dangers of misuse.

~Great care should be taken to

ensure that children do not touch the

appliance when it is being used.

External parts of the oven such as the

door glass, control panel and the vent

become quite hot. Children's skin is far

more sensitive to high temperatures

than that of adults. Danger of burning!

Technical safety

~Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a

suitably qualified and competent

person authorised by Miele 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. Danger of injury!

~Do not use the microwave function

of the appliance if

– the door is warped,

– the door hinges are loose,

– holes or cracks are visible in the

housing, the door, the door seal or

the oven interior walls.

Operating the appliance with this type

of damage will result in microwave

leakage and present a hazard to the

user.

~The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it

and an effective earthing system which

complies with local and national safety

regulations. 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).

Warning and Safety instructions

~Before connecting the appliance,

make sure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and rated load)

match the mains electricity supply. This

data must correspond in order to avoid

the risk of damage to the appliance.

Consult a qualified electrician if in

doubt.

~Do not connect the appliance to the

mains electricity supply via 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

fully installed.

~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

warranty, repairs should only be

undertaken by a service technician

authorised by the manufacturer.

Otherwise the warranty will be

invalidated.

~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),

–or it has been switched off at the

isolator or at the wall socket and the

plug has been withdrawn.

~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 connection cable is damaged,

it must be replaced by a Miele

approved service technician.

~This microwave compact oven must

not be installed and operated in mobile

installations (e.g. on a ship).

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Caution! Danger of burning.

The oven interior will become very

hot when operating with functions

which do not use microwave power

and also combination programmes

which do use microwave power.

~Use oven gloves when placing food

in the oven, turning or removing it and

when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a

hot oven.

The top heat/grill elements get very hot

when the oven is being used on the

Grill Y, Fan Plus U, Fan Grill \,

Microwave+Grill b, Microwave+Fan

Grill Mfunctions. Danger of burning!

~Plastic containers must only be used

with Microwave solo. These melt at high

temperatures, and if used with any

other function could damage the

appliance.

~Always ensure that food is

sufficiently cooked or reheated.

Many factors will affect the overall

cooking time, including the size,

amount and type of food, its initial

temperature, changes to recipe and the

shape and size of cooking containers.

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, and by observing a

sufficiently long standing time, which

should be added to the time needed for

cooking, reheating or defrosting.

~Please be aware that using

microwave power will shorten cooking,

reheating and defrosting times

considerably compared to when using

functions without microwave power.

Make sure that you keep to the

recommended grilling times when

using the Grill Yand Fan Grill \

functions.

However, excessively long cooking

times can lead to food drying out and

burning or could even cause the food

to catch fire.

– Do not use the microwave function to

dry breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs,

grain etc.

–Do not use any grilling functions to

heat and crisp up rolls or bread, or to

dry flowers, herbs, grain etc.

Use the Fan Plus Ufunction for this

type of procedure and do not leave the

oven unattended.

~Never leave the appliance

unattended when cooking with oil or

fats as these are a fire hazard if allowed

to overheat.

Warning and Safety instructions

~Never heat undiluted alcohol in the

microwave, as this can easily ignite.

If using alcohol in your recipes, please

be aware that 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.

~Do not heat up unopened tins or jars

of food in the appliance. Pressure can

build up and they may explode,

resulting in injury or damage.

~To avoid fuelling any flames, do not

open the oven door if smoke occurs in

the oven interior. Cancel the cooking

process by switching the appliance off,

switch off at the socket and remove the

plug. Do not open the oven door until

the smoke has dispersed.

~Moisture in food could lead to

corrosion in the oven interior and

corrosion damage of the control panel,

worktop or housing unit.

–Always cover food when using the

Microwave (Solo) function. After food

has been brought to the boil,

continue cooking it at a lower setting

to avoid excess steam escaping.

–If you wish to complete a cooking

process using the residual heat in

the oven, do not switch the

appliance off. Leave the function

selector at the position set and turn

the temperature selector to the

lowest setting.

–Cover any food which is left in the

oven to be kept hot. This also

prevents the food from drying out.

~Do not use the appliance to heat up

the room. Due to the high temperatures

radiated, objects near the appliance

could catch fire.

~Do not lean or sit on an open oven

door, or place heavy items on it. This

can damage the appliance. The

maximum load bearing capacity of the

door is 8 kg.

~Do not use full power to warm empty

dishes or to dry out herbs. The

appliance could be damaged if used

without food, or if it is incorrectly

loaded.

~Do not use the microwave function

to heat up cushions or pads filled with

cherry kernels, wheat grain, lavender or

gel, such as those used in

aromatherapy. These pads can ignite

when heated even after they have been

removed from the appliance.

Warning and Safety instructions

~The microwave combination 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.

~Before serving, remember to allow a

sufficient standing time and then

always check the temperature of the

actual food itself after taking it out of the

microwave. The temperature of the

container is not an indication of the

temperature of the food or liquid in it.

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.

This is particularly important when

preparing food for babies, children,

and the elderly or infirm.

Shake or stir baby milk and food

thoroughly after heating, and try it for

temperature to ensure that it will not

scald the baby.

~Never cook or reheat food or liquids

in sealed containers, jars or bottles.

With baby bottles, the screw top and

teat must be removed.

Otherwise pressure builds up which

can cause the bottle or container to

explode, posing a severe risk of injury.

~When heating liquids, the boiling rod

provided should always be placed into

the container.

The boiling rod ensures that the liquid

boils evenly and that bubbles form at

an early stage during the operation.

When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc,

using microwave power without the

boiling rod, 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 'boiling

delay' 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 burning!

The formation of bubbles can be so

strong that the pressure forces the oven

door open. The user could be injured

and the appliance damaged.

Warning and Safety instructions

~Make sure that you only use

microwave safe containers when using

the Microwave (Solo) function or a

combination programme which uses

microwave power. Observe the

instructions given in "Suitable

containers for microwave ovens".

~Ovenproof earthenware can retain a

considerable amount of moisture.

Earthenware and porcelain containers

with hollow handles and lid knobs must

only be used with microwave power if

they have vent holes, which allow the

moisture to escape. Without vent holes

there can be a pressure build-up,

causing the container to crack or

shatter, with the danger of injury.

~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 aluminium foil which reflects

microwaves. This reflected energy can,

in turn, cause the outer paper covering

to become so hot that it ignites.

~Do not leave the 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 "Suitable

containers for microwave ovens -

Plastics".

~Eggs can only be cooked in their

shells using microwave heat in a

specially designed egg-boiling device

available from specialist shops.

Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not

be reheated using microwave power as

this may lead to the eggs exploding,

even after they have been taken out of

the oven.

~Eggs can be cooked without their

shells using microwave heat only if the

yolk membrane has been punctured

several times first. The pressure could

otherwise cause the egg yolk to

explode. Danger of injury!

~Food with a thick skin or peel, such

as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes

and eggplants, 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. Never use a mercury or liquid

thermometer as they are unsuitable for

such high temperatures and break

easily.

Accessories

~Only use genuine Miele spare parts

and accessories with this appliance. If

spare parts or accessories from other

manufacturers are used, the warranty

will be invalidated, and Miele cannot

accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by non-

compliance with these Warning and

Safety instructions.

Rack with non-tip safety notches

The rack is designed to be compatible

with microwaves and so can be used

with programmes which use microwave

power (combination programmes).

Do not place the rack directly on the

floor of the oven and do not use it

with the Microwave (Solo) function.

This could cause arcing which could

damage the oven.

Do not place items weighing more

than 8 kg on the rack.

The rack gets hot when used with

combination programmes which use

the microwave function. Danger of

burning.

The rack has non-tip safety notches

which prevent it being pulled right out

partially.

Guide to the appliance

When pushing the rack back in,

always ensure that the safety

notches are at the rear of the oven

(see illustration).

To remove the rack, lift it upwards

slightly at the front when the safety

notches connect with the sides of the

oven.

We recommend using the rack

together with the glass tray when

cooking items on the rack which might

drip.

Description of functions

Safety features Use

System lock The system lock prevents the appliance being used

by children, for example.

Safety cut-out Afunction without microwave can be started

without selecting a cooking duration. To prevent

overuse and the consequent danger of fire, the

appliance switches off automatically after a certain

length of time. This can be between 1 hour and 10

hours, depending on the function and temperature

chosen.

Ifacombination programme is followed in quick

succession by another combination programme, the

magnetron (which produces the microwaves) cannot

be switched on again until after approx. 10 seconds

have elapsed. For this reason you will need to wait a

short while before starting the second programme.

Energy saving function Use

Door contact switch If the door is opened during a programme that is not

using microwaves, the heat in the oven automatically

switches off. The fans continue to operate. As soon

as the door is closed again, the programme will

continue.

However, if the door is opened during a

combination programme, the cooling fan will

switch off and the programme must be started again

after you have closed the door.

"Switch off time-of-day

display" function

The standard factory default setting can be changed

so that the time of day continues to run unseen in

the background. The display remains dark. The time

of day display is switched on and is visible in the

display when the appliance is operated (see

"Settings - Time of day display").

Description of functions

_Microwave

In a microwave oven there is a high-

frequency tube called a magnetron.

This converts electrical energy into

microwaves. These microwaves are

distributed evenly throughout the oven

interior and rebound off the metal sides

of the oven interior to reach the food

from all sides.

In order for microwaves to reach the

food, they must be able to penetrate

the cooking container being used (see

"Suitable containers for microwave

ovens"). 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 vigorously. The

friction caused caused by this vibration

creates heat which first starts

developing around the outside of the

food and then slowly penetrates

towards the centre. The moisture, fat

and sugar content of food will affect the

speed at which it is cooked.

As heat is produced directly in the

food,

–food can generally be cooked

without adding much liquid or

cooking oil.

–cooking, reheating and defrosting is

much quicker than when using a

function which does not use

microwave energy.

–nutrients, such as vitamins and

minerals, are generally retained.

–the colour, texture and taste of food

are not impaired.

Power level

The following power levels can be

selected:

80 W, 150 W, 300 W, 450 W, 600 W,

850 W, 1000 W

Microwaves stop being produced as

soon as the cooking process is

interrupted or the appliance door is

opened.

Functions

Functions which do not use

microwave energy

UFan Plus

This system works by the circulation of

heated air. As the heated air reaches

the food straight away, temperatures

are lower than those needed for

"Conventional heat" where the heat is

directed at the food from above and

below.

When using Fan Plus you can cook on

two different levels at the same time.

YGrill

This function can be used for grilling

thin cuts and for browning cooked

dishes, e.g. pasta bakes. The grill is

ready for use when it glows red.

PDefrost

The air in the oven is kept at room

temperature and circulated by the fan

to gently defrost frozen food.

\Fan Grill

Temperatures used for Fan Grill are

lower than those used with the Grill

function.

For grilling thick cuts, e.g. rolled meat,

poultry.

SRapid Heat-up

This function heats up the appliance

quickly to the temperature required.

The temperature indicator light will go

out when the pre-selected temperature

has been reached. The function

selector must then be turned to the

function you wish to use for cooking.

Functions which use

microwave energy

(Combination programmes)

bMicrowave+Grill

aMicrowave+Fan Plus

MMicrowave+Fan Grill

The combination programmes enable

food to be reheated and cooked

quickly with even browning results.

The Microwave+Fan Plus combination

programme is the most effective

because the heat reaches the food im-

mediately giving the greatest savings in

both time and energy.

In general when using the combination

programmes, you should not set the

microwave power level higher than

150 W for baking, and not higher than

300 W for cooking, roasting and grilling.

Functions

Before the oven can be used, you

will need to

– release the controls by pressing

them if they are retracted when

delivered.

– set the time of day.

Setting the time of day

The time of day can only be entered

when the function selector is at "0".

In the display:

– the clock symbol mwill light up.

– the time of day and the triangle V

underneath the msymbol will start

flashing.

I2:00

^Use the temperature selector or the

Vor Wsensors to enter the hour first.

^Touch the OK sensor.

This confirms the hour and the minutes

will then start to flash.

^Use the temperature selector or the

Vor Wsensors to enter the minutes.

^Touch the OK sensor.

This confirms the minutes.

The time of day you have selected has

now been entered.

If there is a power cut, the current time

of day will be stored by the appliance

for 24 hours. After 24 hours, "i2:00" will

appear and the clock will need to be

reset.

Once it has been reset, the time of day

needs to be confirmed with the OK

sensor.

Changing the time of day

^Touch the OK sensor twice.

^Use the temperature selector or the

Vor Wsensors to enter the hour first.

^Touch the OK sensor.

^Use the temperature selector or the

Vor Wsensors to enter the minutes.

^Touch the OK sensor.

The time of day has been changed.

Before using for the first time

Cleaning and heating up for

the first time

Remove any protective foil from the

front of the appliance.

See "Cleaning and care" for more

information.

Before using the appliance for the first

time,

–take all accessories out of the oven

and wash them.

–heat up the appliance once with

nothing in it.

With new appliances, there is usually

a smell during first use. High

temperatures will help dissipate this

smell more quickly.

Please ensure the room is well

ventilated during this operation.

Close doors to other rooms to

prevent the smell spreading

throughout the house.

^Before heating it up, it is a good idea

to wipe the interior out with a damp

cloth first. This way any dust or bits of

packaging that may have

accumulated in the oven

compartment during storage and

unpacking will be removed.

^Turn the function selector to Fan

Plus U.

The recommended temperature of

160 °C will appear.

^Use the temperature selector to set

the highest temperature (250 °C).

^Heat up the empty appliance for at

least an hour.

The timer can be used to set the finish

time (see "Operation - Programming

cooking durations - Automatic switch-

off").

^Leave the appliance to cool down to

room temperature.

^Then wipe the oven interior out with a

solution of hot water and a mild

detergent and then dry it thoroughly

with a soft clean cloth.

Leave the oven door open until the

oven interior is completely dry.

Before using for the first time

Microwaves

–are reflected by metal,

– pass through glass, porcelain,

plastic and card,

–and are absorbed by food.

Material and shape

The material and shape of containers

used affect cooking results and times.

Heat distribution is more even in round

and oval shaped flat containers than in

rectangular containers, providing better

results.

,Ovenproof earthenware can

retain a considerable amount of

moisture. Earthenware and porcelain

containers with hollow handles and

lid knobs must only be used in this

oven if they have vent holes, which

allow the moisture to escape.Without

vent holes there can be a pressure

build-up, causing the container to

crack or shatter, with the danger of

injury.

Metal

Metal containers, aluminium foil,

metal cutlery and china with metallic

decoration such as gold rims or

cobalt bule must not be used with

microwave power.

Metal reflects microwaves and

obstructs the cooking process.

Do not use plastic pots where the

foil lid has not been completely

removed as small pieces of foil

could cause sparks.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Exceptions:

The rack supplied with the

appliance is suitable for use with

microwave power (combination

programmes).

However, it must not be placed on

the oven floor.

–Metal baking trays can be used with

combination programmes which use

microwave power.

–If recommended by the producer,

pre-cooked meals in aluminium foil

containers can be defrosted and

reheated in the appliance using

microwave power. Important:

Remove the lid first.

However, as food is only heated from

the top it is better to remove the food

from the aluminium foil container and

transfer it to a dish suitable for a

microwave oven. The heat

distribution will be more even.

Do not place aluminium foil dishes

on the rack in case the dish sparks

or arcs. If sparks occur, transfer

food to a microwave-safe container.

–For even defrosting and to avoid

overcooking unevenly shaped cuts

of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces

of aluminium foil may be used to

mask wing-tips or other thin parts for

the last few minutes of the process.

Make sure that the aluminium foil is

at least 2 cm from the oven walls at

all times.

–Metal meat skewers or clamps

should only be used if they are very

small in comparison to the size of the

cut of meat.

Glassware

Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass

are ideal for use in the microwave oven.

Crystal glass is unsuitable as it

contains lead which could cause the

glass to crack in the microwave.

Porcelain

Porcelain is a suitable material.

Do not use porcelain with gold or

silver edging or items with hollow

knobs or handles, as insufficient

ventilation may cause pressure.

Earthenware

Decorated earthenware is only suitable

if the decoration is beneath an all-over

glaze.

Earthenware can get very hot, and

may crack.

Glazes and colours

Some glazes and colours contain

metals which make them unsuitable

for use in a microwave oven.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Wood

Wooden dishes are not suitable.

Moisture contained in the wood

evaporates when exposed to

microwave energy, causing the

wood to dry and crack.

Plastics

Only plastic containers and plastic

disposable containers which are

specified by the manufacturer as

suitable for use in a microwave oven

may be used. Disposable containers

are not always recyclable or

biodegradable.

,Plastic items may only be used

with Microwave _(Solo). They

must be heat-resistant to a minimum

of 110 °C. Otherwise the plastic may

melt and fuse with the food.

Special plastic utensils designed for

use in microwave ovens are available

from good retail outlets.

Melamine is not suitable for use in this

oven. Melamine absorbs microwave

energy and gets hot. When purchasing

plasticware, make sure that it is suitable

for use in a microwave oven.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when reheating or cooking food in

disposable containers made of

plastic, paper or other inflammable

materials.

Disposable containers, such as trays

made from polystyrene, can only be

used for very short, timed warming and

reheating of food.

Plastic boiling bags can be used for

cooking and reheating. They should

be pierced beforehand so that

steam can escape. This prevents a

build-up of pressure and reduces

the risk of the bag bursting.

Roasting bags and tubes can be

used. Please follow the manufacturer's

instructions.

,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.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Testing dishes for their

suitability

If in doubt as to whether glass,

earthenware or porcelain plates or

dishes are suitable for use in a

microwave oven, a simple test can

be performed:

^Insert the glass tray in the oven at the

lowest shelf level 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 the microwave function _

and select the hightest power level

(1000 W).

^Confirm with "OK".

^Enter a duration of 30 seconds and

confirm with "OK".

At the end of the test, the water in

the glass should be warm and the

dish cool. If the dish is hot, it would

be unwise to use the dish.

If a cracking noise is heard

accompanied by sparks during the

test, switch the appliance off imme-

diately. Any crockery which causes

this reaction is unsuitable for use

with microwave power.

If any doubt exists about the

suitability of a container, please

contact the supplier.

This test cannot be used to check

whether items with hollow knobs or

handles are suitable for use with

microwave power.

Placing the dish in the oven

^Insert the glass tray at the lowest

shelf level.

^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 defrosting/cooking/

reheating results as the microwaves

would not be able to reach the food

from below.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

A cover (optional accessories)

–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.

When using programmes which use the

microwave function always cover the

food with lids or covers made of

microwave-safe glass or plastic, or use

a clingfilm recommened for use in a

microwave oven (pierce as instructed

by the manufacturer).

Unsuitable clingfilm can melt into the

food.

,Sealed glass containers, such as

jars of baby food, must be opened

before they are placed in the oven.

Do not use a cover if

–food coated with breadcrumbs is

being cooked.

–cooking meals which are to be given

a crisp finish.

–using a combination programme

which uses microwave power.

,The cover supplied may only be

used in Microwave _(Solo) mode.

The cover can only withstand

temperatures of up to 110 °C.

Higher temperatures generated by

grilling or fan heat could cause the

plastic to distort and fuse with the

food.

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.

Please refer to the relevant tables.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using microwave power

Before defrosting, reheating and

cooking

^Place food (including frozen) in a

dish that is suitable for the

microwave, and cover it.

^Place the container in the middle of

the glass tray and insert it at the

lowest shelf level.

With combination programmes

Only use heat-resistant containers

which are microwave-safe.

A lid is generally not required.

It is essential not to cover food when

using "Microwave+Grill", as the food

will not brown.

^Place the glass tray on the second

lowest shelf level.

Ready made meals in aluminium

containers must be placed directly onto

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.

After defrosting, reheating and

cooking

Allow the food to stand at room

temperature long enough to allow the

temperature to spread evenly

throughout the food.

,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.

,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.

Always ensure that food is

sufficiently cooked or reheated.

If in any doubt that the food has been

sufficiently reheated/cooked, place it

back in the appliance and reheat/cook

it for a little longer.

It is very important to make sure that

food which goes off easily, such as fish,

poultry and minced meat is cooked

sufficiently.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using microwave power

Guidance on reheating food

Food for babies and young children

or the elderly must not be allowed to

get too hot. We do not recommend

heating or reheating foods or drinks

for babies or young children in the

microwave oven. Any decision to do

this is the responsibility of the user,

and should only be done with the

utmost care. Pasteurised or

sterilised cooked food should be

gently heated using 450 watts, and

tasted to make sure it is not too hot

for a baby's palate before serving.

When reheating other food or drink,

heat to a high temperature and allow

to cool to a suitable heat for eating.

For formula milk, follow the

manufacturer's instructions.

Always open glass jars.

Remove the lid from jars of baby

food.

Remove the screw cap and the teat

before heating up bottles of baby milk.

When reheating liquids place the

boiling rod supplied into the cup or

glass.

Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a

microwave oven, even without the

shell. The eggs can explode.

Guidance on cooking

Food with a thick skin or peel, such

as tomatoes, sausages, jacket

potatoes and aubergines, should be

pierced or cut in several places to

allow steam to escape and prevent

the food from bursting.

Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should

not be cooked using the Microwave

_function as this may lead to the

eggs exploding, even after they

have been taken out of the oven.

Eggs can, however, be cooked

using microwave power if you have

purchased special containers

designed for this purpose.

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.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using microwave power

Useful tips

Use Tips

Defrosting large

quantities of food at

once, e.g. 2 kg fish

The glass tray placed on the lowest level can be used

for defrosting food.

Reheating food Always cover food when reheating it, except when

reheating meat/fish coated in breadcrumbs.

Cooking vegetables Add a little water to vegetables which have been kept

stored.

Vegetable cooking times depend on the texture of the

vegetable. Fresh vegetables contain more water than

vegetables which have been stored and usually cook

more quickly.

Cooking frozen ready-

meals

These can be defrosted and reheated or cooked at the

same time. Please follow instructions given on the

packet.

Problem Possible cause and remedy

The food is not

sufficiently heated or is

not cooked at the end

of a set time.

Check that you remembered to restart the programme

after interrupting a cooking process using microwave

power.

Check that the correct duration was selected for the

power level chosen when cooking or reheating in

microwave mode.

The lower the power level the longer the duration.

Food cools down too

quickly after being

reheated or cooked in

microwave mode.

When cooked by microwaves, food begins to cook from

the outside first, the inside of the food relying on the

slower conduction of heat.

If food is cooked at a high power level it is possible that

the heat may not have reached the centre of the food.

Food may be warm in the middle but cool on the edge.

When reheating food with different densities, such as

plated meals, it is sensible to start with a low power

level and select a longer reheating time.

ßFan Plus U

Ideal for baking biscuits, sponges,

choux pastry, puff pastry and filo

ßMicrowave+Fan Plus a

Suitable for doughs which require

longer baking, such as rubbed in and

beaten mixtures and yeast recipes.

The baking duration is shorter.

A microwave power level of no more

than 150 W is used throughout the

baking duration.

Bakeware

For the best baking results make sure

that you chose bakeware in a material

suitable for the particular oven function

you are using.

Fan Plus U

Bakeware made of any heat-resistant

material is suitable. Light-coloured,

thin-walled, non-reflective metal tins

can be used, but results may not be as

good as with dark non-reflective tins.

Microwave+Fan Plus a

Only use heat-resistant bakeware which

is microwave-safe (see "Suitable

containers for microwaves" ), e.g

bakeware made of heat-resistant glass

or ceramics, as microwaves can

penetrate these materials.

Metal bakeware, on the other hand,

reflects microwaves, which are then

only able to access the cake from

above. A longer baking time would be

required. Furthermore, metal baking

tins can also cause sparking.

To check for suitability, place the tin on the

glass tray, and make sure it does not

touch the interior walls. If sparking

continues, do not use this tin again with a

microwave combination programme.

Useful tips

You can also programme the duration

(see "Operation - Programming cooking

durations). However, do not delay the

start too long when baking as the cake

mixture or dough will dry out, and the

raising agents will lose their

effectiveness.

Place cakes being baked in retangular

tins with the longer side across the

width of the oven for optimum heat

distribution and even results.

Eating food which has been cooked

correctly is important for good

health.

Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc.

until they are golden brown. Do not

overcook them.

Even baking and browning is achieved

when baking cakes, pastries, frozen

foods such as chips, croquettes, pizza,

baguettes etc. by

–selecting the lowest temperature

given in the recipe/cooking

instructions on the packaging.

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.

–Place chips, croquettes and similar

types of food on baking parchment.

Baking

Problem Possible cause and remedy

Cakes or biscuits are

not properly cooked

after the time

recommended in the

chart.

Check that the correct temperature has been set.

Check whether there has been a change to the recipe.

The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a

moister mix which would take longer to cook.

Check the material and colour of the baking tins being

used.

Bright shiny tins are not very suitable. Try using a

different tin next time. These reflect heat, making more

difficult for the heat to reach the food. The food will not

cook through properly.

Cakes or biscuits are

unevenly browned.

There is always likely to be small differences in the level

of browning.

If the difference is very noticeable, check whether the

temperature setting is high enough, and also the

material and colour of the baking tins.

Bright shiny tins are not very suitable. Try using a

different tin next time. These reflect heat, which means

that the heat does not penetrate to the food effectively,

resulting in uneven or poor browning.

The roasting time is shorter.

The following microwave power levels

should be used throughout the cooking

duration.

–For meat and fish: max. 300 W,

– For poultry: 150 W.

This combination programme is not

suitable for cooking roast beef or fillet

steak. The centre would be too well

cooked before the exterior is browned.

Containers

For best results, make sure that you

select containers suitable for roasting.

Fan Plus U

The following containers are suitable:

Roasting tins, casserole dishes,

ovenproof glass, earthenware.

Make sure that the pot and lid have

heat-resistant handles.

Microwave+Fan Plus a

Only use heat-resistant dishes which

are microwave-safe. Do not use a metal

lid (see "Suitable containers for

microwave ovens").

Roasting

Pot roasting

Roasting in a covered pot is highly

recommended:

–The meat stays succulent,

–and the oven stays cleaner, too.

–It also ensures that sufficient stock

remains for making gravy.

Season the meat and place it in the pot.

Add some butter or margarine or baste

with a little oil or cooking fat. Add about

125 ml water when roasting a large,

lean joint of meat (2 – 3 kg) or poultry

with a high fat content.

Put meat or poultry into the oven

without pre-heating. Exception: Pre-

heat the oven at the temperature

suggested when roasting beef and

beef fillet.

Shelf level

Fan Plus U

^Insert the rack with the food on it at

the lowest shelf level.

Microwave+Fan Plus a

^Place the rack or the glass tray on

the lowest shelf level.

Temperature

Please refer to the roasting chart.

The larger the joint of meat (max. 3 kg,

except for poultry), the lower the

temperature required. For poultry

above 3 kg select a temperature

approx. 10 °C lower than that given in

the roasting chart. Roasting will take

longer at the lower temperature, but the

poultry will be more evenly cooked, and

the skin is less likely to burn.

Roasting

Roasting time

The roasting time will depend on the

type of meat, the size and thickness of

the cut, The traditional British method is

to allow 20 minutes per lb/450 g,

according to the type of meat, plus

20 minutes, adjusting the duration as

roasting proceeds to obtain the

required result.

Browning only occurs towards the end

of the roasting time.

Remove the lid about 15 – 20 minutes

before the end of the roasting time if a

more extensive browing result is

required.

Useful tips

Take the meat out of the oven, wrap in

aluminium foil and leave to stand for

about 10 minutes. This helps retain the

juices when the meat is carved.

Roasting on the rack

When roasting on the rack set a

temperature of approx. 20 °C lower than

in a covered pot.

Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or

place a few strips of streaky bacon on

the top.

Do not add too much liquid during

cooking as this will hinder the browning

process.

Roasting bags

When using a roasting bag, follow the

manufacturer's instructions.

Roasting poultry

For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten

minutes before the end of cooking time

with slightly salted water.

Frozen meat

Deep frozen meat should be thoroughly

defrosted before roasting.

Testing to see if cooked

One way of finding out how far through

a piece of meat has been cooked is to

press down on it with a spoon.

–If there is very little resistance to the

pressure of the spoon, it will still be

red on the inside ("rare").

–If there is some resistance the inside

will be pink ("medium").

–If there is great resistance, it is

throughly cooked through ("well

done").

Fan Grilling guide (Fan Grill \)

–Use the Fan Grill function for meat, fish, poultry and vegetables.

–Always pre-heat for at least 5 minutes before Fan Grilling.

–It is not necessary to turn food when Fan Grilling.

–The door must be closed during Fan Grilling.

–When using red meat, pat the meat dry before Fan Grilling as this encourages a

richer colour.

–Note: all temperatures are approximations and must be varied according to the

thickness and preparation of the meat. The chart below is a suggested guide

Function

ßDefrost P

The air in the oven is kept at room

temperature and circulated by the fan

to gently defrost frozen food.

Shelf level

^Place the food to be defrosted on the

glass tray or into a suitable dish.

Small pieces of poultry can be placed

on an upturned saucer in the glass tray.

This way it will not be lying in defrosted

liquid.

^Depending on the size of the food

being defrosted select the 1st or 2nd

shelf level from the bottom.

Defrosting times

The time needed for defrosting

depends on the type and weight of the

food, and at what temperature it was

deep frozen. The following chart is for

guidance only. It is important to

manually check the food to ensure it is

thoroughly defrosted.

Chicken, 800 g.........90–120min.

Meat, 500 g ............60–90min.

Meat, 1000 g ..........90–120min.

Sausage, 500 g .........30–50min.

Fish, 1000 g ............60–90min.

Strawberries, 300 g ......30–40min.

Cake, 500 g ............20–30min.

Bread, 500 g ...........30–40min.

Useful tips

,It is particularly important to

observe food hygiene rules when

defrosting poultry. Do not use the

liquid from the defrosted poultry.

Pour it away, and wash the tray, the

sink and your hands. Danger of

salmonella poisoning.

Fish does not need to be fully defrosted

before cooking.

Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently

soft to take herbs and seasoning.

,Do not refreeze food once it has

thawed.

Defrosting without microwave power

,Do not use a steam cleaner to

clean the appliance. The steam

could reach electrical components

and cause a short circuit.

Clean the oven interior, inside of the

door and door seal as soon as it has

cooled down. Waiting too long can

make cleaning unnecessarily

difficult and in some cases

impossible.

In certain circumstances, very heavy

soiling can even damage the

appliance.

Oven interior

,The oven interior can get hot

during use. Danger of burning.

The oven interior is made from

stainless steel which has been treated

with a special finish called

PerfectClean. This finish has an

iridescent appearance. Perfect-Clean

surfaces have very good anti-stick

properties and are easy to clean.

However, it is important to clean the

surfaces each time the oven is used.

The surfaces will become harder to

clean and the anti-stick properties will

deteriorate if soiling is not removed

after each use and allowed to build-up

If the oven is used frequently without

being cleaned, it may become very

difficult or even impossible to get clean

again.

Normal soiling

Do not use too much water on the

cloth or sponge and do not let water

or any other substance find its way

into any openings.

Clean the surfaces with hot water and a

little washing-up liquid applied with a

well wrung-out soft sponge.

Cleaning is easier if a little washing-up

liquid is applied to the soiling and left to

soak in for a few minutes before

cleaning.

If necessary, the reverse of a non-scrat-

ching washing-up sponge can be used.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with

clean water. The water must run off the

surface easily. Any residual cleaning

agents will hinder this effect.

Heavy soiling

Allow the surfaces to cool down to room

temperature. Apply a proprietary oven

cleaning spray (such as from Miele's

CareCollection), and leave to take effect

for a maximum of ten minutes only.

When using the Original Miele oven

cleaner, the time stated on the packaging

can be slightly extended if needed.

If necessary, the scouring pad on the

back of a non-scratch washing-up

sponge or a soft nylon brush can be

used to loosen the soiling. Repeat the

process if necessary.

After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with

clean water and then dry thoroughly.

These cleaning tips will help to assure

that the surface is cleaned thoroughly

and remains undamaged.

Cleaning and care

The following cause lasting damage

to the surface structure and reduce

the anti-stick effect and must not be

used on PerfectClean surfaces:

–Abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

powder cleaners and cream cleaners

–Cleaning agents for ceramic

cooktops

–Wire wool or metal scourers

–Abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers

or sponges which have been

previously used with abrasive

cleaning agents

– Oven spray must not be used in a

hot oven or left on for too long

– Spot cleaning using mechanical

cleaning agents

Note:

–Soiling such as spilt juices and cake

mixtures are best removed whilst the

oven or tray is still warm. Exercise

caution, make sure the oven is not

too hot - danger of burning.

–Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting

discolouration to the surfaces. This

discolouration is permanent but will

not affect the efficiency of the

enamel. Clean these following the

instructions given above and do not

use force to remove them.

– To neutralise odours in the oven, put

a container of water with some lemon

juice in the oven and simmer for a

few minutes.

Cleaning and care

Oven interior roof

If the oven interior roof is badly soiled,

the grill element can be lowered to

make cleaning easier.

,Make sure the oven heating

elements are switched off and cool.

Danger of burning.

^To lower the grill element, the nut

needs to be unscrewed.

^Lower the grill element gently.

Do not use force! This can damage

the element.

^After cleaning the grill element, raise

it gently back up again. Refit the nut

and tighten to secure the grill

element back in position.

Cleaning and care

Door interior and door seal

,The oven interior can get hot

during use. Danger of burning.

Clean the front using a damp microfibre

cloth or with a clean sponge and a

solution of hot water and washing-up

liquid. Wipe the surfaces dry using a

soft cloth.

,Check the door and door seal at

regular intervals for any sign of

damage.

If any damage is noticed, the oven

should not be used again in

microwave mode until the fault has

been rectified by a service

technician.

Glass surfaces are susceptible to

scratches. Scratches can cause

glass surfaces to break.

When cleaning glass surfaces do not

use:

–Abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

powder cleaners and cream cleaners

–Hard, abrasive sponges and

brushes, e.g. pot scourers

–sharp metal scrapers.

Appliance front

Remove any soiling on the front of

the appliance straight away. Soiling

that is left too long is harder to

cloth or with a clean sponge and a

solution of hot water and washing-up

liquid. Wipe the surfaces dry using a

soft cloth.

The external surfaces of this

appliance are all susceptible to

scratching. Scratches on glass

surfaces could even cause a

breakage in certain circumstances.

Contact with unsuitable cleaning

agents can alter or discolour the

external surfaces.

Cleaning and care

Avoid damage to the surface. To

prevent damage to your appliance

when cleaning, do not use:

–Cleaning agents containing soda,

ammonia, acids or chlorides

–Cleaning agents containing

descaling agents

–Abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

powder cleaners and cream cleaners

If the door is opened

whilst the oven is

operating on microwave

solo, the oven will stop

making a noise.

This is because the cooling fan switches off when the

door is opened.

Problem solving guide

Problem Possible cause and remedy

A noise is heard after a

programme has

finished.

The cooling fan continues 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 has fallen

sufficiently, the fan switches off automatically.

An abnormal sound can

be heard when the

oven is operating in

microwave mode.

Check if there are sparks caused by using metal dishes

(see "Suitable containers for microwave ovens").

Check if the food is covered with aluminium foil.

Remove the foil.

Check if the rack is inside the oven.

Always use the glass tray when using the oven in

Microwave solo mode.

The microwave works

and the oven heats up,

but the interior lighting

does not come on.

Check if the halogen lamp is defective.

If so, it needs to be replaced as follows.

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply

(switch off and unplug at the socket, or remove the

fuse, or switch off at the isolator as appropriate).

The lamp cover consists of two parts: a glass piece

and a mounting.

Hold the lamp cover securely when removing it so

that it doesn't fall. Place a tea towel over the floor of

the oven and the open door to protect them.
