Warning and Safety instructions
Oven operation
High temperatures can be produced by the oven.
Care should be taken to ensure that small children do not touch the ap- pliance when it is in use. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and control panel can become hot.
Use of
–when placing food in, turning, or re- moving items from the oven. The top heating element and oven racks can become very hot and the risk of burns exists.
Always open the door carefully.
–Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
Wait until the upper element is cool before lowering it for cleaning, in
order to avoid the risk of burns.
Do not use force to pull down the top heating element as this can
break it.
Always place the oven racks in their desired location while the
oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let the pot holder contact the hot heating elements.
Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not let cloth- ing or other flammable materials con-
tact the heating elements or interior sur- faces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
Do not let aluminum foil or the
meat probe contact hot heating ele- ments.
Do not push pots and pans on the oven floor as this could scratch the
surface.
Do not lean, sit, or place heavy items on the open oven door. The
door can support a maximum weight of 22 lbs (10 kg).
Cover any food left in the oven. This will prevent the food from
drying out and steam from condensing inside the oven. If condensation is ex- cessive, damage to the oven may occur.
Use only the Miele roast probe sup- plied with the oven. If a replace-
ment is necessary, it can be obtained from the Miele Parts Dept. or a Miele dealer.
