General notes

Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated.

Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its initial temperature, changes to recipe and the shape and size of cooking container.

Some foods may contain micro-organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking, therefore when cooking or re-heating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked through (at temperatures of over 70°C for more than 10 minutes). If in doubt select a longer cooking or reheating time.

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, and by observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.

Always remember that cooking times using microwave power are

usually considerably shorter than with traditional methods of food preparation (Fan plus, Auto roast, Grill, Fan Grill). Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning, or could even cause it to catch fire. Do not use the microwave function to dry breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, grain etc. Use the Fan plus function for this type of procedure, and do not leave the oven unattended.

Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or pads filled

with cherry kernels, wheat grain, lavender or gel, such as those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated even after they have been removed from the appliance.

Exercise caution when cooking or reheating food with a high sugar

content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If heated for too long the sugar may caramelise or ignite. Always ensure that this type of procedure is supervised.

Do not use full power to warm empty dishes. The lack of food or

incorrect loading could cause damage to the appliance.

Do not leave the oven unattended when cooking with oils and fats as these can be a fire hazard if allowed to

overheat.

If smoke occurs in the oven, to avoid fuelling any flame do not

open the oven door. Switch the appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF selector, switch off at the mains socket and remove the plug from the socket. Do not open the oven door until the smoke has dispersed.

Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with this appliance.

If a replacement is necessary it can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele dealer.
