Oven controls Clock/timer Temperature selector (features will vary depending on model) The clock/timer is operated via the display and the V, OK and W buttons. Use the temperature selector to select the temperature for the cooking processes. Display The display shows the time of day or your settings. It goes dark if settings are not being entered. Please refer to "Clock/Timer" for more information. Buttons These ovens have push buttons.
Features Model numbers Items supplied A list of the ovens described in these operating instructions can be found on the back page. The oven is supplied with: H2x6xE H2x6xB Cooker = Oven + integrated hob controls Oven – the operating and installation instructions for using the oven, – screws for securing your cooker or oven in the housing unit, – various accessories. The descriptions of the oven functions apply to ovens and also cookers with integrated hob controls.
Features Side runners Side runners for trays, racks and accessory dishes are fitted on either side of the oven cavity for shelf levels µ. Each level consists of two rails, one above the other. Baking tray, universal tray and rack with non-tip notches Baking tray HBB51: Universal tray HUBB51: – The accessories (e.g. the rack) are pushed into the oven between the rails, – FlexiClip telescopic runners (depending on model) are fitted on the top rail.
Features FlexiClip telescopic runners HFC50 (optional accessory) The FlexiClip telescopic runners can be used on the three lower shelf levels. Each shelf level can be drawn right out of the oven individually to give a good overview of cooking in progress. Push the FlexiClip telescopic runners right into the oven compartment before placing accessories on them.
Features Because the FlexiClip runners sit on the top rail of the side runners the gap between the level the FlexiClip runners are on and the one above is smaller than if, for instance, racks were fitted on each level. Cooking results will be affected if the gap is too small. If you are using the universal tray with a rack on top of it: ^ Slide the universal tray together with the rack onto the FlexiClip runners.
Features Fitting the FlexiClip runners ,Danger of burning. Make sure the oven heating elements are switched off and cool. Each level is made up of two rails. The FlexiClip telescopic runners fit on the top rail of these two rails. The FlexiClip runner with the Miele logo is fitted on the right. Do not extend the FlexiClip runners when fitting them or taking them out. If the FlexiClip runners are difficult to pull out after fitting, you may need to pull firmly on them once to release them.
Features Removing the FlexiClip runners Anti-splash insert HGBB51 ^ Push the FlexiClip runner in all the way. ^ Push down on the tab at the front of the FlexiClip runner (1.). The anti-splash insert fits in the universal tray below the rack. The juices from the food being grilled or roasted collect under the insert. This prevents them from spitting and making the oven dirty. The juices can then be used for making gravy and sauces. The enamelled surface has been treated with PerfectClean.
Features Baking stone HBS60 The baking stone is ideal for items which need a well baked base such as pizza, quiche, bread, bread rolls and savoury snacks. The baking stone is made from heat retaining fire brick and is glazed. Place it directly on the rack. A paddle made of untreated wood is supplied with it for placing food on the baking stone and taking it off. Handle HEG The handle makes it easier to take the universal tray, baking tray and rack out of the oven, or to put them into it.
Features Catalytic enamelled liners Miele microfibre cloth – Side liners These are fitted behind the side runners in the sides of the oven and help keep the oven walls clean. Light soiling and fingerprints can be easily removed with the microfibre cloth. – Roof liner This is fitted above the top heat/grill element and helps keep the roof of the oven clean. – Back panel This should be replaced if the catalytic enamel has become ineffective due to incorrect use or very heavy soiling.
Features Oven controls Cooling fan (features will vary depending on model) The cooling fan will come on automatically when a cooking programme is started. The cooling fan mixes hot air from the oven cavity with cool room air before venting it out into the kitchen through vents located between the appliance door and the control panel. The oven controls are used to operate the various cooking functions for baking, roasting and grilling.
Features PerfectClean treated surfaces Catalytic enamelled surfaces PerfectClean surfaces have very good non-stick properties and are much easier to keep clean than conventional enamel surfaces, if cleaned regularly. The back panel is coated with catalytic enamel. Soiling from oil and fat is burnt off this surface when very high temperatures are used in the oven. Food can be taken off these surfaces easily, and soiling from baking and roasting is simple to remove.
Using for the first time Before using for the first time ,The oven must not be operated until it has been correctly installed in its housing unit. ^ Press and release the function and temperature selectors if they are retracted. The time of day can only be changed when the function selector is at 0. ^ On models with a clock/timer, enter the correct time of day. Setting the time of day for the first time The time of day is shown in 24 hour clock format.
Using for the first time Heating up the oven for the first time New ovens can give off an unpleasant smell on first use. Heating up the oven for at least 1 hour with nothing in it will get rid of this smell. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated during this operation. Close doors to other rooms to prevent the smell spreading throughout the house. ^ Clean the oven interior with a clean sponge and a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid or a clean damp microfibre cloth.
Overview of functions Your oven has a range of oven functions for preparing food. Depending on the function selected, different heating elements are switched on and sometimes combined with the fan (see details in brackets). Conventional heat V (Top heat/grill element + bottom heat element) For baking and roasting traditional recipes, preparing soufflés and cooking at low temperatures. If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven temperature for Conventional heat 10 °C lower than that recommended.
Overview of functions Rapid heat-up S Fan grill \ (Top heat/grill element + ring heat element + fan) (Top heat/grill element + fan) For pre-heating the oven quickly. The oven function required must then be selected. Fan plus U (Ring heat element + fan) This function is used for baking and roasting on different levels at the same time. A lower temperature can be selected than when using Conventional heat V, as the fan distributes the heat to the food straight away. For grilling thicker cuts of meat (e.
Tips on saving energy Cooking ^ Remove any accessories from the oven that you do not require for cooking. ^ Pre-heat the oven only if instructed to do so in the recipe or the cooking chart. ^ Avoid opening the door during cooking. ^ In general, if a range of temperatures is given, it is best to select the lower temperature and to check the food after the shortest given time.
Tips on saving energy Using residual heat ^ The temperature in cooking programmes using temperatures above 140 °C which take longer than 30 minutes to cook can be turned down to the lowest possible temperature about 5 minutes before the end of cooking in order to make use of residual heat. The cooling fan and, depending on cooking function the hot air fan, will remain on. Do not switch the oven off (see "Safety instructions").
Operation Using the oven Cooling fan ^ Place the food in the oven. The cooling fan will continue to run for a while after a cooking process to prevent moisture building up in the oven, on the control panel or on the oven housing unit. ^ Select the required oven function with the function selector.

Low temperature cooking This method is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when a tender result is required. First sear the meat all over at a high temperature on the hob in order to seal it. Then place the meat in the pre-heated oven where the low temperature and long cooking time will cook it to perfection and ensure it is very tender. The meat relaxes and the juices inside start to circulate evenly throughout the meat to reach the outer layers. This has very tender and succulent results.
Low temperature cooking After cooking Because the cooking and core temperatures are very low: – Meat can be carved straight from the oven. It does not need to rest. – The cooking result will not be affected if the meat is left in the oven after the programme has finished. It can be kept warm until you serve it. – The meat is an ideal temperature to eat straight away. Serve on pre-heated plates with very hot sauce or gravy to prevent it cooling down too quickly.
Grilling ,Danger of burning. Trays and racks Grill with the oven door closed. If you grill with the door open, hot air will escape from the oven instead of being cooled by the cooling fan. The controls will get hot. Functions Grill Y For grilling larger quantities of thin cuts (e.g. steaks) and browning baked dishes. The whole of the top heating / grill element will get hot and glow red. Fan grill \ For grilling larger items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.
Grilling Notes on the grilling chart Testing to see if cooked Temperature 6 One way of finding out how well a piece of meat has been cooked is to press down on it with a spoon: 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. Pre-heating Always pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes with the door closed.
Grilling Preparing food for grilling Grilling Trim the meat. Do not season meat with salt before grilling as this draws the juices out. ^ Select the required oven function and the temperature. Add a little oil to lean meat if necessary. Do not use other types of fat as they can burn and cause smoke. Clean fish in the normal way.

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.
Drying food Drying is a traditional method of preserving fruit, certain vegetables and herbs. It is important that fruit and vegetables are ripe and not bruised before they are dried. ^ Prepare the food for drying – Peel and core apples, and cut into slices 0.5 cm thick. – Stone plums, if necessary. – Peel, core and cut pears into thick wedges. – Peel and slice bananas. – Clean mushrooms and cut them in half or slice them. – Remove parsley and dill from the stem.
Frozen food/Ready meals Tips Cakes, pizza, baguettes – Large frozen items such as cakes, pizzas or baguettes cover an extensive area of the baking tray or universal tray. The temperature difference if large frozen items are cooked in these trays can cause the tray to distort in such a way that it cannot be removed from the oven when it is hot. Further use will make the distortion worse. Place this type of food on baking parchment on the rack to prevent the risk of this happening.

Useful tips – Soiling caused by spilt juices and cake mixtures is best removed whilst the oven is still warm. Exercise caution and make sure the oven is not too hot - danger of burning.
Cleaning and care Stubborn soiling (does not apply to the FlexiClip runners) Spilt fruit and roasting juices may cause lasting discolouration or matt patches on enamelled surfaces. This discolouration is permanent but will not affect the efficiency of the finish. Do not try to remove this discolouration! Clean these following the instructions given here. ^ Baked on deposits can be removed with a glass scraper or a non-abrasive stainless steel spiral pad. Oven spray will damage catalytic enamel.
Cleaning and care Stubborn soiling on the FlexiClip runners Never attempt to clean FlexiClip telescopic runners in a dishwasher. This would remove the special grease which is essential for their smooth functioning. For stubborn surface soiling or if the bearings become sticky with spilled fruit juices proceed as follows: ^ Soak the FlexiClip runners for approx. 10 minutes in a solution of hot water and washing-up liquid. If necessary use the back of a washing-up sponge to remove the soiling.
Cleaning and care Removing oil and grease splashes ^ Remove any accessories from the oven including the side rails. ^ Before starting the cleaning process, remove any large deposits of soiling from the inside of the door and the PerfectClean surfaces to avoid them burning on. ^ Select the Fan plus U function and a temperature of 250 °C. ^ Then heat the empty oven for at least an hour. The length of time required will depend on the level of soiling.
Cleaning and care Removing the door Do not attempt to take the door off the retainers when it is in the horizontal position as the retainers will spring back against the oven. Do not use the handle to pull the door off the retainers as the handle could break. ^ Raise the door up till it rests open. The oven door is connected to the hinges by retainers. Before removing the door from the retainers, the locking clamps on both hinges have to be released. ^ Open the door fully.
Cleaning and care Dismantling the door The door is sealed all round to prevent air in the oven cavity from getting into it. In the unlikely event that soiling has worked its way in between the glass panes, the door can be dismantled in order to clean in between the panes. Take particular care as scratches can damage the glass. When cleaning the glass panes do not use abrasive cleaning agents, hard sponges or brushes and do not use sharp metal tools or scrapers.
Cleaning and care ^ Dry all parts with a soft cloth. Then reassemble the door carefully: ^ Gently lift the inner pane up and out of the plastic strip. ^ Slide the middle pane in slightly and then refit the seal. Then push the pane right in. ^ Pull the middle pane out. Take care not to dislodge the seals that are fitted to the right and left hand side of the pane next to the guides. These seals are designed to hold the glass pane securely in the frame.
Cleaning and care ^ Fit the side seals for the inner panel in the grooves provided. ^ Fit the trim together with its seal over the panes. If the seal is fitted correctly hot air from the oven cavity will not be able to get into the door. ^ Fit the middle pane with the matt printed surface facing downwards. Make sure that the side seals do not slip and push the pane in as far as it will go. 80 ^ Refit the guides and screw the trim firmly back in position.
Cleaning and care Refitting the door ^ Open the door fully. It is essential that the locking clamps lock securely when the door is refitted after cleaning. Otherwise the door could could work loose from the retainers and be damaged. ^ Hold the door securely at both sides and carefully fit it back into the hinge retainers. ^ Flip both locking clamps back up as far as they will go into a horizontal position.
