Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been installed correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified technician. The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed within cabinetry. To avoid damaging the range, make sure that the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the building's power supply before connecting the appliance. When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range to electricity. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required level of appliance safety. 11 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (e.g. on a ship). Danger of electric shock! Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician. Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance. During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven lighting is broken, the range must be completely disconnected from the household electricity supply (see“Frequently asked questions”). The gas inlet valve must be closed. It is only completely isolated from the supply when: – The circuit breakers have been switched off, or – the fuses of the electrical installation have been completely removed, or – the plug (if present) is removed from the socket. To do this, pull the plug not the cord. – Shut off the gas supply and disconnect the range from the gas supply. Installation and maintenance of the gas connection must be performed by qualified installers, service agencies or gas providers. If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until the appliance has completely cooled down. 12 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Reaching over a hot cooktop to access the cabinets can result in burns. You can reduce the risk of burns by installing a range hood that extends at least 4 3/4" (12 cm) past the bottom of the cabinets. 13 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Correct use The oven becomes very hot while in use. Use caution to ensure that you are not burned on the heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven. Use pot holders when placing food in the oven, adjusting the racks, etc. in a hot oven. Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Do not let food sit in the oven for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear proper apparel while operating the appliance. Do not heat unopened containers of food in the oven, pressure may cause the containers to burst and result in injury. Never pour cold water onto hot surfaces in a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel in the oven. To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements. 14 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before placing or removing food. To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before cleaning by hand. Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may trip over it or be injured by it. Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use water on grease fires.Turn off the oven immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the oven door closed. Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing agent or foam fire extinguisher. Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces. Do not use the oven to heat the room. The high temperatures radiated could cause objects near the oven to catch fire. WARNING NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven. WARNING NEVER use this appliance as storage space. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the oven. WARNING NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard. 15 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Broiling food for an excessively long time can cause it to dry out and may result in the food catching fire. Do not exceed recommended broiling times. Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high broiling temperatures. Do not use broiling functions for crisping rolls or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use the Conv Bake (Convection Bake)mode. Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances, combust on the hot heating elements. Plastic containers, which are not heat-resistant, melt and may ignite at high temperatures and can damage the oven. Use only plastic containers that are indicated by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in ovens. When residual heat is used to keep food warm, the high level of humidity and condensation can cause damage in the oven. The control panel, countertop or cabinetry may also be damaged. Do not switch the oven off completely while food is inside it, but select the lowest possible temperature for the oven mode you are using. This will ensure the fan will automatically continue to run. It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the interior of the oven. To avoid damage, do not place aluminum foil, pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor. This can cause a build up of heat that will damage the oven floor. Do not slide pots or pans on the oven floor. This could scratch and damage the surface. 16 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The door can support a maximum weight of 33 lbs (15 kg). Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy objects on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged. This oven must only be used for cooking food. Fumes, vapors or heat given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials could be hazardous. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Do not let metal objects (aluminum foil, pans) come in contact with the heating element. Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with or get caught in the oven door. When baking frozen pizzas or pies, place them on the wire rack lined with parchment paper. Do not use the baking tray or the roasting pan for frozen foods with a large surface area. The tray or pan could become warped and difficult to remove from the oven when hot. Frozen foods like french fries, chicken nuggets, etc. can be baked on the baking tray. 17 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Cleaning and maintenance Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this oven. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Only clean parts listed in these Operating and Installation Instructions.

Only bake cakes, pizza, french fries, etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them. Operating modes Depending on how you would like the food prepared, you can use Conv Bake (Convection Bake) or Bake. Bakeware The bakeware used depends on the oven mode chosen and how the food is prepared. – Conv Bake (Convection Bake): Baking tray, Universal tray, any heatresistant baking dishes. – Bake: For delicate foods avoid dark baking dishes made of metal, enamel, darkened tin, or matt aluminum. – Always place baking pans on the wire rack. Position rectangular pans with the longer side across the width of the rack. This will allow for optimum heat distribution and even baking results. – When baking cakes with fruit toppings or deep cakes, place the pan on a baking sheet to catch any spillages. Parchment paper / Greasing the pan All Miele accessories (baking tray, universal tray, perforated baking tray and round baking dish) are treated with PerfectClean finish. 46 Surfaces treated with PerfectClean finish generally do not need to be greased or covered with parchment paper. Parchment paper is only needed with: – anything with a high salt content (e.g. pretzels, bread sticks), because sodium can damage the PerfectClean surface; – meringues or dishes with a high eggwhite content, because they are more likely to stick, – frozen food cooked on the wire oven rack. Bake Temperature Baking duration As a general rule, select the lower temperature given in the chart. Check if the food is cooked at the end of the shortest duration quoted. To check if a cake is ready insert a wooden skewer or toothpick into the center, it should come out clean. Choosing a baking temperature higher than those recommended may reduce the cooking time, but will lead to uneven browning, and unsatisfactory cooking results. Preheating It is always necessary to preheat the oven cavity. Select the operating mode and temperature. Preheat the oven for about 15 minutes with the door closed. As soon as the oven cavity is preheated, you can put the food in the oven. Shelf level The shelf level on which you place your food to bake will depend on the oven mode and the number of trays being used. – Conv Bake (Convection Bake) 1 Tray: level 3 2 trays: levels 3+5 – Bake 1 tray: level 3 Bake moist baked goods and cakes/ pies on no more than two levels at the same time. 47 Roast Always follow USDA guidelines on food safety. Operating modes Depending on how you would like the food prepared, you can use Conv Bake (Convection Bake) or Bake. Cookware Any heat-resistant cookware can be used: Wire oven rack, grilling and roasting insert (if available) on top of the universal tray, roasting pans, heatresistant glass/earthen/cast iron cookware and roasting bags. Temperature As a general rule, select the lower temperature provided in the chart. If higher temperatures are used, the meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through. When cooking with Conv Bake (Convection Bake), select a temperature approx. 25°F (20°C) lower than when using Bake. Select a temperature of approx. 25°F (10°C) lower than quoted in the roasting chart for meat weighing more than 6.5 lbs (3 kg). The roasting process will take longer, but the meat will cook evenly through and the skin or crackling will not be too thick. When roasting on the rack, set a temperature approx. 10° lower than if using an oven dish. 48 Preheating It is always necessary to preheat the oven cavity. Select the operating mode and temperature. Preheat the oven for about 15 minutes with the door closed. As soon as the oven cavity is preheated, you can put the food in the oven. Shelf levels In most cases level 3 should be used. With large items, such as a turkey, use level 1 or 2. Tips – Browning: Browning only occurs towards the end of the roasting time. Remove the lid about halfway through the roasting time if a more intensive browning result is desired. – Resting time: At the end of the program, take the roast out of the oven, cover with aluminum foil and let stand for about 10 minutes. This helps retain the juices when the meat is sliced. – Roast Chicken: For a crisp skin, baste the poultry 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time with lightly salted water. Slow Roasting This cooking method is ideal for cooking beef, pork, veal or lamb when a tender result is desired. Preheat the oven with the universal tray and wire rack for approx. 15 minutes. First, using a cooktop sear the meat on all sides to seal in the juices. While the oven is preheating, sear the meat on all sides on the cooktop. Then place the meat in a preheated oven. It will be cooked at a low temperature for an extended time allowing the meat to become very tender. The meat will rest and the juices start to circulate evenly throughout. This gives the meat a very tender and juicy result. Tips – Use fresh, lean meat that has been trimmed. Remove the bones before cooking. – When searing, use a suitable cooking oil or fat that can withstand high temperatures (e.g. clarified butter, vegetable oil). – Do not cover the meat during cooking. Cooking will take approx. 2-4 hours, depending on the size and weight of the meat, as well as the desired degree of doneness and browning. Operation Use the universal tray with the broiling and roasting insert. Slide the universal tray and rack onto shelf level 3. Burn hazard! Use pot holders when inserting, removing or turning hot food, or when adjusting shelves, etc. in a hot oven. Place the seared meat on the universal tray. Allow the meat to finish cooking as desired. On ovens with a clock/timer, you can set the cooking process to finish automatically (see“Clock/Timer Setting the cooking duration”). After the cooking program – Meat can be carved straight from the oven. It does not need to rest. – The meat can be left in the oven after the program is complete. This will not affect results in any way. – The meat is at an ideal temperature to eat straight away. Serve on prewarmed plates with a hot sauce or gravy to keep warm. Cooking time / Core temperatures Always follow USDA guidelines on food safety. Select Bake and a temperature of 175-225°F (80-100°C). 49 Slow Roasting Meat Time [min] Core Temp. [°F / °C] ** 80–100 138 / 59 50–70 118 / 48 – medium 100–130 135 / 57 – well done 160–190 156 / 69 Pork tenderloin 80–100 145 / 63 Smoked pork chop * 140–170 154 / 68 Veal fillet 80–100 140 / 60 Veal loin * 100–130 145 / 63 50–80 140 / 60 Fillet of beef Roast beef – rare Saddle of lamb * * ** boneless If desired, use a roast probe to monitor the core temperature. 50 Broil Danger of burns! Temperature Broil with the oven door closed. If you broil with the door open the hot air will escape from the oven before it has been cooled by the cooling fan. The controls will get hot. As a general rule, select the lower temperature given in the chart. If higher temperatures are used, the meat will brown on the outside, but will not be properly cooked through. Preheating Oven modes Broil / Conv Broil (Convection Broil) Always preheat the oven for about 15 minutes with the door closed before Broiling. For broiling thin cuts of meat and browning. Shelf level The entire browning/broiling element will become red hot to produce the necessary heat. Select the shelf level according to the thickness of the food. Dishes – Conv Broil (Convection Broil): level 2 or 3 – Broil: level 4 or 5 Broiling duration Place the grilling and roasting insert (if available) on the rack. Then also place the universal tray on a second rack in shelf 1 to catch any juices that drip from the meat. – Flat pieces of fish and meat usually take 3–6 minutes per side. When broiling thicker pieces, each side will take a bit longer. Make sure that the pieces have roughly the same thickness so that their broiling times do not vary too greatly. – Turn the food halfway through cooking. The use of the grilling and roasting insert can reduce excessive smoke. 51 Broil Testing doneness Always follow USDA guidelines for safe food temperatures. Tip: If the surface of a thicker cut of meat is browned but the center is still raw, move the food to a lower level or reduce the temperature and continue cooking. This will stop the surface from becoming too dark. Preparing food for broiling Rinse the meat under cold water and pat dry. Do not season the meat with salt before broiling, this will draw out the juices. Brush the meat with oil, if necessary. Do not use other types of fat as they can easily burn and cause smoke. Broil Place the grilling and roasting insert (if available) on the wire oven rack. Place the food on top. Select the Broil operating mode. Turn the temperature selector to Broil (). Preheat the Browning/Broiling element for approx. 15 minutes with the door closed. Danger of burns! When the oven is hot use pot holders to insert, remove or turn the food, or when adjusting the oven shelves, etc. Place the universal tray on a second wire oven rack und place both on level 1. Place the food on the appropriate shelf level (see the “Broiling chart”). Close the door. Turn the food halfway through cooking. 52 Defrost The oven cavity lighting should be switched on permanently. If the oven cavity lighting switches off after 15 seconds, change the setting and select the status (see the “Timer – Changing the factory default settings” chapter). Defrosting durations The duration needed for defrosting depends on the type and weight of the frozen food: Frozen food Chicken Use Conv Bake (Convection Bake) without setting the temperature to gently defrost food. The fan will turn on and circulate air at room temperature around the oven cavity. Danger of salmonella poisoning. It is particularly important to observe food hygiene rules when defrosting poultry. Always observe USDA food safety guidelines. Do not use the liquid produced during defrosting. Meat Sausage Fish Strawberries Butter cake Bread [oz/g] 28/800 17.5/500 35/1,000 17.5/500 35/1,000 10.5/300 17.5/500 17.5/500 [min] 90–120 60–90 90–120 30–50 60–90 30–40 20–30 30–50 Weight / Defrosting duration Tips – Remove the packaging and place the frozen food on the universal tray or in a suitable bowl or dish. – Use the universal tray with the rack placed on top of it for defrosting poultry. This way the food will not be lying in the defrosted liquid. – Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost until the food has started to thaw. The surface will then be sufficiently thawed to take herbs and seasoning. 53 Canning Always follow the USDA canning guidelines. Canning containers Danger of injury! Do not use the appliance to heat up or can food in sealed jars or containers. Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode causing damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and scalding. Only use jars designed for canning: – Canning jars – Jars with twist-off lids After canning Danger of burns! Use pot holders when removing the jars from the oven. Take the jars out of the oven. Cover the jars with a towel and leave to set for approx. 24 hours. Make sure all jars are closed properly when storing them. 54 Dehydrate Dehydrating is a traditional method of preserving fruit, certain vegetables and herbs. It is important that fruit and vegetables are ripe and not bruised before they are dehydrated. Prepare the food for dehydrating. – Peel and core apples, and cut into slices 1/4" (.5 cm) thick. – Core plums if necessary. – Peel, core and cut pears into wedges. – Peel and slice bananas. Reduce the temperature if condensation begins to form in the oven. Danger of burns! Use pot holders when removing the dehydrated food from the oven. Allow the fruit or vegetables to cool down after dehydrating. Dried fruit must be completely dry, but also soft and elastic. Juice should not escape when cut. Store in sealed glass jars or tins. – Clean mushrooms, then either halve or slice them. – Remove parsley and dill from the stem. Distribute the food evenly over the roasting pan. Select the Conv Bake (Convection Bake) operating mode. Select a temperature of 175-225°F (80–100°C). Place the universal tray on shelf level 3. When using Conv Bake (Convection Bake) you can dehydrate on levels 2+4 at the same time. Turn the food to be dried halfway through the dehydrating time. Food to be dried Dehydrating time Fruit 2–8 hours Vegetables 3–8 hours Herbs 50–60 minutes 55 Frozen food Tips Cakes, pizza, baguettes – Bake on parchment paper placed on the wire oven rack. Do not use the baking tray or the universal tray for frozen foods with a large surface area. The tray could become warped and difficult to remove from the oven when hot. Additional use will make the distortion worse. – Use the lowest temperature recommended by the manufacturer. French fries, croquettes and similar items – These items can be cooked on the baking tray or universal tray. Place baking parchment on the tray so that they cook gently. – Use the lowest temperature recommended by the manufacturer. – Turn several times during cooking. Preparation Eating food which has been cooked correctly is important for good health. Select the oven mode and temperatures recommended by the manufacturer. Preheat the oven. Place the food in the preheated oven on the recommended shelf level. Check the food at the end of the shortest time recommended on the packaging. 56 Cleaning and care Burn hazard! Unsuitable cleaning agents Make sure the heating elements are turned off and allowed to cool completely. To avoid damaging surfaces when cleaning, do not use: Risk of injury! The steam from a steam cleaner could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the range. Do not spray any liquids, such as cleaning agent, into the openings on the bottom and top of the oven cavity. Prevent liquids from getting into the openings of the bottom and top of the oven cavity. All surfaces can discolor or be damaged if unsuitable cleaning agents are used. The front of the oven, in particular, will be damaged by oven cleaners and descalers. All surfaces are susceptible to scratching. Scratches on glass surfaces may cause a breakage. Immediately remove any residues left by cleaning agents. – Cleaners containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides – Lime removers on the front of the ovens – Abrasive cleaning agents, such as scouring powder, scouring cream, pumice stones – Solvent-based cleaners – Stainless steel cleaners – Dishwasher cleaners – Glass cleaners – Ceramic cooktop cleaners – Hard, abrasive sponges and brushes, such as pot scrubbers or used sponges that still contain traces of abrasive cleaner – Eraser sponges – Sharp metal scrapers – Steel wool – Spot cleaners – Oven cleaners – Stainless steel scouring pads If stains and food residues are allowed to remain on surfaces for a longer period of time, it may no longer be possible to remove them. Continued use without cleaning will make the oven much harder to clean. Remove any soiling immediately. 57 Cleaning and care The accessories are not dishwashersafe. – Soiling caused by spilled fruit juices and cake mixtures is best removed while the oven is still warm. Use caution and make sure the oven is not too hot. – To make cleaning easier, you can dismantle the oven door and remove the side runners. Normal soiling There is a seal around the oven interior which seals the inside of the door. Take care not to rub, damage or move the gasket. Remove normal soiling immediately using a clean sponge with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a clean, damp microfiber cloth. After cleaning, ensure that any detergent residue is removed with clean water. This is particularly important when cleaning surfaces treated with PerfectClean enamel as detergent residue can impair the non-stick properties. After cleaning, dry the surfaces with a soft cloth. 58 Cleaning and care Stubborn soiling Spilled fruit and roasting juices may cause lasting discoloration or matte patches on enameled surfaces. This does not affect the functional characteristics of the finish. Do not attempt to remove these marks. Clean them following the instructions given here. Baked on deposits can be removed with a glass scraper or with a nonabrasive steel wool pad, warm water and liquid dish soap. Non-Miele oven cleaner must only be used in a cold oven and not left on for longer than a maximum of 10 minutes. If necessary, the scouring pad on the back of a non-scratching washing-up sponge can be used to remove the soiling after the holding time. After cleaning, remove all oven cleaning agent residues thoroughly with clean water, and then dry the surfaces. Very stubborn soiling on PerfectClean surfaces can be cleaned using Miele Oven Cleaner. This cleaner must only be applied to cold surfaces. Follow the instructions on the packaging. 59 Cleaning and care Operating mode and temperature selectors in stainless steel The operating mode and temperature selectors may become discolored if they are not cleaned regularly. Do not clean the operating mode or temperature selectors in a dishwasher or with a stainless steel cleaner. Clean the operating mode and temperature selectors using a soft sponge, warm water, and a small amount of liquid dish soap. 60 Cleaning and care Self Cleaning the oven interior Instead of cleaning the oven by hand you can use the Self Clean program . During self cleaning the oven interior is heated up to over 750°F (400°C). Any residual soiling is broken down and reduced to ash by the high temperatures. This oven has three levels for self cleaning, each with a different duration: – Level 1 for light soiling, – Level 2 for heavier soiling, – Level 3 for very heavy soiling. Once the Self Clean program has been started, the door will automatically locked. The door cannot be opened again until the program has ended. If desired, the timer can be used to delay the start of the Self Clean program. At the end of the program any residues, such as ash from the cleaning process, can be easily wiped away. Preparing for the Self Clean program The high temperatures used during self cleaning will damage accessories that are not designed for cleaning in the Self Clean program. Please remove these accessories from the oven before starting the Self Clean program. This also applies to accessories purchased separately. The following accessories are suitable for cleaning during the Self Clean program and can remain in the oven: – Shelf runners – Wire oven rack HBBR 30-2 Take all accessories that are not “Self Clean safe” out of the oven. Do not put accessories that are suited for the Self Clean program on the top level, but rather use the levels below. If not removed, coarse soiling can smoke and cause the Self Clean program to turn itself off. Remove any coarse soiling before running the Self Clean program. 61 Cleaning and care Starting the Self Clean program Risk of burns!
