Contents

This appliance conforms to current

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.

Keep these instructions in a safe

place and ensure that new users are

familiar with the contents. Pass them

on to any future owner.

Correct application

This oven is not designed for

commercial use. It is intended for use in

domestic households and for use in

similar working and residential

environments such as:

–

Shops

–

Offices and showrooms

and by residents in establishments

such as:

–

Hostels and guest houses

It is intended for domestic use only

to cook food, and in particular to bake,

roast, grill, cook, defrost and dry food.

Any other use is not supported by the

manufacturer and could be dangerous.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage

resulting from incorrect or improper use

or operation.

This oven is not intended for use by

persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, unless they are supervised

whilst using it or have been shown how

to use it correctly by a person

responsible for their safety.

Warning and safety instructions

Safety with children

This appliance is not a toy! To

prevent the risk of injury do not let

children play with the appliance or its

controls.

Older children may only use the

oven when its operation has been

clearly explained to them and they are

able to use it safely, recognising the

dangers of misuse.

Great care should be taken to

ensure that children do not touch the

appliance when it is being used.

Children's skin is far more sensitive to

high temperatures than that of adults.

External parts of the oven such as the

door glass, control panel and the vent

become quite hot.

Technical safety

Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a

suitably qualified and competent

person in strict accordance with current

national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified

persons could be dangerous. The

manufacturer cannot be held liable for

unauthorised work.

Before installation, check the

appliance for visible signs of damage.

Do not install and use a damaged

appliance. It could be dangerous.

The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it

and an effective earthing system. It is

most important that this basic safety

requirement is present and tested

regularly, and where there is any doubt

the household wiring system should be

inspected by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable

for the consequences of an inadequate

earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Warning and safety instructions

Before connecting the oven to the

mains supply, make sure that the

connection data on the data plate

(voltage and connected load) match

the mains electricity supply. This data

must correspond in order to avoid the

risk of damage to the appliance.

Consult a competent person if in doubt.

Do not connect the appliance to the

mains electricity supply by a multi-

socket unit or an extension lead. These

do not guarantee the required safety of

the appliance (e.g. danger of

overheating).

For safety reasons, this appliance

may only be used when it has been

built in.

Never open the housing of the

appliance.

Tampering with electrical connections

or components and mechanical parts is

highly dangerous to the user and can

cause operational faults.

While the appliance is under

guarantee, repairs should only be

undertaken by a service technician

authorised by the manufacturer.

Otherwise the guarantee will be

invalidated.

During installation, maintenance and

repair work, the appliance must be

disconnected from the mains electricity

supply. It is only completely isolated

from the electricity supply when:

–

the mains fuse is disconnected,

–

the screw-out fuse is removed (in

countries where this is applicable),

–

it is switched off at the isolator.

Ensure that current is not supplied to

the appliance until after maintenance

or repair work has been carried out.

Faulty components must only be

replaced by genuine Miele original

spare parts. The manufacturer can only

guarantee the safety of the appliance

when Miele replacement parts are

used.

If the supply cord is damaged it

must be replaced by a Miele approved

service technician to avoid a hazard.

This appliance may only be used in

mobile installations if a risk assessment

of the installation has been carried out

by a suitably qualified engineer.

In areas which may be subject to

infestation by cockroaches or other

vermin, pay particular attention to

keeping the appliance and its

surroundings in a clean condition at all

times. Any damage which may be

caused by cockroaches or other vermin

will not be covered by the guarantee.

Warning and safety instructions

Correct use

Caution! Danger of burning.

High temperatures are produced by

the oven.

Use oven gloves when placing food

in the oven, turning or removing it and

when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a

hot oven. Be very careful that you do

not burn yourself on the top heating/grill

element.

Never leave the appliance

unattended when cooking with oil or

fats, as these are a fire hazard if

allowed to overheat.

Do not exceed the recommended

grilling times when using the "Grill Y"/

"Fan grill \" functions.

Grilling for too long can cause food to

dry out and even in some

circumstances to self-ignite.

Do not use "Grill Y" / "Fan grill \"

to finish baking part-cooked rolls or

bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Fire

hazard!

Use "Fan plus U" or "Conventional V"

instead.

If using alcohol in your recipes, high

temperatures can cause the alcohol to

vaporise and even to ignite on the hot

heating elements.

Alcohol should be burnt off before the

dish is placed in the oven to avoid this

danger.

Cover any food which is left in the

oven to be kept hot. Any moisture in the

food could lead to corrosion damage in

the oven. This also prevents the food

from drying out.

If you wish to complete a cooking

process using the residual heat in the

oven, leave the oven at the function

selected and select the lowest

temperature for that function. Do not

switch the appliance off until the food

has been removed. Increased moisture

in the oven could cause condensation

to form which could lead to

– corrosion in the oven compartment.

– damage to the control panel, worktop

and surrounding kitchen furniture.

Never line the floor of the oven with

aluminium foil when using

"Conventional V", "Intensive bake O",

"Gentle bake K" or "Rapid heat-up S".

This would cause a build-up of heat

which could damage the floor of the

oven.

For this reason do not place a dish, tin

or baking tray directly on the oven floor.

If using a tray made by a different

manufacturer, make sure that there is a

gap of at least 6 cm between the

bottom of the tray and the floor of the

appliance.

Warning and safety instructions

Never add water to food on a hot

baking tray or directly onto food in a hot

oven. The steam created could cause

serious burns or scalding and the

sudden change in temperature can

damage the enamel.

Always ensure that food is suitably

cooked or reheated.

Some foods may contain micro-

organisms which are only destroyed by

thorough cooking at temperatures over

70°C for a minimum of 10 minutes.

Therefore when cooking or reheating

foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly

important that food is fully cooked

through. If in doubt select a longer

cooking or reheating time.

It is important that the heat is allowed to

spread evenly throughout the food

being cooked. This can be achieved

by stirring and/or turning the food

during cooking.

If using plastic containers for

cooking, they must be declared by the

manufacturer as being suitable for use

in an oven.

Other types of plastic containers melt at

high temperatures, and could damage

the oven.

Do not heat up unopened tins or jars

of food in the oven. Pressure can build

up and they may explode, resulting in

injury or damage.

Do not push pots and pans around

on the oven floor, as this could damage

the surface.

Do not lean or sit on an open oven

door or place heavy items on it. Make

sure that nothing gets trapped between

the door and the oven compartment.

This could damage the oven.

The oven door can support a maximum

load of 15 kg.

Do not use the appliance to heat up

the room. Due to the high temperatures

radiated, objects near the appliance

could catch fire.

Accessories

Only use genuine Miele spare parts

and accessories with this appliance. If

spare parts or accessories from other

manufacturers are used, this will

invalidate the guarantee, and Miele

cannot accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by non-

compliance with these Warning and

Safety instructions.

Warning and safety instructions

Disposal of the packing

material

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for

disposal, and should be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings,

bags, etc. are disposed of safely and

kept out of the reach of babies and

young children. Danger of suffocation.

Disposal 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.

Features

Oven controls

The oven controls are used for

selecting the various cooking

programmes for baking, roasting and

grilling.

Appliances with a clock/timer also

feature the following:

–

a time of day display,

–

a minute minder,

–

an automatic switch-off procedure for

cooking processes.

Cooling system

A cooling fan will come on

automatically when a cooking

programme is started. The cooling fan

mixes hot air from the oven cavity with

cool room air before venting it out into

the kitchen through vents located

between the appliance door and the

control panel.

The cooling fan will continue to run for a

while after the oven has been switched

off to prevent any humidity building up

in the oven, on the control panel or on

the oven housing unit.

When the temperature in the oven has

fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will

switch off automatically.

PerfectClean treated surfaces

The following surfaces are all treated

with PerfectClean enamelling:

–

Oven interior

–

Universal tray

–

Anti-splash insert (if present).

PerfectClean surfaces have very good

anti-stick properties and are much

easier to keep clean than conventional

enamel, if cleaned regularly.

See "Cleaning and care" for more

information.

Catalytic enamelled surfaces

The back panel, roof liner (if fitted) and

side panels (if fitted) are coated with

dark grey catalytic enamel. Soiling from

oil and fat is burnt off these surfaces

when very high temperatures are used

in the oven.

See "Cleaning and care" for more

information.

Retractable controls

The controls are retractable at the 0

position.

To release or retract a control simply

press and release it.

The control must be at the 0 or the

12 o'clock position in order to

release or retract it. If it is not you

will damage it!

Energy efficiency rating

according to EN 50304

This appliance is rated efficiency class

A in accordance with EN 50304. Tests

were carried out using "Fan plus U"

without catalytic side panels or roof

liner fitted.

Guide to the appliance

Accessories

(depending on model)

The following accessories are supplied

with this oven.

These and other accessories are also

available to order from the Miele Spare

Parts Department, your Dealer or via

the internet at www.miele-shop.com.

See "Optional accessories"" further on

in this booklet for more details.

Universal tray and rack

The universal tray and rack have non-tip

safety notches which prevent them

being pulled right out when they only

need to be partially pulled out.

When pushing the tray and rack

back in, always ensure that the

safety notches are at the rear of the

oven (see illustration).

The universal tray and rack can then

only be taken out of the oven by raising

them upwards and then pulling them

out.

Anti-splash insert

The anti-splash tray should be placed

in the universal tray when grilling or

roasting.

The juices from the food being cooked

collect under the anti-splash tray. This

prevents them from spitting and making

the oven dirty. The juices can then be

used for making gravy and sauces.

Handle (depending on model)

The handle makes it easier to take the

tray and rack out of the oven, or to put

them into it. The two prongs at the top

go inside the tray or over the top of the

rack and the U-shaped supports

underneath.

Oven function Notes

U Fan plus

–

For baking and roasting.

–

You can bake and roast on different levels at the

same time.

–

Lower temperatures can be used than with

"Conventional V" as the Fan plus system distributes

the heated air around the food.

O Intensive bake

–

For cooking dishes which require a moist topping and

a crisp base such as pizza and quiche lorraine.

–

Intensive bake is not suitable for baking biscuits or for

roasting as the juices will become too dark.

V Conventional

–

For baking traditional recipes, e.g. fruit cake,

casseroles.

– Also ideal for soufflés.

– If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven

temperature for Conventional, 10°C lower than that

recommended.

The cooking duration does not need to be changed.

K Gentle bake – Suitable for bakes and gratins where a cripsy finish is

required.

Y Grill – For grilling thin cuts and for browning food.

\ Fan grill

–

For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.

–

The hot air from the grill is distributed over the food by

the fan. This enables a lower temperature to be

selected than when using "Grill Y".

P Defrost

–

For the gentle defrosting of frozen food.

S Rapid heat-up

–

For pre-heating the oven compartment.

The oven function required must then be selected.

shelf levels and durations.

Handling and preparing food

correctly is essential for maintaining

good health.

Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc

until they are golden. Do not

overcook them.

Temperature, baking duration

To achieve even results without over-

browning the food

– always select the lowest

temperature given in the chart.

Do not set a temperature higher than

that recommended. Increasing the

temperature may reduce the cooking

time, but will lead to uneven

browning, and unsatisfactory

cooking results.

–

Check if the food is cooked at the

end of the shortest time quoted.

To check if a cake is ready, insert a

wooden skewer into the centre.

It is ready if the skewer comes out

clean, without dough or crumbs

sticking to it.

Bakeware

Material

Most types of heat-resistant tins

or dishes are suitable.

V Use baking tins made from dark

metal or enamel or from

aluminium with a matt finish.

Heat resistant glass and

ceramic dishes can also be

used.

Bright, shiny metal tins result in

uneven or poor browning and in

some cases cakes might not

cook properly.

Baking parchment

Because of its PerfectClean anti-stick

surface the universal tray does not

need to be greased or lined with baking

parchment for baking.

Baked goods are easily removed when

done.

Baking parchment is only necessary

when baking:

–

Anything with a high salt content

(e. g. pretzels, bread sticks),

because sodium can damage the

PerfectClean surface.

–

Meringues or biscuits with a high

egg-white content, because they

are more likely to stick.

Baking tips

Universal tray

When baking cakes with fresh fruit

toppings and tall sponge cakes place

the tin in the universal tray to catch any

spillages and keep the oven cleaner.

Retangular tins

Place cakes in rectangular tins with the

longer side across the width of the oven

for optimum heat distribution and even

results.

Shelf levels

The shelf levels are counted from the

bottom of the oven upwards (1 =

lowest, 4 = highest).

Trays Shelf levels *

U 11

2 1 and 3

3 1,2and4**

O 1 1 or 2

V 1 1 or 2

* Always use the rack on shelf level 1

for cakes in tins.

** When baking moist cakes, bread etc

do not use more than two trays at the

same time.

Frozen food

When baking frozen products such as

cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the

lowest temperature quoted on the

manufacturer's packaging.

Place them on baking parchment on

the rack itself or in the pizza pan (see

"Optional accessories"). Placing them

on the universal tray can cause the

metal to distort. This distortion would

increase with subsequent use.

Small items of frozen food such as

oven chips or potato croquettes can

be cooked on the universal tray. Place

them on baking parchment and select

the lowest temperature quoted on the

manufacturer's packaging. Turn several

times during cooking.

Recommendations Notes

Function

Fan plus U You can also use "Conventional V".

Containers

Any heat-proof containers

can be used:

the Miele Gourmet oven

dish, roasting pans with a

lid, made from

earthenware, cast iron,

ovenproof china or glass,

roasting bags, the rack in

the universal tray.

We recommend roasting in a covered pot, as

–

this ensures that sufficient stock remains for

making gravy.

–

the oven stays cleaner than with open roasting.

Shelf level

1st shelf level from the

bottom

When using "Conventional V" for poultry up to 1 kg,

beef/fillet, and fish use shelf level 2.

Pre-heating

Generally not required Place the pot on the rack in a cold oven.

Pre-heating is only required when roasting beef/fillet.

Temperature

Please refer to the roasting

chart.

– Do not select a higher temperature than that

suggested. The meat will become brown, but will

not be cooked properly.

– With "Fan plus U", a temperature of 20 °C less

than for "Conventional V" is sufficient.

–

For cuts which weigh 3 kg or more, select a

temperature approx. 10 °C lower than that given in

the roasting chart.

Roasting will take longer at the lower temperature,

but will be more even.

–

For roasting directly on the rack, select a

temperature that is about 20°C lower than for

roasting in a covered pot.

Roasting time

Please refer to the roasting

chart

To calculate the roasting time: The traditional British

method is to allow 15 to 20 minutes per lb/454

grammes, according to type of meat, plus approx.

20 minutes, adjusting the length of time as roasting

proceeds to obtain the required result.

Roasting tips

Useful tips

Browning

Browning only occurs towards the end

of the roasting time. Remove the lid

about halfway through the roasting time

if a more intensive browning result is

desired.

Standing time

At the end of the programme, take the

roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium

foil and leave to stand for about

10 minutes. This helps retain juices

when the meat is carved.

Roasting poultry

For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten

minutes before the end of cooking time

with slightly salted water.

Frozen meat

Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat

should be thoroughly defrosted before

roasting.

Grilling time

Please refer to the

Grill chart.

–

Flat pieces of fish and meat usually take6–8 minutes

per side. Thicker pieces take a little longer.

–

With rolled meats allow approx. 10 minutes per cm

diameter.

–

Most items should be turned half way through cooking.

Grilling tips

Preparing food for grilling

Clean, wipe dry and season with

pepper and herbs. Do not season meat

with salt before grilling as this draws

the juices out.

Add a little oil if necessary. Do not use

other types of fat as they can get too

dark, burn and cause smoke.

Clean fish in the normal way. To

enhance the taste, add a little salt or

squeeze a little lemon juice over the

fish.

Grilling on the rack

Assemble the rack and anti-splash

tray (if available) on the universal tray

as illustrated.

Place the food on the rack.

Select the required function and set

the temperature.

Pre-heat the grill for at least

5 minutes with the door shut before

grilling.

Place the tray and rack under the grill

and shut the door.

Most items should be turned half way

through cooking.

Useful tips

It is best to grill food of a similar

thickness at the same time so that the

grilling time for each item does not vary

too greatly.

To grill thicker pieces of food more

gradually after an initial high

temperature, continue grilling at a lower

temperature setting or use a lower shelf

runner to allow the food to cook through

to the centre.

One way of finding out how far through

a piece of meat has been cooked is to

press down on it with a spoon:

– If there is very little resistance to the

pressure of the spoon, it is still red on

the inside ("rare").

– If there is some resistance the inside

will be pink ("medium").

– If there is great resistance, it is

throughly cooked through ("well

done").

Grilling tips

Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minutes with the door shut before grilling.

Grill chart

The "Defrost P" function uses the fan

to circulate air at room temperature.

Please note:

–

Where possible remove the

packaging and put the food to be

defrosted on the universal tray or into

a suitable dish.

–

When defrosting poultry, put it on the

rack over the universal tray to catch

the defrosted liquid so that the meat

is not lying in this liquid.

It is particularly important to

observe food hygiene rules when

defrosting poultry. Do not use the

liquid from the defrosted poultry.

Pour it away, and wash the tray, the

sink and your hands. Danger of

salmonella poisoning.

– Fish does not need to be fully

defrosted before cooking. Defrost so

that the surface is sufficiently soft to

take herbs and seasoning.

Do not refreeze food once it has

thawed.

Defrosting times

The time needed for defrosting

depends on the type and weight of the

food, and at what temperature it was

deep frozen. The following chart is for

guidance only. It is important to

manually check the food to ensure it is

thoroughly defrosted.

Chicken, 800 g ..........90-120 min.

Meat, 500 g..............60-90 min.

Meat, 1,000 g ...........90-120 min.

Sausages, 500 g..........30-50 min.

Defrosting

Cooking ready meals

We recommend using "Fan plus U".

Cook frozen desserts and pizza on baking paper on the rack rather than in the

universal tray. Cooking large frozen items on the universal tray can cause the

metal to distort. This distortion will increase with each subsequent use.

Frozen food such as oven chips or croquette potatoes can, however, be

cooked on the universal tray.

Cooking

Miele branded cleaning and

conditioning products are available

from the Miele Spare Parts Department

or via the internet at www.miele-

shop.com.

Do not use a steam cleaner to

clean the appliance. The steam

could reach electrical components

and cause a short circuit.

Appliance front

Remove any soiling immediately.

If this is not done, it might become

impossible to remove and could

cause the surface to alter or

discolour.

Clean the front using a damp Miele

microfibre E-cloth or with a clean

sponge and a solution of hot water and

washing-up liquid. Then dry with a soft

cloth.

The external surfaces of the

appliance are susceptible to

scratching. Scratches on glass

surfaces could even cause a

breakage in certain circumstances.

Contact with unsuitable cleaning

agents can alter or discolour the

external surfaces.

To prevent damage to your appliance

when cleaning, do not use:

–

cleaning agents containing soda,

ammonia, acids or chlorides,

– cleaning agents containing

descaling agents,

– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

powder cleaners and cream

cleaners,

– solvent-based cleaning agents,

– stainless steel cleaning agents,

– dishwasher cleaner,

–

oven sprays,

–

glass cleaning agents,

–

hard, abrasive sponges and

brushes, e.g. pot scourers,

–

melamine eraser blocks,

–

sharp metal scrapers.

Cleaning and care

Accessories

Universal tray, anti-splash insert (if

applicable)

The surface has been treated with

PerfectClean enamel.

Please refer to the section on

"PerfectClean" for information on

cleaning and care.

Rack, runners

Use hot water and a little washing up

liquid, or a non-scouring stainless steel

cleaning agent.

Oven interior

Allow the oven to cool down before

cleaning.

Danger of burning.

The oven interior should be cleaned

after each use. If this is not done,

subsequent soiling from baking and

roasting will become worse and

make cleaning harder. In extreme

cases soiling will be impossible to

remove or even cause damage to

the surface material.

The oven interior is PerfectClean

enamelled.

Please refer to the section on

"PerfectClean" for information on

cleaning and care.

The back panel, side panels and roof

liner are coated with a dark grey

catalytic enamel.

See the cleaning instructions for

"Catalytic enamelled surfaces".

To make cleaning easier

–

remove the oven door,

–

dismantle the door,

–

take out the shelf runners,

–

remove the catalytic enamelled back

panel, roof liner and side panels.

–

lower the top heating/grill element.

Instructions for doing so are given

further on in this section.

Seal and inside of the oven door

Grease desposits on the seal between

the inside of the oven door and the

oven interior can cause it to become

brittle and cracked.

It is best to clean the seal and the

inside of the door after each use with a

Miele E-cloth or a clean sponge and a

solution of hot water with a little

washing up liquid. Then dry with a soft

cloth.

Cleaning and care

PerfectClean

The following have a PerfectClean

treated surface:

–

The oven interior

–

The universal tray

–

The anti-splash insert (if applicable).

This surface has very good anti-stick

properties and is much easier to keep

clean than conventional oven enamel, if

cleaned regularly.

Food can be lifted off it more easily,

and soiling from baking and roasting is

easier to remove.

The following notes on cleaning and

care should ensure that the anti-stick

and easy clean properties of

PerfectClean last for many years.

PerfectClean surfaces can be treated

as you would treat glass.

Food can be sliced or cut up on the

PerfectClean surface in the same way

as on a baking tray with conventional

enamel.

Do not use ceramic knives on

PerfectClean treated surfaces, as

these can cause scratches.

Allow the oven and any

accessories to cool down before

cleaning by hand. Danger of

burning.

For the optimum performance of

PerfectClean enamel it is important to

clean the oven and accessories after

each use.

The surfaces will become harder to

clean and the anti-stick properties will

deteriorate if soiling is not removed

after each use and allowed to build up.

In extreme cases cleaning may

become impossible.

The following cause lasting damage

to the surface structure, reduce the

anti-stick effect and must not be

used on PerfectClean surfaces:

– Abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

powder cleaners and cream

cleaners.

–

Cleaning agents for ceramic hobs.

–

Wire wool or metal scourers.

–

Abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers

or sponges which have been

previously used with abrasive

cleaning agents.

–

Oven spray must not be used in a

hot oven or left on for too long.

–

PerfectClean enamelled items must

not be washed in a dishwasher.

–

Do not spot-clean by rubbing the

surface.

Cleaning and care

Normal soiling should be cleaned as

soon as possible with a dishcloth, soft

sponge or a soft nylon brush, and a

solution of hot water and a little washing

up liquid. The longer soiling is left, the

harder it may become to remove.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with

clean water. The water must run off the

surface easily. Any residual cleaning

agents will hinder this effect.

Stubborn soiling, e.g. from roasting,

may need to be soaked first with a

damp sponge to loosen it and if

necessary, a non-abrasive stainless

steel spiral pad or a scraper suitable for

glass can be used to remove it.

Remove all catalytic enamelled

panels from the oven interior before

using oven spray. The chemicals

used in oven sprays will damage

catalytic enamel, rendering it

ineffective. Some oven cleaners

contain strong alkalines and/or

abrasive materials. Because

PerfectClean enamel is designed to

be easily cleaned, the use of these

cleaners is not recommended.

However, if you still cannot get the

surface clean, an oven cleaner can

be used, but for a few minutes only.

Allow the PerfectClean surfaces to cool

down to room temperature before

applying the spray. Apply spray oven

cleaner to the soiled areas, then leave

to take effect for a few minutes only (no

more than 10 minutes). If necessary

use a soft sponge, soft nylon brush or a

scraper suitable for glass surfaces to

loosen the soiling.

Repeat the process if necessary.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with

clean water and then dry thoroughly.

For extremely stubborn soiling a

glass scraper or a non-abrasive

stainless steel pad can be used.

Should the PerfectClean surface be

damaged by any of the above

measures not being heeded, it will still

retain the anti-stick qualities of standard

enamel and be as easy to keep clean

as standard enamel.

Please note:

– Soiling such as spilt juices and cake

mixtures are best removed whilst the

oven or tray is still warm. Excercise

caution and make sure the oven is

not too hot - danger of burning.

– Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting

discolouration to the surfaces, and

roasting can cause matt areas to

appear. Clean these following the

instructions given above and do not

use force to remove them. The

discolouration is permanent, but will

not affect the efficiency of the

enamel.

Cleaning and care

Catalytic enamelled surfaces

The back panel, roof liner (if fitted)

and side panels (if fitted) are coated

with dark grey catalytic enamel.

Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off these

surfaces when very high temperatures

are used in the oven. The higher the

temperature, the more effective the

process.

The catalytic coating becomes

ineffective through using

– abrasive cleaning agents,

– hard brushes or abrasive

sponges,

– oven sprays.

Remove the catalytic back panel,

side panels and roof liner from the

oven before cleaning the

PerfectClean oven surfaces with

oven spray.

Note that deposits of spices, syrups

and similar substances are not

removed from the catalytic coating by

this process. These should be removed

by hand whilst still fresh, using a mild

solution of hot water and washing up

liquid applied with a soft sponge or

brush. Remove the panels from the

oven to do this.

Soiling caused by oil and grease

splashes are removed from catalytic

coated surfaces when the oven is

heated to a high temperature. To do

this:

Take all accessories out of the oven.

Wipe large deposits of soiling from

the oven interior and the inside of the

door before starting the cleaning

process to avoid them baking onto

PerfectClean surfaces and becoming

impossible to remove.

Select "Fan plus U".

Set the highest temperature setting.

Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. The

length of time will depend on the

level of soiling.

If the catalytic coated panels are

very heavily soiled with oil and

grease, a film will develop on the

oven surface during the cleaning

process which can be wiped off with

warm water and a little washing up

liquid once cool.

^ Finally, clean the PerfectClean

surfaces, the seal and the inside of

the door.

On models with a clock/timer, you can

set this procedure to finish

automatically; see the appropriate

section.

Any remaining soiling will gradually

disappear with each subsequent use of

the oven at high temperatures.

Should the catalytic coating on the

back panel, roof liner or side panels

become ineffective through

improper use or heavy soiling,

replacements can be obtained from

your Miele dealer or the Miele Spare

Parts Department.

Cleaning and care

To remove the oven door

The oven door is connected to the oven

by hinges.

Before removing the door, the locking

clamps on both hinges have to be

released.

^ Open the door fully.

To release the locking clamps on the

hinges turn them upwards as far as

they will go until they are at an angle.

See illustration.

Then lift the door upwards as far as it

will go.

Do not attempt to take the door off

the hinge guides when it is in a

horizontal position. The guides will

close, and damage the appliance.

Danger of injury.

Hold the door securely at both sides

and lift upwards off the hinge guides.

Do not lift the door off by the handle.

The handle could break and

damage the glass panes.

Make sure that you lift the door off

equally on both sides.

Cleaning and care

To dismantle the oven door

The oven door has seals on all sides to

protect it.

If, however, condensate has worked its

way in between the glass panes, the

door can be dismantled in order to

clean in between the panes.

Do not use scouring agents, hard

sponges or brushes or sharp metal

tools to clean glass as these can

scratch the surface. Scratches can

also cause the glass to break.

Do not use an oven spray. This will

damage the surface of the

aluminium surrounds.

Ensure that the glass panes are

inserted the correct way round after

cleaning, as each side of the pane

has a different coating. Those facing

the oven interior reflect the heat.

To avoid the risk of breakage, it is

advisable to place the panes on a

table protected by a soft cloth (e.g.

a thick table cloth or a towel).

Always remove the oven door before

dismantling it.

Place the door on a protective

surface (e.g. on a table cloth or

towel) to prevent it getting scratched.

The door handle should just

overhang along the edge of the table

so that the glass lies flat to prevent it

from getting broken during cleaning.

Unscrew the Torx screws, and

remove the guides, trim and seal.

You can now remove the inner and

middle panes.

Cleaning and care

Gently lift the inner pane up and out.

Pull the pane forwards to remove.

Take care when doing this to prevent

loosening the sealing strips which are

fixed to the top end of the pane on the

right and left near the guides. These

sealing strips prevent the pane slipping

when it is in its frame.

Clean the glass panes and other

parts with a Miele E-cloth or a clean

sponge and a solution of hot water

with a little washing up liquid. Wipe

dry using a soft cloth.

Then put the door back together again:

^ Push the middle pane into the frame

almost to the end. Fit the sealing strip

into position, then push the pane in

as far as it will go.

Cleaning and care

Fit the side seals for the inner pane in

the grooves provided.

Insert the inner pane with the printed

text facing downwards.

Be careful that the side seals do not

slip and that the pane is pushed in as

far as possible.

^ Fit the trim with the seal in front of the

glass panes.

Make sure that the seal is sitting

correctly to prevent any steam

penetrating inside the door.

Put the guides back in position, then

tighten the screws in the trim.

Cleaning and care

To refit the door

^ Hold the door securely at both sides

and carefully fit it back onto the hinge

guides.

Make sure that the door goes back

on straight.

Open the door fully.

Flip both locking clamps back up as

far as they will go into a horizontal

position.

Make sure that the notches on the

locking clamps hook into the slots on

the door as illustrated.

It is essential that the locking clamps

lock securely when the door is re-

fitted after cleaning. Otherwise the

hinges could work loose, resulting in

damage to the door.

Cleaning and care

To remove the runners

Make sure the oven heating

elements are switched off and cool.

Danger of burning.

^ Pull the runners to the side and then

forwards. Remove the catalytic side

panels (if present) at the same time.

Reassemble in the reverse order,

carefully ensuring all parts are correctly

in place.

To remove the catalytic

enamelled back panel, side

panels and roof liner

Make sure the oven heating

elements are switched off and cool.

Danger of burning.

You can remove the back panel to

clean it, if necessary.

See "Cleaning and care - Catalytic

enamelled surfaces" for information on

cleaning.

Back panel

^ Remove the runners together with the

side panels (if present).

Remove the screws in the back panel

and take it out.

The oven must not be used without

the back panel fitted.

This could cause considerable

injury.

Reassemble in the reverse order,

carefully ensuring all parts are correctly

in place.

Cleaning and care

Roof liner (if present)

Remove the runners together with the

catalytic side panels (if present).

^ Unscrew the wing nut.

^ Gently lower the element.

Do not use force to pull it down as

this can cause the element to break.

^ Take out the roof liner.

Reassemble in the reverse order,

carefully ensuring all parts are correctly

in place.

Side panels (if present)

Remove the runners together with the

catalytic side panels.

Reassemble in the reverse order,

carefully ensuring all parts are correctly

in place.

^ Ease the side panels into the slots in

the back of the oven and hold

securely.

Then ease the side runners into the

slots in the back of the oven and

secure in position by pushing the pin

through the hole the side panel.

Replace the runners.

Cleaning and care

With the aid of the following guide, minor problems can be easily corrected

without contacting Miele.

Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a suitably

qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and

local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The

manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Ensure current is not supplied until after maintenance or repair work has been

carried out.

Problem Possible cause and remedy

The oven does not

heat up.

–

Check that the function selector and the temperature

selector have been set at the function and temperature

required.

– Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. If it has not

tripped, contact a qualified electrician or Miele.

The heating works

but not the oven

lighting.

The lamp needs changing.

^ Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.

Switch off and unplug at the socket, or disconnect the

mains fuse, or switch off at the isolator as appropriate.

^ Unscrew the lamp cover and the seal.

^ Change the lamp.

When purchasing a new lamp, take the old one with you

to make sure you obtain the correct replacement (230 V,

25 W, E 14, heat resistant to 300 °C).

Screw the lamp cover and the seal back on again.

A noise can be

heard after a

cooking process.

This is not a fault.

The cooling fan continues to run for a while after the oven

has been switched off to prevent any humidity building up

in the oven, on the control panel or on the oven housing

unit. When the temperature has fallen sufficiently, the fan

switches off automatically.

The temperature will fall faster with the oven door open.

Problem solving guide

Problem Possible cause and remedy

Cakes and biscuits

are not cooked

properly after

following the times

given in the chart.

–

Check that the correct temperature has been set.

–

Check whether there has been a change to the recipe.

The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a

moister mix which would need longer to cook.

Browning is uneven. There will always be a slight unevenness. If browning is

very uneven, check

with Fan plus U:

–

whether the temperature was set too high,

–

whether the correct shelf level was used.

with Conventional V:

–

the colour and material of the baking tins being used.

Light coloured, shiny, or thin walled tins are less suitable.

– whether the correct shelf level was used.

There are spots like

rust on the catalytic

surfaces.

When roasting on the rack, the circulating air sometimes

picks up spices, which are then deposited on the oven

interior walls. These residues are not removed by catalytic

cleaning, and should be removed while fresh with a mild

solution of hot water and washing up liquid applied with a

soft brush.

"0k00" is flashing in

the display.

All pre-set times have been lost because of a power cut.

The buzzer will also have been reset to the default tone.

Reset the time and the buzzer tone.
