Page 8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Children
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where
an oven is in use. Never allow children to operate, sit or stand on
any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to
reach these items could be injured.
Burn Hazard - Do not allow children to use the oven.
As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used
by children.
Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags,
etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children.
Danger of burns. The oven gets hot at the oven door glass, the
vapor vent, the handle and the operating controls. Do not allow
children to touch or play in, on or near the oven.
Technical safety
This appliance must be installed and connected in compliance
with the installation instructions.
Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by
a Miele authorized service technician in accordance with national
and local safety regulations and the provided installation
instructions. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department for
examination, repair or adjustment. Repairs and other work by
unauthorized persons could be dangerous and may void the
warranty.
Before installing the oven, check for externally visible damage. Do
not operate a damaged appliance.
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,
8
Page 9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
– holes or cracks are visible in the housing, the door, the door seal
or the oven interior walls.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity
must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding
system. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly
grounded outlet. See "Electrical connection - GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS". It is imperative that this basic safety requirement
be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house
checked by a qualified electrician.
Before installation, make sure that the voltage and frequency
listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical
supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine
damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the
work area by
– removing the fuse,
– "tripping" the circuit breaker, or
– unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord.
Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Do not use an extension cord
to connect this appliance to electricity.
The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed
within cabinetry.
Danger of electric shock!
Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance.
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
9
Page 10
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original spare
parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the
safety of the appliance.
In order for the oven to function correctly, it requires an adequate
supply of cool air. Ensure that the air flow is not impaired (e.g.
insulation in the cabinetry). Also be sure that the cool air supply is
not heated by other sources nearby.
If the oven is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the oven is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up
behind the closed door and cause damage to the oven, cabinetry
and flooring. Do not close the door until the oven has completely
cooled down.
Proper use
Danger of burns!
The Speed Oven becomes hot when in use.
Depending on the mode selected, you could burn yourself on the
heating elements, oven interior, cooked food or oven accessories.
Wear pot holders when placing food in or removing food, or when
making adjustments in the hot Speed Oven.
Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not
glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause
burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and
the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact
with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
Do not let food sit in the oven more than one hour before or after
cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
10
Page 11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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, and
observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added
to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.
Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let
potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish
towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders
touch hot heating elements.
Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear
proper apparel while operating the appliance.
Do not heat unopened containers of food in the oven, pressure
may cause the containers to burst and result in injury.
To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height
while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is
hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.
Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before
placing or removing food.
To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before
cleaning by hand.
Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may
trip over it or be injured by it.
Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or
fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use the oven for frying.
Do not use water on grease fires. Turn off the Speed Oven
immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the door closed.
Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an
oven, or near cooking surfaces.
11
Page 12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid fueling any flames, do not open the Speed Oven door if
smoke occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by turning
the appliance off and disconnecting it from the power. Do not open
the door until the smoke has dissipated.
Do not use the oven to heat the room. The high temperatures
radiated could cause objects near the oven to catch fire.
Please be aware that durations when using microwave power are
often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting
than when using modes without microwave power. Excessively long
cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even
cause it to catch fire.
Be sure you keep to recommended broiling times when using the
Broil mode. Do not use Microwave for dehydrating items such
as flowers, herbs, bread or rolls. Never use modes with Broil for prebaked products such as bread or bread rolls, or for drying flowers or
herbs. Use Convection Bake for these items and monitor the
process carefully.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances,
combust on the hot heating elements.
Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow
recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode.
Fire hazard! Using Microwave or Microwave combination
modes 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,
aluminum foil, lead, crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive
plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper
covered wire ties. Do not use plastic containers with the foil lid only
partially removed (see "Containers suitable for microwave use").
12
Page 13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For modes 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 "Containers suitable for microwave
use - Plastics").
Do not reheat food 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 aluminum
foil which reflects microwaves.This reflected energy can, in turn,
cause the outer paper covering to become hot and ignite.
The Speed Oven can be damaged when using Microwave or
Microwave Combination modes if it is empty or incorrectly loaded.
For this reason please do not use modes with microwave power to
pre-heat cookware or to dry herbs.
Instead use Convection Bake or Surround for these
procedures.
When using residual heat to keep food in the oven warm, the high
humidity and amount of condensation in the Speed Oven can cause
corrosion. The control panel, the countertop or the cabinetry can
also suffer damage.
Always cover food when using Microwave . 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 turn the Speed Oven off. Instead set the temperature to the
lowest setting and leave the oven on the selected mode. The fan will
then remain on automatically and dissipate the moisture.
13
Page 14
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven
to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the
interior of the oven.
A build-up of heat can cause damage to the coating on the floor
of the oven.
When using Convection Bake do not line the floor of the Speed
Oven with anything, e.g. aluminum foil or oven liners. Universal trays
and glass trays should not be placed directly on the oven floor.
The door can support a maximum weight of 17.5 lbs (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.
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. The temperature of the
container is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid
in it.
Check the food for the desired temperature after removing it. This is
particularly important when preparing food for babies. 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 Speed 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 top and nipple must be
removed.
Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or
container to explode. Risk of injury.
14
Page 15
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The boiling wand ensures that the liquid heats up evenly with
bubbles forming at the right time.
When reheating liquids, always place the boiling wand supplied into
the cup or glass. When boiling and in particular when reheating
liquids, milk, sauces etc, using microwave power without the boiling
wand, 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 "superheating" 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. Danger of scalding and burning! The formation of
bubbles can be so strong that the pressure forces the oven door
open, with a danger of injury and damage. The user could be injured
and the appliance damaged.
Ensure you use only the boiling wand supplied with your appliance.
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.
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.
15
Page 16
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage,
potatoes and eggplant, 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 thermometers
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 heating pads filled with grains, gel,
etc.
These pads can ignite even after they have been removed from the
Speed Oven.
This oven must only be used for cooking food. Fumes, vapors or
heat given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials
could be hazardous. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc.
Do not cover or block any vent openings.
Do not let metal objects (aluminum foil, pans) come in contact
with the heating element.
Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not
come in contact with or get caught in the oven door.
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this oven.
Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
Only clean parts listed in these Operating and Installation
Instructions.
Scratches on the door glass can cause the glass to break.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal
tools to clean the door glass.
16
Page 17
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surfaces of the Speed
Oven, remove any splashes on the interior walls of the oven from
food or liquids containing salt.
Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaners or oven
liners of any kind should not be used in or around any part of the
oven.
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty may
become void.
Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with this oven. If it is
faulty, it must only be replaced with a Miele genuine roast probe.

Features
Glass Tray
The glass tray is suitable for use with all
operating modes.
Always use the glass tray when
using Microwave (Solo) .
Do not place items weighing more
than 17.5 kg (8 kg) on it.
Do not place the hot glass tray on a
cold surface, such as a tiled or
granite countertop. The glass tray
could get damaged. Use a suitable
heat-resistant mat or pot rest.
Wire rack with non-tip safety notches
The rack is designed to be compatible
with microwaves and so can be used
with Combi modes which use
microwave power. However it is not
suitable for use with the Microwave
(Solo) mode.
Danger of burns! The rack gets hot
when used with Combi modes which
use the microwave function.
Use pot holders when placing food
in a hot oven and when taking it out.
Do not place the rack directly on the
floor of the oven and do not use it
with Microwave (Solo) . This
could cause arcing which could
damage the oven.
Do not place items weighing more
than 17.5 lbs (8 kg) on the rack.
The rack has non-tip safety notches
which prevent it being pulled
completely 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.

Features
Boiling wand
The boiling wand helps liquids heat
evenly.
When reheating liquids, place the
boiling wand into the cup or glass.
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.
Roast Probe
Using the roast probe enables you to
accurately monitor the temperature
during the cooking process (see
"Roasting - Roast probe").

Features
Speed Oven controls
The oven controls enable you to use
the various cooking modes to bake,
roast, broil and reheat.
It also allows you to access:
– the time of day display,
– a timer,
– a timer to automatically turn cooking
programs on and off,
– the MasterChef programs,
– the creation of a Favorite program,
– settings that can be customized.
Safety features
System lock
The system lock prevents the oven from
being used unintentionally (see
"Settings - System lock").
The system lock will remain activated
even after a power failure.
Safety cut-out
A mode without Microwave can be
started without specifying a cooking
time. To prevent continuous use and
avoid the risk of fire, the Speed Oven
will turn itself off automatically after a
time between 1 hour and 12 hours
depending on the function and
temperature chosen.
If a Combi mode is followed in quick
succession by another mode using
microwave power, the magnetron
(which produces the microwaves)
cannot be turned on again until approx.
10 seconds have elapsed. Therefore
wait a short time before starting the
second process.

Features
Cooling fan
The cooling fan comes on automatically
when a cooking program 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
surrounding cabinetry. It will turn itself
off automatically after a while.
PerfectClean treated surfaces
The revolutionary PerfectClean enamel
is a smooth, non-stick surface that
cleans easily with a sponge.
Food and soiling from baking and
roasting can be easily removed from
these surfaces.
Do not use ceramic knives as these
will scratch the PerfectClean surface.
Follow the instructions in the "Cleaning
and Care" section of this manual so the
anti-stick and easy cleaning properties
are retained.
The oven compartment and the rack
have a PerfectClean finish.

Microwave power
How it works
The Speed Oven contains a highfrequency tube called a magnetron. It
converts electrical energy into
microwaves. The microwaves are then
distributed evenly throughout the metal
sides of the oven interior to reach the
food from all sides.
In order for microwaves to reach the
food, they must be able to penetrate
the cooking container being used.
Microwaves can penetrate porcelain,
glass, cardboard and plastics, but not
metal. Do not, therefore, use dishes
made of metal, or which contain metal,
for example in the form of gold or silver
trim. The metal reflects the microwaves
and this could cause sparking. The
microwaves cannot be absorbed.
Microwaves pass through a suitable
container and find their way directly into
the food. All food contains moisture
molecules which, when subjected to
microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5
billion times a second. The friction
caused by this vibration creates heat,
which first starts developing around the
outside of the food and then slowly
penetrates towards the center. The
moisture, fat and sugar content of food
will affect the speed at which it is
cooked.
Advantages
– Food can generally be cooked with
little liquid or oil.
– Defrosting, heating and cooking is
faster than using a conventional
oven.
– Nutrients, such as vitamins and
minerals, are generally retained.
– The color, texture and taste of food
are not impaired.
Microwaves stop being produced
when the program is interrupted or the
door is open. While in operation the
closed, sealed foor prevents
microwaves from escaping the
appliance.
Microwave power levels
Microwave power levels 1 to 7 can be
selected.
55
Page 56
Selecting cookware
Microwaves are reflected by metal.
They pass through glass, porcelain,
plastic and cardboard.
Non-microwave safe dishes can
suffer damage or cause damage to
the oven when using the the
Microwave (Solo) and
Combination modes with Microwave.
Risk of Fire!
The material and shape of containers
used affect cooking results and times.
Circular and oval containers work best.
The food will heat more evenly than in a
square container.
Containers suitable for microwave use
Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass
are ideal for use with microwave power.
Exception: Do not use crystal glass
as it contains lead which can crack
or shatter in a microwave.
They are absorbed by food.
56
Porcelain
Porcelain is a suitable material.
Exception: Do not use porcelain with
gold or silver edging or items with
hollow knobs or handles, as
insufficient ventilation may cause a
build-up of pressure.
Earthenware
Decorated earthenware is only suitable
if the decoration is beneath an all-over
glaze.
Danger of burning! Wear pot holders
when removing earthenware dishes
from the Speed Oven.
Page 57
Selecting cookware
Plastics
Plastic containers and plastic
disposable containers may only be
used with Microwave (Solo) if they
have been declared as suitable for
microwave use by the manufacturer. To
protect the environment, it is best to
avoid using single-use containers.
Do not leave the Speed Oven
unattended when reheating or
cooking food in disposable
containers made of plastic, paper or
other flammable materials.
Plastic cookware must be heatresistance up to at least 230°F
(110°C). Otherwise the cookware will
deform and the possibly come in
contact with the food.
Only use plastic dishes in the
Microwave and combination
modes.
– Plastic microwave containers
There are also cooking bags that do not
need to be pierced. Following the
instructions listed on the packaging.
– Roasting bags
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Fire hazard!
Do not use metal clips, plastic clips
containing metal parts, or paper ties
containing wire. There is a danger
that they will ignite when heated.
– Melamine
Plastic tableware made from melamine
is not suitable for use in this oven.
Melamine absorbs microwave energy
and becomes very hot. Before
purchasing plasticware be sure that is
is microwave-safe.
Readily available from retail stores.
– Styrofoam containers
Disposable containers, such as trays
made from styrofoam, can only be used
for very short, timed warming and
reheating of food.
– Plastic cooking bags
Plastic cooking bags can be used for
cooking and reheating food.
They should be pierced beforehand so
that steam can escape. This prevents a
build-up of steam and reduces the rish
of the bag bursting.
57
Page 58
Selecting cookware
Unsuitable containers for microwave use
Dishes with hollow knobs or
handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which
has gathered in the hollow recesses
can cause pressure to build up and
the item can explode.
Metal
Metal reflects microwaves and
obstructs the cooking process.
Do not use metal containers, aluminum,
foil, metal cutlery and china with
metallic decoration such as gold rims or
cobalt blue with Microwave
combination modes.
Do not use containers where the foil
lid has not been completely removed
as small pieces of foil can cause
sparking.
Exceptions:
The rack supplied with the Speed
Oven is suitable for cooking with
Microwave and Combination modes.
Do not place the rack on the floor of
the oven.
– Metal bakeware can be used with
Microwave combination modes.
– Ready-meals in aluminum foil trays
can be defrosted and reheated using
microwave power as long as the lid is
removed.
When using foil trays there is a risk
of arcing or sparks occurring in the
oven. For this reason, place the foil
tray on the glass tray and not on the
rack.
The foil tray must be at least 3/4"
(2 cm) away from the oven walls. It
must not touch them.
58
However, as food is only heated from
the top, it is better to remove the food
from the aluminum foil container and
transfer it to a dish suitable for use in
a microwave oven. The heat
distribution will be more even.
Page 59
Selecting cookware
– Aluminum foil pieces
For even defrosting and to avoid
overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of
meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of
aluminum foil may be used to mask thin
pieces for the last few minutes of the
program.
Make sure that the aluminum foil is
at least 3/4" (2 cm) from the oven
walls at all times. It must not touch
the walls.
– Metal meat skewers or clamps
These should only be used if they are
very small in comparison to the size of
the cut of meat.
Glazes and colors
Some glazes and colors contain metal
and are therefore unsuitable for
microwave modes.
Wood
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
Moisture contained in the wood
evaporates when exposed to
microwave energy, causing the wood to
dry and crack.
Testing dishes for their suitability
If in doubt as to whether glass,
earthenware or porcelain plates or
dishes are suitable for use with
microwave energy, a simple test can be
performed:
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1
and place the empty item you wish to
test on the glass tray. Fill a suitable
glass with water and also place this
on the glass tray.
Close the door.
Select Microwave .
Set the highest microwave power
level (7) and a cooking duration of
30 seconds.
Confirm with OK and start the
program.
If a cracking noise is heard
accompanied by sparks during the
test, turn the appliance off
immediately. Any cookware which
causes this reaction is unsuitable for
use with microwave power. If in
doubt, contact the cookware
manufacturer.
This test cannot be used to check
whether items with hollow knobs or
handles are suitable for use with
microwave power.
59
Page 60
Selecting cookware
Placing the dish in the Speed Oven
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1.
The dish containing the food should
always be placed in the middle of the
glass tray.
Placing the food directly on the floor
of the oven would give unsatisfactory
and uneven results as the microwaves
would not be able to reach the food
from below.
Lid
The lid offers the following advantages:
– Prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
– Speeds up the cooking process.
– Prevents food from drying out.
– Helps keep the oven interior clean.
60
When using Microwave (Solo) ,
always cover the food with a lid or
cover made of microwave safe glass
or plastic.
These covers are available at retail
stores.
Alternatively, use plastic wrap
recommended for use in a microwave
oven (pierce as instructed by the
manufacturer). Heat can cause normal
plastic wrap to distort and fuse with
the food.
Page 61
Selecting cookware
The cover can only withstand
temperatures up to 230°F (110°C).
Higher temperatures (e.g. those used
for Broil and Convection Bake) can
cause the plastic to distort and fuse
with the food. The cover should only
be used with Microwave (Solo) .
The cover should not form a seal
with the container. If the cover is
used with a container which only has
a narrow diameter, there might not
be enough room for condensation to
escape through the holes in the top.
The cover could get too hot and
could start to melt.
Do not use the cover if:
– cooking breaded food,
– cooking food which requires a crisp
finish,
– cooking food with a Combi mode.
Otherwise pressure can build up,
causing the container to explode,
posing a severe risk of injury.
Do not cook or reheat food or liquids
in sealed containers, jars or bottles.
Otherwise pressure will build up
which can cause the bottle or
container to explode. Risk of injury.

Energy saving tips
– Remove any accessories from the
oven that you do not require for
cooking.
– If possible, do not open the door
during a program. If the door is
opened during a program that is not
using microwave power, the heat in
the oven automatically turns off. The
fans continue to run. As soon as the
door is closed again, the program will
continue.
– If a temperature range is given, it is
best to select the lower temperature
and check the food after the shortest
cooking time given.
– Convection Broil can be used for
a wide variety of foods. Lower
temperatures can be used than with
other Broil modes which use the
maximum temperature setting.
– The default setting for the Time of
Day display Time - Display - Off will
consume the least amount of energy.
– With the factory default setting
Lighting - On for 15 seconds the oven
interior lighting turns off automatically
after 15 seconds. It can be turned on
again at any time by touching "Light".
– When cooking with automatic shut-
off or the wireless roast probe, the
oven heating will turn off
automatically shortly before the end
of cooking. The residual heat is
sufficient to finish the cooking
process. Energy Save will appear in
the display. The cooling fan or hot air
fan (depending on mode used) will
remain on.
– The oven turns off automatically if a
button is not pressed to save power.
The amount of time before the oven
turns off depends on the selected
settings, e.g. mode, temperature,
cooking duration, etc.

Notes on using these programs
– The oven interior should be at room
temperature before starting a
MasterChef program.
– Some programs require a preheating
phase before food is placed in the
oven. A prompt will appear to tell you
when to add the food.
– The duration quoted for MasterChef
programs is an estimate. It may
increase or decrease depending on
the program. When using the roast
probe, the duration will be
determined by when the core
temperature is reached. The duration,
in particular with meat, will vary
depending on the initial temperature
of the food.

Bake
Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, french fries,
etc. until they are golden brown. Do
not overcook them.
Oven modes
Depending on how you would like the
food prepared, you can use Convection
Bake , Surround , Intensive ,
or Combi Bake (see "Guide to the
modes").
Combi Bake is particularly suitable for
baking doughs with a longer baking
time, because the cooking time is
shortened.
For baking, the microwave power level
must not exceed level 2.
Bakeware
The bakeware used depends on the
oven mode chosen and how the food is
prepared.
– Convection Bake , Intensive :
Bakeware made of any heat-resistant
material is suitable. Light-colored,
thin, non-reflective metal baking
pans can be used, but results may
not be as good as with dark nonreflective bakeware.
– Surround :
Dark metal, enamel or aluminum
baking tins with a matte finish, as
well as heat-resistant glass, ceramic
and coated dishes can be used.
Avoid bright, shiny metal tins as they
result in uneven or poor browning,
and in some cases cakes might not
cook properly.
– Combi Bake
Only use oven-safe dishware suitable
for microwave use (see "Containers
suitable for microwave use"), such as
oven-safe glass or ceramic dishes as
these allow microwaves through
them.
Metal containers reflect microwaves
so food will only cook from above.
Cooking durations would therefore
be longer and metal tins could also
cause sparking. Place the dish on the
glass tray such that it cannot touch
the oven walls. If the dish being used
causes sparking, do not use it for
combination cooking programs
again.
Parchment paper
Place french fries, croquettes and
similar types of food on paper.
85
Page 86
Bake
Temperature
As a general rule, select the lower
temperature given in the chart.
Choosing a baking temperature higher
than those recommended may reduce
the cooking time, but will lead to
uneven browning, and unsatisfactory
cooking results.
Baking duration
Check if the food is cooked at the end
of the shortest duration quoted. To
check if a cake is ready insert a
wooden skewer or toothpick into the
center, it should come out clean.
Shelf levels
The shelf level that you place the food
on for baking depends on the oven
mode and the number of trays being
used.
– Convection Bake
Cakes in pans: Level 1 from the
bottom
Flat baked goods (e.g. cookies,
cakes): Level 2 from the bottom
Baking on 2 levels at the same time:
Levels 1+3 from the bottom or levels
2+3 from the bottom
– Combi Bake
Insert the glass tray on Level 1 from
the bottom and place the bakeware
on it.
Tips
– Setting the cooking duration. When
baking, the oven should not be set to
start after an extended period of time.
Otherwise the cake mixture or dough
will dry out, and the raising agents
will lose their effectiveness.
– Place cakes in rectangular bakeware
on the rack with the longer side
across the width of the oven for
optimum heat distribution and even
results.
– Surround
Cakes in pans: Level 1 from the
bottom
Flat baked goods (e.g. cookies,
cakes: Level 2 from the bottom
– Intensive
In general use Level 1 from the
bottom.

Roast
Always follow USDA guidelines on
food safety.
Oven modes
Convection Bake / Convection Roast
, Auto Roast
For roasting meat, fish and poultry
dishes in which a browned finish is
desired.
Combi Bake ,
Combi Auto Roast
The program duration is shorter with
these modes.
Set the microwave to the following
levels for the entire cooking duration.
– For meat and fish: max. level 3.
– For poultry: level 2.
This combination mode is not suitable
for cooking roast beef or tenderloins.
The center would be too well cooked
before the exterior is browned.
Cookware
Please take into account the material of
your bakeware in your choice of oven
mode:
– Convection Bake / Convection Roast
/ Auto Roast :
Oven dishes, ovenproof ceramic
dishes and glass dishes.
Make sure that the pot and lid have
heat-resistant handles.
– Combi Bake / Combi Auto Roast
:
Dishes must be suitable for use in a
microwave oven and must not have
metal lids (see "Containers suitable
for microwave use").
Roasting in a closed pan
Season the meat and place it in the
roasting dish. Dot with butter or
brush with oil if necessary. For large
lean cuts of meat 4.5-6.5 lbs (2–3 kg)
and fatty poultry, add about 1/2 cup
(1/8 l) of water to the dish.
When using a roasting bag, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Roasting on the rack
Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or
place a few strips of bacon on the top.
Do not add too much liquid during
cooking as this will hinder the
browning process.
87
Page 88
Roast
Temperature
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.
Shelf levels
– Convection Bake / Convection Roast
/ Auto Roast :
Rack with meat on it on shelf level 1
– Combi Bake /
Combi Auto Roast :
Rack or glass tray with meat on it on
shelf level 1
Tips
– Resting time: At the end of the
program, take the roast out of the
oven, cover with aluminum foil and
let stand for about 10 minutes. This
helps retain the juices when the meat
is sliced.
– The larger the cut of meat to be
roasted, the lower the temperature
should be. The roasting process will
take a little longer, but the meat will
be cooked evenly and the outside will
become crisp.
– Use a roast probe for accurate
cooking temperatures and best
results.
88
Page 89
Roast
Roast Probe
The roast probe enables the roasting
process to be monitored simply and
reliably.
How the roast probe works
The metal tip of the roast probe is
inserted into the food. There is a
temperature sensor in the metal tip
which measures the core temperature
of the food during cooking. The rise in
the core temperature reflects the extent
to which the food is cooked. You can
program the core temperature to be
lower or higher, depending on how you
would like the meat cooked, rare,
medium or well-done.
A core temperature of up to 210°F
(99°C) can be set. Please refer to the
roasting chart and "Slow cooking" for
the core temperatures applicable for
different types of meat.
When to use the roast probe
Apart from MasterChef programs,
Special Modes and Favorites, the roast
probe can be used with the following
oven modes:
– Auto Roast
– Convection Bake / Convection Roast
– Surround / Surround Roast
– Convection Broil
– Microwave
– Combi Auto Roast
– Combi Bake
– Combi Broil
The cooking time will be similar when
cooking with or without the roast probe.

Roast
Important notes regarding the roast probe
Please note:
– You can place the meat in a pot, on
the rack or in the glass tray,
depending on the mode selected.
– The metal tip of the roast probe must
be fully inserted into the center of the
food.
– When cooking poultry, insert the
metal tip into the thickest part of the
breast. You can find the thickest part
of the breast by pressing the area
with your thumb and index finger.
– Do not let the metal tip touch any
bones or insert it into a fatty area of
the meat. If fat or bone come into
contact with the probe, this can lead
to the oven being turned off too early.
– If the meat is very heavily marbled
with fat, select the highest core
temperature given in the roasting
chart.
– When using roasting bags or
aluminum foil, insert the probe
through the bag or foil into the center
of the meat. You can also place the
meat, with the roast probe inserted,
inside the foil. Follow the roasting
bag / aluminum foil manufacturer's
instructions.
Using the roast probe
Insert the metal tip of the roast probe
fully into the food.
Place the food in the oven.
Insert the plug of the roast probe into
the socket until you feel it engage.
Close the door.
Select an oven mode or MasterChef
program.
Set the temperature or power level if
necessary.
Set the core temperature if
necessary.
The core temperatures cannot be
changed for the MasterChef
programs.

Roast
You can also delay the start of the
cooking program to a later time. To do
this, select Start at.. In the MasterChef
programs select Start Later.
You can estimate approximately when
the food will be ready as the duration of
the cooking program is about the same
as if you were cooking food without
using the roast probe.
Duration and Ready at cannot be set
because the total time depends on how
long it takes for the core temperature to
be reached.
Time left display
After a certain time, the estimated
duration of the cooking process
remaining (time left) will appear in the
display.
The time left is calculated from the
cooking temperature selected, the
required core temperature and the
pattern of the increasing core
temperature.
The time left first shown is an estimate.
As the cooking process continues, the
time is revised continuously, and a
more accurate figure is shown.
The time left will be deleted if the
cooking or core temperature is changed
or if a different mode is selected. If the
door is opened for a longer time, the
time left will be recalculated.

Displaying the core temperature
As soon as the time remaining appears,
you can also display the actual core
temperature.
Select Change.
Select Display core temperature.
Select On.
Confirm with OK.
The actual core temperature will also
appear in the display.
Using residual heat
Shortly before the end of the cooking
program the oven heating will turn off.
The residual heat in the oven is
sufficient to complete the cooking
process.
Using the residual heat in the oven
saves energy.
Energy Save Phase will appear in the
display to show that the oven is in
energy save mode. The measured core
temperature is no longer visible.
The cooling fan and hot air fan (if turned
on) will continue to run.
When the selected core temperature
has been reched,
– Program Finished appears in the
display,
– A buzzer will sound if turned on (see
"Settings - Volume - Buzzer tones").
Tip:: If the food is not sufficiently
cooked, insert the probe into another
place and repeat the program.
92
Page 93
Slow Roasting
This cooking method is ideal for
cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when
a tender result is desired.
First, using a cooktop sear the meat on
all sides to seal in the juices.
Then place the meat in a preheated
oven. It will be cooked at a low
temperature for an extended time
allowing the meat to become very
tender.
The meat will rest and the juices start to
circulate evenly throughout.
This gives the meat a very tender and
juicy result.
Tips
– Use fresh, lean meat that has been
trimmed. Remove the bones before
cooking.
– When searing, use a suitable cooking
oil or fat that can withstand high
temperatures (e.g. clarified butter,
vegetable oil).
– Do not cover the meat during
cooking.
Cooking will take approx. 2-4 hours,
depending on the size and weight of
the meat, as well as the desired
degree of doneness and browning.

After the cooking process
Because the cooking temperatures are
very low:
– the meat can be carved immediately,
it does not need to rest.
– the cooking result will not be affected
if the meat is left in the oven after the
program is complete. It can be kept
warm until you serve it.
– the meat is at an ideal temperature to
eat right away. Serve on heated
plates with a hot sauce or gravy to
keep it warm.

Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking
Before defrosting, reheating and cooking
Place food (frozen or unfrozen) in a
dish that is suitable for microwave
use, and cover it.
Place the dish in the middle of the
glass tray on shelf level 1.
The roast probe can be used to
monitor the temperature when
reheating or cooking (see "Roast Roast probe").
With Microwave Combi modes
Use only microwave-safe and heat-
resistant cookware.
A lid is not usually required.
Never use a lid with the Combi Auto
Roast and Micro Broil modes
as the food will not brown.
Place the glass tray on shelf level 2.
Place pre-made meals in aluminum
containers directly on the glass tray.
During the defrosting, reheating and cooking process
Turn or stir the food several times.
Stir the food from the outside
towards the middle, as food heats
more quickly from the outside.
After defrosting, reheating and cooking
Compensating times are resting periods
in which the temperature is uniformly
distributed in the food.
Allow the food to stand at room
temperature for a few minutes to
enable the heat to spread evenly
throughout the food.
Danger of burns!
After reheating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir the
food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger. Double check after
it has been left to stand.
Danger of burns!
Be careful when removing dishes
from the appliance. Although heat is
not normally produced in the
container itself by the microwaves
(apart from stoneware), heat transfer
from the food to the container may
be considerable, making the
container itself hot.
Use pot holders when removing
dishes.
Always ensure that food is sufficiently
cooked or reheated.
Always follow proper food safety
guidelines.
