IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the
safety of the appliance.
In order for the oven to function correctly, it requires an adequate
supply of cool air. Ensure that the air flow is not impaired (e.g.
insulation in the cabinetry). Also be sure that the cool air supply is
not heated by other sources nearby.
If the oven is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the oven is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up
behind the closed door and cause damage to the oven, cabinetry
and flooring. Do not close the door until the oven has completely
cooled down.
Proper use
The oven becomes very hot while in use. Use caution to
ensure that you are not burned on the heating elements or interior
surfaces of the oven. Use pot holders when placing food in the
oven, adjusting the racks, etc. in a hot oven.
Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not
glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause
burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and
the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not
touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact
with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have
had sufficient time to cool.
Do not let food sit in the oven for more than one hour before or
after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
It is important that the heat is evenly distributed throughout the
food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning
the food.
