IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety

￿The steam oven should be installed at a safe height for users to safely access all cooking levels and containers. Otherwise spills could cause burns or scalding and children may be put at risk by the hot appliance door.

￿Protect your hands with oven mitts or potholders when using the appliance. Use only dry, heat resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces can result in steam burns.

￿When handling cooking containers take care not to let the contents spill. Danger of burns.

￿The steam oven gets very hot when in use and remains hot for some time once turned off. Use caution.

￿To avoid injuries allow the steam oven to cool before cleaning and putting on or taking off parts. Unplug the steam oven from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning.

￿Do not heat unopened food

containers. Pressure can build up causing an explosion that will damage the cooking compartment. There is also a danger of personal injury and scalding.

￿Do not store items on the appliance when not in use. Items could melt or catch fire from residual heat or if the appliance is turned on inadvertently.

￿Containers must be heat resistant up to 212°F (100°C). Otherwise they may melt at high temperatures in the oven.

￿Do not use items in the steam oven which may rust. Danger of corrosion.

￿The appliance is programmed so that after each use residual water will remain in the steam generator. If there is no residual water there is a fault. Contact the Miele Service Department.

￿Do not submerge the plug, cord or steam generator (water tank) into water or attempt to wash the steam generator in the dishwasher. Danger of electric shock!

￿Empty the steam generator after every use for hygienic reasons and to avoid condensate water in the appliance.

￿Use caution not to tilt the steam generator when inserting and removing it. Danger of burns.

￿Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with the appliance. The insulation of the cable could become damaged. Danger of electric shock!
