This appliance conforms to current
safety requirements. Inappropriate
use can, however, lead to personal
injury and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the appliance, please
read these instructions carefully
before using it for the first time.
They contain important notes on
installation, safety, use and
maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and ensure that new users are
familiar with the content. Pass them
on to any future owner.
Correct application
~This oven is designed for domestic
use and for use in similar environments
by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed
& breakfasts and other typical living
quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial
facilities within hotels, motels or bed &
breakfasts.
~This oven is designed to bake,
roast, grill, cook, defrost, dry fruit etc.
Any other usage is at the owner's risk.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage
resulting from incorrect or improper use
or operation.
~This oven is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are supervised
whilst using it or have been given
instruction concerning its use by a
person responsible for their safety.
Safety with children
~This appliance is not a toy! To
prevent the risk of injury or damage, do
not let children play with the appliance
or its controls.
~Older children may only use the
oven when its operation has been
clearly explained to them and they are
able to use it safely, recognising the
dangers of misuse.

Technical safety
~Installation, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
~Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. A damaged appliance could
be dangerous.
~The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system. It is
most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested
regularly and, where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~Before connecting the appliance,
make sure that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage and connected
load) match the mains electricity
supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the
appliance. Consult a competent person
if in doubt.
~Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
~For safety reasons, this appliance
may only be used when it has been
built in.
~Never open the housing of the
appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.
~While the appliance is under
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the warranty will be
invalidated.
Warning and Safety instructions
7

~During installation, maintenance and
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
–the mains fuse is disconnected,
–the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
–it is switched off at the isolator.
Ensure that current is not supplied to
the appliance until after maintenance
or repair work has been carried out.
~Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
spare parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
~If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a Miele approved
service technician to avoid a hazard.
~This appliance may only be used in
mobile installations such as ships,
caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
~In areas which may be subject to
infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all
times. Any damage which may be
caused by cockroaches or other vermin
will not be covered by the warranty.
Correct use
Caution. Danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by
the oven and the appliance
becomes hot. Care should be taken
to avoid touching heating elements
inside the oven.
~Use oven gloves when placing food
in the oven, turning or removing it and
when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a
hot oven. Be very careful that you do
not burn yourself on the top heating /
grill element.
~Never leave the appliance
unattended when cooking with oil or
fats, as these are a fire hazard if
allowed to overheat.
~Do not exceed the recommended
grilling times when using the "Grill Y",
"Economy Grill Z" and "Fan Grill \"
functions. Excessively long grilling
times can lead to food drying out and
burning, or could even cause it to catch
fire.
~Do not use the "Grill Y", "Economy
Grill Z" or "Fan Grill \" to finish
baking part-cooked rolls or bread or to
dry flowers or herbs. Fire hazard.
Use "Fan Plus U" or "Conventional V"
instead.
Warning and Safety instructions
8

~If using alcohol in your recipes, high
temperatures can cause the alcohol to
vaporise and even to ignite on the hot
heating elements.
Alcohol should be burnt off before the
dish is placed in the oven to avoid this
danger.
~Cover any food which is left in the
oven to be kept hot. Any moisture in the
food could lead to corrosion damage in
the oven. This also prevents the food
from drying out.
~If you wish to complete a cooking
process using the residual heat in the
oven, leave the function selector at the
position set and turn the temperature
selector to the lowest setting. Do not
switch the appliance off until the food
has been removed. Increased moisture
in the oven could cause condensation
to form which could lead to
– corrosion in the oven compartment.
– damage to the control panel, worktop
and surrounding kitchen furniture.
~Do not line the floor of the oven with
aluminium foil when using
"Conventional V"/"Bottom
Heat X"/"Intensive
Bake O"/"Rapid Heat-up S".
This would cause a build-up of heat
which could cause damage to the floor of
the oven.
For this reason, do not place a dish, tin or
baking tray directly on the oven floor.
If using a tray made by a different
manufacturer, make sure that there is a
gap of at least 6 cm between the
bottom of the tray and the floor of the
oven.
~Never add cold water to food on a
hot universal tray or baking tray or
directly onto food in a hot oven. The
steam created could cause serious
burns or scalding and the sudden
change in temperature can damage the
enamel.
~Always ensure that food is suitably
cooked or reheated.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at
temperatures over 70 °C for a minimum
of 10 minutes. Therefore when cooking
or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is
particularly important that food is fully
cooked through. If in doubt, select a
longer cooking or reheating time.
It is important that the heat is allowed to
spread evenly throughout the food
being cooked. This can be achieved by
stirring and/or turning the food during
cooking.
~If using plastic containers for
cooking, they must be declared by the
manufacturer as being suitable for use
in an oven. Other types of plastic
containers melt at high temperatures,
and could damage the oven.
Warning and Safety instructions
9

~Do not heat up unopened tins or jars
of food in the oven. Pressure can build
up and they may explode, resulting in
injury or damage.
~Do not push pots and pans around
on the oven floor, as this could damage
the surface.
~Do not lean or sit on an open oven
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 oven door can support a maximum
load of 15 kg.
~Do not use the appliance to heat up
the room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire.
Accessories
~Only use genuine Miele spare parts
and accessories with this appliance. If
spare parts or accessories from other
manufacturers are used, this will
invalidate the warranty, and Miele
cannot accept liability.
~Remove all accessories as well as
the runners and any extra accessories
such as FlexiClip runners from the oven
interior before starting the pyrolytic
cleaning process. The high
temperatures needed for pyrolysis will
damage the accessories.
~Ensure excess spillage is removed
from the oven interior before starting
the pyrolytic cleaning process.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

Oven controls
In addition to operating the various
cooking programmes to bake, roast
and grill the controls also offer the
following:
–a time of day display,
–a minute minder,
–a timer to automatically switch
cooking programmes on and off,
–settings that can be customised.
Safety features
System lock
The system lock 0prevents the oven
from being used unintentionally by
children, for example. See "System
lock".
Safety switch-off
Safety switch-off is triggered
automatically if the oven is operated for
an unusually long period of time.
The period of time will depend on the
particular oven function being used.
The oven will switch off automatically
and "Fault 55" will appear in the display.
The oven can be used again immedi-
ately after switching it off and back on.
Cooling system
A 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 cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after the oven has been switched
off to prevent any humidity building up
in the oven, on the control panel or on
the oven housing unit.
When the temperature in the oven has
fallen sufficiently the cooling fan will
switch off automatically.
Door lock for pyrolytic operation
At the beginning of a pyrolytic cleaning
programme the door will lock for safety
reasons. The door lock will only be
released after the temperature in the
oven has dropped again below 280 °C.
Pyrolytic cleaning
The oven interior can be kept clean by
using the Pyrolytic function, see
"Pyrolytic cleaning ^"
The appliance will heat up to over
400 °C during this cleaning process.
Any residual soiling is burnt off by the
high temperatures.
See "Cleaning and care" for more
information.

regularly.
See "Cleaning and care" for more
information.
Energy efficiency functions
Rapid heat-up function
To minimise the time it takes to heat up
the oven interior, you can utilise the
Rapid heat-up function.
However, pre-heating the oven is only
required for select applications. Please
refer to cooking instructions or separate
User instructions (if available).
Door contact switch
If the door is opened during operation,
the door contact switch automatically
switches off the heating elements.
This helps reduce the amount of heat
lost from the oven interior, e.g. when
checking food.
Time of day display
The time of day display can be
switched off to save energy. The time of
day display remains dark when the
appliance is switched off. It continues
to run unseen in the background and is
visible when the appliance is operated.
Accessories
The following accessories are supplied
with this oven.
These and other accessories are also
available to order from the Miele Spare
Parts Department, your Chartered
Agent or via the internet on
www.miele-shop.com (depending on
country).
Features
14

Universal tray and rack with anti-tip
safety notches
The baking tray, universal tray and rack
are inserted into the oven between the
two rails of a shelf runner.
The universal tray and rack have
non-tip safety notches which prevent
them being pulled right out when they
only need to be partially pulled out.
When pushing the rack back in,
always ensure that the safety
notches are at the rear of the oven.
They can then only be taken out of the
oven by raising them upwards and then
pulling them out.
Anti-splash insert
The anti-splash insert should be placed
in the universal tray when grilling or
roasting.
The juices from the food being cooked
collect under the anti-splash tray. This
prevents them from spitting and making
the oven dirty. The juices can then be
used for making gravy and sauces.
Opener
This opener is used to remove the
cover of the lighting in the sides of the
oven.
