  • Page 13 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 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.
  • Page 14 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  Open the door carefully to allow hot air or steam to escape before placing or removing food.  To prevent burns, allow the heating elements to cool before cleaning by hand.  Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may trip over it or be injured by it.
  • Page 15 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. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

  • Page 18 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  Hot pans on the display can cause damage to the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the area around the display.  The cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of beveled cooktops) may become hot due to the following factors: operating time, high output settings, large cookware, and number of burners in operation.
  • Page 19 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  If the handles of a pot or pan extend across an adjacent burner, this can cause burns, the ignition of flammable materials and the spilling of food due to inadvertent contact with the cookware. Turn the pot or pan so that the handles point toward the inside and do not extend across an adjacent burner.
  • Page 20 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Accessories  Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will become void.  The high temperatures used during self-cleaning will damage accessories that are not designed for cleaning in the Self Clean program.
