Never open the casing of the appliance. ~ While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ 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).
Warning and Safety instructions Correct use , Danger of burning. The oven becomes hot when in use. Depending on 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 start to burn. Do not use the oven to heat up the room.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ 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.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ A build-up of heat can cause damage to the enamel on the floor of the oven. When using Fan plus U 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.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ The boiling rod ensures that the liquid heats up evenly with bubbles forming at the right time. When reheating liquids, always place the boiling rod supplied into the cup or glass. When boiling and in particular when re-heating liquids, milk, sauces etc, using microwave power without the boiling rod, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly throughout.
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.

Overview of functions Your oven has a range of oven functions for preparing food. Fan grill \ Grill Y For grilling thicker cuts of meat (e. g. roulades, chicken). Lower temperatures can be used than when using the Grill Y function, as the fan distributes the heat to the food straight away. For grilling thin cuts (e.g. steaks) and browning baked dishes. Auto roast [ Functions which do not use microwave energy Defrost P For the gentle defrosting of frozen food.
Overview of functions Microwave solo _ This function is used to rapidly defrost, reheat and cook food Microwave combination programmes With Microwave combination programmes the heating element and the magnetron switch on and off alternating one after the other. The heating element browns the food and the magnetron helps it cook quickly. A maximum microwave power level of 300 W can be used with Microwave combination programmes.
Microwave power How it works In a microwave combination oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior, and rebound off 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 utensil being used. Microwaves can penetrate porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastics, but not metal.
Suitable containers for microwave use Fire hazard. Non-microwave safe dishes can suffer damage or damage the oven if used with Microwave solo _ or Microwave combination programmes. Microwaves are reflected by metal, The material and shape of the containers used affect cooking results and times. Heat distribution is more even in round and oval shaped flat containers than in rectangular containers, providing better results.
Suitable containers for microwave use Earthenware – Plastic microwave containers Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath an all-over glaze. These are readily available from retail outlets. Danger of burning. Wear oven gloves when removing earthenware dishes from the oven. Styrofoam containers can be used for short, timed warming and reheating of food.
Suitable containers for microwave use Unsuitable ,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 the microwave oven. Metal Metal reflects microwaves and obstructs the cooking process.
Suitable containers for microwave use – For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminium foil may be used to mask wingtips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the programme. Make sure that the aluminium foil is at least 2 cm from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls. – Metal meat skewers or clamps should only be used if they are very small in comparison to the size of the cut of meat.
Suitable containers for microwave use Placing the dish in the oven Cover A cover: – 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. ^ Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1. ^ The dish containing the food should always be placed in the middle of the glass tray.
Suitable containers for microwave use ,The cover can only withstand temperatures up to 110 °C. Higher temperatures (e. g. those used for grilling and Fan plus) 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.
Tips on saving energy – Remove any accessories from the oven that you do not require for cooking. – The factory default setting "P i – S 0" for the time of day display gives the lowest possible energy consumption. – Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to do so in the recipe or the cooking chart. – With the factory default setting "P 7 – S 0" the oven interior lighting switches off automatically after 15 seconds. It can be switched on again at any time by touching I.
