Your oven has a wide range of Auto-
matic programmes to enable you to
achieve excellent results with ease.
Each programme contains information
such as cooking function, temperature
and duration.
All you have to do is select the Auto-
matic programme and when baking
with an Automatic programme you can
also select whether you want your cake
to have a normal or darker finish.
The following are available:
–Auto roast (oven function, depending
on model)
–Slow cooking
–Cakes
–Cookies/muffins
–Bread
–Bread mix
–Bread rolls
–Pizza
– Meat
– Poultry
– Fish
– Bakes/gratin
– Frozen food
Sample recipes for different Automatic
programmes are given at the end of
this booklet.

To use an Automatic
programme
^"Select c.
^Use the ;or ?sensor to scroll
through the list until the option you
want is highlighted.
^Use the OK sensor to select the
option you want, e.g. Cakes.
A list of different cake options will
appear in the display.
^Select the relevant sub-menu for the
dish you want to cook (e.g. Apple
tart).
^Next you need to enter your specific
cooking requirements, following the
instructions in the display.
The degree of doneness, browning
level etc. are shown by a seven
segment bar. The middle setting is
displayed by a filled-out segment in the
middle of the bar.
NH H H TTTTT H H HN
To change the setting, move the
filled-out segment to the left or right
with the ;or ?sensor.
You can delay the start by selecting the
"Start later" option.
Entries made are shown in the display.
To finish an Automatic programme early
you have to switch the oven off.
If by the end of an Automatic
programme the food is not cooked
enough, select the "Cont. cooking"
function.
Notes on using these
programmes
–When using the Automatic
programmes the recipes provided
are designed as a guide only.
You can use them for other similar
recipes, including those using
different quantities.
–The oven interior should be at room
temperature before starting an Auto-
matic programme.
–Some programmes require the
addition of liquid or vegetables
during cooking. You will be
prompted by a message in the
display when this needs to be done
(e.g. "Add liquid at ...").
– Some programmes require a
pre-heating phase before food is
placed in the oven. A prompt will
appear to tell you when to add the
food.
–For frozen food follow the instructions
in the display.

Using the food probe enables the
roasting process to be monitored
simply and reliably.
How the food probe works
The metal tip of the food probe is
inserted into the food. There is a
temperature sensor in the metal tip
which measures the core temperature
of the food during cooking. The rise in
the core temperature reflects the extent
to which the food is cooked.
You can programme the core
temperature to be lower or higher,
depending on whether you want your
meat to be medium or well done.
The core temperature can be set within
a range of 30 to 99 °C. Refer to the
Roasting chart for the core temperature
range applicable for different types of
meat.
The duration for roasting meat by
temperature using the probe is similar
to the duration when cooking by time.
Applications
Apart from Automatic programmes, the
food probe can be used with the
following functions:
ßAuto roast
ßFan plus
ßConventional heat
ßFan grill
Food probe
7

Important notes about using
the food probe
Please note:
–You can place the meat in a pot or
on the rack in the universal tray with
the anti-splash insert (if present).
–The metal tip of the food probe must
be fully inserted into the centre of the
food.
–When cooking poultry, insert the
metal tip into the thickest part of the
breast.
– Do not let the metal tip touch any
bones or insert it into a particularly
fatty area of the meat. If fat or bone
come into contact with the probe,
this can lead to the oven being
switched off too early.
– If the meat is very heavily marbled
with fat, select the highest core
temperature given in the roasting
chart.
–When using roasting bags or
aluminium foil, insert the probe
through the bag or foil into the centre
of the meat. You can also place the
meat, with the food probe inserted,
inside the foil. Follow the roasting
bag / aluminium foil manufacturer's
instructions.
To use the food probe
^Insert the metal tip fully into the food.
^Place the food in the oven.
^Insert the plug of the food probe into
the socket until you feel it engage.
^Close the door.
^Select the oven function or Automatic
programme.
^Alter the recommended temperature
if necessary
Food probe
8

^Alter the recommended core
temperature of 60°C, if required.
For Automatic programmes, the core
temperature is pre-set.
You can also delay the start of the
cooking programme to a later time.
Select the "Start time" option or if using
an Automatic programme, the "Start
later" option. The duration of the
cooking programme is about the same
as if you were cooking the food without
using the food probe.
When the core temperature selected
has been reached,
– the oven switches off automatically.
– "Prog. finished" will appear in the
display.
– a buzzer will sound.
If the food is not yet cooked sufficiently,
insert the food probe into another place
and repeat the programme.
Making use of residual heat
The heating in the oven switches off
shortly before the end of the cooking
programme. The residual heat in the
oven is sufficient to complete the
cooking process.
Using the residual heat in the oven
saves energy.
"Use residual heat" will appear in the
display to show that the oven is in
energy save mode. The current core
temperature of the food will no longer
be shown.
The cooling fan continues to run, as
does the hot air fan if a "fan" setting has
been chosen.

Refer to the baking charts for
suggestions of temperatures, shelf
levels and cooking durations. These
embrace a range of different baking
tins, quantities and cooking
traditions.
Handling and preparing food
correctly is essential for maintaining
good health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc
until they are golden brown. Do not
overcook them.
Bakeware
Please take into account the material of
your bakeware in your choice of oven
function:
Fan plus U, Intensive bake \
Any heat-resistant material can be
used.
Conventional heat V
Dark metal, enamel or aluminium
baking tins with a matt finish, as well as
heat-resistant glass and ceramic
dishes can be used.
Bright, shiny metal tins result in uneven
or poor browning and in some cases
cakes might not cook properly.
Baking parchment
Because of their PerfectClean
anti-stick surface the baking tray and
the universal tray do not need to be
greased or lined with baking
parchment for baking.
Baked goods are easily removed when
done.
Baking parchment is only necessary
when baking:
–Anything with a high salt content
(e. g. pretzels, bread sticks),
because sodium can damage the
PerfectClean surface.
– Meringues or biscuits with a high
egg-white content, because they
are more likely to stick.
Universal tray
When baking cakes with fresh fruit
toppings and deep sponge cakes
place the tin in the universal tray to
catch any spillages and keep the oven
cleaner.
Loaf tins
Place loaf tins with the longer side
across the width of the oven for
optimum heat distribution and even
results.
Baking tips
10

Notes about the charts
The figures in square brackets relate
to appliances with three shelf levels.
Temperature, baking duration
To achieve even results without
over-browning the food,
–always select the lowest
temperature given in the chart.
Do not set a temperature higher than
that recommended. Increasing the
temperature may reduce the cooking
time, but will lead to uneven
browning, and unsatisfactory
cooking results.
– Check if the food is cooked at the
end of the shortest time quoted.
To check if a cake is ready, insert a
wooden skewer into the centre.
It is ready if the skewer comes out
clean, without dough or crumbs
sticking to it.
Shelf level
The shelf levels are counted from the
bottom of the oven upwards (1 =
lowest, 5 = highest).
A maximum of two trays can be baked
together in an oven with three shelf
levels.
Number
of trays
Shelf level(s)
U12
2 1 and 3 [1 and 2]
3 1,3and5*[–]
O1 1 or 2
V1 1 or 2
* When baking moist cakes, bread etc
do use more than two baking tins at
the same time.
Frozen food
When baking frozen products such as
cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the
lowest temperature quoted on the
manufacturer's packaging. Bake on a
layer of baking parchment placed on
the rack. Cooking large frozen items on
the baking tray or the universal tray can
cause the metal to distort. This
distortion would increase with
subsequent use.
Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes can
be cooked on the universal tray. Place
them on baking parchment and select
the lowest temperature quoted on the
manufacturer's packaging. Turn several
times during cooking.

Subject Notes
Function
Auto roast [You can also use Conventional heat V.
Containers
Any heat-resistant
containers
The Miele Gourmet oven dish, roasting pans with a lid,
ovenproof china or glass, roasting bags, dishes made from
earthenware or cast iron, the universal tray, the rack on top of
the universal tray. If you have the anti-splash insert, use it in
the universal tray.
We recommend roasting in a covered pot, as
–this ensures that sufficient stock remains for making gravy.
–and the oven stays cleaner, too.
Shelf level
1or2
On ovens with 3 shelf levels, use shelf level 1 or 2, depending
on the height of the meat.
Pre-heating
not required
Place the roasting pan on the rack into a cold oven.
Exception: roast beef / fillet.
Temperature
Please refer to the
Roasting chart.
– Do not select a higher temperature than that suggested.
The meat will become brown, but will not be cooked
properly.
– With Auto roast [, set the temperature 20°C less than for
Conventional heat V.
– For cuts which weigh 3 kg or more, set the temperature
approx. 10 °C lower than that given in the Roasting chart.
Roasting will take longer at the lower temperature, but will
be more even.
–For roasting directly on the rack, set the temperature
about 20°C lower than for roasting in a covered pot.
Roasting times
Please refer to the
Roasting chart.
To calculate the roasting time: The traditional British method is
to allow 15 to 20 minutes per lb/450 grammes, according to
type of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes, adjusting the length of
time as roasting proceeds to obtain the required result.
Roasting tips
15

Useful tips
Browning
Browning only occurs towards the end
of the roasting time. Remove the lid
about halfway through the roasting time
if a more intensive browning result is
desired.
Standing time
At the end of the programme, take the
roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium
foil and leave to stand for about
10 minutes. This helps retain juices
when the meat is carved.
Roasting poultry
For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten
minutes before the end of cooking time
with slightly salted water.
Frozen meat
Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat
should be thoroughly defrosted before
roasting.
Roasting tips
16

For ovens with 5 shelf levels, use shelf level 2.
For ovens with 3 shelf levels, use shelf level 1 or 2, depending on the height of the
meat.

is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or
lamb when a tender result is required.
Meat cooked at a low temperature over
a long period will be tender and
succulent.
First the meat needs to be seared all
over at a high temperature on the hob
in order to seal it.
The cooking process is then continued
in the oven on the Slow cooking
programme. The meat juices inside the
joint start to circulate evenly throughout
the meat to reach the outer layers.
This gives very tender and succulent
results.
Using the Slow cooking
programme
^Select Slow cooking from the main
menu or from the list of Automatic
programmes.
^Follow the messages given in the
display until the programme starts.
Place the universal tray with the rack
on top in the oven for the pre-heating
phase.
^Whilst the oven is pre-heating, sear
the meat thoroughly on the hob.
^Then place the meat on the rack and
insert the food probe into a fleshy
part of the meat.
Refer to the section "Food probe".
^Place the rack together with the
universal tray on the shelf level
specified.
,The top heating element/grill
element is hot. Danger of burning.
At the end of the programme the
message "Programme finished" will
appear in the display and the buzzer
will sound.
If the meat is not cooked to your
satisfaction, you can extend the
cooking programme.

Tips
Use lean meat which has been
correctly hung and trimmed. Bones
should be removed before cooking.
For searing use a suitable cooking oil
that can withstand high temperatures.
Do not cover meat during cooking.
Cooking takes between 2-4 hours
depending on the size and amount of
meat and on the degree of doneness
and browning required.
Meat can be carved straight from the
oven. It does not need to rest.
Useful tips
Because it has been cooked using low
temperatures,
– meat can be kept warm quite safely
in the oven until it is served. This will
not affect results in any way.
– 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.
