WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to excessive microwave energy: This appliance complies with current safety requirements.
  • Page 12 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Appropriate use  This appliance is intended for residential use only. Use only as described in these operating instructions.  This appliance is not intended for outdoor use.  The oven is intended for domestic use only: cooking, baking, roasting, broiling, canning, defrosting and reheating of food.
  • Page 13 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Safety with children  As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when the oven is used by children.  Do not leave children unattended: Children should not be alone or unsupervised in the area where the appliance is installed. Do not allow them to sit or stand on the appliance.
  • Page 14 Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.  Do not carry or lift the range by the oven door handle or the control panel! ...
  • Page 15 All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.  Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as intended by the manufacturer.
  • Page 16 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to the surrounding cabinets and flooring.
  • Page 17 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Correct use  Danger of burns! The Speed Oven becomes hot when in use. Depending on the mode selected, you could burn yourself on the heating elements, oven interior, cooked food or oven accessories. Wear pot holders when placing food in or removing food, or when making adjustments to items being cooked in the hot Speed Oven.
  • Page 18 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  To prevent burns, always place oven racks at their desired height while the oven is cool. If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do not let pot holders touch hot heating elements. ...
  • Page 19 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  WARNING NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
  • Page 20 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  For modes without microwave power: Plastic containers which are not suitable for use in an oven can melt at high temperatures and can even damage the oven or catch fire. Only use containers which are declared by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in an oven.
  • Page 21 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  It is recommended to cover all cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from condensing on the interior of the oven.  A build-up of heat can cause damage to the enamel on the floor of the oven.
  • Page 22 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  When boiling and in particular when re-heating liquids, milk, sauces etc., using microwave power without a boiling rod, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly throughout. This so- called 'boiling delay' can cause a sudden build up of bubbles when the container is removed from the oven or shaken.
  • Page 23 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  Do not use the oven to heat up heating pads filled with grains, gel, etc. These pads can ignite even after they have been removed from the Speed Oven.  This oven must only be used for cooking food.
