This appliance complies with current safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can lead to personal injury and material damage. Read all instructions before installing or using the oven for the first time. Only use the appliance for its intended purpose. Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user. 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. If such items were dried in the Speed Oven, the moisture in the item would evaporate causing it to dry out and even self-ignite. Persons who lack physical, sensory or mental abilities, or experience with the appliance should not use it without supervision or instruction by a responsible person. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Children Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an oven is in use. Never allow children to operate, sit or stand on any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be injured. Burn Hazard - Do not allow children to use the oven. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children. Danger of suffocation! Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of burns. The oven gets hot at the oven door glass, the vapor vent, the handle and the operating controls. Do not allow children to touch or play in, on or near the oven. Technical safety This appliance must be installed and connected in compliance with the installation instructions. 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. Before installing the oven, check for externally visible damage. Do not operate a damaged appliance. Operating a damaged appliance can result in microwave leakage and present a hazard to the user. Do not use the appliance if: – the door is warped, – the door hinges are loose, IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – holes or cracks are visible in the housing, the door, the door seal or the oven interior walls. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly grounded outlet. See "Electrical connection - GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS". It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. Before installation, make sure that the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt. Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the work area by – removing the fuse, – "tripping" the circuit breaker, or – unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Do not use an extension cord to connect this appliance to electricity. The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed within cabinetry. Danger of electric shock! Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance. This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship). Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Defective components should be replaced by Miele original spare parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance. In order for the oven to function correctly, it requires an adequate supply of cool air. Ensure that the air flow is not impaired (e.g. insulation in the cabinetry). Also be sure that the cool air supply is not heated by other sources nearby. If the oven is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the oven is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the oven, cabinetry and flooring. Do not close the door until the oven has completely cooled down. 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. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Do not let food sit in the oven more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. 10 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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, and observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting. Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear proper apparel while operating the appliance. Do not heat unopened containers of food in the oven, pressure may cause the containers to burst and result in injury. 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. Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use the oven for frying. Do not use water on grease fires. Turn off the Speed Oven immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the door closed. Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces. 11 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To avoid fueling any flames, do not open the Speed Oven door if smoke occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by turning the appliance off and disconnecting it from the power. Do not open the door until the smoke has dissipated. Do not use the oven to heat the room. The high temperatures radiated could cause objects near the oven to catch fire. 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. Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even cause it to catch fire. Be sure you keep to recommended broiling times when using the Broil mode. Do not use Microwave for dehydrating items such as flowers, herbs, bread or rolls. Never use modes with Broil for prebaked products such as bread or bread rolls, or for drying flowers or herbs. Use Convection Bake for these items and monitor the process carefully. Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances, combust on the hot heating elements. 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. Fire hazard! Using Microwave or Microwave combination modes with plastic dishes which are not microwave safe can cause them to melt and damage the appliance. Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal, aluminum foil, lead, crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper covered wire ties. Do not use plastic containers with the foil lid only partially removed (see "Containers suitable for microwave use"). 12 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. Before using single-use containers, make sure they are suitable for use in microwave ovens (See "Containers suitable for microwave use - Plastics"). Do not reheat food in the oven in heat-retaining bags which are intended for use in normal ovens. These heat-retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminum foil which reflects microwaves.This reflected energy can, in turn, cause the outer paper covering to become hot and ignite. The Speed Oven can be damaged when using Microwave or Microwave Combination modes if it is empty or incorrectly loaded. For this reason please do not use modes with microwave power to pre-heat cookware or to dry herbs. Instead use Convection Bake or Surround for these procedures. When using residual heat to keep food in the oven warm, the high humidity and amount of condensation in the Speed Oven can cause corrosion. The control panel, the countertop or the cabinetry can also suffer damage. Always cover food when using Microwave . Once food is cooked through, use a lower power for continued cooking to reduce the amount of steam produced from the food. When using residual heat do not turn the Speed Oven off. Instead set the temperature to the lowest setting and leave the oven on the selected mode. The fan will then remain on automatically and dissipate the moisture. 13 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. The door can support a maximum weight of 17.5 lbs (8 kg). Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy objects on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged. When heating food and drinks, remember that the heat is created in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The dish is only warmed by the heat of the food. The temperature of the container is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. Check the food for the desired temperature after removing it. This is particularly important when preparing food for babies. Shake or stir baby milk and food thoroughly after heating, and try it for temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby. The Speed Oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting items. Items can get extremely hot and there is a danger of burning when the item is removed from the appliance. Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. With baby bottles, the screw top and nipple must be removed. Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or container to explode. Risk of injury. 14 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. This so-called "superheating" can cause a sudden build up of bubbles when the container is removed from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively. Danger of scalding and burning! The formation of bubbles can be so strong that the pressure forces the oven door open, with a danger of injury and damage. The user could be injured and the appliance damaged. Ensure you use only the boiling wand supplied with your appliance. Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode. Eggs in their shells will explode if cooked with microwave power, even after taking them out of the oven. They can only be cooked in their shells using microwave heat in a specially designed egg-boiling device available from specialist shops. Hard-boiled eggs must not be reheated in the microwave oven either as they too will explode. 15 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. Do not use a thermometers containing mercury or liquid as these are not suitable for use with very high temperatures and break very easily Do not use the oven to heat up heating pads filled with grains, gel, etc. These pads can ignite even after they have been removed from the Speed Oven. This oven must only be used for cooking food. Fumes, vapors or heat given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials could be hazardous. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc. Do not cover or block any vent openings. Do not let metal objects (aluminum foil, pans) come in contact with the heating element. Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with or get caught in the oven door. Cleaning and care Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this oven. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Only clean parts listed in these Operating and Installation Instructions. 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. 16 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 spare parts. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become void. Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with this oven. If it is faulty, it must only be replaced with a Miele genuine roast probe.

Data plate The data plate located on the front frame of the oven is visible when the door is open. Printed on the data plate are the model number, serial number and the connection data (voltage/frequency/ maximum rated load) of the oven. Have this information available when contacting Miele Technical Service. Items included The oven is supplied with: – the operating and installation instructions for using the Speed Oven, – screws for securing your appliance into the cabinetry, and – various accessories. 26 Standard and optional accessories This Speed Oven is supplied with a glass tray and rack. All accessories and cleaning and care products in these instructions are designed to be used with Miele ovens. They can be ordered from the Mieleusa.com website or Miele. When ordering, please have ready the model number of your oven and of the desired accessories. Features Glass Tray Wire rack with non-tip safety notches The glass tray is suitable for use with all operating modes. The rack is designed to be compatible with microwaves and so can be used with Combi modes which use microwave power. However it is not suitable for use with the Microwave (Solo) mode. Always use the glass tray when using Microwave (Solo) . Do not place items weighing more than 17.5 kg (8 kg) on it. Do not place the hot glass tray on a cold surface, such as a tiled or granite countertop. The glass tray could get damaged. Use a suitable heat-resistant mat or pot rest. Danger of burns! The rack gets hot when used with Combi modes which use the microwave function. Use pot holders when placing food in a hot oven and when taking it out. Do not place the rack directly on the floor of the oven and do not use it with Microwave (Solo) . This could cause arcing which could damage the oven. Do not place items weighing more than 17.5 lbs (8 kg) on the rack. The rack has non-tip safety notches which prevent it being pulled completely out when it only needs to be pulled out partially. When pushing the rack back in, always ensure that the safety notches are at the back of the oven. 27 Features Boiling wand The boiling wand helps liquids heat evenly. When reheating liquids, place the boiling wand into the cup or glass. To remove the rack, lift it upwards slightly at the front when the safety notches connect with the sides of the oven. Roast Probe Using the roast probe enables you to accurately monitor the temperature during the cooking process (see "Roasting - Roast probe"). We recommend using the rack together with the glass tray when cooking items on the rack which might drip. 28 Features Round Baking Form HBF27-1 Microwave modes will damage the Round Baking Form. Do not use the round baking form when using Microwave (Solo) or Combi modes. This circular form is suitable for cooking fresh or frozen pizzas, flat cakes, tarts and baked goods. Place the round baking form on the rack. The surface has been treated with PerfectClean enamel. Miele Oven Cleaner Miele oven cleaner is suitable for removing stubborn soiling. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before use. 29 Features Speed Oven controls Safety cut-out The oven controls enable you to use the various cooking modes to bake, roast, broil and reheat. A mode without Microwave can be started without specifying a cooking time. To prevent continuous use and avoid the risk of fire, the Speed Oven will turn itself off automatically after a time between 1 hour and 12 hours depending on the function and temperature chosen. It also allows you to access: – the time of day display, – a timer, – a timer to automatically turn cooking programs on and off, – the MasterChef programs, – the creation of a Favorite program, – settings that can be customized. Safety features System lock The system lock prevents the oven from being used unintentionally (see "Settings - System lock"). The system lock will remain activated even after a power failure. 30 If a Combi mode is followed in quick succession by another mode using microwave power, the magnetron (which produces the microwaves) cannot be turned on again until approx. 10 seconds have elapsed. Therefore wait a short time before starting the second process. Features Cooling fan The cooling fan comes on automatically when a cooking program 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 a cooking process to prevent moisture building up in the oven, on the control panel or on the surrounding cabinetry. It will turn itself off automatically after a while. PerfectClean treated surfaces The revolutionary PerfectClean enamel is a smooth, non-stick surface that cleans easily with a sponge. Food and soiling from baking and roasting can be easily removed from these surfaces. Do not use ceramic knives as these will scratch the PerfectClean surface.

Solo Modes Oven modes Convection Bake Use this mode for baking and roasting on several levels at the same time. You can cook at lower temperatures than with the Surround mode because the fan distributes the heat evenly throughout the cavity for a consistent baking temperature. Auto Roast For a premium result, the meat is seared at a high temperature keeping meat tender and juicy. Maxi Broil For broiling meats e.g. steak, chops, kebabs, etc. The entire Browning / Broiling element will glow red to produce the required heat. Convection Broil This mode distributes hot air from the Browning/ Broiling element over the food using the fan. This allows for a lower temperature to be used then when using Broil . Ideal for broiling thicker cuts of meat (e.g. chicken, roulades). Intensive This mode gently circulates heated air from the lower heating element using the fan to create a brick oven environment. Ideal for baking pizza, focaccia, pies and tarts that require a crisp base and moist toppings. Default Temperature temperature range 325°F 75–475°F (160°C) (25-275°C) 320°F (160°C) 200-450°F (100-230°C) Level 3 Level 1-3 375°F (200°C) 200-500°F (100-250°C) 350°F (170°C) 125-475°F (50-250°C) 51 Guide to the modes Oven modes Surround This premium baking mode uses heat from the upper and lower elements to create perfect results on all baking recipes. Bake This mode uses traditional baking techniques to perfect pies and biscuits. Gentle Bake A combination of different heating elements ensures excellent baked good, gratins and lasagna. Convection Roast This mode uses the convection fan to circulate heated air throughout the oven. Ideal for cooking delicate cuts of meat, fish and crispy poultry. Surround Roast For roasting traditional recipes, e.g. pot roast, and braising or cooking at low temperatures. 52 Default Temperature temperature range 350°F 75–525°F (180°C) (25-275°C) 375°F (190°C) 125-450°F (50-225°C) 375°F (190°C) 200-475°F (100-250°C) 320°F (160°C) 30–475°F (250°C) 355°F (180°C) 30–475°F (250°C) Guide to the modes Microwave (Solo) Oven modes Microwave Default Power level power level range 1-7 This mode is used to rapidly defrost, reheat and cook food. Combination Modes During Combination modes the heating element and the magnetron turn on and off alternating one after the other. The heating element browns the food and the magnetron helps it cook quickly. The maximum power level is 3. Oven modes Combi Bake For rapid heating and cooking of food, while browning at the same time. Microwaves will speed up your cooking process without sacrificing the quality of food. When baking do not set the microwave power level higher than 2. Combi Auto Roast For roasting at high temperatures and slow cooking at low temperatures. The Microwaves will speed up your cooking process without sacrificing the quality of food. During the searing phase the oven heats up to 450°F (230°C) to seal the meat. Once this temperature has been reached, the oven temperature automatically drops back down to the pre-set cooking temperature for continued roasting. Default Temperature temperature range 320°F 85-425°F (160°C) (30-220°C) 320°F (160°C) 212-395°F (100-200°C) The maximum adjustable microwave power level is 3. 53 Guide to the modes Oven modes Micro Broil For broiling meats e.g. steak, chops, kebabs, etc. The entire Browning / Broiling element will glow red to produce the required heat. The maximum adjustable microwave power level is 3. Combi Broil This mode distributes hot air from the Browning / Broiling element over the food using the fan. This allows for a lower temperature to be used then when using Micro Broil . Ideal for broiling thicker cuts of meat (e.g. chicken). The maximum adjustable microwave power level is 3. 54 Default Temperature temperature range Broil level 3 Broil level 1-3 395°F (200°C) 210-395°C (100-200°C) 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. Microwaves can penetrate porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastics, but not metal. Do not, therefore, use dishes made of metal, or which contain metal, for example in the form of gold or silver trim. The metal reflects the microwaves and this could cause sparking. The microwaves cannot be absorbed. Microwaves pass through a suitable container and find their way directly into the food. All food contains moisture molecules which, when subjected to microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5 billion times a second. The friction caused by this vibration creates heat, which first starts developing around the outside of the food and then slowly penetrates towards the center. The moisture, fat and sugar content of food will affect the speed at which it is cooked. – Defrosting, heating and cooking is faster than using a conventional oven. – Nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, are generally retained. – The color, texture and taste of food are not impaired. Microwaves stop being produced when the program is interrupted or the door is open. While in operation the closed, sealed foor prevents microwaves from escaping the appliance. Microwave power levels Microwave power levels 1 to 7 can be selected. 55 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. Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass are ideal for use with microwave power. Exception: Do not use crystal glass as it contains lead which can crack or shatter in a microwave. Porcelain Porcelain is a suitable material. They are absorbed by food. Exception: Do not use porcelain with gold or silver edging or items with hollow knobs or handles, as insufficient ventilation may cause a build-up of pressure. Earthenware Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath an all-over glaze. Danger of burning! Wear pot holders when removing earthenware dishes from the Speed Oven. 56 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 heatresistance up to at least 230°F (110°C). Otherwise the cookware will deform and the possibly come in contact with the food. Only use plastic dishes in the Microwave and combination modes. There are also cooking bags that do not need to be pierced. Following the instructions listed on the packaging. – Roasting bags Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Fire hazard! Do not use metal clips, plastic clips containing metal parts, or paper ties containing wire. There is a danger that they will ignite when heated. – Melamine Plastic tableware made from melamine is not suitable for use in this oven. Melamine absorbs microwave energy and becomes very hot. Before purchasing plasticware be sure that is is microwave-safe. – Plastic microwave containers Readily available from retail stores. – Styrofoam containers Disposable containers, such as trays made from styrofoam, can only be used for very short, timed warming and reheating of food. – Plastic cooking bags Plastic cooking bags can be used for cooking and reheating food. They should be pierced beforehand so that steam can escape. This prevents a build-up of steam and reduces the rish of the bag bursting. 57 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. Do not use containers where the foil lid has not been completely removed as small pieces of foil can cause sparking. Exceptions: The rack supplied with the Speed Oven is suitable for cooking with Microwave and Combination modes. Do not place the rack on the floor of the oven. – Metal bakeware can be used with Microwave combination modes. – Ready-meals in aluminum foil trays can be defrosted and reheated using microwave power as long as the lid is removed. When using foil trays there is a risk of arcing or sparks occurring in the oven. For this reason, place the foil tray on the glass tray and not on the rack. The foil tray must be at least 3/4" (2 cm) away from the oven walls. It must not touch them. However, as food is only heated from the top, it is better to remove the food from the aluminum foil container and transfer it to a dish suitable for use in a microwave oven. The heat distribution will be more even. 58 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. Glazes and colors Some glazes and colors contain metal and are therefore unsuitable for microwave modes. Wood Wooden dishes are not suitable. Moisture contained in the wood evaporates when exposed to microwave energy, causing the wood to dry and crack. Testing dishes for their suitability If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or porcelain plates or dishes are suitable for use with microwave energy, a simple test can be performed: Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1 and place the empty item you wish to test on the glass tray. Fill a suitable glass with water and also place this on the glass tray. Close the door. Select Microwave . Set the highest microwave power level (7) and a cooking duration of 30 seconds. Confirm with OK and start the program. If a cracking noise is heard accompanied by sparks during the test, turn the appliance off immediately. Any cookware which causes this reaction is unsuitable for use with microwave power. If in doubt, contact the cookware manufacturer. This test cannot be used to check whether items with hollow knobs or handles are suitable for use with microwave power. 59 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. Placing the food directly on the floor of the oven would give unsatisfactory and uneven results as the microwaves would not be able to reach the food from below. When using Microwave (Solo) , always cover the food with a lid or cover made of microwave safe glass or plastic. These covers are available at retail stores. Alternatively, use plastic wrap recommended for use in a microwave oven (pierce as instructed by the manufacturer). Heat can cause normal plastic wrap to distort and fuse with the food. 60 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. The cover could get too hot and could start to melt. Do not use the cover if: – cooking breaded food, – cooking food which requires a crisp finish, – cooking food with a Combi mode. Otherwise pressure can build up, causing the container to explode, posing a severe risk of injury. Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or container to explode. Risk of injury. 61 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.

Only bake cakes, pizza, french fries, etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them. Oven modes Depending on how you would like the food prepared, you can use Convection Bake , Surround , Intensive , or Combi Bake (see "Guide to the modes"). Combi Bake is particularly suitable for baking doughs with a longer baking time, because the cooking time is shortened. For baking, the microwave power level must not exceed level 2. Bakeware The bakeware used depends on the oven mode chosen and how the food is prepared. – Convection Bake , Intensive : Bakeware made of any heat-resistant material is suitable. Light-colored, thin, non-reflective metal baking pans can be used, but results may not be as good as with dark nonreflective bakeware. – Surround : Dark metal, enamel or aluminum baking tins with a matte finish, as well as heat-resistant glass, ceramic and coated dishes can be used. Avoid bright, shiny metal tins as they result in uneven or poor browning, and in some cases cakes might not cook properly. – Combi Bake Only use oven-safe dishware suitable for microwave use (see "Containers suitable for microwave use"), such as oven-safe glass or ceramic dishes as these allow microwaves through them. Metal containers reflect microwaves so food will only cook from above. Cooking durations would therefore be longer and metal tins could also cause sparking. Place the dish on the glass tray such that it cannot touch the oven walls. If the dish being used causes sparking, do not use it for combination cooking programs again. Parchment paper Place french fries, croquettes and similar types of food on paper. 85 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. Shelf levels The shelf level that you place the food on for baking depends on the oven mode and the number of trays being used. – Convection Bake Cakes in pans: Level 1 from the bottom Flat baked goods (e.g. cookies, cakes): Level 2 from the bottom Baking on 2 levels at the same time: Levels 1+3 from the bottom or levels 2+3 from the bottom – Surround Cakes in pans: Level 1 from the bottom Flat baked goods (e.g. cookies, cakes: Level 2 from the bottom – Intensive In general use Level 1 from the bottom. 86 – Combi Bake Insert the glass tray on Level 1 from the bottom and place the bakeware on it. Tips – Setting the cooking duration. When baking, the oven should not be set to start after an extended period of time. Otherwise the cake mixture or dough will dry out, and the raising agents will lose their effectiveness. – Place cakes in rectangular bakeware on the rack with the longer side across the width of the oven for optimum heat distribution and even results. Roast Always follow USDA guidelines on 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 levels for the entire cooking duration. – For meat and fish: max. level 3. – For poultry: level 2. This combination mode is not suitable for cooking roast beef or tenderloins. The center would be too well cooked before the exterior is browned. Cookware Please take into account the material of your bakeware in your choice of oven mode: – Convection Bake / Convection Roast / Auto Roast : Oven dishes, ovenproof ceramic dishes and glass dishes. Make sure that the pot and lid have heat-resistant handles. – Combi Bake / Combi Auto Roast : Dishes must be suitable for use in a microwave oven and must not have metal lids (see "Containers suitable for microwave use"). Roasting in a closed pan Season the meat and place it in the roasting dish. Dot with butter or brush with oil if necessary. For large lean cuts of meat 4.5-6.5 lbs (2–3 kg) and fatty poultry, add about 1/2 cup (1/8 l) of water to the dish. When using a roasting bag, follow the manufacturer's instructions. Roasting on the rack Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or place a few strips of bacon on the top. Do not add too much liquid during cooking as this will hinder the browning process. 87 Roast Temperature 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. Shelf levels – Convection Bake / Convection Roast / Auto Roast : Rack with meat on it on shelf level 1 – Combi Bake / Combi Auto Roast : Rack or glass tray with meat on it on shelf level 1 Tips – 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. – The larger the cut of meat to be roasted, the lower the temperature should be. The roasting process will take a little longer, but the meat will be cooked evenly and the outside will become crisp. – Use a roast probe for accurate cooking temperatures and best results. 88 Roast Roast Probe When to use the roast probe Apart from MasterChef programs, Special Modes and Favorites, the roast probe can be used with the following oven modes: – Auto Roast The roast probe enables the roasting process to be monitored simply and reliably. – Convection Bake / Convection Roast How the roast probe works – Surround / Surround Roast The metal tip of the roast 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 program the core temperature to be lower or higher, depending on how you would like the meat cooked, rare, medium or well-done. – Convection Broil – Microwave – Combi Auto Roast – Combi Bake – Combi Broil A core temperature of up to 210°F (99°C) can be set. Please refer to the roasting chart and "Slow cooking" for the core temperatures applicable for different types of meat. The cooking time will be similar when cooking with or without the roast probe. 89 Roast Important notes regarding the roast probe Please note: – You can place the meat in a pot, on the rack or in the glass tray, depending on the mode selected. Using the roast probe Insert the metal tip of the roast probe fully into the food. Place the food in the oven. – The metal tip of the roast probe must be fully inserted into the center of the food. – When cooking poultry, insert the metal tip into the thickest part of the breast. You can find the thickest part of the breast by pressing the area with your thumb and index finger. – Do not let the metal tip touch any bones or insert it into a fatty area of the meat. If fat or bone come into contact with the probe, this can lead to the oven being turned 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 aluminum foil, insert the probe through the bag or foil into the center of the meat. You can also place the meat, with the roast probe inserted, inside the foil. Follow the roasting bag / aluminum foil manufacturer's instructions. 90 Insert the plug of the roast probe into the socket until you feel it engage. Close the door. Select an oven mode or MasterChef program. Set the temperature or power level if necessary. Set the core temperature if necessary. The core temperatures cannot be changed for the MasterChef programs. 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. Duration Time left display After a certain time, the estimated duration of the cooking process remaining (time left) will appear in the display. The time left is calculated from the cooking temperature selected, the required core temperature and the pattern of the increasing core temperature. The time left first shown is an estimate. As the cooking process continues, the time is revised continuously, and a more accurate figure is shown. The time left will be deleted if the cooking or core temperature is changed or if a different mode is selected. If the door is opened for a longer time, the time left will be recalculated. 91 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. Select Display core temperature. Select On. Using the residual heat in the oven saves energy. Confirm with OK. Energy Save Phase The actual core temperature will also appear in the display. will appear in the display to show that the oven is in energy save mode.

When the selected core temperature has been reched, – Program Finished display, appears in the – A buzzer will sound if turned on (see "Settings - Volume - Buzzer tones"). Tip: If the food is not sufficiently cooked, insert the probe into another place and repeat the program. 92 Slow Roasting This cooking method is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when a tender result is desired. Cooking duration / Core temperatures First, using a cooktop sear the meat on all sides to seal in the juices. Always follow USDA guidelines on food safety. Then place the meat in a preheated oven. It will be cooked at a low temperature for an extended time allowing the meat to become very tender. Meat The meat will rest and the juices start to circulate evenly throughout. This gives the meat a very tender and juicy result. [min] [°F / °C] 50–70 118/48 – medium 100–130 135/57 – well done 160–190 156/69 Pork Tenderloin 80–100 145/63 Smoked Pork Chop * 140–170 154/68 Veal Loin * 100–130 145/63 50–80 140/60 Sirloin – rare Tips – Use fresh, lean meat that has been trimmed. Remove the bones before cooking. – When searing, use a suitable cooking oil or fat that can withstand high temperatures (e.g. clarified butter, vegetable oil). – Do not cover the meat during cooking. Cooking will take approx. 2-4 hours, depending on the size and weight of the meat, as well as the desired degree of doneness and browning. Saddle of Lamb * boneless After the cooking process Because the cooking temperatures are very low: – the meat can be carved immediately, it does not need to rest. – the cooking result will not be affected if the meat is left in the oven after the program is complete. It can be kept warm until you serve it. – the meat is at an ideal temperature to eat right away. Serve on heated plates with a hot sauce or gravy to keep it warm. 93 Slow Roasting Using the Slow Roasting function Use the glass tray with the wire oven rack placed on top of it. Select Special Modes . Select Slow Roasting. Set the required temperature. Set the core temperature. Follow the instructions in the display. Let the wire oven rack with glass tray preheat in the oven. While the oven is preheating, sear the meat on all sides on the cooktop. Danger of burns! When the oven is hot use pot holders to insert, remove or turn the food, or when adjusting the oven shelves, etc. Once Use the roast probe appears in the display, place the seared meat on the rack and insert the roast probe, so that the metal tip is fully in the center of the meat. For more information see "Roasting Roast probe". Place the glass tray with the rack on top into the oven on the shelf level suggested. Use Caution! The Browning / Broiling element will be hot. Danger of Burns! Insert the plug of the roast probe into the socket until you feel it engage. 94 Close the door.

Reduce the temperature to 210°F (100°C). Continue cooking until the end of the cooking duration. You can set the cooking process to automatically finish (see "Solo modes – Setting additional durations"). 95 Broil Danger of burns! Broil with the oven door closed. If you broil with the door open the hot air will escape from the oven before it has been cooled by the cooling fan. The controls will get hot. Oven modes Maxi Broil For broiling thin cuts of meat and browning. The entire Browning / Broiling element will get hot and glow red. Convection Broil Use this function for thick pieces of meat, London broil. The Browning / Broiling element and the fan turn on alternately. Micro Broil / Combi Broil The broiling duration is shorter. The maximum adjustable microwave power level is 3. Cooking accessories Broiling on the wire oven rack. Brush the rack with oil, and place the food on it. It is best to broil food of a similar thickness at the same time so that the broiling duration for each item does not vary too greatly. 96 Broil level (Maxi Broil / Micro Broil ) – Level 3: Thin cuts are cooked quickly when placed close to the Browning / Broiling element – Level 2: For lighter browning, e.g. casseroles. – Level 1: Thicker cuts should be broiled further from the Browning / Broiling element. Temperature (Convection Broil , Combi Broil ) 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. Thin cuts can generally be broiled at 425°F (220°C), thicker cuts at 355-395°F (180-200°C). Broil Preheating Preparing food for broiling Always preheat the oven for about 5 minutes with the door closed before Broiling. Rinse the meat under cold water and pat dry. Do not season the meat with salt before broiling, this will draw out the juices. Do not set a microwave power level during pre-heating. Shelf levels – Maxi Broil , Micro Broil : Use shelf level 2 or 3 depending on the thickness of the food. Brush the meat with oil, if necessary. Do not use other types of fat as they can easily burn and cause smoke. Clean fish as usual. To enhance the flavor, salt or lemon can be added. – Convection Broil , Combi Broil : Use self level 1 or 2 depending on the thickness of the food. Testing doneness Always follow USDA guidelines for safe food temperatures. 97 Broil Broil Preheat the Browning / Broiling element for approx. 5 minutes with the door closed.

Close the door. 98 Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking Always follow USDA guidelines on food safety. Defrost Reheat Cooking Oven modes / Very delicate foods such as cream, butter, filled sponge cakes, cheese all other foods Food for infants and children All types of food; frozen meals that do not need browning Drinks Heating-up Suitable for: Casseroles; puddings; frozen foods that do not need browning Continued cooking Simmering Select a Microwave Combi mode if you want to shorten cooking durations and have a crisp finish to the dish. 3 + 320-355°F Sear using a high temperature to start (160–180°C) with, then continue cooking with a lower temperature. 3 + 300-340°F Ready-meals which need to be (150–170°C) browned, e.g. gratins Microwave/Microwave power level / Combi Auto Roast / Combi Bake / Temperature The duration required depends largely on the nature of the food, the amount and its initial temperature. Food that has been refrigerated, for example, takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature. Please refer to the relevant charts. 99 Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking Before defrosting, reheating and cooking After defrosting, reheating and cooking Place food (frozen or unfrozen) in a dish that is suitable for microwave use, and cover it. Compensating times are resting periods in which the temperature is uniformly distributed in the food. Place the dish in the middle of the glass tray on shelf level 1. Allow the food to stand at room temperature for a few minutes to enable the heat to spread evenly throughout the food. The roast probe can be used to monitor the temperature when reheating or cooking (see "Roast Roast probe"). With Microwave Combi modes Use only microwave-safe and heatresistant cookware. A lid is not usually required. Never use a lid with the Combi Auto Roast and Micro Broil modes as the food will not brown. Place the glass tray on shelf level 2. Place pre-made meals in aluminum containers directly on the glass tray. During the defrosting, reheating and cooking process Turn or stir the food several times. Stir the food from the outside towards the middle, as food heats more quickly from the outside. 100 Danger of burns! 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. Double check after it has been left to stand. Danger of burns! Be careful when removing dishes from the appliance. Although heat is not normally produced in the container itself by the microwaves (apart from stoneware), heat transfer from the food to the container may be considerable, making the container itself hot. Use pot holders when removing dishes. Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated. Always follow proper food safety guidelines. Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking Tips on reheating Cooking tips Danger of burns! Food for infants Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage, potatoes and egg plant can burst when heated. Pierce or score the skin of these foods several times to allow steam to escape. Otherwise pressure can build up, causing the container to explode, posing a severe risk of injury. Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or container to explode. Risk of injury. Eggs heated in their shell can burst, even after removed from the oven. Eggs can only be cooked in their shells using Microwave (Solo) in a specially designed egg-boiling device available from speciality stores. and children must not be too hot. Heat baby food for only approx. 30-60 seconds at 450 W. You can also use the roast probe for temperature controlled heating. The boiling wand ensures that the liquid heats up evenly with bubbles forming at the right time. When reheating liquids place the boiling wand supplied into the cup or glass. When heating shelled eggs, the yolk may still burst after cooking. Prick the yolk several times before cooking to avoid this. Eggs may burst. Never reheat hard boiled eggs using Microwave (Solo) , even without the shell. The eggs can explode. 101 Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking When to use Notes Defrosting large quantities The glass tray can be used on shelf level 1 for of food at once, e.g. 4.5 lbs defrosting food.

Baked goods are not cooked properly after following the times given in the chart. A different temperature than that given in the recipe was used. Select the temperature required for the recipe. The browning is uneven. The wrong temperature or shelf level was selected. There will always be a slight unevenness. If the unevenness is great, check whether the correct temperature and shelf level were selected. The ingredient quantities are different from those given in the recipe. Double check the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs will make a wetter mixture which will take longer to cook. The cookware used was not right for the program chosen. Bright, shiny pans are not very suitable. These reflect heat, which means that the heat does not penetrate to the food effectively, resulting in uneven or poor browning. Dark, matte pans are best for baking. 123 Frequently asked questions Problem Possible cause and remedy The food is not sufficiently heated or is not cooked at the end of a set duration when using Microwave (Solo) . Check that the program was restarted after interrupting a cooking process using microwave power. Restart the program to ensure the food is heated or cooked properly. The food has cooled down too quickly after being reheated or cooked in microwave mode. Due to the microwave properties, the heat is generated first at the edges of the food and is then transferred to the center of the food. If the food is heated with a high microwave power level the food may be hot on the outside but not heated through to the center. When cooking foods with different sizes, such as with menu cooking, a lower microwave power level for a longer period of time is most suitable. The oven lighting turns off after a short time. The oven is factory set to turn off automatically after 15 seconds. This setting can be changed (see "Settings - Lighting"). 124 When cooking for heating with microwave, the time set was too short.
