Warning and Safety instructions Safety with children Technical safety ~ Keep children away from the steam oven at all times. It is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury do not allow them to play with it or to play with the controls. Supervise children whilst you are using it. ~ Before installation, check the steam ~ Older children may use the the mains supply, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains supply.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been built in. This is necessary to ensure that all electrical components are shielded. ~ Never open the casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
Warning and Safety instructions Correct use ~ For added protection, it is advisable to use heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself. ~ If the oven is still hot, steam will escape when the door is opened. Stand back away from the appliance and wait until the steam has dissipated.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ Take care not to tip the water container when taking it out of the appliance. Hot water can scald. ~ To avoid the risk of scratches, do not use the casing of a freestanding appliance as a resting place for items. ~ When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender, near the steam oven, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot get trapped by the steam oven door.

Before using for the first time Setting the correct boiling point for water Water at a high altitude above sea level will not reach the boiling point for water at sea level. To adjust the appliance for the altitude in your area, fill the water container with mains tap water (see "Operation / Preparing the appliance for use") and then run the appliance at 100 °C for 15 minutes. Proceed as described in "Operation".
Operation Preparing the appliance for use ^ Fill the water container with mains tap water up to at least the "min" marker. You do not need to remove the insert. Only use mains tap water. Never use distilled or mineral water or other liquids. ^ Push the water container into the appliance until it connects. If the water container is not positioned correctly, the appliance will not heat up and after a while F20 will appear in the display (see "Problem solving guide"). ^ Place the food in the oven.

It should be cleaned after each use. Make sure the appliance is completely dry before closing the door.
Cleaning and care Appliance front / Casing 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. After cleaning dry with a soft cloth. The external surfaces of this appliance are all susceptible to scratching. Scratches on glass surfaces could even cause a breakage.
Cleaning and care Oven interior Dry the oven interior, oven interior roof, door seal, drip channel, inside of the door and the compartment for the water container after each use. Use a sponge or absorbent cloth to wipe off the condensate which has built up in the compartment. Remove grease deposits with a clean sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid. Rinse with clean water and then dry the oven interior with a soft cloth.

Cleaning and care Coupling seal If the water container becomes difficult to remove and replace or the fault message F20 appears, rub a small amount of the silicone grease supplied (see "Guide to the appliance / Accessories supplied") into the inside of the coupling seal. Do not take the seal out to lubricate it! When handling silicone grease, please observe the following safety measures: – Remove any silicone grease from your skin either by wiping it off or by washing it off.
Cleaning and care Descaling For optimum cleaning results we recommend that you use Miele descaling tablets to descale your steam oven (see "Optional accessories"). A proprietary citric acid based descaling agent can also be used. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. Ensure that the descaling agent does not come into contact with the metal control panel or the door handle as this could cause marks. However, should any descaling agent get onto these surfaces, wipe it away immediately.
Cleaning and care Descaling will now begin. The colon will flash and the k symbol will now light up constantly in the display. It is only possible to cancel the descaling process during the first minute. After that the process cannot be cancelled. Do not switch the appliance off during the descaling process. If it is switched off before the end of the process, the whole process will have to be started from the beginning again.
