							Oven controls
In addition to operating the various
cooking programmes to bake, roast
and grill, the controls also offer the

–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
"F 55" will appear in the display. The
oven can be used again immediately
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
some of 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.
Door lock for pyrolytic operation
For safety reasons the door locks as
soon as the pyrolytic cleaning
programme starts. After the pyrolytic
programme has finished, the door will
remain locked until the temperature in
the oven has dropped below 280°C.

							Pyrolytic cleaning
The oven interior can be kept clean by
using the "Pyrolytic" function.
During the pyrolytic process the oven is
heated to over 400 °C. Any residual
soiling is broken down and reduced to
ash by the high temperatures.
See "Cleaning and care" for more
information.
PerfectClean treated surfaces
The following surfaces are all treated
with a special PerfectClean finish:
– Runners,
– Baking tray,
– Universal tray,
– Rack
PerfectClean 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.
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.
Moisture plus
This function injects moisture during the
cooking process, giving excellent
results when cooking various types of
food, such as bread or meat.
See the separate "User instructions"
booklet supplied in addition to the
Operating and installation instructions
for information on the Moisture plus
function and descaling the oven.

Accessories
The following accessories are supplied
with this oven.
These and other accessories are also
available to order from the Miele Spare
Parts Department, your Dealer or via
the internet at www.miele-shop.com.Baking tray, universal tray and rack
with non-tip notches
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 insert. 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.Descaling tablets, plastic tube with
clip
These are required for descaling the
appliance.
