							Cleaning and care

Preparation
You will need a container of approx. 1
litre capacity.
A plastic tube (with suction cup) is
supplied with your oven so that you
do not have to hold the container with
the descaling agent underneath the
water intake pipe.
We recommend using the descaling
tablets supplied. They have been
specially developed for Miele for
optimum results.
Other descaling agents, which
contain other acids besides citric
acid and/or other undesirable
substances, such as chlorides for
example, could cause damage.
Moreover, the descaling result
required could not be guaranteed if
the descaling solution was not of the
appropriate concentration.
Tip: Miele descaling tablets are
available to order from the Miele
webshop, from Miele or from your Miele
dealer.
0004Fill the container with approx. 600 ml
of cold tap water and thoroughly
dissolve one descaling tablet in it.
Carrying out the descaling process
0004Select Maintenance  .
0004Select Descale .
If the Moisture plus  function and
the Automatic programmes that use
moisture are already locked, the
descaling process can be started
immediately by touching the OK
sensor.
0004Push the universal tray into the oven
on the top shelf level as far as it will
go to collect the descaling solution
after it has been used. Confirm the
message with OK. 
						

							Cleaning and care

0004Place the container with the
descaling solution on the floor of the
oven.
0004Attach the plastic tube to the end of
the water intake pipe. Place the other
end in the bottom of the descaling
solution container, and secure the
plastic tube to the container with the
suction cup.
0004Confirm with OK.
The intake process will begin. You can
hear the pump while this is happening.
The intake process can be interrupted
and restarted at any time by selecting
Stop or Start .
The amount of solution specified can be
more than the amount which is actually
taken in. Some of the solution may
therefore be left in the container at the
end of descaling.
A message will appear in the display
when the intake process is finished.
0004Confirm with OK.
The activation phase will begin. You
can follow the duration as it counts
down.
0004Leave the container with the tube
connected to the water intake pipe in
the oven. Top the container up with
approx. 300 ml of water, as the
system will need to draw in some
more liquid during the activation
phase.
The system will take in more liquid at
approximately 5 minute intervals. You
will hear the noise of the pump for a
moment or so.
The oven lighting and the cooling fan
will remain on during descaling.
At the end of the activation phase a
buzzer will sound, if the buzzer is
switched on (see "Settings - Volume -
Buzzer tones").  
						

							Cleaning and care
133
At the end of the activation phase the
steam injection system will need to be
cleaned to remove all traces of
descaling solution.
Cleaning is carried out by flushing
approx. 1 litre of fresh tap water
through the system. The water is
collected in the universal tray. This
process is repeated three times.
0004Take the universal tray out of the oven
and empty it. Place the tray back in
the oven again on the top shelf level.
0004Detach the plastic tube from the
container.
0004Rinse the container and fill with
approx. 1 litre of fresh tap water.
0004Place the container back in the oven,
insert the plastic tube, secure it to the
container and close the door.
0004Confirm with OK.
The intake process for the first rinse
starts.
Water will be flushed through the steam
injection system and will then collect in
the universal tray.
Messages will appear in the display
with advice about the second rinsing
process.
0004Take the universal tray out of the oven
and empty it. Place the tray back in
the oven again on the top shelf level.
0004Detach the plastic tube from the
container. Fill it with approx. 1 litre of
fresh tap water.
0004Place the container back in the oven,
insert the plastic tube, secure it to the
container and close the door.
0004Confirm with OK.
0004Do the same for the third rinsing
process.
Leave the universal tray (with the
water which has collected in it from
the third rinse) on the top oven shelf
whilst the evaporation process takes
place. 
						

							Cleaning and care
134
The Evaporate residual moisture
process will begin after the third rinsing
process.
0004Remove the container and tube from
the oven.
0004Close the door.
0004Confirm with OK.
Steam can cause scalding.
Do not open the door while the
residual water is being evaporated.
The oven heating will switch on and the
duration for the evaporation process will
count down in the display.
During the evaporation process, the
duration may be adjusted by the system
according to how much water is
currently present.
At the end of the evaporation process a
message will appear in the display with
advice on cleaning after running the
descaling programme.
0004Confirm with OK.
A buzzer will sound if the buzzer is
switched on (see "Settings – Buzzer
tones"). Prog. finished  will appear in the
display.
0004 Switch the oven off.
Danger of burning.
Allow the oven interior and
accessories to cool down before
cleaning them.
0004Remove the universal tray and empty
it. Clean the oven interior to remove
any condensation and descaling
agent residue.
Leave the oven door open until the
oven interior is completely dry.

unevenness is pronounced, check that the correct
temperature and shelf level have been selected.
The material or colour of the baking tin is not suitable
for the oven function.
0004 When using Conventional heat  use matt, dark
coloured pans. Light coloured, shiny pans will not
produce as desirable results.
The catalyser has been set at too high a level. This
can lead to an uneven browning result on more
delicate food such as sponge cakes.

or switch it off (see "Settings - Catalyser").

There is soiling in the
oven after the Pyrolytic
cleaning programme.The Pyrolytic cleaning programme burns off soiling in
the oven and leaves it as ash.
0004 Remove the ash using warm water with a little
washing-up liquid with a soft sponge or a clean,
damp microfibre cloth.
If coarse soiling remains, run the pyrolytic cleaning
programme again. Select a longer duration if
necessary.
The rack and other
accessories make a
noise when being
pushed into or pulled
out of the oven.The pyrolytic resistant surface of the side runners
creates friction when accessories are being pushed
into or pulled out of the oven.
0004 To reduce the friction, add a few drops of heat
resistant cooking oil to some kitchen paper and
use this to lubricate the side runners. Do this after
every pyrolytic cleaning programme.
