IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
Technical safety
This steam oven must be installed and connected in compliance
with the installation instructions.
Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Miele may
void the user's authority to operate the steam oven.
Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work should only be performed by a qualified technician.
A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check the appliance for any
visible damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appli-
ance.
Reliable and safe operation of this steam oven can only be as-
sured if it has been connected to the power supply.
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appli-
ance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective
grounding system. 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.

stalled correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified techni-
cian.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, ensure that
the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match
the power supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to
the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
Do not use an extension cord to connect this appliance to the
power supply. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety
of the appliance.
Maintain the required minimum installation height of 36" (914mm).
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
This steam oven must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
Risk of injury due to electric shock. Any contact with live connec-
tions or tampering with the electrical or mechanical components of
the oven will endanger your safety and may lead to the steam oven
malfunctioning.
Do not open the steam oven housing under any circumstances.
While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be per-
formed by a Miele-authorized service technicians. Work by unquali-
fied persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
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.
If the electrical plug is removed from the power cord or if the
power cord is supplied without an electrical plug, the steam oven
must be connected to the electricity supply by a qualified service
technician.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a special
power cord (see “Electrical connection” under “Installation”).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
13
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the main electricity supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
- The circuit breakers have been switched off, or
- The fuses of the electrical installation have been completely re-
moved, or
- Unplug (if plug present) the machine from the outlet. Pull the plug
not the cord.
If the steam oven is installed behind a cabinet front (e.g., a door),
do not close the cabinet front while the steam oven is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind the cabinet front when closed.
This can result in damage to the steam oven, the housing unit, and
the floor. Leave the door panel open until the steam oven has cooled
down completely.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
14
Correct use
Danger of burning. The heater elements may still be hot even if
they are not glowing red. The surfaces of the oven compartment can
cause burns if they are touched. External parts of the steam oven
such as the door glass, control panel, and the vent become quite
hot. During operation and after turning the steam oven off, make
sure that you do not touch any hot parts and surfaces and do not let
any items of clothing or flammable objects come into contact with
these. Wait until the steam oven has cooled down.
Do not let food sit in the oven for an extended period of time be-
fore or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sick-
ness.
Loose fitting or hanging garments present a fire hazard. Wear
proper apparel while operating the appliance.
Use only dry, heat-resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders
used on hot surfaces may result in steam burns. Do not let pothold-
ers 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.
Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before
placing or removing food.
Danger of burning. Push the baking trays and wire racks onto the
corresponding level before heating up the steam oven. If you want to
remove the baking tray or wire rack while the oven compartment is
hot, do not touch the heater elements with the pot holders.
To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before
cleaning by hand.
Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing
agent or foam fire extinguisher.
Do not store any flammable liquids and objects near to the steam
oven or cooktop.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15
WARNING
Never use the steam oven to heat or warm up a room. This may
result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the steam
oven.
WARNING
Never use the steam oven for storage purposes. This may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the steam oven.
WARNING
Never cover slots, holes, or openings in the base of the steam
oven or cover the entire wire rack with materials such as aluminum
foil. This blocks the air flow in the steam oven and can cause car-
bon monoxide poisoning. Covers made of aluminum foil can also
cause heat to build up, which could lead to a fire.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Only use the steam oven to prepare food. Corrosive chemicals
and vapors such as those caused by heated adhesives, plastic, or
flammable liquids and objects can be harmful to the health. Do not
use the steam oven for drying, toasting, or dehumidifying.
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.
Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces and steam. The steam oven
gets hot during operation. You could burn yourself on the heater ele-
ments, oven compartment, side racks, accessories, food, or steam.
Use pot holders when placing food in the appliance or removing it
and when working in the hot oven compartment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
16
Risk of injury caused by hot food.
Food may spill or splash around when placing it into the oven or re-
moving it. The food can cause burns.
When placing cooking containers in the oven or removing them,
make sure that the hot food does not spill.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars in
the steam oven, as pressure will build up in the container, causing it
to explode.
Plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven can
melt at high temperatures and can even damage the steam oven or
catch fire.
Only use plastic containers which are declared by the manufacturer
as being suitable for use in a steam oven. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on use. If you want to use plastic containers for steam-
ing food make sure that they are temperature resistant to 212°F
(100°C) and steam resistant. Any other plastic containers could melt,
become brittle or break when subjected to heat.
Risk of injury caused by steam. Pouring a cold liquid onto a hot
surface creates steam, which can cause severe scalding. The sud-
den temperature change can also cause damage to hot surfaces.
Never pour cold liquids directly onto hot enameled surfaces.
It is important that the temperature in the food being cooked is
evenly distributed and sufficiently high. You can ensure this by stir-
ring or turning the food.
Food which is left in the oven compartment can dry out and the
moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the steam oven.
Do not leave food in the oven compartment and do not use any
cooking containers which are susceptible to corrosion.
Risk of injury from the open door. You could bang into the open
door or trip over it. Do not leave the door open unnecessarily.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
17
The door can support a maximum weight of 22lbs (10kg). Do not
sit, lean or place heavy items on the open oven door. Also be sure
nothing can get trapped between the door and the oven cavity. The
steam oven could get damaged.
Oil and fat can ignite if overheated. Never leave the steam oven
unattended when cooking with oil and fat.
If it does ignite do not put the flames out with water. Switch the
steam oven off immediately and then suffocate the flames by keep-
ing the oven door closed.
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the steam
oven when it is in use could catch fire.
Do not use the steam oven to heat up the room.
Broiling food for excessively long cooking durations can cause it
to dry out with the risk of catching fire. Do not exceed the recom-
mended cooking durations.
Certain foods dry out quickly and may catch fire due to high broil-
ing temperatures.
Never use broiling modes to finish baking par-cooked rolls or bread,
or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead, use the Convection Bake or
Surroundoperating mode.
To avoid fueling any flames, do not open the steam oven door if
there is smoke inside the oven compartment. Interrupt operation by
turning the steam oven off and disconnecting it from the electricity
supply. Do not open the door until the smoke has dispersed.
Use caution when using alcohol in your recipes. Alcohol evapo-
rates at high temperatures but may, in rare circumstances, combust
on the hot heating elements.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
18
Never line the floor of the oven with aluminum foil or oven liners.
Do not place any dishware or any pans, pots, or baking trays directly
on the floor of the oven compartment.
If you want to use the floor of the oven compartment as an extra sur-
face, place the wire rack on the floor of the oven compartment with
the rack surface facing up and the dishware on top. In doing so, en-
sure that the filter in the floor of the oven is not moved.
The oven compartment floor can become damaged by the wire
rack being pushed around on it.
Do not push the wire rack around on the oven compartment floor.
Larger deposits of food can block the drain and pump. Always
make sure that the filter in the floor of the oven is inserted.
When using a small electrical appliance, e.g., a hand-held blender,
near the steam oven, care should be taken that the power cord of
the appliance cannot get trapped by the steam oven door. This could
damage the insulation on the cord.
Do not operate the appliance without the bulb cover. Steam could
attack the electrical components and cause a short circuit. Steam
could also damage the electrical components.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
19
Cleaning and maintenance
Only clean parts listed in these operating and installation instruc-
tions.
Risk of injury due to electric shock. The steam from a steam
cleaning appliance could reach live electrical components and cause
a short circuit. Never use a steam cleaner for cleaning.
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.
The side racks can be removed (see “Cleaning the side racks” un-
der “Cleaning and care for the steam oven”).
Reinstall the side racks correctly.
To avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surfaces, remove any
splashes on the interior walls of the oven from food or liquids con-
taining salt.
In warm, moist environments, there is a higher probability of pest
infestations. Ensure the steam oven and the area surrounding it are
always kept clean.
Damage caused by pests is not covered by the warranty.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Control panel
The water container and the conden-
sate container are located behind the
control panel. The panel is opened and
closed by touching the Lift Panelsensor
button. Before the control panel closes
automatically, a note appears in the dis-
play, which you must confirm with OK.
The control panel is fitted with anti-trap-
ping protection. If the control panel
senses resistance when opening/clos-
ing, the process is canceled. Do not
touch the upper edge of the door when
the panel is opening and closing.
Water container
The maximum filling volume is 6 cups
(1.4l) and the minimum is 4 1/4 cups
(1.0l). There are markings on the water
container. The upper marking must
never be exceeded.
Water consumption depends on the
type of food and the cooking duration.
The water may need to be topped up
during cooking. Water consumption is
increased if the door is opened during
cooking.
Fill the water container to the maximum
level before each cooking program in-
volving steam.
Condensate container
Condensate that collects in the appli-
ance from cooking is pumped into the
condensate container. The container
has a maximum capacity of 6 cups
(1.4l).
Food probe
The probe measures the core tempera-
ture in the food, enabling the tempera-
ture during the cooking process to be
monitored simply and accurately.
Temperature/core temperature
Some functions have a preset recom-
mended temperature. The recom-
mended temperature can be altered
within the given range for an individual
cooking program, a program stage, or
for every time that program is used (see
“Recommended temperatures” under
“Settings”).
The core temperature can also be al-
tered within the given range for an indi-
vidual program or a specific program
stage.
Description of functions
36
Moisture
The Combi Steam operating mode
and ReheatSpecial Mode use a combi-
nation of oven heat and moisture. The
moisture level can be selected within
the given range for an individual pro-
gram or a specific program stage.
Depending on the moisture setting,
moisture or fresh air is supplied to the
oven compartment. With the moisture
setting=0%, the maximum fresh air
supply is implemented and no moisture
is supplied. With the moisture set-
ting=100%, there is no fresh air supply
and the moisture content is at its maxi-
mum.
Some food gives off moisture during
the cooking process. This moisture
from the food affects the amount of ad-
ditional moisture needed. If the required
amount of moisture is low, the steam
generator may not be activated at all.
Cooking duration
Depending on the operating mode, you
can set a cooking duration of between
1minute and 6, 10, or 12hours.
The cooking durations of the Automatic,
Maintenance, and Menu Cookingpro-
grams are set at the factory and cannot
be altered.
When cooking with steam, as well as
for programs and applications with pure
steam operation, the cooking duration
does not begin until the set temperature
is reached. It starts immediately for all
other operating modes, programs, and
applications.
Noises
A humming sound can be heard during
operation and after turning off the
steam oven. This noise does not indi-
cate incorrect operation or an appliance
fault. The noise is made by water being
pumped through the system.
When the steam oven is in use, you will
hear a blower noise.
Description of functions
37
Heating-up phase
The display shows the temperature in
the oven compartment as it rises during
the heating-up phase in all operating
modes (exceptions: Maxi Broil,
Broil).
The duration of the heating-up phase
with steam cooking will depend on the
quantity and temperature of the food. In
general, the heating-up phase will last
for approx. 7minutes. It will be longer if
you are cooking refrigerated or frozen
food. The heating-up phase may also
take longer when cooking at lower tem-
peratures and when cooking with the
Sous-vide operating mode.
Cooking phase
The elapsing time left is shown in the
display during the cooking phase.
When cooking with steam, the cooking
phase begins once the set temperature
is reached. It starts immediately for all
other operating modes, programs, and
applications.
Steam reduction
With steam cooking and Combi-Steam,
the steam-reduction function will turn
on automatically at the end of a cooking
program which uses a temperature
within a certain temperature range. This
is to prevent a large amount of steam
escaping when the door is opened.
Steam reduction will appear in the dis-
play.
Steam reduction can be turned off (see
“Steam reduction” under “Settings”).
When steam reduction is turned off, a
large amount of steam will escape when
the door is opened.
Oven interior lighting
For energy-saving reasons, the oven in-
terior lighting has been set at the fac-
tory to go out after the program has be-
gun.
If you want it to stay on all the time the
oven is on, you will need to alter the de-
fault setting (see “Lighting” under “Set-
tings”).
If the door is left open at the end of a
cooking program, the oven interior light-
ing will turn off automatically after
5minutes.
If the Light sensor button on the control
panel is touched, the oven compart-
ment lighting will come on for 15sec-
onds.

Water hardness
The steam oven must be adjusted to
the local water hardness level to ensure
that it works correctly and to ensure
that descaling is carried out at the cor-
rect interval. The harder the water is,
the more frequently the steam oven
needs to be descaled.
Your local water authority will be able to
tell you the hardness of the water in
your area.
If you use bottled water, such as min-
eral water, make sure it is not carbon-
ated. Adjust this setting depending on
the calcium content. The calcium con-
tent is given on the label of the bottle in
mg/l Ca
2+
or ppm (mg Ca
2+
/l).
You can set the hardness level between
1 gpg (1°dH) and 73 gpg (70°dH). The
hardness level is set to 16 gpg (15°dH) by
default.
Set the water hardness level for your
area.

Energy-saving tips

Cooking programs
- Remove all accessories from the
oven that are not required for a cook-
ing program.
- If a temperature range is given, it is
best to select the lower temperature
and check the food after the shortest
cooking time given.
- Preheat the oven only if instructed to
do so in the recipe or the cooking
chart.
- Try not to open the door when cook-
ing.
- Dark, matte tins are best for baking.
They absorb the heat more effectively
and transmit it to the mixture more
quickly. Shiny materials such as
stainless steel or aluminum reflect the
heat and therefore can give a more
uneven result. Do not cover the oven
floor or the wire rack with heat-re-
flecting aluminum foil.
- Monitor cooking durations to avoid
wasting energy when cooking.
Set the cooking duration, or use a
food probe if you have one.
- Most food can be cooked using Con-
vection Bake or Convection
Roast. Because the fan distrib-
utes the heat in the oven compart-
ment straight away, it allows you to
use a lower temperature than you
would with Surround. It also en-
ables you to cook on multiple shelf
levels at the same time.
- Convection Broil is the best operat-
ing mode for broiled dishes. Lower
temperatures can be used than with
other broil modes that use the maxi-
mum temperature setting.
- Whenever possible you should cook
several dishes at the same time.
Place them next to each other in the
oven or on different shelf levels.
- Dishes which you are unable to pre-
pare at the same time should, if pos-
sible, be cooked one after the other
in order to make use of existing heat
in the oven.
Settings
- Select the Display| QuickTouch|
Offsetting for the control elements in

Risk of injury caused by hot sur-
faces and food.
The steam oven gets hot during op-
eration. You could burn yourself on
the heater elements, oven compart-
ment, side racks, accessories, or
food.
Use pot holders when placing food
in the appliance or removing it and
when working in the hot oven com-
partment.
When placing cooking containers in

Preheating the oven
The Boosterfunction is used to quickly
preheat the oven compartment in some
operating modes.
The Preheatfunction can be used with
any oven operating mode and has to be
turned on separately for each cooking
program.
The oven compartment only needs to
be preheated in a few cases.
Preheat the oven compartment when
cooking the following food:
- cakes, cookies, and pastries with a
short cooking duration (approx.
30minutes or less) as well as delicate
items (e.g., sponge) with the Sur-
roundoperating mode (without
the Boosterfunction)
Booster
The Boosterfunction is activated as the
factory default setting for the following
operating modes (Settings| Booster| On):
- Convection Bake
- Convection Roast
- Surround
If you set a temperature above 210°F
(100°C) and the Boosterfunction is
turned on, a rapid preheating phase
heats the oven compartment to the set
temperature. The browning/broiling ele-
ment and the ring heating element
come on together with the hot air
blower.
Delicate items (e.g., sponge cake or
cookies) will brown too quickly on
the top if the Boosterfunction is
used.
Turn off the Boosterfunction for these
items.

General notes
74
The “General Notes” section contains
general information. You will find more
detailed information about particular
foods and how to cook them in the
other sections.
The advantages of cooking
with steam
Almost all vitamins and minerals are re-
tained as the food is not immersed in
water.
Cooking with steam also retains the
true taste of the food better than con-
ventional cooking. We therefore recom-
mend seasoning the food after it has
been cooked. Food also retains its
fresh, original color.
Suitable containers
Cooking containers
Stainless-steel cooking containers are
provided with the steam oven. Other
containers, in a variety of sizes, both
perforated and solid, are available as
optional extras (see “Optional acces-
sories”). This enables you to choose the
most suitable container for the meal
you are preparing.
Use perforated cooking containers for
steam cooking if possible. The steam
can reach the food from all sides and
the food is cooked evenly.
Your own dishware
You can also use your own dishware.
However, please note the following:
- Dishware must be suitable for use in
an oven and able to withstand steam.
With plastic dishware, please check
with the manufacturer that it is suit-
able for use in a steam oven.
- Thick-sided dishware made from
porcelain, ceramic, or stoneware is
not very suitable for using with
steam. Due to its thick sides, it does
not conduct heat well, meaning
cooking durations will be consider-
ably longer than those given in the
charts.
- Place the dishware on the wire rack
or in a cooking container. Depending
on the size of the dishware, you can
also place the wire rack on the floor
of the oven compartment with the
rack surface facing up and the dish-
ware on top. You can also take the
side racks out to make more room
(see “Cleaning the side racks” under
“Cleaning and care for the steam
oven”).
- Ensure that there is a gap between
the upper rim of the dishware and the
top of the oven compartment to allow
sufficient steam into the dishware.
General notes
75
Shelf level
You can select any shelf level. You can
also cook on several levels at the same
time. This will not alter the cooking du-
ration.
When using more than one deep cook-
ing container at the same time, it is best
to offset them on their runners and to
leave at least one level free in between
them.
Always insert cooking containers and
the rack between the rails of the shelf
level supports so that they cannot tip.
Frozen food
The heating up phase for frozen food is
longer than for fresh food. The greater
the quantity of frozen food, the longer
the preheating phase.
Temperature
During steam cooking, the temperature
does not exceed 212°F (100°C). Almost
all foods can be cooked at this temper-
ature. Some types of food, such as
berries, need to be cooked at lower
temperatures to prevent them from
bursting. See the relevant sections in
these operating instructions for more
details.
Cooking duration
During steam cooking, the cooking du-
ration does not begin until the set tem-
perature is reached.
In general, the cooking durations for
cooking with steam are the same as for
cooking food in a saucepan. More infor-
mation about any factors which may af-
fect the cooking duration is given in the
relevant sections.
The quantity of food does not affect the
cooking duration. 2 lb (1kg) of potatoes
will take the same time to cook as 1 lb
(500g) of potatoes.
Cooking with liquid
When cooking with liquid only fill the
cooking pan ²/₃full to prevent the liquid
spilling when the cooking pan is re-
moved from the oven.
Your own recipes - Steam
cooking
Food and recipes which are prepared in
pot or a pan can also be cooked in the
steam oven. The cooking times in the
steam oven will be the same. Please
note that food will not be brown or crisp
when cooking with steam.
General notes
76
Universal tray and wire rack
Use the universal tray with the wire rack
placed on top of it, e.g., for roasting
and broiling. During roasting, you can
use the meat juices collected in the tray
to make a gravy or sauce.
If you are using the universal tray with
the wire rack on top, insert the universal
tray between the rails of a shelf level
and the wire rack will automatically slide
in above them. When removing them
from the oven, pull both out together.
Non-tip safety notches
The wire rack and universal tray have
non-tip safety notches in the middle
which prevent them being pulled right
out when they only need to be partially
pulled out. The tray and rack can then
only be taken out of the oven by raising
them upwards and then pulling them
out.

77
Notes on the cooking charts
Follow the instructions on cooking du-
rations, temperatures, and cooking
notes.
Selecting the cooking duration
The cooking durations given are guide-
lines only.
We recommend selecting the shorter
duration initially. You can cook for
longer if necessary.
Steam cooking
78
Vegetables
Fresh food
Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual
way, i.e. wash, clean and cut them up.
Frozen food
Frozen vegetables do not need to be
defrosted beforehand unless they have
been frozen together in a block.
Frozen and fresh vegetables which take
the same length of time to cook can be
cooked together.
If vegetables have frozen together in
clumps, break these up before cooking
with steam. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions on the packaging regarding
cooking duration.
Cooking pan
Food such as peas or asparagus
spears, which have little or no space
between them, will take longer to cook
because the steam has less space to
work in. For an even result, it is best to
use a shallow container for these types
of food, and only fill it about
1-2" (3-5cm) deep. When cooking large
quantities divide the food between 2 or
3 shallow containers rather than using
one deep one.
Different types of vegetables which take
the same length of time to cook can be
cooked together in one cooking pan.
Use solid containers for vegetables
which are cooked in liquid, e.g. cab-
bage.
Shelf level
When cooking vegetables with a dis-
tinctive color (e.g. beets) in a perforated
container at the same time as cooking
other foods in other containers, place
the drip tray directly underneath the
perforated container to catch any drips
and therefore avoid any color transfer.
Cooking duration
The cooking duration depends on the
size of the food and how well cooked
you want it, just as it does with conven-
tional cooking methods. Example:
White potatoes, cut into quarters:
approx. 17minutes
White potatoes, cut in half:
approx. 20minutes

Fish
Fresh food
Prepare fresh fish in the usual way, i.e.
clean, gut and filet.
Frozen food
Frozen fish should be slightly defrosted
before cooking.
Preparing for use
Add some lemon or lime juice to fish
before cooking. The citric acid helps the
flesh stay firm.
It is not necessary to season fish when
cooking with steam as this method re-
tains the minerals which give the fish its
unique flavor.
Cooking pans
If using a perforated pan, grease it first.
Shelf level
When cooking fish in a perforated con-
tainer at the same time as cooking
other types of food in other containers,
place the container with the fish directly
above the universal tray to catch any
liquid and so avoid any transfer of
tastes to other food.
Temperature
185–195°F (85–90°C)
For gently cooking delicate types of
fish, such as sole.
212°F (100°C)
For cooking firmer types of fish, e.g.
cod and salmon.
Also for cooking fish in sauce or stock.
Cooking duration
The cooking duration depends on the
thickness and the consistency of the
food, and not on the weight. The thicker
the piece of food is, the longer cooking
will take. A piece of fish weighing
1lb(500 g) that is 1" (3 cm) thick will
take longer to cook than a piece weigh-
ing 1lb (500 g) and only 1/2" (2 cm)
thick.
The longer fish cooks, the firmer its
flesh will become. Use the cooking du-
rations given in the chart. If you find
that the fish is not cooked sufficiently
only cook it for a few minutes more.
When cooking fish in sauce or stock,
we recommend that you increase the
cooking duration quoted by a few min-
utes.
Steam cooking
82
Tips
- Adding herbs and spices, such as
dill, will help bring out the full flavor of
the fish.
- Cook large fish in the swimming posi-
tion. To help maintain the structure of
the fish, place a small cup or similar
upside down in the cooking con-
tainer. Arrange the fish belly-side
down over the cup.
- You can use any fish scraps, e.g., fish
heads, bones, tails, etc., to make a
fish stock. Place the fish scraps to-
gether with some mixed vegetables in
a solid cooking container and add
cold water. Cook at 212°F (100°C) for
60 to 90minutes. The longer the
cooking duration, the stronger the
stock.
- Preparing fish au bleu is a method in-
volving cooking the fish in water with
vinegar, at different proportions de-
pending on the recipe. It is important
not to damage the skin of the fish.
This method is suitable for cooking
carp, trout, tench, eel, and salmon.

Meat
Fresh food
Prepare the meat as usual.
Frozen food
Meat should be thoroughly defrosted
before cooking in the steam oven (see
“Defrost” under “Special Modes”).
Preparation
For meat which needs to be seared be-
fore being cooked, e.g. for a stew, sear
the meat in a pan on the cooktop first.
Cooking duration
The cooking time depends on the thick-
ness and consistency of the food. The
thicker the meat, the longer the cooking
time. The thicker the piece of food is,
the longer cooking will take. A piece of
fish weighing 1 lb (500 g) that is
4" (10cm) thick will take longer to cook
than a piece weighing 1 lb (500 g) and
only 2" (5 cm) thick.
Tips
- To retain the flavor, use a perforated
cooking container. Place a solid
cooking container or the universal
tray underneath in order to collect the
concentrate. You can use the con-
centrate to enhance your sauces or
freeze it for later use.
- Boiling meat from chicken and beef
as well as meat bones can be used to
make a strong stock. Place the meat
together with the bones and some
mixed vegetables in a cooking con-
tainer and add cold water. The longer
the cooking duration, the stronger the
stock.

none of the juice is lost. If you wish to
cook fruit in a perforated container,
place a solid container directly under-
neath it to collect the juice.
Tip: You can use the collected juice to
prepare a glaze.

Menu Cooking - Manual
Before cooking meals with the man-
ual menu cooking function, turn off
steam reduction (see “Steam reduc-
tion” under “Settings”).
When cooking a menu, you can com-
bine different foods with different cook-
ing durations, e.g., fish filet with rice
and broccoli.
The food is placed in the steam oven
compartment at different times so that
each item is ready at the same time.
Shelf level
Place foods that produce a lot of liquid
(e.g., fish) or have a distinctive color
(e.g., beetroot) directly above the uni-
versal tray. This avoids any transfer of
flavor or color to other food and pre-
vents liquid dripping onto food below it.
Temperature
Whole meals should be cooked at a
temperature of 212°F (100°C) as this is
the temperature required to cook the
majority of foods.
Do not cook a whole meal at the lowest
temperature when different tempera-
tures are required for different types of
food, e.g. 185°F (85°C) for seabream
and 212°F (100°C) for potatoes.
If the recommended cooking tempera-
ture for the food is 185°F (85°C), for ex-
ample, try cooking it at 212°F (100°C)
and testing the result. Some delicate
types of fish with a soft structure, e.g.
sole and plaice will become very firm
when cooked at 212°F (100°C).
Cooking duration
If you are increasing the recommended
temperature, shorten the cooking dura-
tion by approx. ¹/₃.

Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking
98
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
This gentle cooking method allows food
to be cooked slowly at a low, constant
temperature in vacuum packaging.
With vacuum cooking, moisture does
not evaporate and all nutrients and fla-
vors are retained.
The result is flavorful and cooked
evenly.
Only use food that is fresh and in
good condition.
Ensure hygienic conditions and that
food has not been out of the refriger-
ator too long, e.g. during transporta-
tion.
Use only heat-stable, boiling-resis-
tant vacuum bags.
Do not cook food in the manufactur-
ers packaging, such as vacuum-
packed frozen food. It is possible
that an unsuitable vacuum bag was
used.
Use the vacuum bag only once.
Vacuum-seal the food in a chamber
system vacuum sealer only.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking
99
Important usage notes
For the best cooking results:
- Use herbs and spices more sparingly
than with conventional methods be-
cause the impact on the taste of the
food will be stronger.
You can also cook the food unsea-
soned and add seasoning after cook-
ing.
- The cooking duration is reduced
when salt, sugar, and liquids are
added.
- The food becomes firmer if acidic in-
gredients such as lemon or vinegar
are added.
- Do not use alcohol or garlic as this
can cause an unpleasant taste.
- Only use vacuum bags that match
the size of the food. If the vacuum
bag is too big, too much air can re-
main inside.
- If you want to cook several pieces of
food in one vacuum bag, put them
side by side in the bag.
- If you want to cook food in several
vacuum bags at once, put the bags
side by side on the wire rack.
- The cooking durations depend on the
thickness of the food.
- With high temperatures and/or long
cooking durations, the appliance may
run low on water. Check the display
from time to time.
- Keep the door closed during the
cooking program. Opening the door
extends the cooking process and can
change the cooking result.
- Temperatures and cooking durations
from sous-vide recipes cannot al-
ways be emulated exactly. Alter the
settings to achieve the degree of
cooking you want.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking

Tips
- In order to reduce cooking times, you
can vacuum-seal food items 1–2
days before the cooking program.
Store the vacuum-sealed food in the
refrigerator at no more than 40°F
(5°C). In order to preserve quality and
flavor, the food should be cooked no
later than 2days afterward.
- Freeze liquids such as marinades be-
fore vacuum-sealing to prevent them
from escaping from the bag.
- Fold the edges of the vacuum bag
outward for filling. This will give you
clean, perfect seams.
- If you do not want to eat the food
straight after cooking, put it in iced
water immediately and allow it to cool
down completely. After this, store the
food at temperatures no greater than
40°F (5°C).
This way, you can retain the food’s
quality and flavor while keeping it
fresh for longer.
Exception: poultry must be eaten
straight after the cooking program.
- After cooking, cut the vacuum bag on
all sides for easier access to the
food.
- Briefly fry meat and firm types of fish
(such as salmon) before serving. This
will help to develop a roasted flavor.
- Use the stock or marinade of vegeta-
bles, fish, or meat to make a sauce.
- Serve the food on preheated plates.
Using the Sous-videoperating
mode
Rinse the food with cold water and
dry it.
Place the food in a vacuum bag and
add spices or liquid if desired.
Vacuum-seal the food in a chamber
system vacuum sealer.
For the best cooking results, place
the wire rack on shelf level2.
Place the vacuum-sealed food on the
wire rack (next to each other if there
are several bags).
Select Operating Modes.
Select Sous-vide.
Adjust the recommended tempera-
ture, if necessary.
Confirm with OK.
Set further settings as necessary (see
“Operation”).

Possible causes for poor re-
sults
The vacuum bag has opened:
- The weld seam was not clean or sta-
ble enough and dissolved.
- The bag was damaged by a sharp
bone.
The food has an unpleasant or strange
taste:
- Incorrect storage of the food; the
food was kept out of the refrigerator
for too long.
- The food was contaminated with
bacteria before it was vacuum
sealed.
- Too much spice was used.
- The bag or weld seam were dam-
aged.
- The vacuum was insufficient.
- The food was not immediately eaten
or cooled after cooking.

Reheating
Only reheat brassicas, such as kohlrabi
and cauliflower, together with a sauce.
Without sauce, an unpleasant cabbage-
like taste and gray-brown color may de-
velop.
Food with a short cooking duration or
which continues cooking during re-
heating, such as fish, is not suitable
for reheating.
Preparation
Place the cooked food into ice water for
about an hour directly after cooking.
The fast cooling prevents the food from
continuing to cook. The optimum cook-
ing condition is thus retained.
Then store the food in the refrigerator at
a maximum of 40°F (5°C).
Please note that the quality of the
food decreases the longer it is
stored.
We recommend that you do not store
the food in the refrigerator for longer
than 5 days before reheating.

106
Reheat
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
To reheat food which was cooked us-
ing the sous-vide method, use the
Sous-vide operating mode (see
“Reheating” under “Sous-vide”).
The steam oven is very effective at re-
heating food gently, without drying it
out or cooking it further. The food re-
heats evenly and does not need to be
stirred during the reheating process.
You can reheat individual dishes or
plated meals which have been prepared
previously (e.g. meat, vegetables and
potatoes).
Suitable containers
Small quantities can be reheated on a
plate, larger quantities should be placed
in a cooking pan.
Duration
10–12minutes are usually sufficient for
one plate of food. More than one plate
will need a little longer.
If you are reheating several plated
meals one after the other, the reheating
time can be reduced by around 5min-
utes for the second and subsequent
plates as the oven compartment will still
be hot.
Moisture content
The more moist the food, the less mois-
ture that needs to be added.
Tips
- Do not reheat large items, such as a
whole roast. Divide it into portions
and reheat these as plated meals.
- Compact items, such as stuffed bell
peppers or roulades, should be cut in
half.
- Reheat sauces separately. Exceptions
are dishes such as baked ziti, which
is cooked in sauce.
- Please note that breaded items, such
as fried chicken, will not retain their
crispness when they are reheated.
Food does not need to be covered be-
fore it is reheated.

Defrost
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
It is much quicker to defrost items in the
steam oven than at room temperature.
Risk of infection from bacteria.
Bacteria such as salmonella can
cause life-threatening food poison-
ing.
It is particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
fish and meat, and in particular when
defrosting poultry.
Do not use the liquid produced dur-
ing defrosting.
Process the food as required as soon
as it has been defrosted.
Temperature
140°F (60°C) is the best temperature for
defrosting.
Exception: 125°F (50°C) for minced
meat and game
Before and after defrosting
Remove any packaging before defrost-
ing.
Exceptions: leave bread, biscuits, and
cakes in their packaging as otherwise
they will absorb moisture and become
soft.
Allow food to stand at room tempera-
ture for a few minutes after defrosting.
The standing time is necessary to allow
the even distribution of heat from the
outside to the inside.
Cooking containers
Use a perforated container with the uni-
versal tray underneath when defrosting
food which will drip, such as poultry.
This way food will not be lying in de-
frosted liquid.
Foods which do not drip can be de-
frosted in a solid cooking container.
Tips
- Fish does not need to be fully de-
frosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently thawed
to take herbs and seasoning. De-
pending on the thickness of the fish,
2–5 minutes is generally enough.
- When defrosting food which has
frozen together, e.g., berries and
meat portions, separate them half-
way through the defrosting time.
- Do not refreeze food once it has
thawed.
- Defrost frozen ready meals according
to the instructions on the packaging.

Miele Mix & Match
The Miele Mix & MatchSpecial Mode is
available to help with simple and un-
complicated preparation of plated
meals. With this application, you can re-
heat food that has already been cooked
(convenience food) or assemble a por-
tioned-out meal using fresh food and
cook it on a plate.
During cooking, you have the choice
between a crispy, browned result or
gently cooked food with a succulent
surface without additional browning.
Only use food that is completely hy-
gienic. If you have any concerns, dis-
pose of the food.
Containers
Use:
- a flat plate or a small ovenproof dish
- a deep bowl or a cup for food that re-
quires liquid to be added
Baked goods, pizza, tarte flambée, etc.,
can be placed directly on the wire rack
(with parchment paper if necessary).
The plastic containers for ready
meals are not sufficiently heat-resis-
tant.
Transfer ready meals into suitable
cooking containers.

Tips for reheating plated meals
- For fried or gratin dishes, useCrisp
Reheating and for baked or boiled
dishes, useGentle Reheating.
- UsingCrisp Reheating ensures that
only food that was crispy before re-
heating stays crispy.
- The food should not exceed a height
of 3/4"-1" (2–2.5cm). Transfer taller
food into flat containers (e.g., casse-
role) or slice it into smaller pieces
(e.g., roulades, bakes).
- Only reheat pasta mixed into a sauce.
- Droplets of water may have accumu-
lated underneath the dishware. Dry
the droplets of water before serving.
Tips for cooking plated meals
- You can easily make a sauce from
the meat and fish stock: add 1tsp of
corn starch to the raw meat or fish
before cooking. Stir the sauce with a
fork until smooth before serving. You
can also use 1tsp of mashed potato
powder (instant) or a pinch of guar
gum instead of corn starch.
- If cooking durations for different
foods are not the same, you can
compensate for this by changing the
size of the food: if the cooking dura-
tion is shorter, make the pieces larger
(e.g., large cauliflower florets). If the
cooking duration is longer, make the
pieces smaller (e.g., diced potatoes).
- You can also compensate for differ-
ing cooking durations with layering:
place food with a short cooking dura-
tion under a food with a long cooking
duration or put them together as a
small bake.
- To prevent the food from drying out,
prepare your dish with a sauce or
marinade. You can also use cheese
or bacon.
Special modes
113
Assembling a plated meal using vari-
ous components
For a good cooking result, you must put
together the individual components of
the dish – such as meat, side dishes,
and vegetables – so that a common
setting can be selected for browning.
This setting must be suitable for all ele-
ments of the meal, or at least condition-
ally suitable.
We recommend using the following pro-
cedure:
Select a main ingredient based on the
cooking charts, e.g., steak.
Select other ingredients which have
the corresponding settings for brown-
ing, e.g., green beans and rice.
Notes on the cooking charts
As well as information on portion sizes
or the way the food needs to be pro-
cessed prior to cooking, the cooking
charts also provide tips on preparation.
The degree of browning is represented
in the display by a bar with seven seg-
ments. Basically, the more segments
that are filled, the longer the cooking
duration.
You can use the icons to determine
which setting is appropriate to brown
the food:

Blanching
Blanch fruit and vegetables before
freezing them. Blanching helps maintain
the quality of the produce when it is
frozen.
Blanching vegetables also helps them
retain their original color.
Put the prepared vegetables
(cleaned, washed, chopped, etc.) into
a perforated cooking container.
Once blanched, plunge the vegeta-
bles into ice cold water to cool them
down quickly. Drain them well.
Settings
Special Modes | Blanch
or
Operating Modes | Steam Cooking
Temperature: 212°F (100°C)
Blanching time: 1minute
Canning
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
Only use unblemished, fresh produce
which is in good condition.
Glass jars
Use clean glass jars and accessories
and check them for any defects. Glass
jars with twist off lids or glass lids with a
rubber seal are suitable.
Make sure that all the glass jars are the
same size so that bottling is carried out
evenly.
After you have filled the jars with the
bottled produce, clean the glass rims
with a clean cloth and hot water and
then seal the jars.
Fruit
Sort fruit carefully, rinse it briefly but
thoroughly and allow it to drain. Take
great care when cleaning soft fruit as it
is very delicate.
Remove any peel, stalks, cores or pits.
Cut up large fruit. For example, cut ap-
ples into slices.
If you are bottling fruit with pits (e.g.
plums, apricots) without removing the
pits, pierce the fruit several times with a
fork or wooden skewer as otherwise it
will burst.
Special modes
124
Vegetables
Rinse, clean, and chop vegetables.
Vegetables should be blanched before
canning to help them retain their color
(see “Blanching” under “Special
Modes”).
Fill volume
Fill the glass jars with produce up to a
maximum of 1 1/4" (3cm) below the
rim. Do not pack down as this would
damage the cell walls of the produce.
Bang the jar gently on a cloth to help
distribute the contents evenly.
Use a sugar solution for fruit and a salt
or vinegar solution for vegetables.
Tips
- Make use of residual heat by leaving
the jars in the oven for 30 minutes af-
ter it has switched off.
- Then cover the jars with a cloth and
allow to cool for approx. 24 hours.
Canning food
Place a perforated container or the
wire rack at level1.
Place the jars in the perforated con-
tainer or on the wire rack. The jars
must not touch each other.

Canning cakes
Batter, sponge, and yeast dough are suitable for canning. The cake has a shelf-life
of 6months.
Cooked cakes containing fruit are not suitable for storage. They must be con-
sumed within two days.
Only use sterilized jars and accessories. The jars must be narrower at the bottom
than at the top (mason jars). 1 cup (0.25l) jars are the best for this purpose.
The jars need to have a canning ring, glass lid, and a spring lock clip to be sealed.
Make sure that all the glass jars are the same size so that canning is carried out
evenly.
Grease the inside of the jars with butter up to 1/2" (1cm) below the rim.
Sprinkle fine breadcrumbs inside the jars.
Fill the jars ¹/₂ to ²/₃ full with mixture (depending on recipe). Make sure the rim
stays clean.
Place the wire rack on shelf level1.
Place the open jars (all the same size) on the wire rack. The jars must not touch
each other.
Close the jars immediately after canning by clamping the glass lid down se-
curely. Do not let the cakes cool down. If the mixture has risen above the rim, it
can be pushed back down into the jar with the glass lid.

Menu Cooking – automatic
When cooking a menu automatically,
you can combine up to 3 different foods
with different cooking durations, e.g.,
fish filet with rice and vegetables.
The food is placed in the steam oven
compartment at different times so that
each item is ready at the same time.
You can select the foods in any order
because the steam oven sorts the items
according to the length of cooking du-
ration and indicates when each item
has to be placed in the oven.
The Ready at and Start at functions are
not available in menu cooking.

When using perforated containers to
cook foods that produce a lot of liq-
uid or have a distinctive color, be sure
to place them over the universal tray.
This avoids any transfer of flavor or
color to other food and prevents liq-
uid dripping onto food below it.
At the end of a heating-up phase, the
steam oven will indicate when the next
item of food has to be placed inside.
Once this time has been reached, a
buzzer will sound.
This process is repeated once again if
there is a third food item.
You can still cook food types not listed
together. Please refer to “Menu cook-
ing – manual” under “Steam cooking”

Sanitizing Cookware
The steam oven will sanitize baby bot-
tles and other cookware. Check before-
hand that the manufacturer guarantees
all components are to be heat resistant
to 212°F (100°C) and also steam resis-
tant follow manufacturers instructions.
Dismantle, clean and thoroughly rinse
baby bottles. Reassemble the bottles
only after they have completely dried.
This prevents recontamination.
Place the individual items on the wire
rack or in a perforated container (on
their sides or with the opening facing
downward) ensuring that they do not
touch one another. This will allow hot
steam to reach them from all sides.

Warm-up Cookware
Preheating the dishware means that
food does not cool down as quickly.
Use heat-resistant dishware.
Place the wire rack on shelf level2

Making Yogurt
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
To prepare yogurt, you will need milk
and live culture or yogurt starter pow-
der, e.g., from a health food store.
Use natural yogurt with live culture and
without additives. Heat-treated yogurt is
not suitable.
The yogurt must be fresh (short storage
time).
You can use either unchilled long-life
milk or fresh milk.
Long-life milk can be used as it is – no
further preparation is required. Fresh
milk must first be heated to 195°F
(90°C) (do not boil it) and then cooled
down to 95° (35°C). Fresh milk will give
a better set than long-life milk.
The yogurt and milk should have the
same percentage fat.
Do not move or shake the jars while the
yogurt is fermenting.
Immediately after preparation, leave the
yogurt to cool in the fridge.
The firmness, fat content, and cultures
used in the yogurt starter all affect the
consistency of homemade yogurt. Not
all yogurts are equally suitable as yo-
gurt starters.
Tip: When using yogurt enzyme, yogurt
can be made from a milk/cream mix-
ture. Mix 3 cups (³/₄liter) milk with
1cup (¹/₄liter) cream.
Mix 3.5 oz (100g) of yogurt with
41/4cups (1l) of milk or make up the
mixture with yogurt starter, following
the instructions on the packaging.
Pour the mixture into glass jars and
seal the jars.
Place the sealed jars in a perforated
cooking container and place in the
oven. The jars must not touch each
other.
Straight after the cooking duration
has finished, place the jars in the re-
frigerator. Take care not to shake the
jars unnecessarily.

Juicing
This appliance is ideal for extracting
juice from soft, firm, and hard fruit.
It is best to use overripe fruit, as the
riper the fruit, the greater the quantity of
juice produced. Very ripe fruit will also
produce a more intense flavor.
Preparation
Sort and rinse the fruit. Cut out any
blemishes.
Remove the stalks from grapes and
cherries as these are bitter. Berries do
not need to have their stalks removed.
Dice larger fruit such as apples into ap-
proximately 3/4" (2cm) cubes. The
harder the fruit, the smaller the pieces
should be.
Tips
- Try experimenting with mild and tart
flavors.
- The juice quantity and aroma are im-
proved if sugar is added to the fruit
and is allowed to soak in for several
hours. We recommend ¼–½ cup (50–
100 g) sugar per 2lbs (1kg) of sweet
fruit and ½–¾ cup (100–150g) sugar
for 2lbs (1kg) tangy fruit.
- If you wish to bottle the juice rather
than consume it straight away, while
still hot pour it into clean bottles and
seal immediately.
Extracting juice from fruit
Put the prepared fruit (cleaned,
washed, chopped etc.) into a perfo-
rated cooking container.
Place a solid cooking container or the
universal tray underneath in order to
collect the juice.

Fruit jam
Only use unblemished, fresh produce
which is in good condition.
Glass jars
Only use sterilised jars with twist-off lids
up to a maximum capacity of 1 cup
(250ml).
After pouring in the jam, clean the out-
side of the rim of the jar with a cloth
and hot water.
Preparation
Sort fruit carefully, rinse it briefly but
thoroughly and allow it to drain. Take
great care when cleaning soft fruit as it
is very delicate and squashes easily.
Remove any stalks, cores or pits.
Purée the fruit as otherwise the pre-
serve will not set. Add jam sugar to the
fruit (according to packet instructions)
and stir well.
For sweet fruit and berries you should
also add some citric acid.
Making jam
Fill jars maximum two-thirds full.
Place the open jars in a perforated
cooking container or on the wire rack.
At the end of the cooking duration,
take the jars out of the steam oven
using pot holders. Leave them to
stand for 1–2minutes before sealing
them with lids and then leave them to
cool.

Usage notes
- The degree of cooking and browning
are represented by a bar with seven
segments. You can set how well you
want the food cooked or how brown
you want it to be by touching the rel-
evant segment.
- Some roasting programs also offer
the Roast with moistureoption. Meat
cooked at a low temperature over a
long cooking duration will be tender
and succulent. The additional mois-
ture helps to achieve the best cook-
ing and browning result: the meat is
very succulent and tender. The cut is
cooked evenly and has a thin brown
outer layer that forms during the
roasting program. There is therefore
no need to sear the meat beforehand.
In contrast to the Roastoption, there
is no need to use the food probe in
this case and you can set a start or
finish time depending on your menu
planning.
- The weights specified in the auto-
matic programs refer to the weight
per piece. For example, you can cook
just one piece of salmon weighing
1/2 lb (250g) or 10pieces of salmon,
each weighing 1/2 lb (250g), at the
same time.
- The steam oven compartment needs
to cool to room temperature before
starting an automatic program.

Baking
146
Handling and cooking food correctly
is essential for maintaining good
health.
Cakes, pizzas, and French fries
should be cooked until golden, not
dark brown.
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
Baking tips
- Set a cooking duration. If used for
baking, do not delay the start for too
long. Otherwise the cake mixture or
dough will dry out, and the raising
agents will lose their effectiveness.
- Generally, you can use the wire rack,
universal tray, and any type of bake-
ware made of heat-resistant material.
- Always place bakeware on the wire
rack.
- Always cook frozen goods such as
cakes, pizza, or baguettes on the
wire rack.
Very high temperatures can cause
the universal tray to distort to such
an extent that the tray cannot be
taken out of the oven compartment.
- Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes can
be cooked on the universal tray. Turn
these frozen food items several times
during cooking.
- Bake on a maximum of two levels at
the same time. When baking cakes
with a moist topping, only bake on
one level.
Using parchment paper
Miele accessories, e.g., the universal
tray, are treated with PerfectClean (see
“Cleaning and care for the steam
oven”). Surfaces treated with Perfect-
Clean generally do not need to be
greased or covered with parchment
paper.
Use parchment paper when cooking:
- lye mixtures because anything pre-
pared using a lye containing sodium
hydroxide can damage the Perfect-
Clean surface
- mixtures with a high egg-white con-
tent, such as sponge, meringue, and
macaroons, as these can easily stick
- puff pastry or strudel dough
- frozen food on the wire rack
- small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes on
the universal tray
Baking
147
Tips for baking
- Dark bakeware is best for baking.
Avoid using bright, thin-walled pans
made from a shiny material as they
give an uneven or poor browning re-
sult. In certain unfavorable condi-
tions, the food will not cook properly.
- Place cakes in rectangular bakeware
on the wire rack with the longer side
across the width of the oven for opti-
mum heat distribution and even re-
sults.
- When cooking frozen food such as
chips, croquettes, cakes, pizza, and
baguettes, select the medium tem-
perature quoted on the manufac-
turer’s packaging.
- If a range is specified for the cooking
duration, check whether the food is
cooked after the shortest duration.
Stick a wooden skewer into the food.
If it comes out clean without any bat-
ter/dough on it, the food is done.
Notes on the operating modes
You can find an overview of all the op-
erating modes with their recommended
values in “Main and submenus”.
Combi Steam
This operating mode uses a combina-
tion of oven heat and moisture. The ad-
dition of steam prevents the surface of
the food from drying out. Bread, bread
rolls, and puff pastry have a shiny and
crispy crust.
You can choose between different types
of heating:
- Combi Conv Bake
- Combi Surround
- Combi Broil
We recommend baking bread and
bread rolls in several cooking stages:
the shine is created during the first
cooking stage thanks to the bursts of
steam (maximum moisture, low temper-
ature). Browning takes place in the next
cooking stage with high moisture and a
high temperature. It is then dried with
reduced moisture and a medium to high
temperature.
Tip: Recipes and other information can
be found in the Miele App.

Automatic Programs
Please refer to the cookbook for infor-
mation on suitable bakeware.
Follow the instructions on the display.
Convection Bake
Use this operating mode if you are bak-
ing on multiple shelf levels at the same
time.
You can use any type of bakeware
made of heat-resistant material.
Because the blower distributes the heat
around the oven compartment straight
away, you can use a lower temperature
than you would with the Surround
operating mode.
Surround
Use this operating mode for cooking
traditional recipes. If using an older
recipe or cookbook, set the oven tem-
perature 50°F (10°C) lower than that
recommended. This will not change the
cooking duration.
Only bake on one level. If you are mak-
ing a tray bake, use shelf level2.
Intensive
This operating mode is suitable for bak-
ing cakes with moist toppings, pizza,
quiche, etc.
Place the food on shelf level1.
Bake
Use this operating mode toward the
end of cooking to brown the base of the
food.
Browning
Use this operating mode toward the
end of cooking to brown the top of
food.
This operating mode is suitable for
gratins and for browning bakes.
Humidity Plus
Use this operating mode for baking bat-
ter and frozen lye mixtures.
Roasting
149
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
Roasting tips
- Never roast frozen meat as it will dry
out. Always defrost meat before
roasting.
- Remove skin and sinew before roast-
ing.
- Marinate and season the meat to
taste.
- If you are cooking several pieces of
meat together, select pieces that are
similar in size.
- Use the universal tray with the wire
rack placed on top of it. The oven
compartment stays cleaner and you
can then use the meat juices col-
lected to make a gravy or sauce.
- Allow a resting time of approx.
10minutes before carving meat. This
resting time ensures the meat juices
are distributed evenly.
Notes on the operating modes
You can find an overview of all the op-
erating modes with their recommended
values in “Main and submenus”.
Combi Steam
This operating mode uses a combina-
tion of oven heat and moisture. The ad-
dition of steam prevents the surface of
the food from drying out. The results
are particularly tender and succulent
meat with a well-browned outside. Use
the Combi Steam operating mode for
cooking meat, fish, and poultry dishes.
You can choose between different types
of heating:
- Combi Conv Bake
- Combi Surround
- Combi Broil
We recommend cooking meat slowly
and gently in several cooking stages: at
a high temperature during the first
cooking stage to brown the surface.
The second cooking stage requires in-
creased moisture and a reduced tem-
perature. The meat cooks evenly and
the muscle protein is broken down,
making the meat particularly tender.
Tip: Recipes and other information can
be found in the Miele App.
Roasting
150
Automatic Programs

Convection Roast
This operating mode is suitable for
roasting meat and poultry that needs to
be well browned.
Because the blower distributes the heat
around the oven compartment straight
away, you can use a lower temperature
than you would with the Surround
operating mode.
Surround
Use this operating mode for cooking
traditional recipes. If using an older
recipe or cookbook, set the oven tem-
perature 50°F (10°C) lower than that
recommended. This will not change the

wards the end of the cooking duration
to brown the base of the food.
Do not use the Intensiveoperating
mode for roasting as the juices will be-
come too dark.
Roasting
151
Food Probe
The probe allows you to monitor the
roasting process simply and reliably.
How it works
The metal tip of the food probe must be
fully inserted into the center of the food
all the way to the handle. There is a
temperature sensor in the metal tip
which measures the core temperature
of the food during the cooking process.
The core temperature set will depend
on how well cooked you want your
meat to be and on the type of meat.
The temperature can be set between
86and 210°F (30and 99°C).
The cooking duration will depend on a
number of different factors. The higher
the temperature in the oven compart-
ment and the moisture (where applica-
ble) and the thinner the meat, the
quicker the set core temperature will be
reached.
Damage due to high tempera-
tures.
Temperatures higher than 212°F
(100°C) will damage the temperature
sensor in the food probe beyond re-
pair.
If you are not using the food probe,
remove it from the oven compart-
ment when cooking.
When to use the probe
Some automatic programs and Special
Modes will prompt you to use the
probe.
You can also use the probe with Fa-
vorites and with the following operating
modes:
- Convection Bake
- Convection Roast
- Surround
- Combi Conv Bake
- Combi Surround
- Steam Cooking
- Intensive
- Convection Broil
- Humidity Plus
Roasting
152
Important usage notes
- You can place the meat in a pot or on
the wire rack.
- The metal tip of the probe must be
fully inserted into the center of the
food so that the temperature sensor
reaches more or less to the core.
- When cooking poultry, insert the
metal part into the thickest part of the
breast. You can find the thickest part
of the breast by pressing the area
with your thumb and index finger.
- The metal tip must not touch any
bone or be inserted in areas with a lot
of fat. Fatty tissue and bones can
cause the probe to turn off early.
- If the meat is very heavily marbled
with fat, select the highest core tem-
perature given in the cooking charts.
- When using aluminum foil or roasting
bags, insert the probe through the
foil/bag into the center of the food.
You can also place meat inside the
bag or foil with the probe already in-
serted. Be sure to follow the instruc-
tions provided by the manufacturer of
the roasting bag or aluminum foil.
Using the probe
Fully insert the metal tip of the probe
into the center of the meat all the way
to the handle.
If you are cooking several pieces of
meat at the same time, insert the probe
into the largest piece of meat.
Place the food in the oven.
Insert the plug of the probe into the
socket until you feel it engage.
Close the door.
Select an operating mode or auto-
matic program.
Set the temperature and the core
temperature if necessary.
Core temperatures cannot be changed
for automatic programs.
Follow the instructions on the display.
The cooking program finishes as soon
as the core temperature is reached.
Risk of injury caused by hot sur-
faces.
The probe can get hot. You could
burn yourself on it.
Use pot holders when removing the
probe from its socket.

You can estimate approximately when
the food will be ready as the duration of
the cooking program is about the same
as if you were cooking food without us-
ing the probe.
You cannot set Duration and Ready at
because the total cooking duration is
determined by when the set core tem-
perature is reached.

Broiling
154
Danger of injury caused by hot
surfaces.
If you open the appliance door when
broiling, the controls will get very hot.
Keep the door closed during the
broiling program.
Always observe USDA/CFIA food
safety guidelines.
Broiling tips
- Preheating is not necessary when
broiling. Place the food in the cold
oven compartment.
- Use the universal tray with the wire
rack placed on top of it. Exception: if
you are broiling on shelf level3, insert
the universal tray one level down
from the wire rack.
- When broiling fish, place the fish on a
piece of parchment paper cut to size.
- Broil thick food, e.g., half a chicken,
on shelf level2 and thin food, e.g.,
steaks, on shelf level3.
- Turn the food ²/₃ of the way through
the cooking duration. Exception: fish
does not need to be turned.
Tips for broiling
- Marinate lean meat or brush it with
oil. Do not use other types of fat as
they can burn and cause smoke.
- Make diagonal cuts in sausages be-
fore broiling.
- It is best to broil food of a similar
thickness at the same time so that
the broiling time for each item does
not vary too greatly.
- To test the food, press down on the
meat with a spoon. This lets you de-
termine how well the meat has been
cooked.
– Rare/pink
If the meat gives easily to the pres-
sure of the spoon, it will still be red
on the inside.
– Medium
If there is some resistance, the in-
side will be pink.
– Well-done
If there is significant resistance, it
is cooked through.
- To broil thicker pieces of food more
gradually after an initial high tempera-
ture, continue broiling at a lower tem-

Important information on
cleaning and care
Danger of injury caused by hot
surfaces.
The steam oven gets hot during op-
eration. You could burn yourself on
the heater elements, oven compart-
ment, side racks, or accessories.
Allow the heater elements, oven
compartment, side racks, and the
accessories to cool before manual
cleaning.
Risk of injury due to electric
shock.
The steam from a steam cleaner
could reach live electrical compo-
nents and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the steam oven.
All surfaces could be discolored or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. The front of the
steam oven is particularly suscepti-
ble to damage from oven cleaners
and descaling agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Scratches on glass can
lead to breakage in some circum-
stances.
Remove any residual cleaning agent
immediately.
Stubborn soiling could damage the
steam oven in certain circumstances.
Once the oven has cooled, clean the
oven cavity, the inside of the door,
and the door seal. Waiting too long
to clean the oven will make it much
more difficult to clean.
Do not use commercial cleaning
agents. Only use agents designed for
domestic use.
Do not use cleaning agents or liquid
dish soap containing aliphatic hydro-
carbons as these could cause the
seals to swell.
The appliance and accessories
should be cleaned and dried thor-
oughly after each use.
Leave the appliance door open until
the oven compartment is completely
dry.
If the steam oven is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, it
should be thoroughly cleaned and
dried beforehand to prevent the build-
up of odors, etc. Leave the door open
afterward.
Cleaning and care for the steam oven
157
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
- cleaning agents containing soda, am-
monia, acids, or chlorides
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- abrasive cleaning agents (e.g.,pow-
der cleaners and cream cleaners)
- solvent-based cleaning agents
- stainless-steel cleaners
- dishwasher cleaning agents
- cleaning agents for ceramic-glass
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 clean-
ing agents
- oven cleaners and sprays
Glass cleaners may be used to
clean the exterior. However do not
allow them to sit or "puddle", this
can cause damage to the surface.
Remove the cleaner promptly.
Cleaning the steam oven front
Clean the front of the oven with a soft
sponge and a solution of warm water
and liquid dish soap.
After cleaning, wipe the front dry us-
ing a soft cloth.
Tip: A clean, damp microfiber cloth
without cleaning agent can also be
used for cleaning.
Cleaning and care for the steam oven
158
PerfectClean
The oven compartment, side racks, uni-
versal tray, and wire rack surfaces are
treated with PerfectClean. This finish
has an iridescent appearance. Perfect-
Clean surfaces have very good non-
stick properties and are easy to clean.
However, it is important to clean the
surfaces each time the oven is used.
The non-stick properties will deteriorate
if soiling is not removed from Perfect-
Clean surfaces after each use. If used
frequently without being cleaned, clean-
ing may become very difficult.
Soiling such as spilt juices and cake
mixtures are best removed while the
oven compartment is still warm.
Spilt fruit juices may cause discol-
oration to the surfaces that cannot be
removed. However, this does not affect
the properties of the PerfectClean fin-
ish.
Always remove all cleaning agent
residues to protect the non-stick
properties.
To protect the non-stick effect of
PerfectClean surfaces, please avoid:
- abrasive cleaning agents (e.g.,pow-
der cleaners and cream cleaners)
- cleaning agents for ceramic-glass
cooktops
- ceramic-glass and stainless-steel
cleaners
- steel wool
- abrasive sponges, e.g., pot scourers
or sponges which have been previ-
ously used with abrasive cleaning
agents
- oven sprays
- spot cleaning with mechanical clean-
ing agents
Do not clean PerfectClean acces-
sories in the dishwasher.
Cleaning and care for the steam oven
159
Oven compartment
The surface of the oven compart-
ment has been treated with Perfect-
Clean.
See “PerfectClean” under “Cleaning
and care for the steam oven” for in-
structions on cleaning.
Ensure that no cleaning agent gets
into the openings on the oven com-
partment rear panel.
To make cleaning the oven compart-
ment easier, you can remove the oven
door, dismantle the side racks, and
lower the browning/broiling element.
Cleaning after a program using
steam
Remove:
- condensate using a sponge or ab-
sorbent cloth
- light, greasy soiling with a sponge
and a solution of liquid dish soap and
hot water
After cleaning, wipe the surface with
clean water to remove any cleaning
agent residues.
Then dry the oven compartment and
the inside of the door with a cloth.
Tip: You can then leave the steam oven
to dry automatically (see “Maintenance”
under “Cleaning and care for the steam
oven”).
Cleaning after a roasting, broiling, or
baking program
Clean the oven compartment thor-
oughly after roasting, broiling, and
baking as otherwise soiling can burn
on and become impossible to re-
move.
Clean the oven compartment and in-
side of the door with a clean dish
sponge, hot water, and a little liquid
dish soap. You can use the hard sur-
face of a dish sponge to clean the
oven compartment if necessary.
After cleaning, wipe the surface with
clean water to remove any cleaning
agent residues.
Then dry the oven compartment and
the inside of the door with a cloth.
Tip: Soaking the soiling for a few min-
utes with a solution of liquid dish soap
and hot water can make cleaning eas-
ier. Alternatively, run the Maintenance
|Soak program (see “Maintenance” un-
der “Cleaning and care for the steam
oven”).

Cleaning the floor filter
The filter in the floor of the oven
should be cleaned and dried after ev-
ery use.
Vinegar can be used to remove dis-
coloration and limescale deposits
from the filter in the floor of the oven.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water to
remove any residual cleaning agent.
Cleaning the door seal
Grease deposits on the door seal
can cause it to become brittle and
cracked.
Clean the door seal between the in-
side of the oven door and the oven
compartment after every baking or
roasting program.
Clean the door seal using a clean,
damp microfiber cloth without any
cleaning agent. You can also use a
clean sponge and warm water with a
little liquid dish soap.
After cleaning, dry the seal with a soft
cloth.
Replace the seal with a new one if it
becomes porous or brittle.
Door seals can be ordered from the
Miele Customer Service (see the end of
these operating instructions for contact
details).
Cleaning the water container

Descaling the steam oven
We recommend using Miele Descaling
Tablets (see “Optional accessories”) to
descale the appliance. These have
been specially developed for use with
Miele appliances to optimize the
descaling process. Other descaling
agents, which contain other acids be-
sides citric acid and/or other undesir-
able substances, such as chlorides,
could cause damage to the product.
Moreover, the descaling result re-
quired could not be guaranteed if the
descaling solution was not of the ap-
propriate concentration.
Do not spill descaling agent onto
metal surfaces. This can cause
stains to appear.
However, should any descaling
agent get onto these surfaces, wipe
it away immediately.
The steam oven has to be descaled af-
ter a certain number of operating hours.
When the time comes to descale it, the
number of uses remaining lights up in
the display. Only cooking processes
that use steam are counted. The steam
oven will be disabled after the last re-
maining cooking process.
We recommend that you descale the
appliance before it locks out.
During the descaling process, the water
container must be rinsed out and re-
filled with fresh water. The condensate
container needs to be emptied.
