Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance complies with statutory safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, use and maintenance.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage or injury caused by noncompliance with these instructions.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the contents. Pass them on to any future owner.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

This oven is intended for use in domestic households and similar working and residential environments.

The oven is not intended for outdoor use.

It is intended for domestic use only to cook food, and in particular to bake, roast, grill, cook, reheat, defrost and dry food.

Any other use is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

Danger of burning. Do not use the microwave combination oven to store or dry items which could ignite easily.

If such items were dried in the microwave combination oven, the moisture in the item would evaporate causing it to dry out and even self-ignite.

People with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge who are not able to use the appliance safely on their own must be supervised whilst using it. They may only use it unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appliance unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the oven unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance unsupervised.

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the oven and do not let them play with it.

Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

Danger of burning. 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 vents become quite hot during use. Do not let children touch the oven whilst it is in use.

Danger of injury. The door can support a maximum weight of 8 kg. Do not let children sit on the door, lean against it or swing on it. They could injure themselves.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

Never use a damaged oven. It could be dangerous. Check it for visible signs of damage before using it.

Reliable and safe operation of this oven can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

Operating a damaged appliance can result in microwave leakage and present a hazard to the user. Do not use the appliance if:

–the door is warped,

–the door hinges are loose,

–holes or cracks are visible in the casing, the door or the oven interior walls.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

To avoid the risk of damage to the oven, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply before connecting the oven to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician 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 (fire hazard).

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.

The oven must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

Warning and Safety instructions

Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

Never open the casing of the appliance.

While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

If the connection cable is damaged or if the oven is supplied without a cable, it must be replaced or fitted with a special connection cable by a Miele authorised 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” and “Electrical connection”).

In order to function correctly, the oven requires an adequate supply of cool air. Ensure that the supply of cool air is not impaired (e.g. by heat insulation strips in the housing unit). Please also ensure that the cool air supply is not unduly heated by other heat sources such as a solid fuel stove.

If the oven is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), ensure that the door is never closed whilst the oven is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause subsequent damage to the oven, the housing unit and the floor. Do not close the door until the oven has cooled down completely.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Danger of burning.

The oven becomes hot when in use.

Depending on the function being used, you could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven interior, cooked food or oven accessories.

Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven when it is in use could catch fire.

Do not use the oven to heat up the room.

Oil and fat can ignite if overheated. Never leave the oven unattended when cooking with oil and fat. Do not use the oven for deep fat frying.

Never use water to extinguish ignited oil or fat. Switch the oven off immediately and then suffocate the flames by keeping the oven door closed.

Please be aware that durations when using microwave power are often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting than when using functions without microwave power. Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even cause it to catch fire.

Make sure you keep to recommended grilling times when using the grill. Do not use Microwave solo for drying items such as flowers, herbs, bread or rolls. Never use functions with the grill for bake-off products such as bread or bread rolls, or for drying flowers or herbs. Use Fan plus for these procedures and monitor the process carefully.

If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise. The vapour can catch fire on hot heating elements.

Warning and Safety instructions

When using residual heat to keep food in the oven warm, the high humidity and amount of condensation in the oven can cause corrosion in the oven. The control panel, the worktop or the housing unit can also suffer damage.

Always cover food when using Microwave solo function. Once food is cooked through, use a lower power for continued cooking to reduce the amount of steam produced from the food.

When using residual heat do not switch the oven off. Instead set the temperature to the lowest setting and leave the oven on the selected function. The fan will then remain on automatically and dissipate the moisture.

Food which is stored in the oven or left in it to be kept warm can dry out and the moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the oven.

Always cover food that is left in the oven to keep warm.

A build-up of heat can cause damage to the enamel on the floor of the oven.

When using Conventional heat , Bottom heat , Intensive bake or Fan plus do not line the floor of the oven with anything, e.g. aluminium foil or so-called protective liners. Neither should you place roasting pans or glass trays directly on the oven floor.

It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked and that it is hot enough. This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and

observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.

Warning and Safety instructions

When heating food and drinks, remember that the heat is created in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The dish is only warmed by the heat of the food.

Before serving, remember to allow a sufficient standing time and then always check the temperature of the food after taking it out of the steam oven. The temperature of the container is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. This is particularly important when preparing food for babies, children, and the elderly or infirm. Shake or stir baby milk and food thoroughly after heating, and try it for temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby.

The oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting items. Items can get extremely hot and there is a danger of burning when the item is removed from the appliance.

Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. With baby bottles, the screw cap and teat must be removed. Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or container to explode, posing a severe risk of injury.

When heating up liquids, always place a suitable glass rod or utensil into the cup or glass.

When boiling and in particular when heating up liquids using microwave power, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly throughout. This so-called 'boiling delay' can cause a sudden build up of bubbles when the container is removed from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively. The formation of bubbles can be so strong that the pressure forces the oven door open. Stir liquid before it heats up or boils. Once it has heated up wait for a minimum of 20 seconds before removing the container from the microwave oven.

Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.

Warning and Safety instructions

Eggs in their shells will explode if cooked with microwave power, even after taking them out of the oven.

They can only be cooked in their shells using microwave heat in a specially designed egg-boiling device available from specialist shops. Hard-boiled eggs must not be reheated in the microwave oven either as they too will explode.

Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes and aubergines, should be pierced or cut in several places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.

To check food temperature, first interrupt the cooking process. Only use a thermometer specifically approved for food use to measure the temperature of the food. Do not use a thermometer containing mercury or liquid as these are not suitable for use with very high temperatures and break very easily.

Do not use the oven to heat up cushions or pads filled with cherry kernels, wheat grains, lavender or gel, such as those used in aromatherapy.

These pads can ignite when heated even after they have been removed from the oven.

To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the oven door if smoke occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by switching the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Do not open the door until the smoke has dispersed.

Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with microwave power. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode. If the hollow recess is sufficiently ventilated, the item could be used. However, we recommend that you do not use such dishes in Microwave mode.

Warning and Safety instructions

Fire hazard. Using Microwave solo or Microwave combination programmes with plastic dishes which are not microwave safe can cause them to melt and damage the appliance.

Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper covered wire ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims, or plastic pots with the foil lid only partially removed (see “Suitable containers for microwave use”).

For functions without microwave power: plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven can melt at high temperatures and can even damage the oven or catch fire.

Only use containers which are declared by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in an oven. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on use.

Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other inflammable materials.

Before using single-use containers make sure they are suitable for use in microwave ovens. See “Suitable containers for microwave use - Plastics”.

Do not heat food up in the oven in heat-retaining bags which are intended for use in normal ovens.

These heat-retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminium foil which reflects microwaves. This reflected energy can, in turn, cause the outer paper covering to become so hot that it ignites.

The oven can suffer damage when using Microwave solo or Combination programmes if it is empty or incorrectly loaded.

For this reason please do not use functions with microwave power to pre-heat crockery or to dry herbs. Instead use Fan plus or Conventional heat .

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars in the oven, as pressure will build up in the container, causing it to explode.

You could injure yourself on the open oven door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.

The door can support a maximum weight of 8 kg. Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy objects on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged.

Stainless steel appliances

Adhesives will damage the stainless steel surface and cause it to lose its dirt-repellent protective coating. Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape or other types of adhesive on the stainless steel surface.

The surface is susceptible to scratching. Even magnets can cause scratching.

Warning and Safety instructions

Cleaning and care

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach 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.

Try to avoid the interior walls being splashed with food or liquids containing salt. If it does happen, wipe these away thoroughly to avoid corrosion to stainless steel surfaces inside the cabinet.

In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.

Accessories

Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty and Miele cannot accept liability.

Only use the Miele food probe supplied with this oven. If it is faulty, it must only be replaced with a suitable original Miele food probe.

The plastic on the food probe can melt at very high temperatures. Do not use the food probe when using the grill functions (exception: Fan Grill ). Do not store the food probe in the oven if it is not in use.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing

material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should 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.

Disposing of your old

appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

The rack has non-tip safety notches	Food probe
which prevent it being pulled right out
when it only needs to be pulled out
partially.

When pushing the rack back in, always ensure that the safety notches are at the back of the oven.

To remove the rack, lift it upwards slightly at the front when the safety notches connect with the sides of the oven.

We recommend using the rack together with the glass tray when cooking items on the rack which might drip.

Using the food probe enables the temperature during the cooking process to be monitored simply and accurately (see “Roasting - Food probe”).

Safety features

System lock

The system lock prevents the oven from being used unintentionally (see “Settings – Safety”).

The system lock will remain activated even after an interruption to the power supply.

Cooling fan

The 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 a cooking process to prevent moisture building up in the oven, on the control panel or on the oven housing unit. It will switch itself off automatically after a while.

Safety switch-off

A function without microwave can be started without selecting a cooking duration. To prevent over-use and the consequent danger of fire, the oven will switch itself off automatically after a certain length of time. This can be between 1 hour and 12 hours depending on the function and temperature chosen.

If a combination programme is followed in quick succession by another programme using microwave power, the magnetron (which produces the microwaves) cannot be switched on again until approx. 10 seconds have elapsed. Therefore wait a short while before starting the second process.
