Warning and Safety instructionsNever line the floor of the oven withaluminium foil when using Conventionaltop and bottom heat A, Bottomheat B or Intensive baking F. Donot place a dish, tin, baking tray or grillpan/oven tray on the floor of the oven.If using a grill pan/oven tray made by adifferent manufacturer make sure thatthere is a gap of at least 6 cm betweenthe bottom of the pan and the floor ofthe oven.If these instructions are not observedthe bottom heat will be blocked. Thiscan cause permanent damage to thefloor of the oven.Protective aluminium foil panelsare available in retail outlets whichare supposed to protect the oven cavityfrom soiling and reduce the need forcleaning. If used, cooking and bakingtimes will increase considerably.They can also cause damage to the appliance(e.g. by blocking the heat).General notesDo not leave the appliance unattendedwhen cooking with oils andfats as these can be a fire hazard ifallowed to overheat.Do not use the oven to heat up theroom. Due to the high temperaturesradiated, objects left near theoven or hob could catch fire.Always ensure that food is sufficientlycooked or reheated. Manyfactors will affect the overall cookingtime, including the size and amount offood, its temperature, changes to therecipe and the shape and size of cookingcontainer. Some foods may containmicro organisms which are only destroyedby thorough cooking at temperaturesover 70°C for a minimum of10 minutes. Therefore when cooking orreheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularlyimportant that food is fullycooked through. If in doubt select alonger cooking or reheating time.It is important that the heat is allowedto spread evenly throughout the foodbeing cooked.This can be achieved by stirring and/orturning the food, and by observing asufficiently long standing time, whichshould be added to the time neededfor cooking, reheating or defrosting.11

Warning and Safety instructionsWhen using kitchen appliancesconnected to sockets near theoven, ensure that the cable cannotcome in contact with the hot cookingzones or get trapped in a hot ovendoor, which could melt the cable insulationand be dangerous.Danger of electric shock.Under no circumstances use asteam cleaner to clean this appliance.The steam could attack theelectrical components and cause ashort circuit.Using alcohol in your recipes:often alcoholic drinks such as rum,cognac, wine etc are used when preparingdishes and oven-cooking them.The high temperatures can cause thealcohol to vaporise.Please take note that under adverse circumstancesthe alcohol can catch lighton the hot heating elements.In countries which may be subjectto infestation by cockroaches orother vermin, pay particular attention tokeeping the appliance and its surroundingsin a clean condition at all times.Any damage which might be causedby cockroaches or other vermin will notbe covered by the appliance guarantee.Disposal of your old machineBefore discarding an old machineswitch off and disconnect it fromthe power supply.

Description of the oven systemsDescription of the oven systemsFan Heat DThis system works by the circulation ofheated air.A fan situated on the back wall of theoven sucks in the air, heats it over aring element and blows the heated airthrough the carefully spaced openingsin the rear panel of the oven enablinglower temperatures to be used thanwith the Conventional heating system.The oven does not usually need to bepre-heated as the heated air reachesthe food straight away.Exception: Pre-heating may be necessaryfor foods such as puff pastry andyeast mixtures where instant heat is requiredto make them rise quickly.Using the fan heating system you canbake and roast on different levels at thesame time.If a temperature of at least 140°C is selected,the "rapid heat-up" feature is activatedautomatically.The "Top Heat" heating element switchesin to heat the appliance up morerapidly. This saves energy.Auto Roast EThe oven heats initially to a high temperaturewhich seals the meat to keepit succulent and tasty.As soon as the high temperature hasbeen reached, the oven temperature isautomatically returned to the preselectedsetting.If a temperature of at least 140°C is selected,the "rapid heat-up" feature is activatedautomatically.The "Top Heat" heating element switchesin to heat the appliance up morerapidly. This saves energy.Conventional heating AWith the conventional method of heating,radiant heat is directed on the foodfrom above and below. It is usefulwhere a fairly long cooking time is requiredand a deep colour and goodrise are needed.It is usually necessary to pre-heat theoven for about 20 minutes when usingthis method.If a temperature of at least 150°C is selected,the "rapid heat-up" feature is activatedautomatically.The fan and its heating element switchin to heat the appliance up morerapidly. This saves energy.15

Description of the oven systemsDefrost GDefrost can be operated without heating,or at a temperature of up to 50°C.When the defrost system is used withoutheating the air is circulated by thefan at room temperature.Intensive bake FThis method combines "Fan Heat" withheat from the lower heating element,and is particularly useful for dishes thatrequire a moist topping and crisp baselike pizza and quiche lorraine.Fan grill NThe hot air from the grill is distributedover the food by the fan on the rearwall of the oven. This enables a lowertemperature to be selected than forconventional grilling.Grill 1 m *The inner part of the upper heating elementacts as the grill. This will glow redfor a few minutes after being switchedon, and it is then ready for use. Use theGrill 1 setting for small quantities.Grill 2 n *The entire upper heating element actsas the grill.The inner part of the grill will glow red afew minutes after being switched on.The outer part of the grill will remain noticeablydarker, but will still producethe heat necessary to grill.This method is particularly good for grillinglarge quantities of food using thegrill pan to its full extent.* Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minuteswith the oven door closed, before placingfood under the grill.16

AccessoriesAccessoriesBaking tray, grill pan / oventray and rackThe baking tray, grill pan / oven trayand rack are fitted with non-tip safetynotches which prevent them beingpulled right out when they only need tobe partially pulled out.Roasting filterThe roasting filter must be fitted in frontof the fan when:– using Fan heat D or Automatic roastingE for roasting on the rack or inan open pot or roasting tin.– using Fan grill N.When pushing the tray, pan andrack back in, always ensure that thesafety notches are at the rear of theoven. (See illustration)The tray, pan and rack can then onlybe taken out of the oven by raisingthem upwards and then pulling out.The droplets of fat caught up in thecirculating air are deposited on theroasting filter. This helps to keep theoven and the area behind the interiorback panel cleaner.Do not use the roasting filter whenbaking. This would increase thetimes needed for baking.Roast probeThe roast probe enables the roastingprocess to be monitored simply and reliably.See “Roasting with the roastprobe” for details.29

AccessoriesHandle(depending on model)Telescopic carriage(depending on model)When pushing the baking trays, grillpan / oven tray or rack into theoven, make sure that the telescopiccarriage is pushed completely in.To take the baking trays or the grillpan / oven tray out of the oven, or toput them into it.Anti-splash tray(depending on model)If you wish to use only the lowest runnerlevel for cooking, the side rails canbe taken out.This has the advantage of:– making more space available insidethe oven, for larger roasting tins.– keeping the side rails clean.CatalyserTo be placed in the grill pan / oven traywhen grilling and roasting.The juices from the food being cookedcollect under the anti-splash tray,rather than being dried out, and theycan then be used in sauces etc.Depending on model your appliancemay be fitted with a catalyser.The catalyser is built in to the oven’scooling system.The catalyser filters fatty vapours andreduces food smells.30

BakingBakingThe following settings are recommendedfor baking:– Fan Heat D– Intensive Bake F– Conventional ABakewareFor the best baking results make surethat you chose bakeware in a materialsuitable for the particular heating system.– "Fan Heat D", "Intensive baking F"Most types of heat-resistant tins ordishes are suitable, including thinwalledand bright, non-reflective metaltins. Place the tin or dish on thebaking tray in the oven.– "Conventional A"The following baking tins give anevenly browned result:Dark metal, aluminium or enamel tinswith a matt finish are preferable.Heat resistant glass dishes can alsobe used.Avoid bright, shiny metal tins. Thesereflect heat which means that theheat does not penetrate to the foodeffectively and will result in unevenor poor browning. In some cases thecakes might not cook properly.Place the tin or dish directly on thenon-tip rack in the oven.Fan Heat DSeveral levels can be used at the sametime for baking. The recommended positionsare:1 tray = 1st runner from the bottom2 trays = 1st and 3rd runnersfrom the bottom3 trays = 1st, 2nd and 5th runnersfrom the bottom.When baking moist biscuits, cakesor bread, do not bake on more thantwo levels.If baking on three levels place tinson the oven tray on the 1st runnerposition and on baking trays on theother runner levels.Remember to remove the roasting(grease) filter from in front of the fanopening. Otherwise the baking timewill be longer and results uneven.With Fan Heat D lower baking temperaturesare needed than with theConventional A setting. See the bakingcharts.Intensive baking FRemember to remove the roasting(grease) filter from in front of the fanopening. Otherwise the baking timewill be longer.This method of heating is particularlyuseful for:– dishes that require a moist toppingand crisp base, such as pizzas andquiche lorraine, or where the basehas not been pre-baked.Place the tin or dish on the baking trayon the 1st runner from the bottom. If thebase is overcooked, use a higher levelrunner next time.38

BakingConventional AUse dark metal or enamel tins witha matt finish.Bright, shiny metal tins result inuneven or poor browning and insome cases cakes might not cookproperly.This function is particularly good forrich fruit cakes, pastries and breadswhere a fairly long cooking time is requiredand a deep colour and goodrise are needed.It is usually necessary to pre-heat theoven for about 20 minutes when usingthis method.Place tins on the rack on runner level1 or 2.General notesPlace rectangular tins in the oven asshown in the illustration.Bake any deep-frozen items such aspizzas on baking paper on the rack itself.Do not place them on the bakingtray or in the grill pan/oven tray.This could cause the metal to distort tosuch an extent that it might be impossibleto remove the pan from theoven whilst it is still hot. This distortionwould increase with subsequent use.Deep frozen foods such as oven chipsor potato croquettes can be cooked onthe baking tray or grill pan/oven.The Baking Chart gives suggestionsfor temperature, runner height andtiming.For even browning -– in general select the middle temperature.Increasing the temperature and reducingthe time can have an adverseeffect on even browning. Insome cases cakes might not cookproperly.– Select the runner height accordingto the recipe and the setting chosen.– Just before the end of baking timetest to see if the cake is done.Insert a metal or wooden skewer intothe centre.If it comes out clean, without doughor crumbs sticking to it, the cake isready.39

RoastingRoastingWe recommend the following settingsfor roasting in the oven:– Auto Roast E– Conventional AAuto Roast:When roasting on the rack or in anopen tin make sure the roasting(grease) filter is fitted in front of thefan in the back of the oven interiorbefore starting.We recommend roasting in acovered pot L:– This ensures that sufficient stockremains for making gravy.– The oven stays cleaner, too.Roasting pots with a lid, made fromearthenware, cast iron, ovenproofchina or glass, and roasting foil are suitable.Place the covered pot on the rack intoa cold oven.Exception: Pre-heat the oven to the temperaturerecommended in the recipewhen cooking roast beef or beef fillet.Open roasting:Use shelf position 1 for roasting.Exception: With "Conventional A" useshelf position 2 when roasting poultryweighing up to 1 kg, a cut of meat, orfish.The "Auto Roast E" system uses anapproximately 40°C lower roasting temperaturethan the "Conventional A"heating system.For roasting directly on the rack Kthe temperature needs to be about20°C lower than for roasting in acovered pot L.When roasting on the rack place therack and anti-splash tray over the grillpan / oven tray and push them intogether.The roasting time will depend on thetype of meat, the size and thickness ofthe cut.Make sure that the pot and lid haveheat-resistant handles.42

RoastingCalculating roasting time:The traditional British method is to allow15 to 20 minutes to the lb, according totype of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes,adjusting length of time as roasting proceeds,to obtain the required result.Alternatively, multiply the height of thejoint by the time per cm for the type ofmeat, as in the chart.Type of meatBeef / VenisonPork / Veal / LambSirloin fillettime per cmheight of meat15-18 mins.12-15 mins.8-10 mins.Example:Beef roast, 8 cm high8 x 15 mins. per cm = 120 mins. roastingtimeTips:Do not select a roasting temperaturewhich is higher than that recommended.The meat will become brown,but will not be cooked properly.Browning only occurs towards the endof the roasting time. Remove the lidabout halfway through the roasting timeif a more intensive browning effect isdesired.After the roasting process is finishedtake the roast out of the oven, wrap inaluminium foil and leave to stand forabout 10 minutes.This helps retain juices when the meatis carved.Roasting in a covered pot LSeason the meat and place in the pot.Add some knobs of butter or margarineor a little oil or cooking fat. Add about1/8 litre of water when roasting a biglean joint of meat (2-3 kg) or roastingpoultry with a high fat content.Roasting on the rack KPlace a little water in the tray. Add alittle fat or oil to very lean meat or placea few strips of bacon on the top. Do notadd too much liquid to the tray duringcooking as this will hinder the browningprocess. Baste during cooking.Roasting poultryFor a crisp finish, baste the poultry tenminutes before the end of cooking timewith slightly salted water.Roasting deep frozen meatDeep frozen meat should be thoroughlydefrosted beforehand.43

Roasting with the Roast ProbeRoasting with the Roast ProbeDepending on model a roast probe(core temperature probe) may be supplied.Using the roast probe enables theroasting process to be monitored simplyand reliably.The tip of the probe measures the coretemperature at the centre of the meatcontinuously.When the pre-selected core temperatureis reached, the oven heating isautomatically switched off.The roast probe can be used with thefollowing functions:– Auto Roast E– Conventional A– Fan Heat D– Fan Grill NPlease note:You can place the meat in a pot or onthe rack.Roasting bags or aluminium foil mayalso be used, but only when left openat the ends. Insert the probe throughthe foil or bag into the centre of themeat.If fat or bone come into contact with theprobe, this can lead to the oven beingswitched off too early. Therefore:– do not let the probe touch any bones.– do not insert it into a particularly fattyarea of the meat.If the meat is very heavily marbled withfat, select the highest core temperaturegiven in the roasting chart.Using the roast probePrepare the meat in the usual way.Insert the probe as far as possibleinto the meat.The tip of the probe must reach thecentral area of the meat.When roasting poultry, the best placeto insert the probe is the thickest partbetween thigh and body.If your oven is fitted with a telescopiccarriage it is best to remove the runnersbefore using the roast probe.44

Roasting with the Roast ProbeTo do this:Press the "e" button.Enter the desired temperature usingthe "+" or "–" buttons.Insert the plug of the roast probe intothe socket until you feel it engage.Turn the function selector to the requiredoven function.The following light up:– the recommended oven temperaturein the oven display,– the indicator light for the "+/–" button.The recommended oven temperaturecan be altered if required with the"+/–" button.Next, a food core temperature of 60°Cappears in the oven display, and the indicatorlight for the "+/–" button is on.If necessary this food core temperaturecan be altered with the "+/–" buttonaccording to the type of food beingcooked, (see "Oven roasting chart" forsuitable choice of temperatures) andcan be altered within a range of 20°Cto 99°C.When the light in the "+/–" button goes out– the oven heating switches on.– the actual core temperature appearsin the oven display. N.B. Thelowest temperature that can be displayedis 20°C, so this will also beshown until the roast probe registers20°C.45

Roasting with the Roast ProbeTime left displayIf, when the residual time is displayed:– the oven or core temperature is altered,– or a different oven function is chosen,this will cancel all the residual time information,and the actual temperature willreappear.If the oven door is held open for sometime, the residual time will be recalculated.Cooking time is completed automatically.After a certain time the estimated residualtime (i.e. the time left to run), appearsin the oven display. The actualcore temperature is no longer visibleand cannot be called up.The residual time is calculated from theoven temperature selected, the requiredcore temperature and the patternof the increasing core temperature.The residual time figure first shown isan estimate. As the cooking processcontinues the figure is continuously revised,and a more accurate revised figureshown.Shortly before the end of cooking timethe oven heating switches off.The Energy-save function (as describedunder "Oven - use") comes intoaction. The time left continues to beshown in the display. If the " p" button ispressed, "EC" appears.If the oven temperature is altered or thecore temperature increased, the ovenheating will switch on again.46

Roasting with the Roast ProbeEnd of cooking timeAs soon as the chosen core temperaturehas been reached– an audible tone sounds for approx.5 seconds, and– the "e" symbol flashes.If the audible tone is not cancelledearly, it will continue to sound every5 minutes for an hour as a reminderthat the process has finished.The audible tone and the flashing "e"symbol can be cancelled by:– pressing the "e" button.If the food is not sufficiently cooked,a new core temperature can be entered.– turning the oven function selector to"0".Any temperatures entered will alsobe cancelled.Please note:The timer can be used to delay thestart of the cooking process.When finished, cover the meat withaluminium foil and allow to stand forapprox. 10 minutes. During this timethe core temperature rises another5 – 10°C.If the temperature probe is left in thefood at the end of the cooking process,the oven display will show the core temperaturefirst rising and then sinking.The time taken to roast meat by temperatureusing the probe is similar tothat when cooking by time.You may need to insert the probe in adifferent place and start again:– if the cut of meat was too large (3 kgor more) for the probe to be insertedright to the centre.– if the meat is not sufficiently roastedwhen the set temperature is reached.47

DefrostingDefrostingTurn the function selector to"Defrost G"For defrosting meat and delicate foodwe recommend defrosting at room temperature,i.e. without selecting an oventemperature.However, an oven temperature of up to50°C can be selected.– Where possible remove the packagingand put the food to be defrostedon a baking tray or into adish.– All meat and poultry should be fullydefrosted before cooking. Do notuse the liquids from defrosting.– When defrosting poultry put it on therack over the grill pan / oven tray tocatch the defrosted liquid, so thatthe meat is not lying in this liquid.Do not refreeze food once it hasthawed.The time needed for defrosting dependson the type and weight of thefood, and at what temperature it wasdeep frozen.It is particularly important to observefood hygiene rules when defrostingpoultry. Do not use the liquidfrom the defrosted poultry. Pourit away, and wash the tray, the sinkand your hands.– Fish does not need to be fully defrostedbefore cooking. Defrost sothat the surface is sufficiently soft totake herbs and seasoning.49

GrillingGrillingPre-heat the grill for at least 5minutes with the oven door shut.Grill 2 nGrilling with the oven door shutsaves energy and minimizes cookingsmells.The oven has three grill settings:Grill 1 mFor grilling large quantities of thin cutsand for browning food in large dishes.The whole of the grill element isswitched on.Fan Grill NFor grilling larger items, for example,poultry, rolled meat.For grilling small quantities of thin cutsand for browning small dishes of food.The inner part of the grill element isswitched on and glows red.Put the roasting filter in front of thefan grille in the back of the ovenwhen using this setting.The roast probe can also be used tomonitor the temperature. See the appropriatesectionThe roast probe cannot be used atthe same time as the rotisserie. Thecable would wind round the rotisserieand be damaged.51

GrillingPreparing food for grillingClean, wipe and season.Add a little oil if necessary. Other fatsquickly become black or cause thefood to smoke. A little butter can beadded to chicken if desired.Clean flat fish and slices of fish in thenormal way. To enhance the taste adda little salt or squeeze a little lemonjuice over the fish.Grilling on the rackMake sure you insert the grill pan at theappropriate level for the height of thefood to be grilled:thin cuts =level 4 or 5thicker cuts =level 3 or 4It is best to grill food of a similar thicknessat the same time so that the grillingtime for each item does not varytoo greatly.Most items should be turned half waythrough cooking.Grilling on the spit(depending on model)For grilling thicker items such asstuffed meat, poultry, kebabs.Assemble the grill pan, anti-splashtray (if available) and rack as shown.Place the food on the rack.Turn the oven function selector to therequired grill setting.Pre-heat the grill for at least 5 minuteswith the oven door closed.Place the grill pan under the grill.Assemble the rotisserie as shown.52

GrillingGrilling timeTwo special accessories for rotisseriegrilling, a meat and poultry clamp, anda kebab grilling device are availablefrom your Miele dealer or the MieleSpare Parts Department.Turn the oven function selector to therequired grill setting.Put the grill pan holding the assembledrotisserie in the oven, using the1st runner from the bottom.The spit fits into the motor slot at theback of the oven.Set the temperatureFood to be grilled temperatureThin cutssuch as chops, steak 275°CThicker cutssuch as chicken, kebabs 240°CTo grill thicker pieces of food moregradually, select an initial high temperature,continue grilling at a lower temperaturesetting to allow the food tocook through to the centre.Flat pieces of fish and meat usuallyneed about 5-6 minutes a side dependingon their texture.Thicker pieces need longer.With rolled meat allow approx.10 minutes per cm diameter.Useful grilling hintsOne way of finding out how far througha piece of meat has been cooked is topress down on it with a spoon.– If there is very little resistance to thepressure of the spoon, it is still redon the inside ("rare").– If there is some resistance, the insidewill be pink ("medium").– If there is great resistance, it isthoroughly cooked through ("welldone").53

Cleaning and careCleaning and careAppliance front and controlpanelWipe down the appliance front, the controlpanel and, on the H 390, the decorativetrims with a mild cleaning agentor a solution of hot water with a littlewashing up liquid. Wipe dry with a softcloth.Do not use abrasive cleaningagents, sponges or brushes, asthese would scratch the surface.White or coloured frontsFor ovens with a white or coloured finishwe recommend after each use wiping:– the oven door handle and– the control panelwith a damp cloth and some washingup liquid. This will help deter soilingfrom sticking on and becoming difficultto remove.Stainless steel frontsNever use cleaners containingchlorides, sand, soda or scouringagents. These will leave scratchesand damage the surface.Apply a non-abrasive proprietary stainlesssteel cleaner sparingly and evenlyusing a soft cloth following the manufacturer’sinstructions.AccessoriesDo not leave accessories in theoven when not in use.Roasting filterClean in a solution of hot water and alittle washing up liquid or in the dishwasher.Note: some dishwasher detergentsmay cause the surface of the metal filterto discolour. This discolouration willnot affect the functioning of the filter inany way.Racks and side supportsThe stainless steel surfaces of thesehave been treated with PerfectCleanenamelling.They should be cleaned in the sameway as other surfaces with Perfect-Clean enamelling. See "PerfectClean".Roast probe and baking carriage telescopicrunners (if fitted)Wipe with a damp cloth.Do not put the roast probe or thebaking carriage telescopic runnersinto water, or clean them in the dishwasher.This would damage them.RotisserieClean in a solution of hot water and alittle washing up liquid. Stubborn soilingshould be soaked first before beingremoved. If necessary a non-abrasiveproprietary stainless steel cleaner maybe used.55

Cleaning and carePerfectCleanBefore using for the first timeremove any stickers from Perfect-Clean surfaces.The enamelled surfaces of the oven interior,baking tray, grill pan / oven tray,rack and side supports have beentreated with a new type of enamellingcalled "PerfectClean".This surface has very good anti-stickproperties which is much easier tokeep clean than conventional oven enamel.Food can be taken off it more easilyand soiling from baking and roasting iseasier to remove.The following notes on cleaning andcare should ensure that the anti-stickand easy clean properties of Perfect-Clean last for many years.PerfectClean surfaces can be treatedas you would treat glass. If you are unsurewhether a particular cleaning productis suitable for PerfectClean considerwhether you could clean awindow pane with the product withoutdamaging it.Food can be sliced or cut up on thePerfectClean surface in the same wayas on a baking tray with conventionalenamel.Allow the oven and any accessoriesto cool down before cleaning.Danger of burning!Normal soilingClean as soon as possible after eachuse with a dishcloth, soft sponge (e.g.the Vileda sponge as supplied with theoven) or a soft nylon brush, and a solutionof hot water and a little washing upliquid.Stubborn soilingStubborn soiling e.g. from roasting mayneed to be soaked first with a dampsponge to loosen it and if necessary ascraper suitable for glass surfaces canbe used to remove it.After cleaning rinse thoroughly withclean water. The water must run off thesurface easily. Any residual cleaningagents will hinder this effect.Using oven sprays on very stubbornsoilingSome oven cleaners contain strongalkalines and / or abrasivematerials. Because the enamel isdesigned to be easily cleaned theuse of these cleaners is not recommended.However if you still cannot get thesurface clean, an oven cleaner canbe used.Do not attempt to use on a hot ovenor accessories. Allow the Perfect-Clean surfaces to cool down toroom temperature before applyingoven sprays!56

Cleaning and careRemove the catalytic back paneland roof panels before using ovensprays. The chemicals used in ovensprays will damage catalytic enamelrendering it ineffective.Apply a spray oven cleaner to thesoiled areas. Leave to take effect for acouple of minutes only!If necessary use a soft sponge (e.g.the Vileda sponge as supplied with theoven), soft nylon brush or a scrapersuitable for glass surfaces to loosenthe soiling.Repeat the process if necessary.After cleaning rinse thoroughly withclean water and then dry thoroughly.ImportantFor optimum performance of the PerfectCleanenamel it is important toclean the oven and accessories aftereach use.The surfaces will become harder toclean and the anti-stick properties willdeteriorate if soiling is not removedafter each use and allowed to build-up.In extreme cases cleaning may evenbecome impossible.The following cause lasting damageto the surface structure and reducethe anti-stick effect and must not beused on PerfectClean surfaces:– abrasive cleaning agents– cleaning agents for ceramic hobs– wire wool or metal scourers– pot scourers– oven cleaning pads– sponges and cloths which havepreviously been used withabrasive cleaning agents.– oven spray must not be used in ahot oven or left on for too long.– items coated with PerfectCleanenamelling must not be cleanedin a dishwasher.NoteSoiling such as spilt juices and cakemixtures are best removed whilst theoven or tray is still warm. Exercise caution,make sure the oven is not hot -danger of burning!Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting discolourationof the surfaces and roastingcan cause matt areas to appear.Clean these following the instructionsgiven above and do not try and useforce to remove them! This discolourationis permanent but will not affectthe efficiency of the enamel.57

Cleaning and careCleaning and CareCatalytic enamel surfacesThe removable back panel and roofliner are coated with a dark grey catalyticenamel.During fan operated cooking circulatingair in the oven deposits oil and fatsplashes predominantly on the backpanel of the oven. These splashes areburnt off when the temperature of theoven reaches over 200°C during bakingor roasting. The higher the temperaturethe more effective the process.The oven and accessories should becleaned after each use. Otherwise furtherbaking and roasting will cause thedeposits to bake on even harder andcleaning may become difficult and inextreme cases impossible.Cleaning by handAllow the oven to cool down beforecleaning. Danger of burning!Catalytic enamelled panels shouldbe cleaned using a solution of hotwater with a little washing up liquidapplied with a soft nylon brush.Do not use abrasive cleaningagents, hard brushes, scouringpads or cloths, steel wool, knives orother abrasive materials and do notuse oven spray on catalytic enamelas the chemicals used in ovensprays will damage catalytic enamelrendering it ineffective.If using oven sprays on Perfect-Clean oven surfaces the catalyticback panel and roof panel must firstbe removed from the oven.58

Cleaning and careCatalytic cleaning processBefore cleaning the catalytic panelsusing high temperatures, make surethat all PerfectClean surfaces havebeen cleaned as previously described.Otherwise, the high temperaturescan cause deposits tobecome baked on to the Perfect-Clean surfaces and become impossibleto remove.If, after manual cleaning, the oven isstill heavily soiled, heating it to a hightemperature will help remove furthersoiling caused by oil and greasesplashes from the catalytic surfaces.Note that deposits of spices, syrupsand similar substances are notremoved by this process. These shouldbe removed while fresh by hand with amild solution of hot water and washingup liquid applied with a soft brush.To clean at high temperatures:Turn the oven selector toFan heat D.Turn the temperature selector to thehighest setting.Run the oven for approx. 1 hour. Thelength of time will depend on thelevel of soiling.It is a good idea to set the finish timefor the process using the timer. Thisway you will not forget to switch theoven off at the end.Any remaining soiling will gradually disappearwith each subsequent use ofthe oven at high temperatures.Should the catalytic enamelling onthe back panel or the roof linerbecome ineffective through improperuse or heavy soiling, a replacementcan be obtained fromyour Miele dealer or the Miele SpareParts dept.59

Cleaning and careCleaning and careTo make cleaning easier you can– remove the oven door,– take out the telescopic carriage orthe runners,– take out the back panel– lower the top heating element.To remove the oven doorPlease note : the oven door isheavy. It should be gripped firmly atthe sides when being removed or refitted.Open the door fully.Before the door can be removed,the door hinges need to be lockedso that they do not damage thedoor when it is taken out.Almost shut the door then lift it upuntil the hinges disengage. Removethe door.To re-fit the oven doorHold the door as shown above andcarefully put the locked hinges intothe guide holes until they engage.Open the door fully.Still supporting the door, flip the lockingclamps up.Flip down the locking clamps oneach door hinge. This locks thehinges.It is essential that the lockingclamps are flipped up when thedoor is re-fitted after cleaning.Otherwise on closing the door, thehinges could work loose from theguide holes and this could result indamage to the door.60

Cleaning and careTo remove the telescopic carriage(according to model)Make sure the oven heating elementsare switched off and cool toavoid the danger of being burnt.Pull on the fixing knob to release it.Pull out the telescopic carriage andremove the side runners.Take the guide rails out of the oven.Reassemble in reverse order, carefullyensuring all parts are correctly in place.Remove the frame from the guiderails.61

Cleaning and careTo remove the runners(according to model)Make sure the oven heating elementsare switched off and cool toavoid the danger of being burnt.Take the runners out of the oven.Reassemble in the reverse order, carefullyensuring all parts are correctly inplace.Pull on the fixing knob to release it.62
