Correct application
~The steam oven is intended for use in domestic households and
similar working and residential environments.
~The appliance is not intended for outdoor use.
~It is intended for domestic use only as described in these
operating instructions. Any other usage is not supported by the
manufacturer and could be dangerous.
~The appliance can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been
shown how to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the
consequences of incorrect operation.
Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children
~Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the
appliance unless they are constantly supervised.
~Children 8 years and older may only use the oven unsupervised if
they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and
understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
~Children must not be allowed to clean the appliance
unsupervised.
~Please supervise children in the vicinity of the appliance and do
not let them play with it.
~Danger of suffocation.
Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of
babies and children.
Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or
pull it over their head and suffocate.
~Danger of burning.
Children's skin is far more sensitive to high temperatures than that of
adults. Make sure that children do not attempt to open the door
when the appliance is in operation. Keep children well away from
the appliance until it has cooled down and there is no danger of
burning.
~Danger of injury.
The oven door can support a maximum weight of 8 kg. Do not let
children sit on the 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
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
~A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible
signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
~The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety
requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
connection inspected by an 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 appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard
and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
~For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
~This appliance 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
dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
~While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
guarantee is invalidated.

~Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must
only be replaced by genuine original Miele spare parts.
~If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the

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.
~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
cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
~The steam oven becomes hot when in use.
You could burn yourself on the oven interior, cooked food, oven
accessories or hot steam.
Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven or removing it and
when adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot oven. Take care when
putting cooking containers into the oven or removing them not to
spill the contents.
~Danger of burning.
There will be some residual hot water in the steam generator at the
end of a cooking process. This will be pumped back into the water
container. Take care not to spill the contents when taking the water
container out of the appliance.
~Do not bottle or heat up food in closed tins in the oven, as
pressure will build up in the tin causing it to explode.
~You could injure yourself on the open oven door or trip over it.
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily.
~Plastic dishes which are not heat- and steam resistant melt at
high temperatures and can damage the appliance.
Use temperature- (to 100°C) and steam-resistant plastic dishes.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
~Food which is left in the oven to be kept hot can dry out and the
moisture released can lead to corrosion damage in the appliance.
Do not use the oven for keeping food warm and do not use utensils
in the appliance which could corrode.
~The door can support a maximum weight of 8 kg.
Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy
objects on it. Also make sure that nothing can get trapped between
the door and the oven cavity. The oven could get damaged.
