IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 5 Safety Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. Do not use the oven to heat the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven could catch fire. Times for cooking, heating and defrosting food in the convection microwave oven are shorter than that of traditional food preparation methods. Extensive microwaving could dry out food and cause possible ignition. Fire hazard! Do not use the microwave function to dry bread, flowers, herbs, etc. Use the Convection Bake function. Do not heat cushions filled with herbs, gel, etc. with the microwave function. The cushions could ignite, even once removed from the oven after heating. This is a fire hazard. Do not use full power when warming empty dishes or drying herbs. The lack or minimal amount of food could cause damage to the appliance. Do not use for cleaning and disinfecting utensils and cookware. There is a risk of burns from the high temperatures from the utensil when it is taken out of the oven. This is a fire hazard. Supervise cooking with grease or oils. Oils and grease could ignite. Never heat undiluted alcohol in the microwave oven, it can easily ignite. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed to avoid fueling any flames. Turn the oven off or disconnect the power supply. If smoke occurs in the oven, to avoid fueling any flames, do not open the oven door. Switch the appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF button, switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the outlet. Do not open the oven door until the smoke has dispersed. To avoid corrosion damage from condensation: – Cover meals when cooking with the Microwave Solo function. – When using residual heat to keep food warm, leave the selected function on and select the lowest temperature. Do not turn the oven off. Condensation from food and drinks could cause damage to the machine or the countertop and cabinetry. Leaving the machine on will keep the fan running to aid in dissipating the condensation. –Cover food stored in the oven interior. Condensation from food and drinks could cause corrosion damage. It also prevents the food from drying out. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 6 Only use accessories approved by Miele for use with this machine. Use of other accessories may cause damage and void the warranty. Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with this appliance. If a replacement is necessary it can be ordered from Miele or your Miele dealer. When not in use do not leave the roast probe in the oven, especially when broiling. The high temperatures used for broiling could cause plastic components on the roast probe to melt. Do not lean, sit or place heavy items on the open oven door. The machine may be damaged. The door can hold a max. of 17.5 lbs (8 kg). Do not cover or block any opening on the appliance. Aluminum foil should not be used to line the oven floor. To avoid damage, do not place pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor. Microwave function PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to damage or tamper with the safety interlocks. Do not place any object between the oven front and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel. Do not operate the convection microwave oven empty! The oven will be damaged. Be sure to use cookware suitable for the function being used. See "Selecting cookware". The provided combi rack is specially designed for use in this oven. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 7 Do not leave the appliance unattended when heating food in disposable, e.g. plastic, paper or other flammable materials. See "Selecting cookware". Do not use the oven to heat food in heat retaining packaging, e.g. take-out food packaging. This packaging contains a thin layer of aluminum foil which reflects the microwaves. This reflected energy can cause the paper layer to ignite. Before serving food allow a sufficient standing time. Always check the temperature of the food itself after taking it out of the microwave oven. Do not judge by the plate temperature. The heat is created in the food, the dishes may stay cool to the touch. Always check the temperature before serving heated baby food. Use a food thermometer to measure the foods temperature. Do not use thermometers containing mercury or liquids, they are not suitable for high temperatures and break easily. Always check that food is sufficiently heated. The time required varies depending on a number of factors, such as initial temperature, quantity, type and consistency of the food, and changes in the recipe. Germs present in the food are killed off only at a sufficiently high temperature (> 158° F) and after a sufficiently long time (> 10 Min.). Select a longer cook time if you are unsure if food is thoroughly heated. To ensure temperature is distributed evenly, stir and rotate food occasionally before serving. Never cook or reheat food and liquids in sealed containers or bottles. Remove the nipple or lid before heating in the microwave oven. Built-up pressure may cause them to burst. Danger of injuries. When heating liquids, the provided boiling wand should be placed into the container. When heating liquids, milk, sauces, etc., in the oven without the boiling wand, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of bubbles. The liquid will not boil evenly. This "boiling delay" can cause a sudden build up of steam bubbles, when the container is removed from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively. Danger of burning! The built-up pressure may force the oven door open. This could result in injury or damage. The boiling wand ensures that the liquid boils evenly and that steam bubbles form at an early stage. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 8 Eggs must only be cooked in their shells in the microwave oven in a device designed specifically for microwave egg boiling. Hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven. The eggs may burst, even once they have been removed from the oven. Eggs can be cooked without their shells in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punctured first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode. Danger of injuries. Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages and potatoes should be pierced in several places before cooking to allow steam to vent and prevent the food from bursting. Do not use dishware with hollow handles or lid knobs. Moisture can get into the hollow parts. (The hollow parts of some dishware can be vented). Danger of built-up pressure and the explosion of the hollow parts may cause injuries. Solo functions: Convection Bake, Auto Roast, Broil, Convection Broil Caution! Danger of burns! When using solo functions the oven interior gets very hot. Be sure to use cookware suitable for the function being used. See "Selecting cookware". Use pot holders when working with a hot appliance. Especially the upper heating element gets extremely hot when using any broil function. Danger of burning!

Material and shape 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 and lids which contain hollow handles or knobs are not suitable for use in the oven. The handles or knobs could collect moisture if not adequately vented. Without vent holes pressure can build up, causing the container to crack or shatter, danger of injury. Metal Do not use metal containers, aluminum foil, cutlery or dishes with metal decor during the microwave-solo function. Metal reflects the microwaves which hinders the cooking process. Sparks may occur. Do not use plastic cups with incompletely removed aluminum lids (such as cream cups). The remnants of the lids can lead to sparking. Selecting cookware 22 Exceptions: The enclosed combi rack is only suitable for combi functions not the microwave solo function. Do not set it on the oven floor. –Metal baking dishes are suitable for baking with a combination microwave baking method. However they are not recommended, metal reflects the microwaves causing longer cooking times. In addition, the use of metal pans could cause sparking. – Pre-cooked meals in aluminum foil containers can be defrosted and reheated in the oven.Important: Remove the lid before heating the food. The food is heated only from above. To heat the food evenly place it in a container suitable for microwaving. When using aluminum foil containers, crackling and sparking may occur, do not place them on the combi rack. –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 wing-tips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the process. Make sure that the aluminum foil is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls. –Metal meat skewers or clamps should only be used if they are small in comparison to the size of the meat. Glassware Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glassware are ideal for use in the oven. Crystal contains lead and is unsuitable. Porcelain (china) Porcelain (china) is suitable for use in the oven. Do not use porcelain with gold or silver edging or items with hollow knobs or handles, insufficient ventilation may cause damage. Earthenware Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath the glaze. Earthenware can get very hot and may crack. Glazes and colors Some glazes and colors contain metallic substances. They are not suitable for the oven. Wood Wood containers are not suitable. The water from the wood evaporates during the cooking process causing it to dry out and crack. Selecting cookware 23 Plastics Use plastic dishes only for Microwave - Solo. They must be heat resistant up to 230°F (110°C) otherwise the plastic may melt into the food. Special plasticware, designed for use in microwave ovens is available in retail outlets. Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and reheating. They should be pierced beforehand so that steam can escape. This prevents a build-up of pressure and reduces the risk of the bag bursting. Disposable containers Only those plastic disposable containers specified under "Plastics" are suitable for use in the oven. Do not leave the oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other flammable materials. Disposable containers are not always microwave safe. Roasting bags These bags can be used in the oven. Please follow the manufacturers’ instructions. Do not use metal clips, plastic clips with metal parts, or twist ties containing wire. They could ignite when heated. Selecting cookware 24 Covering the food Use a cover only during the Microwave-Solo function. Do not use a cover if using a combination program which uses microwave power. Plastics are only heat-resistant up to 230°F (110°C). Higher temperatures (Broiling, Convection Bake, etc.) can cause the cover to melt into the food. The cover should not completely seal the container. This may prevent steam from escaping causing the cover to melt. A cover: – prevents most of the steam from escaping, especially when cooking foods which needs longer to cook, such as potatoes. –shortens and evens out the cooking process. –prevents the food from drying out. –prevents soiling of the oven interior. Cover the food with a glass or plastic lid suitable for microwave ovens. They are available in retail stores. Plastic wrap suitable for microwaving can also be used. Do not heat food in closed containers e.g. glass baby food containers. Vent the container before heating. Do not use a lid or cover when cooking food if a crisp finish is desired e.g. breaded chicken, garlic bread, etc. Selecting cookware 25 Programming the oven When the oven is first connected to the electrical supply you will be prompted to set the time of day. See "Settings - Clock". Cleaning the appliance Remove the protective film from the appliance front (if present). Wipe the interior with a solution of warm water and liquid dish soap. Dry with a soft cloth. Leave the door open until the interior is completely dry. Otherwise odors and corrosion may occur. Wash the accessories. See "Cleaning and care" for more information. Before using the oven 26 Heating the oven New ovens may have a slight odor during the first use. To eliminate the odor quickly, the oven should be operated at a high temperature for 2 hours. Before heating the oven, remove all accessories and labels. Make sure the room is well ventilated during this process. Touch the "On" control. Select the "Bake" function. Select "Convection Bake".
