Gentle bake
Gentle bake is suitable for small
amounts e.g. of frozen pizza, bake-off
rolls, cookies and for meat dishes and
roasts. The optimum use of heat
enables savings of up to 30 % energy
to be made compared to cooking with a
standard oven function with
comparably good cooking results.
The temperature can be set between
100 and 250 °C.
This function is not suitable for larger
amounts of food such as sponge cakes
and fresh fruit cake where the cake mix
needs to be thoroughly baked
throughout as no energy savings would
be made.
0004Select Oven functions  .
0004Select Gentle bake  and alter the
recommended temperature if
necessary.
0004 Follow the instructions in the display.
For optimum results keep the door
shut whilst cooking.

Frozen food/Ready meals
Tips
Cakes, pizza, baguettes
–Large frozen items such as cakes,
pizzas or baguettes cover an
extensive area of the baking tray or
universal tray. 
The temperature difference if large
frozen items are cooked in these trays
can cause the tray to distort in such a
way that it cannot be removed from
the oven when it is hot. Further use
will make the distortion worse. Place
this type of food on baking
parchment on the rack to prevent the
risk of this happening.
–Use the lowest temperature
recommended on the manufacturer's
packaging.
Oven chips, croquettes or similar
items
–Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips can be cooked on the
baking tray or universal tray. 
Place baking parchment on the tray
so that they cook gently.
–Use the lowest temperature
recommended on the manufacturer's
packaging.
–Turn several times during cooking.
Method
Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good
health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc.
until they are golden. Do not
overcook them.
0004Select the function and temperature
recommended on the manufacturer's
packaging.
0004Pre-heat the oven.
0004Place the food in the pre-heated oven
on the shelf level recommended on
the packaging.
0004Check the food at the end of the
shortest duration recommended on
the packaging.
Tip: This oven offers Automatic
programmes for some Frozen food/
Ready meals (see "Automatic
programmes"). 
						

							Cleaning and care
115
Danger of burning.
Make sure the oven heating
elements are switched off and that
the oven cavity is cool.
Danger of injury.
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the oven.
All surfaces can become discoloured
or damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. The front of the
oven, in particular, will be damaged
by oven cleaners.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Scratches on glass
surfaces could cause a breakage in
certain circumstances.
Remove any residual cleaning agent
immediately.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces, do not
use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, acids or chlorides
–cleaning agents containing descaling
agents on the oven front
–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
–solvent-based cleaning agents
–stainless steel cleaning agents
–dishwasher cleaner
–glass cleaning agents
–cleaning agents for ceramic hobs
–hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents
–melamine eraser blocks
–sharp metal scrapers
–wire wool
–spot cleaning
–oven cleaner
–stainless steel spiral pads
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove. If items are used frequently
without being cleaned, it may
become very difficult to clean them.
Soiling is best removed after each
use of the oven. 
						

							Cleaning and care
116
The accessories are not dishwasher-
safe, with the exception of the wireless
roast probe.
Tips
–Soiling caused by spilt juices and
cake mixtures is best removed whilst
the oven is still warm. Exercise
caution and make sure the oven is
not too hot - danger of burning.
–To make manual cleaning easier you
can dismantle the oven door, remove
the side runners and the FlexiClip
runners (if present) and lower the top
heating/grill element.
Normal soiling
The fibre glass seal around the front
of the oven should be handled
carefully. Do not rub and scour it. 
If possible you should avoid trying to
clean it.
0004It is best to remove normal soiling
immediately using a clean sponge
and a solution of hot water and
washing-up liquid or with a clean,
damp microfibre cloth.
0004After cleaning make sure all residual
cleaning agent is thoroughly removed
with clean water.
This is particularly important when
cleaning PerfectClean surfaces as
cleaning agent residues can impair
the non-stick properties.
0004After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Food probe
The food probe can be cleaned in the
dishwasher. 
						

							Cleaning and care
117
Stubborn soiling (excluding the
FlexiClip runners)
Spilt fruit and roasting juices may
cause lasting discolouration or matt
patches on enamelled surfaces. This
discolouration is permanent but will
not affect the efficiency of the finish.
Do not attempt to remove these
marks. Clean these following the
instructions given here.
0004Baked on deposits can be removed
with a glass scraper or with a non-
abrasive stainless steel spiral pad,
warm water and washing-up liquid.
0004Very stubborn soiling on PerfectClean
surfaces can be cleaned using Miele
Oven Cleaner. This cleaner must only
be applied to cold surfaces. Follow
the instructions on the packaging
Non-Miele oven cleaner must only be
used in a cold oven and for no longer
than a maximum of 10 minutes.
0004You can then also use the scouring
pad on the back of a washing-up
sponge to remove the soiling.
0004After cleaning, remove all oven
cleaning agent residues thoroughly
with clean water, and dry with a soft
cloth. 
						

							Cleaning and care
118
Pyrolytic cleaning  of the
oven interior
Instead of cleaning the oven manually
you can run the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme .
During pyrolytic cleaning the oven
interior is heated up to over 400 °C. Any
residual soiling is broken down and
reduced to ash by the high
temperatures.
This oven has three levels of pyrolytic
cleaning, each with a different duration.
Select:
–Level 1 for light soiling
–Level 2 for heavier soiling
–Level 3 for very heavy soiling
The oven door locks automatically as
soon as the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme starts. It cannot be opened
until after the programme has finished.
The timer can be used to delay the start
of pyrolytic cleaning, for instance to
make use of cheaper electricity tariffs.
At the end of pyrolytic cleaning any
residues such as ash from the pyrolytic
process can be easily wiped away.
Setting up for pyrolytic cleaning
The high temperatures used during
pyrolytic cleaning will damage
accessories that are not designed for
pyrolytic cleaning.
Please remove these accessories
from the oven interior before starting
pyrolytic cleaning. This also applies
to non-pyrolytic accessories
purchased separately to the oven.
The following accessories are suitable
for pyrolytic cleaning and can be left in
the oven:
–Side runners
–FlexiClip telescopic runners HFC 72
–Rack HBBR 72
0004Take all non-pyrolytic accessories out
of the oven.
0004Place the rack on the top shelf level.
Coarse soiling in the oven
compartment can cause an
accumulation of smoke which can
lead to the pyrolytic cleaning
programme switching off.
Burnt on residues can leave
discolouration or matt areas on
enamelled surfaces.
0004Before running the pyrolytic cleaning
programme, remove coarse soiling
from the oven compartment and
loosen any burnt on residues with a
scraper suitable for use on glass.

 Danger of burning.
Wait until the oven has cooled down
before removing residual soiling left
in the oven compartment from
pyrolytic cleaning.
0004Wipe any residues (e.g. ash) left
behind after the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme out of the oven
compartment and wipe any residues
off any pyrolytic accessories. The
amount of ash will vary depending on
how dirty the oven was.
Most soiling can be easily removed
using a clean, damp microfibre cloth,
or with hot water and a little washing-
up liquid on a clean sponge.
Depending on how dirty the oven was
there may be a visible layer of soiling
across the inner glass pane on the
door. This should be removed using
the reverse of a non-scouring
washing-up sponge or with a stainless
steel spiral pad and a little washing-up
liquid.
0004Extend and retract the FlexiClip
telescopic runners several times after
running the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme.
Please note:
– The fibre glass seal around the front
of the oven should be handled
carefully. Do not rub and scour it. If
possible you should avoid trying to
clean it.
–After pyrolytic cleaning the FlexiClip
telescopic runners may appear
discoloured or a lighter colour in
some places. This will not affect the
functioning of the runners in any way.
–Spilt fruit juices may cause lasting
discolouration to enamelled surfaces.
This discolouration is permanent but
will not affect the efficiency of the
enamel. Do not attempt to remove
these marks.
