Warning and safety instructions
6
 For the sake of simplicity, the microwave combination oven will
subsequently be referred to as the “oven”.
This oven complies with all current local and national safety
requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to personal
injury and damage to property.
Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before
using the oven. They contain important information on safety,
installation, use and maintenance. This prevents both personal
injury and damage to the oven.
In accordance with standard IEC/EN60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the
chapter on installing the oven as well as the safety instructions and
warnings.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.

Warning and safety instructions
7
Appropriate use
 This oven is intended for domestic use and use in other similar
environments.
 The oven is not intended for outdoor use.
 It is intended for cooking food – and, in particular, for baking,
roasting, grilling, reheating, defrosting and drying food – in domestic
settings only.
All other types of use are not permitted.
 Fire hazard due to flammable materials.
If flammable items are dried using microwave power, the moisture in
the items will evaporate. This could cause the materials to dry out
and possibly self-ignite.
Never use the oven to store or dry items which could ignite easily.
 This oven may only be used by people with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they are supervised whilst using it.
They may only use it unsupervised if they have been shown how to
use it in a safe manner. They must be able to recognise and
understand the dangers of misuse.
 The oven compartment is equipped with special lamps to cope
with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical
resistance, abrasion resistance and vibration). These special lamps
must only be used for the purpose for which they are intended. They
are not suitable for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be
fitted by a Miele authorised technician or by the Miele Customer
Service Department.

Warning and safety instructions
8
Safety with children
 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the oven
unless they are constantly supervised.
 Children aged 8 and older may only use the oven without
supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner.
Children must be able to understand and recognise the possible
dangers caused by incorrect operation.
 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the oven
unsupervised.
 Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the oven. Never
allow children to play with the oven.
 Risk of suffocation due to packaging material. Whilst playing,
children may become entangled in packaging material (such as
plastic wrapping) or pull it over their head, presenting the risk of
suffocation.
Keep packaging material away from children.
 Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces. 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.
Do not let children touch the oven when it is in operation.
 Risk of injury from the open door.
The oven door can support a maximum weight of 8kg. Children
could injure themselves on an open door.
Do not let children sit on the open door, lean against it or swing on it.

Warning and safety instructions
9
Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
 Damage to the oven can compromise your safety. Check the oven
for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged oven.
 Reliable and safe operation of this oven can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 Operating a damaged oven can result in microwave leakage and
present a hazard to the user. Do not use the oven if:
– the door is warped.
– the door hinges are loose.
– holes or cracks are visible in the casing, the door or the oven
compartment walls.
 The electrical safety of this oven can only be guaranteed when
correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is fulfilled. If in doubt, the electrical installation should
be checked by a qualified electrician.
 The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the oven must match the mains electricity supply in order to avoid
the risk of damage to the oven. Compare this before connecting the
appliance to the mains. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
 Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance. Do not use these to connect the
oven to the mains electricity supply.
 For safety reasons, the oven may only be used when it has been
fully installed.
 The oven must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).

Warning and safety instructions
10
 Risk of injury due to electric shock. Any contact with live
connections or tampering with the electrical or mechanical
components of the oven will endanger your safety and may lead to
the oven malfunctioning.
Do not open the oven housing under any circumstances.
 While the oven is under warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty will be invalidated.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the oven when original
Miele spare parts are used. Faulty components must only be
replaced by original spare parts.
 If the oven is delivered without a power connection cable, a
special cable must be installed by a Miele authorised service
technician (see “Installation”, “Electrical connection”).
 If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a
special connection cable by a Miele authorised service technician (see
“Installation”, “Electrical connection”).
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the oven must
be completely disconnected from the mains electricity supply. To
ensure this:
– disconnect the mains fuse, or
– completely unscrew the screw-out fuse (in countries where this is
applicable), or
– pull out the plug (if one is present) at the wall socket. To do this,
pull the plug and not the mains connection cable.
 The oven requires a sufficient supply of cool air for efficient operation.
Make sure that the supply of cool air is not hindered in any way (e.g. by
fitting heat insulation strips in the housing unit). Furthermore, the required
supply of cool air must not be excessively heated by other heat sources
(e.g. solid fuel stoves).

Warning and safety instructions
11
 If the oven is built in behind a furniture front (e.g. a door), do not
close the furniture door while the oven is in use. Heat and moisture
can build up behind the closed furniture door. This can result in
damage to the oven, housing unit and floor. Leave the furniture front/
door open until the oven has cooled down completely.
Correct use
 Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces. The oven gets hot during
operation. You could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven
compartment, accessories or food.
Wear oven gloves when placing hot food in the oven or removing it
and when adjusting oven shelves, for example, in a hot oven
compartment.
 Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven
could catch fire. Do not use the oven to heat up the room.
 Oils and fats can ignite if allowed to overheat. Never leave the
oven unattended when cooking with oil or fats. Never attempt to put
out oil or fat fires with water. Switch the oven off and extinguish the
flames by leaving the door closed.
 Grilling food for excessively long cooking durations can cause it to
dry out with the risk of catching fire. Do not exceed the
recommended cooking durations.
 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.
Do not exceed recommended grilling times when using grill
functions. Do not use the Microwave function to dry flowers or
herbs or to crisp up bread or rolls. Never use grill functions to dry
flowers, herbs or the like. Use the Fan plus or Conventional
heat function and always ensure this type of procedure is
supervised.

Warning and safety instructions
12
 If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high
temperatures can cause the alcohol to evaporate. The vapour can
catch fire on hot heating elements.
 When using residual heat to keep food warm, corrosion from high
air humidity and condensation can occur in the oven. This can also
cause damage to the control panel, worktop and surrounding
kitchen furniture. Keep the oven on and select the lowest
temperature available for the selected function. The cooling fan will
then continue to run automatically.
 Food which is stored in the oven compartment or left in it to be kept
warm can dry out and the moisture released can lead to corrosion
damage in the oven. Always cover food that is left in the oven to keep
warm.
 A build-up of heat can cause damage to the oven.
Never line the floor of the oven compartment with aluminum foil or
oven liners.
If you wish to place crockery on the floor of the oven compartment
during cooking, or place crockery on the floor of the oven
compartment to heat it up, you can do so, but only with the Fan
plus or Eco Fan heat function, without the Booster function.
 The oven compartment floor can become damaged by items
being pushed around on it. When placing pots, pans or crockery on
the oven compartment floor, ensure that you avoid pushing them
around.
 Risk of injury caused by steam. Pouring a cold liquid onto a hot
surface creates steam, which can cause severe scalding. The sudden
temperature change can also cause damage to hot enamelled
surfaces. Never pour cold liquids directly onto hot enamelled surfaces.
 The oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting items. Items can
get extremely hot and there is a risk of burning when the item is
removed from the oven.

Warning and safety instructions
13
 It is important that the temperature in the food being cooked is
evenly distributed and sufficiently high.
This can be achieved by stirring or turning the food, and observing a
sufficiently long standing time (see charts), which should be added
to the time needed for reheating, defrosting or cooking.
During the standing time, the temperature is distributed evenly in the
food.
 When heating food, and in particular liquids, using the
Microwave function, the boiling point may be reached without
the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly
throughout. This boiling delay can result in the liquid boiling over
explosively. Take care when taking the container out of the oven, as
the hot liquid can cause severe scalding. Under certain
circumstances, the pressure can be so high that the door opens
automatically.
Stir liquids well before heating. After heating, wait at least
20seconds before removing the container from the oven
compartment. In addition, a glass rod or similar item, if available, can
be placed in the container during heating.
 Risk of injury caused by hot food. When heating food up, the heat
is created directly in the food itself. For this reason the crockery will
remain cooler than the food (except when using oven-proof
stoneware). The crockery is only warmed by the heat of the food.
Before serving, always check the temperature of the actual food
itself after taking it out of the oven. The temperature of the container
is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. This
is particularly important when preparing food for babies,
children, and the elderly or infirm. After reheating food, especially
food for babies and small children, stir the food or shake the
container and check that the temperature does not pose any danger
of burning. Double check after it has been left to stand.

Warning and safety instructions
14
 Risk of injury from increased pressure in closed containers or
bottles. Pressure can build up during reheating in sealed containers
or bottles, causing them to explode.
Never cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers or bottles.
Open containers beforehand. In the case of baby bottles, the screw
top and teat must be removed.
 If you cook eggs without their shells, the yolks could explode due
to the resulting pressure.
Prick the yolk several times before cooking to avoid this.
 Eggs heated in their shells can burst, even after they have been
taken out of the oven compartment.
Eggs can only be cooked in their shells in a specially designed egg-
boiling device. Do not reheat hard boiled eggs using the
Microwave function.
 Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage,
potatoes and aubergines can burst when heated or cooked.
Pierce or score the skin of these types of food several times to allow
steam to escape.
 Do not use thermometers containing mercury or liquid as these
are not suitable for use with very high temperatures and break very
easily.
Only use the Miele food probe supplied with the appliance to
measure the temperature of the food.
 Cushions or pads filled with cherry kernels, gel, etc., such as
those used in aromatherapy, can ignite when heated even after they
have been removed from the oven compartment.
Do not heat these up in the oven.
 Containers and lids with hollow handles or knobs can collect
moisture in the hollow spaces. When the moisture evaporates,
pressure can build up and the item can explode. If the hollow recess
is sufficiently ventilated, the item can be used.
Do not use crockery with hollow knobs or handles when using the
Microwave function.

Warning and safety instructions
15
 Non-microwave-safe plastic dishes can suffer damage or damage
the oven if used with the Microwave function and microwave
functions.
Do not use any crockery or cutlery made from or containing metal,
aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics,
wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips, or plastic or paper-covered
wire ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims, or plastic pots with the
foil lid only partially removed (see the requirements specified for
crockery in the section on microwave operation).
 Plastic dishes that are not suitable for use in an oven will melt and
may ignite at high temperatures, and can damage the oven.
Use only plastic dishes that are suitable for use in an oven when
using functions that do not use microwave power. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
 Fire hazard due to containers made of flammable materials.
Plastic disposable containers must meet the requirements specified
for crockery in the section on microwave operation.
Do not leave the oven unattended when heating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other inflammable
materials.
 Heat-retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminium foil
that reflects microwave radiation. This reflected energy can, in turn,
cause the outer paper covering to become so hot that it ignites.
Do not use heat-retaining packaging, such as bags for grilled chicken,
for warming food with functions that use microwave power.
 If the oven is used without food or the food is loaded incorrectly
when using the Microwave function or functions that use
microwave power, the oven can become damaged.
Do not use any functions that use microwave power to preheat
crockery or to dry herbs.
Instead, use the Fan plus or Conventional heat function.
 Heating up food in closed containers, such as tins or sealed jars,
will result in an increase in pressure, which can cause them to
explode. Do not heat up unopened tins or jars of food in the oven.

Warning and safety instructions
16
 Risk of injury from the open door. You could bang into the open
door or trip over it. Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
 The door can support a maximum load of 8kg. Do not lean or sit
on an open 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 following applies to stainless steel surfaces:
 Adhesives will damage the stainless steel surface and cause it to
lose its dirt-repellent protective coating. Do not use sticky notes,
adhesive tape or other types of adhesive on the stainless steel
surface.
 Magnets can cause scratches. Do not use the stainless steel
surface as a magnetic notice board.

Warning and safety instructions
17
Cleaning and care
 Risk of injury due to electric shock. The steam from a steam
cleaning appliance could reach live electrical components and cause
a short circuit. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
 Scratches on the door glass can cause the glass to break. Do not
use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal tools to
clean the door glass.
 Try to prevent the interior walls being splashed with food
containing salt. If this does happen, wipe it away thoroughly to avoid
corrosion to stainless steel surfaces inside the oven compartment.
 In warm, moist environments, there is a higher probability of pest
infestations (such as cockroaches). Ensure the oven and the area
surrounding it are always kept clean.
Damage caused by pests is not covered by the warranty.
Accessories
 Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used,
warranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.
 Only use the Miele food probe supplied with the appliance. If it is
faulty, it must be replaced with a new original Miele food probe.
 The plastic on the food probe can melt at very high temperatures.
Do not use the food probe when using the grill functions. Do not
store the food probe in the oven compartment when it is not being
used.

Caring for the environment
18
Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible (by law, depending on
country) for deleting any personal data
that may be stored on the appliance
being disposed of. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored prior to
disposal.
