do not overcook them.

Bakeware

Please take into account the material of your bakeware in your choice of oven function:

Fan Plus U, Intensive Bake O

Any heat-resistant material can be used.

Baking paper

Because of their PerfectClean anti-stick surface, the baking tray and the universal tray do not need to be greased or lined with baking paper 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.

Universal tray

When baking cakes with fresh fruit toppings and deep sponge cakes,

place the tin in the universal tray to catch any spillages and keep the oven cleaner.

Conventional V

Dark metal, enamel or aluminium baking tins with a matt finish, as well as heat-resistant glass and ceramic dishes can be used.

Bright, shiny metal tins result in uneven or poor browning and in some cases cakes might not cook properly.

Retangular tins

Place cakes in retangular tins with the longer side across the width of the oven for optimum heat distribution and even results.

Baking tips

Notes about the charts

Temperature, baking duration

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. 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.

Shelf level

The shelf levels are counted from the bottom of the oven upwards (1 = lowest, 5 = highest).

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.

Frozen food

When baking frozen products such as cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Bake on a layer of baking paper placed on the rack. Cooking large frozen items on the baking tray or 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 paper and select the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Turn several times during cooking.

Please refer to the roasting chart.

The Miele Gourmet oven dish, roasting pans with a lid, ovenproof china or glass, roasting bags, the universal tray, the rack on top of the universal tray, the anti-splash insert in the universal tray.

We recommend roasting in a covered pot as

this ensures that sufficient stock remains for making

–

gravy. the oven stays cleaner, too.

–

Place the roasting pan on the rack into a cold oven. Pre-heating is only required when roasting beef/fillet.

– Do not select a higher temperature than suggested. The

meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through.

– With Fan Plus U, a temperature of 20 °C less than for

Conventional V 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.

Traditionally you allow 15-20 minutes per 500 g, plus an additional 15-20 minutes. The time will vary depending on the shape of the meat and the doneness required. When cooking very large roasts, you may need to reduce the time per 500 g.

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.

Roasting tips

Frozen meat

Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before roasting.

Notes on low temperature cooking

Cooking at low temperatures is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when a particularly tender result is required.

First the meat needs to be seared all over briefly at a high temperature on the cooktop in order to seal it.

By using a low temperature together with a long cooking duration, meat will be cooked to perfection and be very tender. The meat is allowed to relax again. The meat juices inside the joint start to circulate evenly throughout the meat to reach the outer layers.

This leads to very tender and succulent results.

Please note:

– Use lean meat which has been

correctly hung and trimmed. Bones should be removed before cooking.

– For searing, use a suitable cooking

oil that can withstand high temperatures.

–

Do not cover meat during cooking.

–

Cooking takes between 2-4 hours depending on the size and amount of meat and on the degree of doneness and browning required.

–

The meat can be carved immediate ly. It does not need to rest.

Procedure for low temperature cooking

Use a rack and the universal tray.

Place the rack and universal tray on

the second shelf.

Select Conventional V.

Pre-heat the oven including the rack

and the the universal tray at 130 °C for approximately 15 minutes.

Whilst the oven is pre-heating, sear

the meat thoroughly on the cooktop.

Cooking times and core temperatures can be found in the table if you have a manual food probe.

Danger of burning!

The top heating element/grill element is hot.

^ Place the meat on the rack.

^ Insert a food probe, if available, into

the meat.

Reduce the temperature to 100 °C.

Cooking the meat.

It is a good idea to programme the duration of the cooking programme. See "Entering a cooking duration". The

cooking result won't be affected if the meat is left in the oven after the finish of the programme.

–

meat can be kept warm quite safely in the oven until it is served. This will not affect results in any way.

–

The meat is at an ideal temperature to be eaten straight away. Serve on pre-heated plates with very hot sauce or gravy to prevent it cooling down too quickly.

Grilling tips

Grill with the oven door closed.

If you grill with the door open, hot air will escape from the oven instead of being cooled by the cooling fan. The controls will get hot. Danger of burning.

Functions Notes

Grill Y For grilling thin cuts in large quantities and for browning

large baked dishes. The whole grill element will get hot and glow red.

Economy Grill Z For grilling thin cuts in small quantities and for browning

small baked dishes. The inner part of the grill heating element will get hot and

glow red.

Fan Frill \ For grilling thicker items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry pieces.

Do not use the baking tray.

For thin cuts use shelf level 4 or 5 For thicker cuts use shelf level 3 or 4

Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes with the door shut.

– For thin cuts of meat – For grilling thicker items – Do not select a higher temperature than suggested.

The meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through.

– Flat pieces of fish and meat usually take 6–8 minutes

per side. Thicker pieces take a little longer.

– With rolled meat, allow approx. 10 minutes per cm

diameter.

–

Turn food half-way through cooking.

Grilling tips

Preparing food for grilling

Rinse the meat briefly under running cold water, pat dry. Do not season meat with salt before grilling as this draws the juices out.

Add a little oil to lean meat if necessary. Do not use other types of fat as they can burn and cause smoke.

Clean fish in the normal way. To enhance the flavour, 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 will still be red on the inside ("rare").

– If there is some resistance, the inside

will be pink ("medium").

– If there is great resistance, it is

throughly cooked through ("well done").

Assemble the rack or anti-splash insert on the universal tray as illustrated.

Place the food on the rack.

Select the required function and set the temperature.

Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes with the door shut.

Place the food under the grill and shut the door.

Turn food half-way through cooking.

Grilling tips

Fan Grilling guide (Fan Grill \)

Use the Fan Grill function for meat, fish, poultry and vegetables.

–

Always pre-heat for at least 5 minutes before Fan Grilling.

–

It is not necessary to turn food when Fan Grilling.

–

The door must be closed during Fan Grilling.

–

When using red meat, pat the meat dry before Fan Grilling as this encourages a

–

richer colour.

Note: all temperatures are approximations and must be varied according to the

–

thickness and preparation of the meat. The chart below is a suggested guide only. Personal taste and size of serves will vary times and temperatures. We recommend you monitor cooking results for best outcomes.

Grilling tips

Grilling guide (Grill Y / Economy Grill Z)

Use for thick toasts, muffins, cheese on toast, foccacia, bruschetta and bacon.

–

Pre-heat grill for at least 5 minutes on 200 °C - 220 °C.

–

Select the appropriate shelf level for the thickness of the food.

–

Thinner foods can be positioned on shelf 5, while thicker foods should be

–

grilled on shelf 4.

Grill until food is golden brown and crispy.

–

Door must be closed for grilling.

–

Defrost

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. Do not refreeze food once it has thawed.

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 check that food is thoroughly defrosted.

Cooking ready meals

We recommend using Fan Plus U.

Select the required function and set the temperature.

When the temperature indicator light  goes out, place the dish in the

pre-heated oven.

Cook frozen desserts and pizza on baking paper on the rack rather than on the baking tray or the universal tray. Cooking large frozen items on the baking tray or 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 baking tray or the universal tray.

Cleaning and care

Accessories

Baking tray, universal tray, anti-splash insert

The surface has been treated with PerfectClean.

Please refer to the section on "PerfectClean" for information on cleaning and care.

Rack, runners

The surface has been treated with PerfectClean.

Treat in the same way as other surfaces treated with PerfectClean. See "PerfectClean".

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.

Moreover, any soiling can be easily spotted and removed after cooking.

The back panel is coated with 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 shelf runners,

–

remove the catalytic enamelled back

–

panel, lower the top heating/grill element.

–

Instructions for doing this 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.

The enamelled oven interior has been treated with PerfectClean. Please refer to the section on "PerfectClean" for information on cleaning and care.

Due to the bright grey colour of the enamel, the oven interior appears very light and provides an optimal view of the food.

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.

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.

Cleaning and care

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 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,

Do not use a ceramic knife on PerfectClean surfaces as it could cause scratching.

–

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.

Cleaning and care

Remove any residual cleaning agents with clean water as these will also hinder the anti-stick effect.

Normal soiling

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.

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 cleaning agents, – hard brushes or abrasive

sponges, – oven sprays. Remove the catalytic back panel 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 back panel 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 U.

Set the highest temperature setting.

Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. The length of time will depend on the level of soiling.

The timer can also be used to set the finish time. See "Entering a cooking duration".

If the catalytic coated back 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.

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.

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.

Cleaning and care

To remove 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.

Then lift the door upwards as far as it

will go.

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.

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.

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 door.

Make sure that you lift the door off equally on both sides.

To dismantle the oven door

The oven door is made up of three panes of glass and has vents at the top and bottom.

When the oven is operating, air is circulated through the door to keep the outer pane cool.

If condensate has worked its way in between the glass panes, the door can be dismantled in order to clean in between the panes.

When cleaning the glass panes, please follow the same instructions given for cleaning the appliance front.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents, sponges or brushes, as these can scratch and damage the surface. Scratches can also cause the glass to break.

Do not use an oven spray. This will damage the surface of the aluminium surrounds.

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.

^ Flip the glass pane retainers

outwards to open them.

You can now remove the inner and middle panes.

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).

Cleaning and care

Gently lift the inner pane up and out

of the plastic strip.

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. Wipe dry using a soft cloth.

To refit the door:

^ Secure the seal to the middle pane.

Gently lift the middle pane and remove it together with the seal.

Remove the seal from the pane.

Cleaning and care

Refit the middle pane and the seal.

Push the inner pane into the plastic strip and place it between the retainers. "Miele" must be visible at the top.

Flip the glass pane retainers inwards

to close them.

Cleaning and care

To refit the door

^ Hold the door securely at both sides

and carefully fit it back onto the hinge guides.

Open the door fully.

Flip both locking clamps back up as

far as they will go into a horizontal position.

It is essential that the locking clamps are flipped down when the door is refitted after cleaning. Otherwise the hinges could work loose, resulting in damage to the door.

Make sure that the door goes back on straight.

Cleaning and care

To remove the runners

Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and cool. Danger of burning.

^ Pull the runners forwards out of the

holder and remove.

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

To remove the catalytic enamelled back panel

Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and cool. Danger of burning.
