Warning and Safety instructions
6
This steam oven complies with all applicable safety requirements.
Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and mater-
ial damage.
Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before us-
ing the steam oven. They contain important information on safety,
installation, use and maintenance. This prevents both personal in-
jury and damage to the steam oven.
In accordance with standard IEC/EN60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the
chapter on installing the steam oven as well as the safety instruc-
tions and warnings.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application
This steam oven is intended for use in domestic households and
similar working and residential environments.
This steam oven is not intended for outdoor use.
The steam oven is intended for domestic use only to steam-cook,
defrost and reheat food.
All other types of use are not permitted.
The steam oven can only be used by people with reduced phys-
ical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and know-
ledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how
to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the con-
sequences of incorrect operation.
Warning and Safety instructions
8
Safety with children
Activate the system lock to ensure that children cannot switch on
the steam oven inadvertently.
Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the steam
oven unless they are constantly supervised.
Children aged 8 and older may only use the steam oven without
supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner.
Children must be able to understand and recognise the possible
dangers caused by incorrect operation.
Children must not be allowed to clean the steam oven unsuper-
vised.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the steam oven and do
not let them play with it.
Risk of suffocation due to packaging material. Whilst playing, chil-
dren may become entangled in packaging material (such as plastic
wrapping) or pull it over their head, presenting the risk of suffocation.
Keep packaging material away from children.
Risk of injury caused by hot surfaces and steam. Children’s skin is
far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of adults. During
operation, steam will escape out of the ventilation outlet. The door
glass and control panel of the steam oven heats up.
Do not let children touch the steam oven when it is in operation.
Keep children well away from the steam oven until it has cooled
down and there is no danger of injury.
Risk of injury from the open door.
The oven door can support a maximum weight of 8kg. Children
could injure themselves on an open door.
Do not let children sit on the open door, lean against it or swing on it.

Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
Never use a damaged steam oven. It could be dangerous. Check
it for visible signs of damage before using it.
Reliable and safe operation of this steam oven can only be as-
sured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re-
quirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installa-
tion tested by a qualified electrician.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, ensure that
the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match
the mains electricity 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 adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance (fire hazard).
For safety reasons, this steam oven may only be used when it has
been built in. This is necessary to ensure that all electrical compon-
ents are shielded.
This steam oven must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
Never open the casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and mechanical parts is highly danger-
ous to the user and can cause operational faults.
Warning and Safety instructions

While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty is invalidated.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is
supplied without a plug, the appliance must be connected to the
electrical supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a
special connection cable (see “Electrical connection”).
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.
If the steam oven is installed behind a furniture front (e.g. a door),
do not close the furniture front while the steam oven is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind the furniture front when closed.
This can result in damage to the steam oven, the housing unit and
the floor. Leave the furniture door open until the steam oven has
cooled down completely.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by cock-
roaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
