IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Oven use

,WARNING: Ovens produce high internal temperatures that can cause burns.

Prevent children from touching the appliance when in use.

Use heat-resistant oven mitts when placing items in the oven, turning

them, or removing them from the oven. The upper heating element and oven racks can become very hot and cause burns.

To prevent burns, always place oven racks in their desired height

while the oven is cool.

Always open the door carefully. Allow hot air or steam to escape

before placing or removing food.

To prevent burns, allow the heating element to cool before cleaning by

hand.

During the self cleaning function the oven will become very warm.

Keep children away from an oven in use.

Remove all accessories from the oven before starting the self

cleaning function. The high temperatures needed for this program will damage the accessories.

The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken

not to rub, damage or move the gasket. The door gasket should only be cleaned with a solution of warm water and soap.

Only clean parts listed in this manual.

Caution: Heating elements may be hot even if they are not glowing.

During and after use, do not let clothing or other flammable materials come in contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and control panel can become hot.

Do not block any vent openings.

Do not let metal objects (aluminum foil, pans) or the meat probe come

in contact with the heating element.

Do not slide pots or pans on the oven floor. This could scratch and

damage the surface.

Do not lean, sit, or place heavy items on the open oven door.

Only use the Miele roast probe supplied with the oven. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department if

you need to purchase a new probe.

To prevent damage, remove the roast probe from the oven when it

is not being used.

Do not heat unopened containers of food in the oven, as pressure

may build up and cause them to explode.

Never add water to food on a hot tray or pan or directly onto food in

a hot oven. The steam created could cause serious burns or scalds.
