injury and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance,
please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first
time.
They contain important notes on installation, safety, use and
maintenance. Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.
Warning and Safety instructions
5
Correct application
~This steam oven is designed for domestic use and for use in
similar environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed &
breakfasts and other typical living quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels,
motels or bed & breakfasts.
~The steam oven is not suitable for outdoor use.
~This steam oven must only be used as described in these
instructions.
Any other usage is at the owner's risk and could be dangerous.
~This steam oven is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised
whilst using it or have been given instruction concerning its use by a
person responsible for their safety. They must also be aware of the
potential dangers caused by incorrect operation.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
Safety with children
~Young children must not be allowed to use this steam oven.
~Older children may only use the steam oven when its operation
has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it
safely, recognising the dangers of misuse.
~Cleaning may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.
~This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, keep
children well away and do not allow them to play with it or to use the
controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by it.
They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen.
~Risk of suffocation!
Children may be able to wrap themselves in packing material or pull
it over their heads with the risk of suffocation.
Keep children away from any packing material.
~Risk of scalding due to hot steam!
Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of
adults. Make sure children do not open the door while the steam
oven is in use. To safeguard against burning, keep children well
away from the appliance until it has cooled down sufficiently.
~Danger of injury! Children can hurt themselves on an open door.
Ensure that children do not swing on the door.
Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
~Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical
appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service
technician.
~A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check the appliance for any
visible damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged
appliance.
~The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified
electrician.
~Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure
that the rating on the data plate corresponds to the voltage and
frequency of the household supply. This data must correspond in
order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance.
Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
~Do not connect the steam oven to the mains electricity supply by
a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~This steam oven must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
~Tampering with electrical connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
Do not open the outer casing of the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions

~The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
~Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele
spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
~If the plug has been removed or the connection cable is not
supplied with a plug, the steam oven must be connected to the
mains supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
~If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a
suitably qualified electrician with a specialist connection cable of
type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated), available from Miele.
~During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
– the mains fuse is disconnected, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is
applicable), or
– it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from
the socket.
Do not pull on the mains connection cable but on the mains plug
to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity supply.
~In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage
caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the
warranty.
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
~Danger of burning!
The steam oven becomes hot when in use.
Exercise care when handling food and trays so as not to burn
yourself on heating elements, the walls of the steam oven, shelf
runners, trays and hot food itself.
Use oven gloves when placing food in the steam oven, turning or
removing it and when adjusting shelves etc. in a hot steam oven.
When putting cooking containers into the steam oven or taking them
out, take care not to spill the contents.
~Danger of burning!
Hot water may be located in the water container at the end of a
cooking programme. Take care not to tip the water container when
taking it out of the appliance.
~Do not use the steam oven to heat up or bottle food in sealed jars
and tins. Pressure will build up inside them and they can explode
causing damage to the appliance, as well as the risk of injury and
scalding.
~Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may
be injured by it.
~Plastic containers that cannot withstand high temperatures and
hot steam may melt and cause damage to the appliance.
Only use plastic containers that can withstand high temperatures
(up to 100 °C) and steam. Please follow the container
manufacturer's instructions.
~Food which is left in the steam oven can dry out and the escaping
moisture can lead to corrosion in the appliance. Do not leave
cooked food in the steam oven and do not use any cooking
containers which are susceptible to corrosion.
