9
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
~
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service technician.
A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check it for any visible
~
damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of this oven can only be assured if it
~
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
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.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure
~
that the rating on the data plate (voltage and frequency) corresponds to that of the household supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any 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.
This oven must not be installed and operated in mobile
~
installations (e.g. on a ship).
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Tampering with electrical connections or components and
~
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. Do not open the outer casing of the appliance.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
~
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele
~
spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the oven is delivered without a connection cable, or if the
~
connection cable supplied is damaged, a special connection cable must installed by a Miele approved service technician (see "Electrical connection").
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
~
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply, e.g. if the oven lighting is faulty (see "Problem solving guide"). It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
– it is switched off at the mains circuit breaker, or
it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from the socket. Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains plug to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity supply.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
For the oven to function correctly, it requires a sufficient intake of
~
cool air. Ensure the intake of cool air to the oven is not impaired (e.g. due to the installation of insulation material inside the housing unit). Furthermore, the incoming cool air must not be excessively heated by other heat sources (e.g. fuel furnaces).
If the oven is installed behind a furniture door, do not close the
~
door while the oven is in operation. Heat and moisture would build up behind a closed furniture door, potentially causing damage to the oven, the furniture unit and the flooring. Wait until the oven has cooled down completely before closing the furniture door.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Danger of burning!
,
The oven becomes hot when in use. Exercise care when handling food and trays so as not to burn yourself on heating elements, the walls of the oven, shelf runners, trays and hot food itself. Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.
Do not use the oven to heat up the room.
~
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the appliance could catch fire.
Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or
~
fats as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat. Do not attempt to extinguish oil or fat fires with water. Switch off the oven and smother the flames by keeping the oven door closed.
Make sure that you keep to the recommended grilling times when
~
using grilling functions. Excessively long grilling times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even cause the food to catch fire.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high
~
grilling temperatures. Do not use grilling functions for crisping rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use Fan Plus U or Conventional Heat V.
If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high
~
temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and even to ignite on the hot heating elements.
When residual heat is used to keep food warm, the high level of
~
humidity and condensation can cause corrosion in the oven. The control panel, worktop or furniture unit may also be damaged. Do not switch the oven off completely while food is inside it, but select the lowest possible temperature for the oven function you are using. This will ensure the fan will automatically continue to run.
Cover any food which is left in the oven to be kept hot, as
~
moisture in the food could lead to corrosion damage in the oven. This also prevents the food from drying out.
Never cover the floor of the oven with aluminium foil, or place
~
oven dishes, pans, saucepans or trays directly onto the floor of the oven. This would cause concentrations of heat which could cause damage to the floor of the oven.
When storing pots or pans in the oven, do not slide them across
~
the floor of the oven as this will damage the enamel coating.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
Never pour cold water onto hot surfaces in a hot oven.
~
The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel in the oven.
During cooking processes using moisture and during the residual
~
moisture evaporation process steam is produced which can cause serious injury by scalding. Do not open the door whilst a burst of steam is being released or during the evaporation process.
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.
Plastic containers, which are not heat-resistant, melt and may
~
ignite at high temperatures and can damage the oven. Use only plastic containers that are indicated by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in ovens.
Do not use the appliance to heat up or bottle food in sealed jars
~
and tins. Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode causing damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and scalding.
Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may
~
trip over it or be injured by it.
The oven door can support a maximum load of 15 kg.
~
Do not lean or sit on an open oven door, or place heavy items on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. This could damage the oven.
15
Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this oven.
~
Pressurised steam could reach the electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Scratches on the door glass can result in the glass breaking.
~
Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp
metal tools to clean the door glass.
The shelf runners can be removed for cleaning purposes (see
~
"Cleaning and care").
Ensure they are correctly fitted after cleaning and never operate the
oven without the shelf runners fitted.
16
Warning and Safety instructions
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
~
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
If you have a Miele HUB 5000-M/HUB 5001-M/HUB 5000-XL oven
~
dish, do not place it on shelf level 1. This would damage the floor of the oven. The very small gap between the bottom of the dish and the oven floor would cause a build-up of heat and could cause the enamel to crack or chip. Do not place Miele oven dishes on the top rail of shelf level 1 as they will not be secured in this position by the anti-tip safety notches on the sides of the dishes. Instead, use shelf level 2 for these oven dishes.
The high temperatures used during pyrolytic cleaning will
~
damage accessories that are not designed for cleaning in the Pyrolytic programme. Please remove these accessories from the oven interior before starting the Pyrolytic cleaning programme. This also applies to non-pyrolytic accessories purchased separately to the oven (see "Cleaning and care").
17
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. Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling. 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. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre.
Ensure that your old appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Overview of functions
Your oven has a range of functions for preparing a wide variety of recipes.
Depending on the function selected, different heating elements are switched on and sometimes combined with the fan (see details in parentheses).
Some functions are selected directly from the control panel. Others only appear after selecting .
The following are selected directly from the control panel:
Fan Plus U
(Ring heat element + fan)
This function is used for baking and roasting on different levels at the same time. A lower temperature can be selected than when using Conventional Heat V, as the fan distributes the heat to the food straight away.
Intensive Bake O
(Ring heat element + fan + bottom heat element)
For baking cakes, tarts, pies, quiches and pizzas that require a crisper base or moist toppings. Intensive Bake is not suitable for baking thin biscuits or for roasting as the juices will become too dark.
Conventional Heat V
(Top heat/grill element + bottom heat element)
For baking and roasting traditional recipes, preparing soufflés and cooking at low temperatures.
If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven temperature 10 °C lower than that recommended. This will not change cooking times.
Full Grill Y
(Top heat/grill element)
48
For grilling and toasting bread, open sandwiches etc. and browning baked dishes.
Overview of functions
Moisture Plus d
(Ring heat element + fan + steam injection system)
For baking and roasting with moisture injection.
* Equates to Fan Plus.
The steam injection system can also be used with other heating systems (see "Moisture Plus").
Fan Grill \
(Top heat/grill element + fan)
For grilling thicker cuts of meat (e.g. roulades, chicken). Lower temperatures can be used than when using the Grill Y function, as the fan distributes the heat to the food straight away.
Automatic programmes c
(depending on programme)
The list of Automatic programmes available will appear in the display
Options which can be selected in Further programmes :
Auto Roast
(Ring heat element + fan)
This is used for roasting. 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 temperature for continued roasting.
Bottom Heat
(Bottom heat element)
Use this function towards the end of cooking to reheat or brown the base of a cake, quiche or pizza.
Defrost
(Ring heat element + fan)
For the gentle defrosting of frozen food.
Gentle Bake
(Ring heat element + fan)
For cooking meat.

Tips on saving energy
Cooking
Remove any accessories from the
^
oven that you do not require for cooking.
Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to
^
do so in the recipe or the cooking chart.
Avoid opening the door during
^
cooking.
In general, if a range of temperatures
^
is given, it is best to select the lower temperature and to check the food after the shortest given time.
Observe cooking durations to avoid
^
energy wastage when cooking food.
Wherever possible set the cooking duration, or use a food probe. Make use of the Automatic programmes if your oven has them.
Fan Plus U can be used for cooking
^
many types of food. Because the fan distributes the heat to food straight away, it allows you to use a lower temperature than you would with Conventional Heat V. It also enables you to cook on several shelf levels at the same time.
^ It is best to use dark baking tins and
containers with a matt finish made from non-reflective materials (enamelled steel, ovenproof glassware, non-stick coated cast aluminium). Shiny materials such as stainless steel or aluminium reflect heat, preventing it reaching the food efficiently. Do not cover the oven floor or the rack with heat-reflective aluminium foil.
^ Fan Grill \ can be used for a wide
variety of food. With Fan Grill you can use lower temperatures than with other grill functions which use the maximum temperature setting.
^ Whenever possible you should cook
several dishes at the same time. Place them next to each other in the oven or on different shelf levels.
^
Dishes which you are unable to prepare at the same time should, if possible, be cooked one after the other in order to make use of existing heat in the oven.
50
Tips on saving energy
Using residual heat
The temperature in cooking
^
programmes using temperatures above 140 °C which take longer than 30 minutes to cook can be turned down to the lowest possible temperature about 5 minutes before the end of cooking in order to make use of residual heat. The cooling fan and, depending on cooking function, the hot air fan will remain on. Do not switch the oven off (see "Safety instructions").
If you have set a duration for a
^
cooking programme, the oven heating elements will switch off automatically shortly before the end of cooking and "Energy saving phase" will appear in the display. The residual heat in the oven is sufficient to complete the cooking process. The cooling fan and, depending on the function, the hot air fan will remain switched on.
Settings
Switch the clock display off if you
^
wish to reduce energy usage (see "Settings").
Set the oven lighting so that it
^
switches off automatically during a programme after 15 seconds. It can be switched on again at any time by touching I.
Energy save mode
The oven will switch itself off
^
automatically to save energy if a programme is not being run and controls have not been operated. The time of day will appear in the display or the display will remain dark (see "Settings").
^
If you wish to run the Pyrolytic cleaning programme, it is best to start it immediately after a cooking programme. The residual heat in the oven will help reduce the amount of energy required to run the programme. To avoid soiling baking on the door, ensure you remove any soiling from it before running the Pyrolytic cleaning programme.

Moisture Plus d
Your oven is equipped with a steam injection system for cooking with moisture. Baking, roasting and cooking with Moisture Plus d guarantees optimised steam and air conduction for excellent cooking and browning results.
After selecting Moisture Plus d, you need to set the temperature and the number of bursts of steam.
You can select:
Automatic burst of steam
This requires enough water for one burst of steam. The burst of steam will be injected into the oven automatically after the heating-up phase.
– 1 burst of steam
2 bursts of steam 3 bursts of steam You need to add the appropriate amount of water for the number of bursts of steam. You have to release the bursts of steam yourself.
Fresh tap water is taken into the steam system via the tube underneath the control panel on the left.
,
Use only fresh tap water when cooking with the Moisture Plus function. Other liquids will cause damage to the oven.
The water is injected as bursts of steam into the oven compartment during the cooking programme. The steam inlets are located at the rear left corner of the roof of the oven.
One burst of steam takes about 5–8 minutes.
The number of bursts of steam and when they are injected will depend on the type of food being cooked:
Yeast mixtures will rise better if
steam is injected at the beginning of the programme.
Bread and rolls also rise better if
exposed to steam at the start. Injecting a burst of steam at the end of the programme will give the bread and rolls a glistening crust.
– When roasting meat with a high fat
content, injecting steam at the beginning of roasting will help render the fat.
Additional moisture is not suitable for mixtures which already contain a lot of moisture, such as choux pastry and meringues, as the addition of steam does not allow them to dry out sufficiently.
Tip: Please refer to the sample recipes.

* will go out in the display after each burst of steam.
^
Continue cooking until the end of the cooking duration.
Time-controlled bursts of steam
The oven will release the steam after the specified amount of time.
63
Moisture Plus d
Evaporating residual moisture
When cooking using the addition of moisture, the water will be equally distributed between the number of bursts of steam and used up as long as the programme is not interrupted.
However, if a programme using the addition of moisture is interrupted before all the bursts of steam have been injected, the water for these unused bursts of steam will remain in the system.
The next time Moisture Plus d or an Automatic programme with moisture is used "Evaporate residual moisture?" will appear in the display with the options "Skip" and "Yes".
It is best to start the evaporation of residual water straight away so that only fresh water is used during a cooking programme.
Starting residual moisture evaporation immediately
Steam can cause scalding injuries. Do not open the door during the evaporation process.
Select the Moisture Plus d function
^
or an Automatic programme that uses moisture.
"Evaporate residual moisture?" will appear in the display with the option "Yes" highlighted.
Touch the OK sensor.
^
"Evaporate residual water" and a time will appear in the display.
The evaporation process will begin. The duration will count down in the display.
The duration displayed depends on the amount of water in the system. During the evaporation process, this duration may change depending on how much water is present.
64
Moisture Plus d
At the end of the residual water evaporation process "Process finished" appears in the display.
A cooking process using the Moisture Plus d function or an Automatic programme with moisture can now be carried out.
The moisture will condense on the door and in the oven compartment and needs to be wiped off after the oven has cooled down.
Skipping residual moisture evaporation
Do not skip or cancel residual
,
moisture evaporation while running unless you have to, as this could, in certain circumstances, cause the steam unit to overflow into the oven interior when taking in more water.
Select the Moisture Plus d function
^
or an Automatic programme that uses moisture.
"Evaporate residual moisture?" will appear.
^ Scroll through the list until "Skip" is
highlighted.

Notes on using these programmes
When using the Automatic
programmes, the recipes provided are designed as a guide only. You can use them for other similar recipes, including those using different quantities.
The oven interior needs to be at
room temperature before starting an Automatic programme.
The duration quoted for Automatic
programmes is an estimate. It may increase or decrease depending on the programme. The duration, in particular with meat, will vary depending on the initial temperature of the food.
– Some programmes require the
addition of liquid during cooking. You will be prompted by a message in the display when this needs to be done (e.g. "Add liquid at ...").

Baking
Eating food which has been cooked correctly is important for preventing food poisoning or other ailments. Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them.
Oven functions
Depending on how the food is prepared, you can use Fan Plus U, Intensive Bake O, Moisture Plus d or Conventional Heat V.
Bakeware
The choice of bakeware depends on the oven function and how the food is prepared.
– Fan Plus U, Intensive
Bake O,Moisture Plus d: Baking tray, universal tray, bakeware made from ovenproof material.
– Conventional Heat V:
Dark baking tins with a matt finish. Avoid using bright, shiny metal tins as they give an uneven and poor browning result and in some cases cakes might not cook properly.
Always place baking tins on the rack.
Position rectangular tins with the longer side across the width of the rack for optimum heat distribution and even baking results.
When baking cakes with fresh fruit
toppings and deep sponge cakes, place the tin on the universal tray to catch any spillages and keep the oven cleaner.
Baking paper, greasing
Miele accessories, e.g. the universal tray, are treated with PerfectClean enamel (see "Features").
Surfaces treated with PerfectClean enamel generally do not need to be greased or covered with baking paper.
Baking paper is only needed with
– anything with a high salt content
(e.g. pretzels, bread sticks), because salt can damage the PerfectClean surface;
meringues or sponges with a high egg-white content, because they are more likely to stick;
frozen food cooked on the rack.
74
Baking
Notes on the baking chart
Temperature 6
As a general rule, select the lower temperature given in the chart.
Baking at temperatures higher than those recommended may reduce the cooking time, but will lead to uneven browning, and unsatisfactory cooking results.
Baking time +
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 levels
The shelf level on which you place your food for baking depends on the oven function and number of trays being used.
Fan Plus U
1 tray: Shelf level 2 2 trays: Shelf levels 1+3 / 2+4 3 trays: Shelf levels 1+3+5
The universal tray should be placed underneath the baking tray if you are using a universal tray and a baking tray on several levels at the same time.
Bake moist biscuits and cakes on a maximum of two levels at the same time.
– Moisture Plus d
1 tray: Shelf level 2
– Intensive Bake O
1 tray: Shelf level 1 or 2
– Conventional Heat V
1 tray: Shelf level 1 or 2

Roasting
Oven functions
Depending on how the food is being cooked, you can use Fan Plus U, Moisture Plus d, Auto Roast [, Conventional Heat V or an Automatic programme.
Roasting dishes
You can use any heat-resistant crockery:
Miele Gourmet oven dishes, roasting pans, ovenproof glass trays, roasting bags, dishes made from earthenware or cast iron, the universal tray, rack and/or grilling and roasting insert (if available) on top of the universal tray.
We recommend roasting in covered oven dishes as this ensures that sufficient stock remains for making gravy. The oven also stays cleaner than with open roasting.
Notes on the roasting chart
Temperature 6
As a general rule, select the lower temperature given in the chart. If higher temperatures are used, the meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through.
When cooking with Fan Plus U, Moisture Plus d or Auto Roast [, select a temperature approx. 20 °C lower than for Conventional Heat V.
Select a temperature of approx. 10 °C lower than quoted in the roasting chart for meat weighing more than 3 kg. The roasting process will take longer, but the meat will cook evenly through and the skin or crackling will not be too thick.
When roasting on the rack, set a temperature approx. 10 °C lower than if using an oven dish.
80
Pre-heating
Pre-heating is only required when roasting beef sirloin joints and fillets.
Roasting
Roasting duration +
The roasting time can be determined by multiplying the thickness of the roast [cm] with the time per cm [min./cm] stated below, depending on the type of meat:
Beef/Venison: .........15–18 min./cm
Pork/Veal/Lamb:.......12–15 min./cm
Sirloin joints/Fillets:......8–10 min./cm
Check if the meat is cooked after the shortest time quoted.
Shelf levels
As a general rule, use shelf level 2.
Useful tips
Browning
Browning only occurs towards the end of the roasting time. If cooking with a roasting dish, 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 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time with slightly salted water.

Low temperature cooking
This type of cooking is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when a 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.
Then place the meat in the pre-heated oven where the low temperature and long cooking time will cook it to perfection and ensure it is very tender.
The meat relaxes and the juices inside start to circulate evenly throughout the meat to reach the outer layers. This has very tender and succulent results.
Useful tips
– Use lean meat which has been
correctly hung and trimmed. Bones should be removed before cooking.
– For searing, use a suitable cooking
oil or fat that can withstand high temperatures (e.g. clarified butter).
Do not cover meat during cooking.
The cooking duration is approx. 2–4 hours and depends on the weight and size of the meat, as well as the desired degree of doneness and browning.
Low temperature cooking procedure
Use the universal tray with the rack placed on top of it.
Do not use the Rapid Heat-up function to pre-heat the oven.
Place the rack together with the
^
universal tray on shelf level 2.
Select Conventional Heat V and a
^
temperature of 130 °C.
To switch "Rapid Heat-up" off, touch
^
the illuminated R sensor.
^ Pre-heat the oven together with the
universal tray and rack for approx. 15 minutes.
^ While the oven is pre-heating, sear
the meat on all sides on the cooktop.
,
Danger of burning! Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.
^
Place the seared meat on the rack.

Low temperature cooking
Touch X.

temperature to 100 °C.
Continue cooking until the end of the
^
cooking duration.
You can set the cooking process to finish automatically (see "Using the oven - further functions - Setting a cooking duration").
After cooking
Because the cooking and core temperatures are very low:
– Meat can be carved straight from the
oven. It does not need to rest.
– The cooking result won't be affected
if the meat is left in the oven after the finish of the programme. It can be kept warm until you serve it.
– The meat is an ideal temperature to
eat straight away. Serve on pre-heated plates with very hot sauce or gravy to prevent it cooling down too quickly.

Grilling
Danger of burning!
,
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.
Oven functions
Grilling dishes
Full Grill Y
For grilling and toasting bread, open sandwiches etc. and browning baked dishes.
The whole of the top heat/grill element will get hot and glow red.
Fan Grill \
For grilling thicker items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry pieces.
The top heat/grill element and fan are switched on alternately.
Use the universal tray with the rack or grilling and roasting insert (if available) on top. The juices from the food being cooked collect under the insert. This prevents them from spitting and making the oven dirty. The juices can then be used for making gravy and sauces.
Do not use the baking tray.
86
Grilling
Notes on the grilling chart
Temperature 6
As a general rule, select the lower temperature given in the chart. If higher temperatures are used, the meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through.
For thin items, a maximum temperature setting of 200 °C is generally recommended, for thicker items, a maximum of 180 °C.
Pre-heating
Always pre-heat the top heat/grill element for approx. 5 minutes with the door closed.
Shelf levels
Select the shelf level according to the thickness of the food.
– Thin items: Shelf level 3/4
Thicker items: Shelf level 1/2
Testing to see if cooked
One way of finding out how far through a piece of meat has been cooked is to press down on it with a spoon:
Rare: If there is very little
resistance to the pressure of the spoon, it will still be red on the inside.
Medium: If there is some resistance,
the inside will be pink
Well-done: If there is great resistance,
it is cooked through.
Check if the meat is cooked after the shortest time quoted.
Tip
If the surface of thicker cuts of meat is cooked but the centre is still raw, continue grilling at a lower temperature setting or use a lower shelf level to allow the food to cook through to the centre.
Grilling duration +
Turn the food halfway through grilling.
87
Grilling
Preparing food for grilling
Rinse meat under cold running water and then 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.

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.

Further applications
Frozen food / Ready meals
Useful tips
Cakes, pizza, baguettes
Large frozen items such as cakes,
pizzas or baguettes cover an extensive area of the baking tray or universal tray. The temperature difference if large frozen items are cooked in these trays can cause the tray to distort in such a way that it cannot be removed from the oven when it is hot. Further use will make the distortion worse. Place this type of food on baking paper on the rack to prevent the risk of this happening.
– Use the lowest temperature
recommended on the manufacturer's packaging.
Oven chips, croquettes or similar items
– Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips can be cooked on the baking tray or universal tray. Place baking paper on the tray so that they cook gently.

Cleaning and care
Danger of burning! Make sure
,
the oven heating elements are switched off and that the oven cavity is cool.
Danger of injury! Do not use a
,
steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
All external surfaces are susceptible to discolouration or change in appearance if unsuitable cleaning agents are used. Oven cleaners and descaling agents will damage the front of the oven, in particular. Cleaning agent residues must be removed immediately after use.
All surfaces are also susceptible to scratching. Scratches on glass surfaces could even cause a breakage in certain circumstances.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your appliance, do not use:
cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides,
cleaning agents containing
descaling agents on the oven front,
abrasive cleaning agents,
e.g. powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
solvent-based cleaning agents,
stainless steel cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– glass cleaning agents,
– cleaning agents for ceramic
cooktops,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents,
dirt erasers,
sharp metal tools,
steel, wool or metal scourers
98
spot cleaning,
oven cleaner*,
stainless steel spiral pads*.
* These can, however, be used to
remove very heavy soiling from PerfectClean treated surfaces in a spot treatment.
Remove any soiling immediately after use. If not, it might become impossible to remove. Continued use without regular cleaning will make the oven much harder to clean.
The accessories are not dishwasher-proof.
Useful tips
– Soiling caused by spilt juices and
cake mixtures is best removed whilst the oven is still warm. Exercise caution and make sure the oven is not too hot - danger of burning.
– To make cleaning easier, you can
dismantle the oven door, remove the shelf runners and the FlexiClip telescopic runners (if present), and lower the top heat/grill element.
Cleaning and care
Normal soiling
There is a fibreglass seal around the oven interior which seals the inside of the door. It is sensitive to abrasion and rubbing. To prevent the risk of damaging it, do not clean it.
It is best to remove normal soiling im
^
mediately using a clean sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid or with a clean, damp microfibre cloth.
^ After cleaning, make sure all residual
cleaning agents are thoroughly removed with clean water. This is particularly important when cleaning surfaces treated with PerfectClean enamel as cleaning agent residues can impair the non-stick properties.
^ After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
-
99
Cleaning and care
Stubborn soiling (does not apply to the FlexiClip telescopic runners)
Non-Miele oven spray must only be used in a cold oven and for no longer than a maximum of 10 minutes.
Spilt fruit and roasting juices may cause lasting discolouration or matt patches on enamelled surfaces. This discolouration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the finish. Do not use force to remove this discolouration! Clean these following the instructions given here.
Baked on deposits can be removed
^
with a glass scraper or a non-abrasive stainless steel spiral pad.
^ Very stubborn soiling on
PerfectClean treated enamel can be cleaned using the Original Miele oven cleaner. It must be applied to cold surfaces in accordance with instructions on the packaging.
If necessary, the scouring pad on the
^
back of a non-scratching washing-up sponge can be used to remove the soiling.
After cleaning, remove all oven
^
cleaning agent residues thoroughly with clean water, and dry with a soft cloth.
