appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work should only be performed by a qualified technician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
8
Before installing the oven, check for externally visible damage. Do
not operate a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the oven can only be guaranteed if
it is connected to the power supply.
Operating a damaged appliance can result in microwave leakage
and present a hazard to the user. Do not use the appliance if:
– the door is warped or bent,
– the door hinges are loose,
– holes or cracks are visible in the housing, the door, the door seal
or the oven interior walls.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity
must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding
system. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to properly
grounded outlet. See “Electrical connection - GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS”. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement
be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house
checked by a qualified electrician.
Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been
installed correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified
technician.
Before installation, make sure that the voltage and frequency
listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical
supply. This data must correspond to prevent injury and machine
damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the
work area by
– removing the fuse,
– “tripping” the circuit breaker, or
– unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9
Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Do not use an extension cord
to connect this appliance to electricity.
The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed
within cabinetry.
Danger of electric shock!
Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance.
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as
intended by the manufacturer.
In order for the oven to function correctly, it requires an adequate
supply of cool air. Ensure that the air flow is not impaired (e.g.
insulation in the cabinetry). Also be sure that the cool air supply is
not heated by other sources nearby.
If the oven is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the oven is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up
behind the closed door and cause damage to the oven, cabinetry
and flooring. Do not close the door until the oven has completely
cooled down.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
Correct use
Danger of burns!
The Speed Oven becomes hot when in use.
Depending on the mode selected, you could burn yourself on the
heating elements, oven interior, cooked food or oven accessories.
Wear pot holders when placing food in or removing food, or when
making adjustments to items being cooked in the hot Speed
Oven.
Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not
glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause
burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and
the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact
with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
Do not let food sit in the oven for an extended period of time
before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or
sickness.
It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly
throughout the food being cooked.
This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and
observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added
to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.
Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let
potholders come in contact with oil or grease. Do not substitute dish
towels or other bulky items for potholders. Do not let potholders
touch hot heating elements.
Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear
proper apparel while operating the appliance.
Do not heat unopened containers of food in the oven, pressure
may cause the containers to burst and result in injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height
while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is
hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements.
Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before
placing or removing food.
To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before
cleaning by hand.
Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may
trip over it or be injured by it.
Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or
fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use the oven for frying.
Do not use water on grease fires. Turn off the Speed Oven
immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the door closed.
Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an
oven, or near cooking surfaces.
To avoid fueling any flames, do not open the Speed Oven door if
smoke occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by turning
the appliance off and disconnecting it from the power. Do not open
the door until the smoke has dissipated.
Do not use the oven to heat the room. The high temperatures
radiated could cause objects near the oven to catch fire.
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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
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.
Please be aware that durations for using microwave power are
often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting
than when using modes without microwave power. Excessively long
cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even
cause it to catch fire.
Be sure you keep to recommended broiling times when using the
“Broil” mode. Do not use the “Microwave” mode for dehydrating
items such as flowers, herbs, bread, or rolls. Never use “Broil”
modes for pre-baked products such as bread or rolls or for drying
flowers or herbs. Use “Convection Bake” for these items and
monitor the process carefully.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol
evaporates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances,
combust on the hot heating elements.
Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow
recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode.
Fire hazard! Using Microwave or Microwave combination
modes with plastic dishes which are not microwave safe can cause
them to melt and damage the appliance.
Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal,
aluminum foil, lead, crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive
plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper
covered wire ties. Do not use plastic containers with the foil lid only
partially removed (see “Containers suitable for microwave use”).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
13
For modes without microwave power: Plastic containers which are
not suitable for use in an oven can melt at high temperatures and
can even damage the oven or catch fire.
Only use containers which are declared by the manufacturer as
being suitable for use in an oven. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on use.
Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when reheating or
cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or
other inflammable materials.
Before using single-use containers, make sure they are suitable for
use in microwave ovens (See “Containers suitable for microwave use
- Plastics”).
Do not reheat food in the oven in heat-retaining bags which are
intended for use in normal ovens.
These heat-retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminum
foil which reflects microwaves.This reflected energy can, in turn,
cause the outer paper covering to become hot and ignite.
The Speed Oven can be damaged when using Microwave or
Microwave Combination programs if it is empty or incorrectly loaded.
For this reason please do not use modes with microwave power to
pre-heat cookware or to dry herbs.
Instead use Convection Bake for these procedures.
When using residual heat to keep food in the oven warm, the high
humidity and amount of condensation in the Speed Oven can cause
corrosion. The control panel, the countertop or the cabinetry can
also suffer damage.
Always cover food when using Microwave . Once food is cooked
through, use a lower power for continued cooking to reduce the
amount of steam produced from the food. When using residual heat
do not turn the Speed Oven off. Instead set the temperature to the
lowest setting and leave the oven on the selected mode. The fan will
then remain on automatically and dissipate the moisture.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
14
It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven
to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the
interior of the oven.
A build-up of heat can cause damage to the coating on the floor
of the oven.
When using Convection Bake do not line the floor of the Speed
Oven with anything, e.g. aluminum foil or oven liners. Universal trays
and glass trays should not be placed directly on the oven floor.
The door can support a maximum weight of 17.5lbs (8kg). Do not
sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy objects
on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door
and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged.
When heating food and drinks, remember that the heat is created
in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The
dish is only warmed by the heat of the food. The temperature of the
container is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid
in it.
Check the food for the desired temperature after removing it. This is
particularly important when preparing food for babies. Shake or
stir baby milk and food thoroughly after heating, and try it for
temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby.
The Speed Oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting items.
Items can get extremely hot and there is a danger of burning when
the item is removed from the appliance.
Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or
bottles. With baby bottles, the screw top and nipple must be
removed.
Otherwise pressure will build up which can cause the bottle or
container to explode. Risk of injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15
When boiling and in particular when re-heating liquids, milk,
sauces etc., using microwave power without a 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 scalding
and burning! The formation of bubbles can be so strong that the
pressure forces the oven door open, with a danger of injury and
damage.
Before cooking or reheating, thoroughly stir the liquid. Then wait at
least 20seconds before removing the container from the oven.
During cooking and reheating you can also place a glass rod or
similar in the container and use as a boiling rod, if available.
Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power
only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first.
The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.
Eggs in their shells will explode if cooked with microwave power,
even after taking them out of the oven.
They can only be cooked in their shells using microwave heat in a
specially designed egg-boiling device available from specialist
shops. Hard-boiled eggs must not be reheated in the microwave
oven either as they too will explode.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage,
potatoes and eggplant, should be pierced or cut in several places to
allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.
To check food temperature, first interrupt the cooking process.
Only use a thermometer specifically approved for food use to
measure the temperature of the food. Do not use a thermometers
containing mercury or liquid as these are not suitable for use with
very high temperatures and break very easily
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
16
Do not use the oven to heat up heating pads filled with grains, gel,
etc.
These pads can ignite even after they have been removed from the
Speed Oven.
This oven must only be used for cooking food. Fumes, vapors or
heat given off by glues, plastics or flammable liquids and materials
could be hazardous. Do not use it as a dryer, kiln, dehumidifier, etc.
Do not 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
17
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.
Scratches on the door glass can cause the glass to break.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp metal
tools to clean the door glass.
To avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surfaces of the Speed
Oven, remove any splashes on the interior walls of the oven from
food or liquids containing salt.
Do not use a protective coating to line the oven and do not use
commercial oven cleaner unless certified for use in a self-cleaning
oven.
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from
other manufacturers are used, the warranty will become void.

The system lock will remain activated
even after a power failure.
Safety shutoff
A mode without microwave can be
started without selecting a cooking
duration. To prevent continuous use
and avoid the risk of fire, the oven will
turn itself off automatically after a time
between 1hour and 12hours
depending on the mode and
temperature selected.
If a combi mode is followed in quick
succession by another program using
microwave power, the magnetron
(which produces the microwaves)
cannot be turned on again until approx.
10seconds have elapsed. Therefore,
wait a short time before starting the
second process.
Cooling fan
The cooling fan comes on automatically
when a cooking program is started. The
cooling fan mixes hot air from the oven
cavity with cool room air before venting
it out into the kitchen through vents
located between the appliance door
and the control panel.
The cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after a cooking process to prevent
moisture building up in the oven, on the
control panel or on the surrounding
cabinetry. It will turn itself off
automatically after a while.
PerfectClean surfaces
The revolutionary PerfectClean finish is
a smooth, non-stick surface that is
exceptionally easy to clean.
Food and grime from baking or roasting
are easily removed.
Do not use ceramic knives, as these
will scratch the PerfectClean surface.
Follow the instructions in the “Cleaning
and Care” section of this manual so the
anti-stick and easy cleaning properties
are retained.
The oven compartment and the rack
have a PerfectClean finish.

How it works
The Speed Oven contains a high-
frequency tube called a magnetron. It
converts electrical energy into
microwaves. The microwaves are then
distributed evenly throughout the metal
sides of the oven interior to reach the
food from all sides.
In order for microwaves to reach the
food, they must be able to penetrate the
cooking container being used.
Microwaves can pass through
porcelain, glass, cardboard, and
plastics, but not metal. Therefore, do
not use containers that are made of
metal or contain metal (in the form of
gold or silver trim, for example). The
metal reflects microwaves and this
could cause sparking. The microwaves
cannot be absorbed.
The microwaves will pass through any
suitable cookware and find their way
directly into the food. All food contains
moisture molecules which, when
subjected to microwave energy, begin
to oscillate at a rate of 2.5billion times
per second. The friction caused by
these vibrations creates heat, which
first starts developing around the
outside of the food and then slowly
penetrates it toward the center. The
more water a food contains, the faster it
is reheated or cooked. The heat is
produced directly in the food.
Advantages
– Food can generally be cooked in a
microwave with little or no liquid or
oil.
– Defrosting, heating, and cooking is
faster than when using a
conventional cooktop or oven.
– Nutrients, such as vitamins and
minerals, are generally retained.
– The natural color, texture, and taste
of food are not impaired.
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.
Microwave power level
The following power levels can be
selected:

Selecting cookware
42
Microwaves are reflected by metal.
They pass through glass, porcelain,
plastic and cardboard.
They are absorbed by food.
Non-microwave safe dishes can
suffer damage or cause damage to
the oven when using the the
Microwave (Solo) and
Combination modes with Microwave.
Risk of Fire!
The material and shape of containers
used affect cooking results and times.
Circular and oval containers work best.
The food will heat more evenly than in a
square container.
Containers suitable for
microwave use
Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass
are ideal for use with microwave power.
Exception: Do not use crystal glass
as it contains lead which can crack
or shatter in a microwave.
Porcelain
Porcelain is a suitable material.
Exception: Do not use porcelain with
gold, silver or cobalt blue edging or
items with hollow knobs or handles,
as insufficient ventilation may cause
a build-up of pressure.
Earthenware
Decorated earthenware is only suitable
if the decoration is beneath an all-over
glaze.
Danger of burning! Wear pot holders
when removing earthenware dishes
from the Speed Oven.
Selecting cookware
43
Plastics
Plastic containers and plastic
disposable containers may only be
used with Microwave (Solo) if they
have been declared as suitable for
microwave use by the manufacturer. To
protect the environment, it is best to
avoid using single-use containers.
Do not leave the Speed Oven
unattended when reheating or
cooking food in disposable
containers made of plastic, paper or
other flammable materials.
Plastic cookware must be heat-
resistant up to at least 230°F (110°C).
Otherwise the cookware will deform
and possibly come in contact with
the food.
Only use plastic dishes in the
Microwave and combination
modes.
– Plastic microwave containers
Readily available from retail stores.
– Styrofoam containers
Disposable containers, such as trays
made from styrofoam, can only be used
for very short, timed warming and
reheating of food.
– Plastic cooking bags
Plastic cooking bags can be used for
cooking and reheating food.
They should be pierced beforehand so
that steam can escape. This prevents a
build-up of steam and reduces the rish
of the bag bursting.
There are also cooking bags that do not
need to be pierced. Following the
instructions listed on the packaging.
– Roasting bags
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Fire hazard!
Do not use metal clips, plastic clips
containing metal parts, or paper ties
containing wire. There is a danger
that they will ignite when heated.
– Melamine
Plastic tableware made from melamine
is not suitable for use in this oven.
Melamine absorbs microwave energy
and becomes very hot. Before
purchasing plasticware be sure that is is
microwave-safe.
Selecting cookware
44
Unsuitable containers for
microwave use
Dishes with hollow knobs or
handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which
has gathered in the hollow recesses
can cause pressure to build up and
the item can explode.
Metal
Metal reflects microwaves and
obstructs the cooking process.
Do not use metal containers, aluminum
foil, or metal cutlery and dishes with a
metallic finish (gold rims or cobalt blue,
forexample) with Microwave
combination programs.
Do not use containers where the foil
lid has not been completely removed
as small pieces of foil can cause
sparking.
Exceptions:
The rack supplied is only suitable for
cooking in Combination modes and
modes that do not use microwave. It
is not suitable for cooking in the
Microwave (Solo) mode.
The rack should be used on a shelf
level. Do not place it on the floor of
the oven.
– Metal bakeware can be used with
Microwave combination programs.
– Ready-meals in aluminum foil trays
can be defrosted and reheated using
microwave power as long as the lid is
removed.
Using aluminum foil trays can cause
crackling and sparking. Therefore,
place aluminum foil trays on the
glass tray and not on the wire rack.
Make sure that the aluminum tray is
at least 3/4"(2cm) from the oven
walls at all times. It must not touch
the walls.
However, as food is only heated from
the top, it is better to remove the food
from the aluminum foil container and
transfer it to a dish suitable for use in a
microwave oven. The heat distribution
will be more even.
Selecting cookware
45
– Aluminum foil pieces
For even defrosting and to avoid
overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of
meat, poultry, or fish, small pieces of
aluminum foil may be used to mask thin
pieces for the last few minutes of the
program.
Make sure that the aluminum foil is
at least 3/4"(2cm) from the oven
walls at all times. It must not touch
the walls.
– Metal meat skewers or clamps
These should only be used if they are
very small in comparison to the size of
the cut of meat.
Glazes and colors
Some glazes and colors contain metal
and are therefore unsuitable for
microwave modes.
Wood
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
Moisture contained in the wood
evaporates when exposed to
microwave energy, causing the wood to
dry and crack.
Testing dishes for their
suitability
If in doubt as to whether glass,
earthenware or porcelain plates or
dishes are suitable for use with
microwave energy, a simple test can be
performed:
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1
and place the empty item you wish to
test on the glass tray. Fill a suitable
glass with water and also place this
on the glass tray.
Close the door.
Select Microwave .
Set the highest microwave power ()
and a duration of 30seconds.
Confirm with OK and start the
program.
If a cracking noise is heard
accompanied by sparks during the
test, turn the appliance off
immediately. Any cookware which
causes this reaction is unsuitable for
use with microwave power. If in
doubt, contact the cookware
manufacturer.
This test cannot be used to check
whether hollow knobs or handles are
properly ventilated.
Selecting cookware
46
Placing the dish in the Speed
Oven
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1.
The dish containing the food should
always be placed in the middle of the
glass tray.
Placing the food directly on the floor
of the oven would give unsatisfactory
and uneven results as the microwaves
would not be able to reach the food
from below.
Lid
The lid offers the following advantages:
– Prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
– Speeds up the cooking process.
– Prevents food from drying out.
– Helps keep the oven interior clean.
When using Microwave (Solo),
always cover the food with a lid or
cover made of microwave-safe glass
or plastic.
Suitable covers are available from
retail outlets.
Alternatively, use plastic wrap
recommended for use in a microwave
oven (pierce as instructed by the
manufacturer). Heat can cause normal
plastic wrap to distort and fuse with
the food.
Selecting cookware
47
The cover can withstand
temperatures of up to 320°F (110°C).
At higher temperatures (e.g.,in
Broil or Convection Bake
mode) the plastic may distort and
fuse with the food. Only use a cover
in Microwave mode.
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 side.
The cover could get too hot and start
to melt.
When reheating food, do not use a
cover for for:
– breaded food
– food which requires a crisp finish,
e.g.toast
– food which you are reheating in a
Combi mode
Otherwise pressure can build up,
causing the container to explode and
posing a severe risk of injury.
Do not cook or reheat food or liquids
in sealed containers, jars, or bottles.
Open containers beforehand and
with baby bottles, the screw top and
teat must be removed.
Energy saving tips
48
– Remove any accessories from the
oven that you do not require for
cooking.
– If possible, do not open the door
during a program. If the door is
opened during a program that is not
using microwave power, the heat in
the oven automatically turns off. The
fan continues to run. As soon as the
door is closed again, the program will
continue.
– If a temperature range is given, it is
best to select the lower temperature
and check the food after the shortest
cooking time given.
– Convection Broil can be used for
a wide variety of foods. Lower
temperatures can be used than with
other Broil modes which use the
maximum temperature setting.
– The factory default setting “ – ”
for the time of day display will
consume the least amount of energy.
– With the factory default setting “ –
” the oven interior lighting turns off
automatically after 15 seconds. It can
be turned on again at any time by
touching .
– When cooking with temperatures
above 285°F (140°C) and cooking
durations longer than 30 minutes,
turn the temperature selector down
approx. 5 minutes before the end of
cooking. The oven heating elements
will turn off and the residual heat will
finish cooking the food.
– The oven turns off automatically if a
button is not pressed to save power.
The amount of time before the oven
turns off depends on the selected
settings, e.g. oven mode,
temperature, cooking duration, etc.

Bake
63
Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, french fries,
etc. until they are golden brown. Do
not overcook them.
Operating modes
Convection Bake
Recommended for cookies, quick
batters, choux pastry, phyllo, and
strudel.
Combi Bake
Recommended for baked goods that
require a longer baking time, such as
doughs.
The baking time is shortened.
A maximum power level of must not
be exceeded throughout the entire
baking time.
Bakeware
The bakeware used depends on the
oven mode chosen and how the food is
prepared.
– Convection Bake
Bakeware made of any heat-resistant
material is suitable. Light-colored,
thin, non-reflective metal baking pans
can be used, but results may not be
as good as with dark non-reflective
bakeware.
– Combi Bake
Only use oven-safe dishware suitable
for microwave use (see “Suitable
containers for microwave use”), such
as oven-safe glass or ceramic dishes
as these allow microwaves through
them.
Metal containers reflect microwaves
so food will only cook from above.
Cooking durations would therefore be
longer and metal tins could also
cause sparking.Place the dish on the
glass tray such that it cannot touch
the oven walls. If the dish being used
causes sparking, do not use it for
combination cooking programs
again.
Parchment paper
Place french fries, croquettes and
similar types of food on paper.
Bake
64
Temperature
Select the suggested temperature if
possible.
Choosing a baking temperature higher
than those recommended may reduce
the cooking time, but will lead to
uneven browning, and unsatisfactory
cooking results.
Baking duration
Check if the food is cooked at the end
of the shortest duration quoted. To
check if a cake is ready insert a wooden
skewer or toothpick into the center, it
should come out clean.
Shelf levels
– Convection Bake
Cakes in bakeware: Level 1 from the
bottom
Flat baked goods (e.g. cookies):
Level 2 from the bottom
When cooking on 2 levels at one
time:
Levels 1+3 from the bottom or levels
2+3
– Combi Bake
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1
and place the bakeware on it.
Tips
– Setting the cooking duration. When
baking, the oven should not be set to
start after an extended period of time.
Otherwise the cake mixture or dough
will dry out, and the raising agents
will lose their effectiveness.
– Place cakes in rectangular bakeware
on the rack with the longer side
across the width of the oven for
optimum heat distribution and even
results.
Roast
65
Always observe the USDA guidelines
for food safety.
Operating modes
Convection Bake , Auto Roast
For roasting meat, fish and poultry
dishes in which a browned finish is
desired.
Combi Bake ,
Combi Auto Roast
The program duration is shorter with
these modes.
Set the microwave to the following
power levels for the entire roasting time:
– For meat and fish: ,
– For poultry: .
This combination program is not
suitable for cooking roast beef or
tenderloins. The center would be too
well cooked before the exterior is
browned.
Cookware
Please take into account the material of
your bakeware in your choice of oven
mode:
– Convection Bake / Auto Roast
:
Oven dishes, ovenproof ceramic
dishes and glass dishes.
Make sure that the pot and lid have
heat-resistant handles.
– Combi Bake /
Combi Auto Roast :
Dishes must be suitable for use in a
microwave oven and must not have
metal lids (see “Containers suitable
for microwave use”).
Roasting in a closed pan
Season the meat and place it in the
roasting dish. Dot with butter or
margarine or brush with oil if
necessary. For large lean cuts of meat
(4–6 lbs.) and fatty poultry, add about
1/2 cup of water to the dish.
When using a roasting bag, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Roasting on the rack
Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or
wrap with bacon.
Do not add too much liquid during
cooking as this will hinder the
browning process.
Roast
66
Temperature
Select the suggested temperature if
possible.
If higher temperatures are used, the
meat will brown on the outside, but will
not be properly cooked through.
Shelf levels
– Convection Bake / Auto Roast
:
Rack with meat on it on shelf level 1
– Combi Bake /
Combi Auto Roast :
Rack or glass tray with meat on it on
shelf level 1
Tips
– Resting time: At the end of the
program, take the roast out of the
oven, cover with aluminum foil and let
stand for about 10 minutes. This
helps retain the juices when the meat
is sliced.
– The larger the cut of meat, the lower
the temperature setting should be.
– Use a roast probe for accurate
cooking temperatures and best
results.
Broil
67
Danger of burns!
Broil with the oven door closed. If
you broil with the door open the hot
air will escape from the oven before
it has been cooled by the cooling
fan.
The controls will get hot.
Oven modes
Maxi Broil
For broiling thin cuts of meat and
browning.
The entire Browning / Broiling element
will get hot and glow red.
Convection Broil
For broiling thicker items, e.g. poultry or
London broil.
The Browning/Broiling element and the
fan switch on in alternating phases.
Cooking accessories
Broiling on the wire oven rack.
Brush the rack with oil, and place the
food on it. It is best to broil food of a
similar thickness at the same time so
that the broiling duration for each
item does not vary too greatly.
Temperature
– Maxi Broil
A fixed temperature is used for
broiling, i.e., the temperature is
automatically set by the oven and
cannot be changed.
– Convection Broil
As a general rule, select the
suggested temperature if possible. If
higher temperatures are used, the
meat will brown on the outside but
will not be properly cooked
through.Thin cuts can generally be
broiled at 400°F (220°C), thicker cuts
at 355-400°F (180-200°C).
Preheating
Always preheat the oven for about
5minutes with the door closed before
Broiling.
Do not set a microwave power level
during pre-heating.
Shelf levels
– Broil
Use shelf level 2 or 3 depending on
the thickness of the food.
– Convection Broil
Use shelf level 1 or 2 depending on
the thickness of the food.
Broil
68
Testing doneness
Always observe USDA food safety
guidelines.
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.
Clean fish as usual. To enhance the
flavor, salt or lemon can be added.
Broiling
PreHeat the browning/broiling
element for approx. 5 minutes with
the door closed.
Do not set a microwave power level
during pre-heating.
Place the food on the wire rack.
Select the required oven mode and
the temperature (only with
Convection Broil ).
Burn hazard!
When the oven is hot use pot holders
to insert, remove or turn the food, or
when adjusting the oven shelves,
etc.
Place the food on the appropriate
shelf level (see the “Broiling chart”).
Close the door.

Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking
70
Before defrosting, reheating
and cooking
Place food (frozen or unfrozen) in a
dish that is suitable for microwave
use, and cover it.
Place the dish in the middle of the
glass tray on shelf level 1.
With Microwave Combi modes
Use only microwave-safe and heat-
resistant cookware.
A lid is not usually required.
Never use a lid with Combi Auto Roast
as the food will not brown.
Place the glass tray on shelf level 2.
Place pre-made meals in aluminum
containers directly on the glass tray.
During the defrosting,
reheating and cooking process
Turn or stir the food several times.
Stir the food from the outside
towards the middle, as food heats
more quickly from the outside.
After defrosting, reheating and
cooking
Compensating times are resting periods
in which the temperature is uniformly
distributed in the food.
Allow the food to stand at room
temperature for a few minutes to
enable the heat to spread evenly
throughout the food.
Burn hazard!
After reheating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir the
food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger. Double check after
it has been left to stand.
Danger of burns!
Be careful when removing dishes
from the appliance. Although heat is
not normally produced in the
container itself by the microwaves
(apart from stoneware), heat transfer
from the food to the container may
be considerable, making the
container itself hot.
Use pot holders when removing
dishes.
Always ensure that food is sufficiently
cooked or reheated.
If you are unsure whether a
sufficiently high temperature has
been reached or whether the food is
sufficiently cooked, continue
reheating a little longer.
Always follow proper food safety
guidelines.
Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking
71
Tips on reheating
Danger of burns! Food for infants
and children must not be too hot.
Heat food for babies and children at
power level for only 30–
60seconds.
Otherwise pressure can build up,
causing the container to explode,
posing a severe risk of injury.
Do not cook or reheat food or liquids
in sealed containers, jars or bottles.
Otherwise pressure will build up
which can cause the bottle or
container to explode. Risk of injury.
Eggs may burst.
Never reheat hard boiled eggs using
Microwave , even without the
shell. The eggs can explode.
When boiling and in particular when
reheating liquids using microwave
power, 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. The formation of bubbles
can be so strong that the pressure
forces the oven door open.
To avoid this, always wait a minimum
of 20seconds before removing the
container from the oven and place a
suitable glass rod or utensil into the
cup or glass when heating liquids.
Cooking tips
Food with a thick skin or peel, such
as tomatoes, sausage, potatoes, and
egg plant, can burst when heated.
Pierce or score the skin of these
foods several times to allow steam to
escape.
Eggs heated in their shell can burst,
even after they have been removed
from the oven.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells using Microwave (Solo) in
a specially designed egg-boiling
device available from speciality
stores.
When heating shelled eggs, the yolk
may still burst after cooking.
Prick the yolk several times before
cooking to avoid this.
Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking
72
When to use Notes
Defrosting large quantities
of food at once, e.g. 4.5 lbs
(2 kg) fish
The glass tray can be used on shelf level 1 for
defrosting food.
Reheating food Always cover food when reheating it, except when
reheating fried food or food with breading.
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 meals Deep frozen meals can be defrosted and then
reheated or cooked in one process. Follow the
instructions on the package.
Tables for defrosting, reheating and cooking food using
Microwave (Solo)
The following notes apply to all tables:
Always follow USDA guidelines on food safety.
Take note of the recommended microwave power levels, durations and standing
times. These take the consistency, the quantity and the initial temperature of the
food into account.
In general you are recommended to select the middle duration.
Place the food on the glass tray and use shelf level 1.

Defrosting without Microwave power
76
To gently defrost food use the Defrost
mode.
When this mode is selected, the fan
turns on and circulates the air around
the oven cavity.
Risk of salmonella poisoning!
Be sure to observe proper hygiene
rules when defrosting poultry.
Do not use the liquid from the
defrosted poultry.
Tips
– Place the food to be defrosted on the
glass tray or in a suitable dish.
– Small pieces of poultry can be placed
on an upside down dish in the glass
tray. This way they will not be lying in
defrosting liquid.
– Use shelf level 1 or 2 depending on
the thickness of the food.
Canning
77
Always observe USDA food safety
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:
– “Convection Bake” : Jars with
screw-top lids.
– “Microwave” : Microwave-safe
bottling jars sealed with clips or clear
adhesive tape.
Sparking can be cause by metal
brackets on jars!
Close the jars with clear adhesive
tape or with clips suitable for
microwave use. Never use metal
clips or jars with screw-on lids.
Preparation
The instructions below are for 516
ounce (0.5 liter) glass jars.
Prepare the jars in the usual way. Fill
the jars up to 3/4" (2 cm) below the
rim.
Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1
and place the jars on it.

Make sure all jars are closed properly
when storing them.
Gentle Bake
80
The Gentle Bake mode is ideal for
casseroles and gratins which require a
crisp top.
Frozen food
81
Tips
Cakes, pizza, baguettes
– Bake on parchment paper placed on
the wire oven rack.
– Use the lowest temperature
recommended by the manufacturer.
French fries, croquettes and similar
items
– Place these frozen foods on the glass
tray.
Place parchment paper underneath.
– Use the lowest temperature
recommended by the manufacturer.
– Turn several times during cooking.
Preparation
Handling food carefully will help
protect your health.

temperatures recommended on the
food's packaging.
Preheat the oven.
Place the food in the preheated oven
on the shelf level recommended on
the packaging.
Check the food at the end of the
shortest time recommended on the
packaging.
Cleaning and care
82
Danger of burning!
The heater elements must be turned
off. Make sure the oven has cooled
down.
Risk of injury!
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach live electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
this appliance.
All surfaces could be discolored or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. The oven front is
particularly susceptible to damage
from oven cleaners.
All surfaces of this machine are
susceptible to scratching. Scratches
on glass can in some circumstances
lead to breakage.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Stubborn soiling may damage the
oven.
Once the oven has cooled clean the
oven, the inside of the door, and the
door seal. Waiting too long to clean
the oven will make if much more
difficult to clean.
Check the door and door seal for any
sign of damage. If any damage is
seen, the oven should not be used
again. Contact Miele.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids, or chlorides
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents on the oven front
– abrasive cleaning agents,
e.g.,powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,
– solvent-based cleaning agents
– stainless steel cleaning agents
– dishwasher cleaners
– glass cleaners
– cleaning agents for ceramic cooktops
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g.,pot scourers, brushes, or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents)
– eraser sponges
– sharp metal scrapers
– steel wool
– stainless steel scouring pads
– spot cleaning with mechanical
cleaning agents
– oven cleaners *
* These can, however, be used to
remove very heavy soiling from
PerfectClean treated surfaces
Cleaning and care
83
If soiling is allowed to sit for any
length of time, it may become
impossible to remove. If items are
used frequently without being
cleaned, it may become very difficult
to clean them.
Soiling is, therefore, best removed
after each use.
Only the glass tray is dishwasher
proof.
Tips
– Soiling caused by spilt juices and
cake mixtures is best removed while
the oven is still warm. Use caution
and make sure the oven is not too hot
- Danger of burns.
– The Browning/Broiling element can
be lowered for easier cleaning.
– To neutralize odors in the oven, put a
container of water with some lemon
juice in the oven and heat for a few
minutes.
Normal soiling
Moisture inside the oven can cause
damage.
Wipe out the oven with a damp cloth
so no excess moisture enters the
interior of the appliance through the
openings.
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.
Cleaning and care
84
Stubborn soiling
Spilled fruit and roasting juices may
cause lasting discoloration or matte
patches. This does not affect the
functional characteristics of the
finish.
Do not attempt to remove these
marks. Clean them following the
instructions given here.
Moisten stubborn soiling with a
solution of warm water and liquid
dish soap, leave for a few minutes to
take effect.
If necessary, the rough side of a dish
sponge can be used to remove the
soiling.
After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with
clean water, and dry with a soft cloth.
Stubborn soiling on PerfectClean
surfaces can be cleaned using Miele
Oven Cleaner. Follow the instructions
on the packaging.
Non-Miele oven cleaner must only be
used in a cold oven and not left on for
longer than a maximum of 10minutes.
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.
Cleaning and care
85
Lowering the Browning /
Broiling element
If the oven interior is very dirty, the
Browning / Broiling element can be

Frequently asked questions
88
Problem Possible cause and solution
An strange sound is
heard when the oven is
operating in microwave
mode.
Metal was used in the oven during a program with
microwave.
Check if there are sparks caused by using metal
dishes (see “Suitable containers for microwave
use”).
When using a program with microwave the dish was
covered with alumimum foil.
If necessary, remove the cover.
The wire oven rack was used during a program with
microwave.
Always use the glass tray for programs with
microwave.
The oven has turned
itself off.
The oven turns off automatically if a button is not

Turn the oven back on.
Baked goods are not
cooked properly after
following the times
given in the chart.
A different temperature than that given in the recipe
was used.
Select the temperature required for the recipe.
The ingredient quantities are different from those
given in the recipe.
Double check the recipe. The addition of more
liquid or more eggs will make a wetter mixture
which will take longer to cook.
The browning is
uneven.
The wrong temperature or shelf level was selected.
There will always be a slight unevenness. If the
unevenness is great, check whether the correct
temperature and shelf level were selected.
The cookware used was not right for the program
chosen. Bright, shiny pans are not very suitable.
These reflect heat, which means that the heat does
not penetrate to the food effectively, resulting in
uneven or poor browning.
Dark, matte pans are best for baking.
Frequently asked questions
89
Problem Possible cause and solution
The food is not
sufficiently heated or is
not cooked at the end
of a set duration when
using Microwave (Solo)
.
Check that the program was restarted after
interrupting a cooking process using microwave
power.
Restart the program to ensure the food is heated
or cooked properly.
When cooking for heating with microwave, the time
set was too short.
Check that the correct time is selected for the
microwave power level. The lower the microwave
power level the longer the cooking time.
The food has cooled
down too quickly after
being reheated or
cooked in microwave
mode.
Due to the microwave properties, the heat is
generated first at the edges of the food and is then
transferred to the center of the food. If the food is
heated with a high microwave power level the food
may be hot on the outside but not heated through to
the center.
When cooking foods with different sizes, such as
with menu cooking, a lower microwave power level
for a longer period of time is most suitable.
The oven lighting turns
off after a short time.
The oven is facotry set to turn off automatically after
15 seconds. This setting can be changed (see
