be supervised by a competent and

responsible person to avoid the risk of

injury.

Warning and Safety instructions

Before connecting the appliance,

make sure that the connection data

on the data plate (voltage and

connected load) match the mains

electricity supply. This data must

correspond in order to avoid risk of

damage to the appliance. Consult a

qualified electrician if in any doubt.

Installation work and repairs may

only be carried out by suitably

qualified and competent persons in

accordance with local and national

safety regulations. Repairs and other

work by unqualified persons could be

dangerous and the manufacturer will

not be held liable.

Ensure current is not supplied to the

appliance until after maintenance or

repair work has been carried out.

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the

required safety of the appliance (e.g.

danger of overheating).

This equipment may only be

installed in mobile installations

such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if

a risk assessment of the installation has

been carried out by a suitably qualified

engineer.

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

The appliance is only completely

isolated from the electricity supply

regulations. It is most important that this when:

basic safety requirement is present and

– the mains fuse is disconnected,

regularly tested 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).

– or 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plug has been withdrawn.

The appliance must be built in

before operation to ensure that no

electrical components are accessible.

Warning and Safety instructions

Use

Do not use the microwave function

to heat up cushions or pads filled

General notes

Always ensure that food is

sufficiently cooked or reheated.

Many factors will affect the overall

cooking time, including the size and

amount of food, its initial temperature,

changes to recipe and the shape and

size of cooking container.

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.

Exercise caution when cooking or

reheating food with a high sugar

content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If

heated for too long the sugar may

caramelise or ignite. Always ensure that

this type of procedure is supervised.

Some foods may contain

micro-organisms which are only

destroyed by thorough cooking,

therefore when cooking or re-heating

foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly

important that food is fully cooked

through (at temperatures of over 70°C

for more than 10 minutes). 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.

Do not use full power to warm

empty dishes. The lack of food or

incorrect loading could cause damage

to the appliance.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when cooking with oils and fats as

these can be a fire hazard if allowed to

overheat.

If smoke occurs in the oven, to

avoid fuelling any flame do not

open the oven door. Switch the

appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF

selector, switch off at the mains socket

and remove the plug from the socket.

Do not open the oven door until the

smoke has dispersed.

Always remember that cooking

times using microwave power are

usually considerably shorter than with

traditional methods of food preparation

(Fan plus, Auto roast, Grill, Fan Grill).

Excessively long cooking times can

lead to food drying out and burning, or

could even cause it to catch fire. Do not

use the microwave function to dry

breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, grain etc.

Use the Fan plus function for this type

of procedure, and do not leave the

oven unattended.

Only use the Miele roast probe

supplied with this appliance.

If a replacement is necessary it can be

obtained from the Miele Spare Parts

Department or your Miele dealer.

Warning and Safety instructions

When not in use do not leave the

roast probe in the oven, especially

when grilling.

The high temperatures used for grilling

could cause plastic components on the

roast probe to melt.

– lead to moisture damage in the oven.

The glass tray and the combi rack

take a maximum load of 8 kg.

Exceeding this weight limit can cause

them damage.

Do not lean or sit on an open oven

door, or place heavy items on it.

This could damage the appliance. The

oven door can support a maximum load

of 8 kg.

Never heat undiluted alcohol in the

oven as this can easily ignite.

Do not heat up tins in the

appliance. Pressure can build up

and they may explode, resulting in

injury or damage.

Never place a hot glass tray (or

any other hot cooking containers)

on a cold surface, such as a tiled or

granite worktop.

Cover any food which is left in the

oven to be kept hot, as moisture in

the food could lead to corrosion

The glass tray or container could crack

damage in the oven. This also prevents or shatter and the worktop surface

could get damaged. Place it on a

suitable pot rest or a wire rack.

Try to avoid the interior walls being

splashed with food or liquids

containing salt. If it does happen wipe

these away thoroughly, to avoid

corrosion on the stainless steel

surfaces.

Do not use a steam-cleaning

appliance to clean this appliance.

Pressurised steam could reach the

electrical components and cause a

short circuit.

If you wish to leave food in the

oven after cooking, e.g. to take

advantage of the residual heat, do not

turn the oven off. Simply select the

lowest temperature, and leave the

function at the position set.

Do not use the appliance to heat

up the room. Due to the high

temperatures radiated, objects left near

the appliance could catch fire.

get trapped in a hot oven door, which

could melt the cable insulation and be

dangerous.

Condensation can:

– damage the housing unit / worktop.

Warning and Safety instructions

Microwave function

When heating liquids, the boiling

rod provided should always be

placed into the container.

Before serving, remember to allow

a sufficient standing time and then

always check the temperature of the

food after taking it out of the oven. The

temperature of the container is not an

indication of the temperature of the

food or liquid in it. When heating food

and drink, 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.

Always stir or shake baby milk and food

after heating it up, and taste it first to

make sure it is not too hot.

When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc.,

using microwave heat 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.

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.

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.

The boiling rod ensures that the liquid

boils evenly and that bubbles form at

an early stage during the operation.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use any containers or

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.

cutlery made from or containing

metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal

glassware, temperature-sensitive

plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery,

metal clips or wire ties. Do not use

bowls with milled rims, or cream pots

with the tinfoil lid only partially removed.

Such items could be damaged or

cause a fire hazard.

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.

The combi rack supplied with the

appliance must be used with the

glass tray. It is designed to be

compatible with microwaves and can

therefore be used with the microwave

function. Do not place it on the oven

floor.

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.

N.B. It gets hot when using the

microwave function. Danger of burning.

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 appropriate

section.

Ovenproof earthenware can retain

a considerable amount of moisture.

Earthenware and porcelain containers

with hollow handles and lid knobs must

only be used with the microwave

function 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.

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 heat as

this may lead to the eggs exploding,

even after they have been taken out of

the oven.

To check food temperature, first

interrupt the cooking process.

Then use a thermometer specifically

approved for food use to measure the

temperature of the food. Never use a

thermometer containing mercury or

liquid, as these are not suitable for use

with very high temperatures and will

break very easily.

Warning and Safety instructions

Traditional oven functions:

Fan plus, Auto roast, Grill, Fan grill

Disposal of your old appliance

Before disposing of your old

appliance, first make it unusable.

Disconnect it from the mains, cut off the

cable near the appliance and render

any plug unusable. Appliances which

have been built-in should be

disconnected from the mains supply by

a qualified person. This will prevent the

appliance from being misused.

Caution. Danger of burning.

When the oven is being used as a

traditional oven, it can get very hot.

Great care should be taken to

ensure that small children do not

touch the oven when it is being used.

Children's skin is far more sensitive to

high temperatures than that of adults.

External parts of the oven such as the

door glass, vents, handle and fascia

panel can become quite hot. Danger of

burning.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by

non-compliance with these Warning

and Safety instructions.

Wear oven gloves when placing

food in the oven, turning it or

removing it. When the grill is being

used, either solo or in a combination

programme, the element becomes very

hot and there is a danger of burning.

Wait until the grill element has

cooled down before lowering it for

cleaning. Danger of burning. Do not

use force to lower it as this can cause it

to break.

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation

by cockroaches or other vermin, pay

particular attention to keeping the

appliance and its surroundings in a

clean condition at all times. Any

damage which may be caused by

cockroaches or other vermin will not be

covered by the guarantee.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing

material

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances

often contain materials which, if

handled or disposed of incorrectly,

could be potentially hazardous to

human health and to the environment.

They are, however, essential for the

correct functioning of your appliance.

Please do not therefore dispose of your

old appliance with your household

waste.

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for disposal

and can normally be recycled.

bags etc. are disposed of safely and

kept out of the reach of babies and

young children. Danger of suffocation!

Rather than just throwing these

materials away, please ensure they are

offered for recycling.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre and ensure that it presents no

danger to children while being stored

for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected

from the mains electricity supply by a

competent person. The plug must be

rendered useless and the cable cut off

directly behind it to prevent misuse.

Operating modes

Microwave function

All food contains moisture molecules

which, when subjected to microwave

energy, start to oscillate 2.5 thousand

million 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 centre.

Microwave cooking offers the benefits

of speed, convenience and nutritional

advantages when food does not require

browning or crisping.

The following power levels can be

selected:

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

850 W and 1000 W.

The moisture, fat and sugar content of

food will affect the speed at which it is

cooked.

How does the microwave oven

function?

As heat is produced directly in the

food,

In a microwave oven there is a

high-frequency tube called a

energy into microwaves. These

microwaves are distributed evenly

throughout the oven interior and

minerals, are generally retained.

In order for microwaves to reach the

food, they must be able to penetrate

the cooking utensil being used.

– the colour, texture and taste of food

are not impaired.

Microwaves can penetrate porcelain,

glass, cardboard and plastics, but not

metal. Do not, therefore, use utensils

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 lead to the creation of

sparks. The microwaves cannot be

absorbed.

Microwaves stop being produced as

soon as the cooking process is

interrupted or the appliance door is

opened.

When the appliance is in operation, the

closed, sealed door prevents

microwaves escaping from the

appliance.

Microwaves pass through a suitable

container and find their way directly into

the food.

Fan plus

This system works by the circulation of

heated air.

A fan in the back wall draws in the air,

heats it over a heater element and

blows it back into the oven cavity

through the carefully spaced openings

in the back panel.

Fan grill

The hot air from the grill is distributed

over the food by the fan on the back

wall of the oven. This enables a lower

temperature to be selected than for

normal oven grilling. Pre-heat the with

the oven door closed for approx. 5

minutes before starting to cook. Grill

The oven does not usually need to be

pre-heated as the heated air reaches

the food straight away. Pre-heating may

be necessary for foods such as puff

pastry and yeast mixtures where instant

heat is required to make them rise

quickly.

When using Fan plus, you can bake

and roast on two different levels at the

same time.

The combination programmes enable

the grill or the fan setting to be used in

conjunction with the microwave facility.

The Microwave + Fan plus combination

programme is the most effective

because the heat reaches the food to

be baked or cooked immediately,

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

450 W for cooking, roasting and grilling.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Microwaves

When using microwave power you

should always place the food / dish

centrally on the glass tray and slide

the tray into the first shelf level from

the bottom. Placing the dish on the

floor of the oven will give

unsatisfactory and uneven results.

Material and shape

– are reflected by metal,

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.

Metal

Metal containers, aluminium foil and

metal cutlery, or china with metallic

decoration such as gold rims or

cobalt blue must not be used in

microwave mode.

– pass through glass, porcelain,

plastic and card,

The metal reflects the microwaves,

hindering the cooking process.

– and are absorbed by food.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Exceptions:

Glassware

– 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.

Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass

are ideal for use in the microwave oven.

Crystal glass contains lead which

could cause the glass to crack.

Glass dishes with a milled rim are

subject to the same risk.

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

containers on the metal rack as this

can cause arcing to occur and

damage the oven.

Both are unsuitable.

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.

– For even defrosting and to avoid

overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of Earthenware

meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of

Decorated earthenware is only suitable

if the decoration is beneath an all-over

glaze.

aluminium foil may be used to mask

wing-tips or other thin parts for the

last few minutes of the process.

Earthenware can get very hot, and

may crack.

Make sure that the aluminium foil is

at least 2 cm from the oven walls at

all times. It must not touch the walls.

Glazes and colours

– Metal meat skewers or clamps

should only be used if they are very

small in comparison to the size of the

cut of meat.

Some glazes and colours contain

metals which make them unsuitable

for use in a microwave oven.

The combi rack supplied with the

appliance is suitable for use with

microwave power. However, it must not

be placed on the oven floor.

The rack can get hot.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Plastics

Do not use metal clips, plastic clips

Plastics must 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.

containing metal parts or paper ties

containing wire.

There is a danger that they will ignite

when heated.

Wood

Special plastic utensils designed for

use in microwave ovens are available

from good retail outlets. When

purchasing plasticware, make sure that

it is suitable for use in a microwave

oven.

Wooden dishes are not suitable.

Moisture contained in the wood

evaporates when exposed to

microwave energy, causing the wood to

dry and crack.

Melamine is not suitable for use in this

oven. Melamine absorbs microwave

energy and gets hot.

Disposable containers

Only those plastic disposable

containers which are specified by the

manufacturer as suitable for use in a

microwave oven may be used.

Plastic boiling bags can be used for

cooking and reheating.

Disposable containers, such as trays

made from polystyrene, can only be

used for very short timed warming and

reheating of food.

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.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when reheating or cooking food in

disposable containers made of

plastic, paper or other inflammable

materials.

Roasting bags and tubes Roasting

tubes should be about 40 cm longer

and roasting bags about 20 cm longer

than the food being roasted, and

carefully tied with string. Turn the ends

over and secure them. The bag should

be pierced according to the

Testing dishes for their

suitability

Any crockery which causes this

reaction is unsuitable for use with

microwave power.

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:

If any doubt exists about the

suitability of containers, 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.

^ Place the empty container centrally

on the glass tray and slide into the

lowest shelf level.

^ Close the door.

A microwave oven process cannot

be started until the door is closed.

^ Press the ON/OFF switch to call up

especially when cooking foods which

need longer to cook, such as

potatoes.

jars of baby food, must be opened

before they are placed in the oven.

Do not attempt to heat them up

unopened.

– speeds up the cooking process.

– prevents food from drying out.

– prevents any loss of aroma.

Do not use a cover if

– food coated with breadcrumbs is

being cooked.

– helps keep the oven interior clean.

– cooking meals which are to be given

a crisp finish.

– using a combination programme.

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, condensation

may not be able to escape through

the holes in the cover. The cover

could get too hot and could start to

melt.

Always use lids or covers made of

microwave-safe glass or plastic, or use

a clingfilm recommended for use in a

microwave oven, (pierce as instructed

by the manufacturer).

Unsuitable clingfilm can melt into the

food.

Defrost

The microwave function can be used to Important when using an automatic

defrost food gently and quickly.

programme for defrosting:

The following settings are

recommended as a general guide:

When defrosting a large amount of food

which has been wrapped in individual

portions, enter a lower total weight than

the actual total weight.

This will give a more even result.

Example:

– 80 W

for defrosting very delicate food, e.g.

cream, butter, gateau and cheese.

– 150 W

1.5 kg sliced steak packed into

3 individual 500 g portions

Enter weight as: 1000 g instead of

1500 g

for defrosting everything else.

The appropriate automatic programmes

are ideal for defrosting.

Turn, stir or separate the food about

half-way through the defrosting time.

The automatic programme has an

audible tone which sounds as a

reminder.

See the chart on the next page for

defrosting durations.

^ Remove the food from its packaging

and place it in a microwave-safe

container.

After defrosting

^ Place the container centrally on the

glass tray and slide into the lowest

shelf level.

Allow the food to stand at room

temperature long enough to allow the

temperature to spread evenly

throughout the food.

If defrosting a large quantity, e.g. 2 kg

of fish, you can place the food directly

on the glass tray and then slide it into

the lowest shelf level.

Reheat

After reheating

Be careful when removing a dish

from the oven. It may be hot.

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.

Allow food to stand for a few minutes at

room temperature once a programme

has ended to allow the heat to be

distributed evenly.

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.

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.

Fan plus

This method is recommended for

cooking and steaming food such as

potatoes and vegetables.

Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should

not be cooked using microwave

power 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.

Microwave + Fan plus

This method is useful when you want to

shorten cooking times and have a

browned finish to the dish.

Microwave + Grill

This method is good for cooking food

which needs a well cooked top or

browned finished to it, such as

macaroni cheese or pasta tuna bake.

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.

Microwave

Place the food in a microwave-safe dish

and cover it.

Place the dish on the glass tray and

slide into the lowest shelf level.

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.

Defrosting and Reheating / Cooking

For simultaneous defrosting and

reheating or cooking the following

functions are suitable:

Combination programme

Select Microwave + Grill for cooking

ready made meals, which are to be

crisped and browned. Select a

– Microwave

microwave power level of 450 watts.

The grill temperature is automatically

set and cannot be changed.

– Microwave + Grill

Microwave is suitable for defrosting

and then reheating or cooking deep

frozen ready made meals which you do

not wish to brown.

Put the ready made meal in a heat

resistant, microwave-proof dish, and

place on the glass tray. Slide the glass

tray into the second shelf level. Do not

cover.

Microwave + Grill is suitable for ready

made meals which also need to be

browned.

Ready made meals in aluminium dishes

must be placed directly on to the glass

tray.

Microwave

Deep frozen ready made meals can be

defrosted and then reheated or cooked.

Please follow instructions given on the

packet.

If this does not brown the food as much

as you would like, next time put the dish

on the rack, and slide this together with

the glass tray into the first level from the

bottom.

Remove the food from its packaging

and place in a covered microwave-safe

dish for defrosting and reheating or

cooking. Soups, stew and vegetables

should be stirred several times during

the process. Carefully separate and

turn slices of meat halfway through the

programme. Turn pieces of fish at the

halfway stage.

Deep-frozen ready made meals in card

trays which, according to

manufacturer’s instructions, are suitable

for use in a normal oven, are normally

also microwave-safe.

Grilling

This oven offers several grill settings:

Grill, Fan Grill, Microwave + Grill and

Microwave + Fan Grill.

grilling time for each item does not vary

too greatly.

Place the rack on the glass tray and

slide into the second or third shelf level

from the bottom, depending on the type

of food you are grilling.

The rack can be used either way up to

achieve the best distance from the grill

element.

Grill is suitable for flat items such as

cutlets, steak, burgers, toast etc.

Fan grill is suitable for grilling thick

cuts, e.g. rolled meat, poultry.

In the Combination programmes

microwave power output is limited to

450 W for the entire duration of the

programme.

Most items should be turned half way

through cooking.

Fan grill

Preparing food for grilling

It is usually best to use the lowest shelf

level. The rack can be used either way

up. Using the rack with the raised

section facing upwards allows more

space underneath the food for hot air to

circulate. If necessary you can use the

second shelf level from the bottom, for

instance where the meat is not too thick

or large.

Rinse meat under cold running water

and then pat dry. Do not season meat

with salt before grilling as this draws

the juices out. Add a little oil if

necessary. Do not use other types of fat

as they can get too dark, burn and

cause smoke. A little butter can be

added to chicken if desired.

Clean flat fish and slices of fish in the

normal way. To enhance the taste add a

little salt or squeeze a little lemon juice

over the fish.

Test 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:

pressure of the spoon, it is still red on

the inside ("rare").

Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes

with the oven door shut before grilling.

Do not engage microwave power

during the pre-heating phase.

– If there is some resistance the inside

will be pink ("medium").

– If there is great resistance, it is

throughly cooked through ("well

done").

Brush the rack with oil and place the

prepared food on the rack.

It is best to grill food of a similar

thickness at the same time so that the

details on these and other foods.

Roasting

The following settings are suitable for

roasting:

Auto roast

Slide the glass tray with the combi rack

into the first shelf level from the bottom.

– Auto roast

– Microwave + Auto roast

Roasting pots with a lid, made from

earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china

or glass, and roasting foil are suitable.

Make sure that the pot and lid have

heat-resistant handles.

Use Auto roast to give meat or poultry

a crisp browned finish.

Select the combination programme to

cook in a shorter time.

Place the dish directly on the glass tray.

The combination programme is not

usually suitable for cooking roast beef

or fillet steak. The centre would be too

well cooked before the exterior is

browned.

The roasting time will depend on the

type of meat, the size and thickness of

the cut, and can be calculated as

follows:

The traditional method is to calculate 20

mins per lb plus 20 mins over.

Put meat or poultry into the oven

without pre-heating.

Exception: Pre-heat at the temperature

The larger the roast, the lower the

suggested when cooking beef and beef temperature to be selected. For cuts

fillet.

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 will

be more even.

Cooking in a covered pot is highly

recommended:

– the meat stays succulent,

– the oven interior stays cleaner than

when roasting on the rack.

To roast on the rack place the rack with

the raised side upwards on the glass

tray and set the temperature 20°C lower

than for pot roasting.

– this ensures that sufficient stock

remains for making gravy.

Do not select a higher temperature than

that advised. This would brown, but not

completely cook the meat.

Half way through the cooking time

remove the lid from the pot if browning

the meat.

Roasting

Microwave + Auto roast

Useful hints

Slide the glass tray with the rack into

the first runner level from the bottom.

Roasting in a covered pot

Season the meat and place in the pot.

Add some knobs of butter or margarine

or baste with a little oil or cooking fat.

Add about 1/8 litre of water when

roasting a big lean joint of meat (2-3 kg)

or roasting poultry with a high fat

content.

Use only heat resistant pots, with no

metal in the pot or lid. Microwaves

cannot penetrate metal to reach the

food in the pot.

If using roasting foil

– cut the foil approx. 40 cm longer than

the piece of food

Browning only occurs towards the end

of the roasting time. 15 - 20 minutes

before the end of roasting time take the

lid off the pot.

– and tie carefully. Make sure the pot,

foil and ties are suitable for

microwave use.

After selecting an Auto roast

Roasting on the rack

temperature, select a microwave setting

for the total cooking time of:

Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or

place a few strips of streaky bacon on

the top.

– 300 W for roasting meat or fish,

– 150 W for roasting poultry.

Do not add too much liquid to the tray

during cooking as this will hinder the

browning process.

Please note that open roasting can give

rise to excessive smoke.

After the roasting process is

finished

Take the roast 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.

The temperature required can be set

20°C lower than for pot roasting.

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.

Using the roast probe

This appliance is supplied with a roast

probe, which enables the roasting

process to be monitored simply and

reliably.

Using the roast probe

^ Prepare the meat in the usual way.

^ Insert the probe right into into the

meat until the tip of the probe

reaches the centre.

The tip of the probe is pushed into the

centre of the meat where it measures

the core temperature continuously.

When the pre-selected core

temperature is reached, the oven

heating is switched off automatically.

Please note:

You can place the meat in a pot or on

the rack on the glass tray. Roasting

bags or foil may also be used, but only

when left open at the ends. Insert the

probe through the foil or bag into the

centre of the meat.

The roast probe can be used with the

following functions:

– Auto roast

– Fan plus

If fat or bone come into contact with the

probe, this can lead to the oven being

switched off too early. Therefore:

– Microwave (Solo and combination

programmes)

– do not let the probe touch any

bones.

– do not insert it into a particularly fatty

area of the meat.

If the meat is very heavily marbled with

fat, select the highest core temperature

given in the roasting chart.

The roast probe should not be used

with poultry or fish. Because of the

amount of bone and cavity space it is

difficult to find a good place to insert

the probe.

Using the roast probe

^ Place the food in the oven.

The cooking duration is calculated

automatically.

Shortly before the end of the cooking

duration, the oven heating switches off.

The Energy-save function then comes

into action. "Energy save phase" will

appear in the display.

If the oven temperature is altered or the

core temperature increased, the oven

heating will switch on again.

As soon as the core temperature

selected has been reached

^ Insert the plug of the roast probe into

the socket until you feel it engage.

– the oven will switch itself off

automatically.

^ Close the door.

^ Select the function required.

– the cooling fan will continue to run for

a while.

At first the recommended oven

temperature (e.g. 160 °C) will appear

in the display.

Note

The timer can also be used to delay the

start of the programme.

^ Alter the pre-set temperature if

necessary

When finished, cover the meat with

aluminium foil and allow to stand for

approx. 10 minutes. During this time

the core temperature rises another

5 - 10°C.

^ Call up and change the "Core

temperature".

The core temperature required will

depend on what is being roasted. See

the Roasting chart for suggested

temperatures.

You may need to insert the probe in a

different place and start again, if:

Once this setting has been accepted

– the oven will start heating up,

– the cut of meat was too large (3 kg or

more) for the probe to be inserted

right to the centre.

– the core temperature rise can be

followed in the display,

– the meat is not sufficiently roasted to

your taste.

The duration for roasting meat by

temperature using the probe is similar

to the duration when cooking by time.

^ Slide the glass tray into the 1st shelf

level from the bottom, and place the

baking container on it.

For preference use ovenproof glass or

ceramic baking dishes, as microwaves

can penetrate these materials into the

food being cooked. Metal tins would

reflect microwaves so that they would

only reach the cakes from the top,

resulting in a longer cooking time.

Cake tins should be placed on the first

shelf level from the bottom. Place the

rack with the raised section facing

upwards in the glass tray. This ensures

sufficient air circulation all around the

tin.

Metal baking tins can also cause

sparking. Place the tin on the glass tray,

and make sure it does not touch the

interior walls.

When baking flat items such as biscuits

you should select the second shelf level

from the bottom to ensure even

browning results.

When baking on two levels at the same

time select the second and third shelf

levels from the bottom.

If sparking continues, do not use this tin

again in microwave combination mode.

Do not use paper based containers

coated with aluminium foil, such as

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

allow them to become dark brown.

Tips on baking

Temperature settings, times and

microwave power settings in the

Baking Chart are suggestions only.

Select an average temperature and

time for first attempts and adapt

accordingly.

To achieve even results without

over-browning the food . . .

. . . when baking cakes, pastries, deep

frozen foods such as chips, croquettes,

frozen pizza, baguettes etc.

Place cakes in rectangular tins with

the longer side across the width of the

oven for optimum heat distribution and

even results.

– always select 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.

With a pre-heated oven shorten times by up to 10 minutes.

1) Second shelf level

2) Place the dish directly on the glass tray.

The information given in this chart is intended only as a guide. See the cookbook supplied with

your oven and/or a good microwave or microwave combi-oven cookbook for further details on

these and other foods.

Cleaning and care

Oven interior and inside of the

door

For more heavy soiling, heat a glass of

water for 2 to 3 minutes until the water

begins to boil. The steam will collect on

the walls and soften the soiling. The

oven interior can now be wiped clean

using a little washing-up liquid if

necessary.

The oven interior and the inside of

the door are hot after use.

Danger of burning.

Wait until the interior, inside of the

door and the door seal have cooled

down before cleaning them. Clean

the oven at regular intervals,

perferably after each use. Waiting

too long can make cleaning

unnecessarily difficult and in some

cases impossible.

If food has burnt on, use a mild

non-abrasive cleaner or a proprietary

cleaner for stainless steel, applied with

a non-scouring kitchen sponge.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents

as the material is susceptible to

scratching.

In certain circumstances, very heavy

soiling can even damage the

appliance.

Do not use sharp metal tools to

clean glass as these can scratch the

surface.

Check the oven interior, door and door

seal at regular intervals for any sign of

damage.

If using an oven spray, the

manufacturer's instructions must be

followed. Do not spray into any of

the openings.

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.

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.

The oven interior is stainless steel. The

high temperatures possible when

operating in a traditional oven mode

can cause the steel to darken slightly.

To neutralise odours in the oven, put a

cup of water with some lemon juice in

the oven and simmer for a few minutes.

Residues of fruit juices as well as cake

mixtures are best removed while the

oven is warm.

Clean the oven interior, inside of the

door and door seal using warm water

with a little washing-up liquid applied

with a soft spong or cloth. Wipe dry

with a soft cloth.

Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting

discolouration to the surfaces.

Cleaning and care

Oven interior roof

Appliance front and control

panel

If the oven interior roof is badly soiled,

the grill element can be lowered to

make cleaning easier.

^ All surfaces and controls should be

cleaned using an E-Cloth or with

warm water and a little washing up

liquid applied with a soft sponge or

cloth.

Wait until the grill element has

cooled down before lowering it to

avoid the danger of being burnt.

^ Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft

cloth.

Do not use sharp metal tools to

clean glass as these can scratch the

surface.

Clean the door handle and the control

elements regularly, preferably after

each use.

This will help prevent grease and other

deposits adhering to surfaces and

becoming difficult to remove.

^ To lower the grill element loosen and

then remove the nut.

E-Cloth

A micro-fibre "E-Cloth" is available from

the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,

which is suitable for cleaning surfaces

such as stainless steel, glass, plastic

and chrome without the use of

chemicals.

^ Lower the grill element gently.

Do not use force to lower the

element as this could break it.

^ After cleaning the grill element, raise

it gently back up again. Refit the nut

and tighten to secure the grill

element back in position.

– oven sprays.

Aluminium fronted appliances

Aluminium is affected by the way that

light falls on it, by the surrounding

environment and by the angle you

observe it from.

Stainless steel fronted

appliances

Stainless steel surfaces are susceptible

to scratches and abrasion.

Aluminium surfaces and controls

may suffer discolouration or damage

if soiling is left on them for too long.

Remove any soiling straight away.

Please observe the separate cleaning

instructions for

– stainless steel surfaces,

– stainless steel coloured controls.

Aluminium surfaces are susceptible to

scratches and abrasion.

Stainless steel surfaces

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned

using a Miele E-Cloth or with a

proprietary non-abrasive cleaning

agent designed specifically for use on

stainless steel.

N.B. Do not use on the controls.

Cleaning and care

Avoid:

Accessories supplied

– cleaning agents containing soda,

acids or chlorides,

– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers,

or sponges which have been

previously used with abrasive

cleaning agents.

Glass tray

The glass tray can be washed in hot

water and washing up liquid, or in the

dishwasher.

To help prevent re-soiling, a

conditioning agent for stainless steel

such as Neoblank (available from the

Miele Spare Parts Department) can also

be used.
