Miele H 212 Instruction Manual

							Correct use
Danger of burning!
The oven becomes hot when in use.
Exercise care when handling food and trays so as not to burn
yourself on heating elements, the walls of the oven, shelf runners,
trays and hot food itself.
Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or
removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.
Do not use the oven to heat up the room.
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the
appliance could catch fire.
Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or
fats as these are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.
Do not attempt to extinguish oil or fat fires with water.
Switch off the oven and smother the flames by keeping the oven
door closed.
Make sure that you keep to the recommended grilling times when
using grilling functions.
Excessively long grilling times can lead to food drying out and
burning or could even cause the food to catch fire.
Warning and Safety instructions

							Some foods dry out very quickly and can be ignited by high
grilling temperatures. Do not use grilling functions for crisping rolls
or bread or to dry flowers or herbs. Instead use Fan Plusor
Conventional Heat.
If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high
temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and even to ignite
on the hot heating elements.
When residual heat is used to keep food warm, the high level of
humidity and condensation can cause corrosion in the oven. The
control panel, worktop or furniture unit may also be damaged.
Do not switch the oven off completely while food is inside it, but
select the lowest possible temperature for the oven function you are
using. This will ensure the fan will automatically continue to run.
Cover any food which is left in the oven to be kept hot, as
moisture in the food could lead to corrosion damage in the oven.
This also prevents the food from drying out.
Never cover the floor of the oven with aluminium foil, or place
oven dishes, pans, saucepans or trays directly onto the floor of the
oven.
This would cause concentrations of heat which could cause damage
to the floor of the oven.
When storing pots or pans in the oven, do not slide them across
the floor of the oven as this will damage the enamel coating.
Warning and Safety instructions
12 
						

							Never pour cold water onto hot surfaces in a hot oven.
The steam created could cause serious burns or scalding and the
sudden change in temperature can damage the enamel in the oven.
It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly
throughout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring
and/or turning the food.
Plastic containers, which are not heat-resistant, melt and may
ignite at high temperatures and can damage the oven.
Use only plastic containers that are indicated by the manufacturer
as being suitable for use in ovens.
Do not use the appliance to heat up or bottle food in sealed jars
and tins.
Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode causing
damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and scalding.
Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may
trip over it or be injured by it.
The oven door can support a maximum load of 15 kg.
Do not lean or sit on an open oven door, or place heavy items on it.
Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between the door and
the oven cavity. This could damage the oven.
Warning and Safety instructions

							Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this oven.
Pressurised steam could reach the electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Scratches on the door glass can result in the glass breaking.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, hard sponges, brushes or sharp
metal tools to clean the door glass.
The shelf runners can be removed for cleaning purposes (see
Cleaning and care).
Ensure they are correctly fitted after cleaning and never operate the
oven without the shelf runners fitted.
The catalytic enamelled back panel can be removed for cleaning
purposes (see Cleaning and care).
Ensure it is correctly fitted after cleaning and never operate the
oven without the back panel fitted.
Warning and Safety instructions

							Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be
invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
If you have a Miele HUB 5000-M/HUB 5001-M/HUB 5000-XL oven
dish, do not place it on shelf level 1.
This would damage the floor of the oven. The very small gap
between the bottom of the dish and the oven floor would cause a
build-up of heat and could cause the enamel to crack or chip.
Do not place Miele oven dishes on the top rail of shelf level 1 as they
will not be secured in this position by the anti-tip safety notches on
the sides of the dishes.
Instead, use shelf level 2 for these oven dishes.

							Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Therefore, please do not dispose of
your old appliance with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre.
Ensure that your old appliance presents
no danger to children while being
stored for disposal.
