Warning and safety instructions

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when original
Miele spare parts are used. Faulty components must only be
replaced by original spare parts.

If the oven is delivered without a mains connection cable, a
special cable must be installed by a suitably qualified and competent
person (see "Installation - Electrical connection").

If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a
special connection cable by a suitably qualified and competent person
(see "Installation - Electrical connection").

During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven
lighting is faulty, the oven must be completely disconnected from the
electricity supply (see "Problem solving guide"). To ensure this:
– Switch off the mains circuit breaker, or
– switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug. To do this,
pull the plug and not the mains connection cable.

The oven requires a sufficient supply of cool air for efficient
operation. Make sure that the supply of cool air is not hindered in
any way (e.g. by heat insulation strips fitted in the housing unit).
Furthermore, the required supply of cool air must not be excessively
heated by other heat sources (e.g. solid fuel stoves).

If the oven is built in behind a furniture front (e.g. a door), do not
close the furniture door while the oven is in use. Heat and moisture
can build up behind the closed furniture door. This can result in
damage to the oven, housing unit and floor. Leave the furniture door
open until the oven has cooled down completely.
Correct use

Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces. The oven gets hot during
operation. You could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven
compartment, accessories or food.
Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven or removing it, and
when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven.

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven
could catch fire. Do not use the oven to heat up the room.
