Read all instructions before installing or using the oven for the first time. Only use the appliance for its intended purpose.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Use This appliance is intended for residential use only. Use only as described in these operating instructions. This appliance is not intended for outdoor use. The oven is intended for domestic use only: cooking, baking, roasting, broiling, canning, defrosting and reheating of food. Only use this appliance for its intended purpose. Risk of fire! Do not use the speed oven to store or dry items which could ignite easily.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Children As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children. Do not leave children unattended: Children should not be alone or unsupervised in the area where the oven is installed. Do not allow them to sit or stand on the appliance. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Technical safety 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed within cabinetry. To avoid damaging the range, make sure that the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the building's power supply before connecting the appliance. When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range to electricity.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until the appliance has completely cooled down. Do not install kitchen cabinets above the range, since reaching over a hot stovetop to access the cabinets can result in burns.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard. 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will become void.

Microwave power How it works Advantages 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. – Food can generally be cooked with little liquid or oil. In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the cooking container being used.
Selecting cookware 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! Microwaves are reflected by metal. 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 They pass through glass, porcelain, plastic and cardboard.
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 heatresistant up to at least 230°F (110°C).
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.
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.
Selecting cookware Placing the dish in the Speed Oven 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. Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1. The dish containing the food should always be placed in the middle of the glass tray.
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.
Energy saving tips – Remove any accessories from the oven that you do not require for cooking. – The default setting for the Time of Day display Time - Display - Off will consume the least amount of energy. – If possible, do not open the door during a program.

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.
Roast Always observe the USDA guidelines for 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 power levels for the entire roasting time: – For meat and fish: max. Level 3 – For poultry: max. Level 2 This combination program is not suitable for cooking roast beef or tenderloins.
Roast Temperature Tips 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. – 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.

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. and Ready at cannot be set because the total time depends on how long it takes for the core temperature to be reached.
Roast Displaying the core temperature Using residual heat As soon as the time remaining appears, you can also display the actual core temperature. 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. Select Change.
