Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Do not leave cooked food in the
~
oven and do not use any cooking
For added protection, it is advisable
~
containers which are susceptible to
corrosion as this could lead to
corrosion in the appliance.
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.
The appliance is designed in such a
~
way that there will always be a little
residual water left in the water container
after use. If there is no residual water,
there is something wrong. Call the Ser-
vice Department.
When putting cooking containers or
~
the condensate tray into the oven or
taking them out, take care not to spill
the contents. Avoid contact with hot
steam, and do not touch the hot oven
interior walls. Danger of burning and
scalding.
Do not immerse the water container
~
in water, or clean it in a dishwasher.
Connecting the water container into the
appliance when wet could cause an
electric shock.
If using plastic cooking containers,
~
make sure that they are heat- and
steam-resistant to 100 °C. Otherwise
they may melt, distort or break.
For reasons of hygiene and to
~
prevent the build-up of moisture in the
appliance, the water container should
be emptied after each use.
Do not use the appliance to heat up
~
food in sealed jars and tins. Pressure
will build up inside them and they can
explode causing damage to the
appliance, as well as the risk of injury
and scalding.
Take care not to tip the water
~
container when taking it out of the
appliance. Hot water can scald.
Always ensure that food is
~
sufficiently cooked or reheated.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. Therefore, when cooking or
reheating food such as poultry, it is
particularly important that the food is
completely cooked through. If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.

that the cable of the appliance cannot
get trapped by the steam oven door.
The insulation on the cable could
become damaged, giving rise to an
electric shock hazard.
Do not place heavy objects on the
~
open door. The door can support a
maximum weight of 8 kg.
If the appliance is not going to be
~
used for a longer period of time, e.g.

Before using for the first time
Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied
with this documentation in the space provided in the "After
sales service" section of this booklet.
Cleaning for the first time
Remove any protective foil and adhesive labels.
Water container
Take the water container out of the appliance and remove the
insert (see "Cleaning and care / Water container"). Rinse the
water container and the insert thoroughly by hand using hot
water. Do not use any washing-up liquid or detergent.
Do not clean the water container or the insert in a

interior with a mild solution of washing-up liquid and hot water
and then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
21
Before using for the first time
Setting the correct boiling point for water
The boiling point for water at a high altitude above sea level
will be lower than the boiling point for water at sea level. To
adjust the boiling point for the altitude in your area, fill the
water container with mains tap water (see "Operation /
Preparing the appliance for use") and then run the Cook
universal 100 °C programme for 15 minutes. Proceed as
described in "Operation".
This procedure sets the correct boiling point for water for the
altitude in your area and also flushes out the waterways.
Warning! A lot of steam will be emitted from the appliance.
If you move house, the appliance will need to be re-set for
the new altitude if this differs from the old one by more than
300 m. To do this, descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and

wiping it off or by washing it off.
– If the grease gets into the eyes, it must be rinsed out with
plenty of clean water.
– If it is swallowed, seek medical advice.
The coupling seal should be replaced with a new one if it
becomes brittle or porous or if an unusually large amount of
water collects on the floor of the water container
compartment.
Coupling seals can be ordered from the Miele Spare Parts
Department.
Only use the silicone grease supplied. On no account
must margarine or oil or any other domestic grease or fat
be used, as these can cause the seal to swell.

Cleaning and care
Descaling
For optimum cleaning results we recommend that you use
Miele descaling tablets to descale your steam combi oven
(see "Optional accessories"). A proprietary citric acid based
descaling agent can also be used. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging.
Ensure that the descaling agent does not come into
contact with the metal control panel or the door handle as
this could cause marks. However, should any descaling
agent get onto these surfaces, wipe it away immediately.
The water container will need descaling after a certain
number of operating hours. The display will alert you when
this needs to be done.
The appliance will lock out after you use it for the tenth time.
We recommend that you descale the appliance before it
locks out.
^ Fill the water container with 1 litre of descaling solution.
Follow the instructions on the descaling agent packaging
carefully.
^ Push the water container into the appliance until it
connects.
^ Select the "Descale" function.
^ Confirm with "OK".
^ Confirm with "OK" again.
It is only possible to cancel the descaling process during the
first minute. After that the process cannot be cancelled.
Do not switch the appliance off during the descaling
process. If if is switched off before the end of the process,
the whole process will have to be started from the
beginning again.
After 12 minutes, the appliance will prompt you to fill it with
fresh tap water.

If this is not the case, then disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply for approx. 1 minute. To do this:
– switch off at the socket and withdraw the plug, or
– switch off at the isolator, or
– disconnect the mains fuse.
Reset the trip switch in the mains fuse box, and switch the
appliance back on. If it still will not switch on, contact a
qualified electrician or the Miele Service Department.
... the appliance is in demo mode.
The appliance will not heat up if it is in demo mode. See
"Settings / Showroom programme".
... the fan can still be heard after the appliance has been
switched off.
The appliance is fitted with a fan which removes steam from
the oven.
The fan will continue to run for a while after the appliance has
been switched off.
44
Problem solving guide
... the water container has become harder to put into the
appliance and take out again.
Lightly lubricate the coupling seal on the water container with
silicone grease, as described in "Cleaning and care /
Coupling seal".
... the heating-up phase lasts an unusually long time.
Check the bottom of the water container.
If a thick layer of limescale has built-up, check the water
hardness level that has been set. Set the correct water
hardness level for your water supply (see "Settings / Water
hardness"), and descale the appliance as described in
"Cleaning and care / Descaling".
If the water hardness level was in fact set correctly or the
problem occurs again, contact the Service Department.
... after moving house the appliance no longer switches
from the heating up phase to the cooking phase.
Altitude affects the boiling point of water. If you move house,
the appliance will need to be re-set for the new altitude if this
differs from the old one by more than 300 m. To do this,
descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and care / Descaling").
... during operation an unusually large amount of steam
escapes or steam escapes from parts of the steam oven
where it does not usually.
Check whether
– the door is closed properly.
– the door seal is fitted correctly. If necessary, press it in all
the way round the door to make sure it is fitted evenly.
– the door seal is damaged, e.g. cracks can be seen. The
seal must be replaced with a new one.
If this does not solve the problem, call the Miele Service
Department.
45
Problem solving guide
... a whistling sound is heard when the appliance is
switched on again.
When the door is closed, the pressure has to equalise, which
can cause a whistling sound. This is not a fault.
... F and a number appear in the display.
This combination indicates a fault.
– F 20: The appliance does not heat up.
Check whether the water container has been pushed right
into the appliance so that it connects.
Switch the appliance off and then back on again.
– A fault message will appear if the temperature of the oven
compartment has not risen by at least 2 °C within
5 minutes of the start of the heating up phase. This can
occur if, for example, a large quantity of frozen food is
being prepared.
– Lightly lubricate the coupling seal on the water container
with silicone grease, as described in "Cleaning and care /
Water container / Coupling seal".
If the appliance still will not start, switch it off and contact the
Miele Service Department.
