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.
