Miele H 5240 B Manual

							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.
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.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
Disposal 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.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by a
competent person.

							Oven controls
In addition to operating the various
cooking programmes to bake, roast
and grill the controls also offer the
following:
–a time of day display,
–a minute minder,
–a timer to automatically switch
cooking programmes on and off,
–settings that can be customised.
Safety features
System lock
The system lockprevents the oven
from being used unintentionally by
children, for example. See "System
lock".
Safety switch-off
The oven will switch itself off
automatically if it has been on for an
unusually long period of time.
The period of time will depend on the
particular oven function being used.
If it has switched itself off automatically
"Fault 55" will appear in the display.
The oven can be used again immedi-
ately after switching it off and back on.Cooling system
A cooling fan will come on
automatically when a cooking
programme is started. The cooling fan
mixes hot air from the oven cavity with
cool room air before venting it out into
the kitchen through vents located
between the appliance door and the
control panel.
The cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after the oven has been switched
off to prevent any humidity building up
in the oven, on the control panel or on
the oven housing unit.
When the temperature in the oven has
fallen sufficiently, the cooling fan will
switch off automatically.
Vented oven door
The oven door is an open system and
the door panes have a heat-reflecting
coating. During operation, cool air is
passed through the oven door to keep
the outer pane cool.
If necessary, the oven door can be
dismantled for cleaning.

							PerfectClean treated surfaces
The following surfaces are all treated
with PerfectClean enamelling:
–Oven interior,
–Runners,
–Baking tray,
–Universal tray,
–Anti-splash insert (if present) and
–Rack
PerfectClean enamelled surfaces have
very good anti-stick properties and are
much easier to keep clean than
conventional enamel, if cleaned
regularly.
See "Cleaning and care" for more
information.
Catalytic enamelled surface
The back panel, roof liner and side
liners (if fitted) are coated with dark
grey catalytic enamel. Soiling from oil
and fat is burnt off these surfaces when
very high temperatures are used in the
oven.
See "Cleaning and care" for more
information.
Energy saving features
Time of day display
The clock display can be switched off
to save energy. When the oven is
switched off the display will not light up.
The time of day will, however, continue
to run unseen in the background (see
"Settings").
It will reappear in the display when the
oven is next used.

							Baking tray, universal tray and rack
The baking tray, universal tray and rack
are inserted into the oven between the
two rails of a shelf runner.
The trays and rack 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 trays and rack can then only be
taken out of the oven by raising them
upwards and then pulling them out.
If you are using a tray with the rack on
top, insert the tray between the rails of
a shelf runner and the rack will sit on
top of it.Anti-splash insert (depending on
model)
The anti-splash insert should be placed
in the universal tray when grilling or
roasting.
The juices from the food being cooked
collect under the anti-splash tray. This
prevents them from spitting and making
the oven dirty. The juices can then be
used for making gravy and sauces.
Handle (depending on model)
The handle makes it easier to take the
universal tray, baking tray and rack out
of the oven, or to put them into it. The
two prongs at the top go inside the tray
or above the rack, and the U-shaped
supports underneath.
