IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using the appliance, follow basic safety precautions, including the following: Read all instructions before installation and use of the oven to prevent accidents and machine damage. This appliance complies with current safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can lead to personal injury and material damage. Read all instructions before installing or using the oven for the first time. Only use the appliance for its intended purpose.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Children Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an oven is in use. Never allow children to operate, sit or stand on any part of the oven. Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven. Children climbing on the oven to reach these items could be injured. Burn Hazard - Do not allow children to use the oven. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Reliable and safe operation of the oven can only be guaranteed if it is connected to the public power supply. Operating a damaged appliance can result in microwave leakage and present a hazard to the user. Do not use the appliance if: – the door is warped, – the door hinges are loose, – holes or cracks are visible in the housing, the door, the door seal or the oven interior walls.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The oven is not to be operated until it has been properly installed within cabinetry. Danger of electric shock! Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance. This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship). Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Caution: Heating elements may be hot even though they are not glowing. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. External parts of the oven such as the door glass, vents, and the control panel can become hot. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials come into contact with heating elements or interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Do not leave the oven door open unnecessarily as someone may trip over it or be injured by it. Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fat. They can ignite if overheated. Do not use the oven for frying. Do not use water on grease fires. Turn off the Speed Oven immediately and suffocate the flames by keeping the door closed. Never store flammable liquids and materials in, above or under an oven, or near cooking surfaces.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Please be aware that durations for using microwave power are often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting than when using modes without microwave power. Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning or could even cause it to catch fire. Be sure you keep to recommended broiling times when using the "Broil" mode. Do not use the "Microwave" mode for dehydrating items such as flowers, herbs, bread, or rolls.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other inflammable materials. Before using single-use containers, make sure they are suitable for use in microwave ovens (See "Containers suitable for microwave use - Plastics"). Do not reheat food in the oven in heat-retaining bags which are intended for use in normal ovens.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS A build-up of heat can cause damage to the coating on the floor of the oven. When using Convection Bake do not line the floor of the Speed Oven with anything, e.g. aluminum foil or oven liners. Universal trays and glass trays should not be placed directly on the oven floor. The door can support a maximum weight of 33 lbs (15 kg). Do not sit on or lean against an open door, and do not place heavy objects on it.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The boiling wand ensures that the liquid heats up evenly with bubbles forming at the right time. When reheating liquids, always place the boiling wand supplied into the cup or glass. When boiling and in particular when reheating liquids, milk, sauces etc, using microwave power without the boiling wand, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil evenly throughout.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage, potatoes and eggplant, should be pierced or cut in several places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting. To check food temperature, first interrupt the cooking process. Only use a thermometer specifically approved for food use to measure the temperature of the food.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surfaces of the Speed Oven, remove any splashes on the interior walls of the oven from food or liquids containing salt. Do not use oven cleaners. Commercial oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind should not be used in or around any part of the oven. Accessories Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will become void.

Guide to the modes The oven has a wide range of modes for preparing a variety of foods. Due to country-specific preferences for preparation of food, default temperatures and temperature ranges in °F and °C do not correspond. The temperature values have been defined as given in the chart. Solo Modes Mode Convection Bake Default Temperature temperature range 350 °F (160 °C) 75–475 °F (30–250 °C) Use this mode for baking and roasting on several levels at the same time.
Guide to the modes Mode Intensive This mode gently circulates heated air from the lower heating element using the fan to create a brick oven environment. Ideal for baking pizza, focaccia, pies and tarts that require a crisp base and moist toppings. Surround Default Temperature temperature range 350 °F (170 °C) 125–450 °F (50–220 °C) 350 °F (180 °C) 75–475 °F (30–250 °C) This premium baking mode uses heat from the upper and lower elements to create perfect results on all baking recipes.
Guide to the modes Combination Modes During Combination modes the heating element and the magnetron turn on and off alternating one after the other. The heating element browns the food and the magnetron helps it cook quickly. The maximum power level is 3. Mode Combi Bake For rapid heating and cooking of food, while browning at the same time. Microwaves will speed up your cooking process without sacrificing the quality of food. When baking do not set the microwave power level higher than 2.
Guide to the modes Mode Micro Broil Default temperature Level 3 Temperature range Levels 1–3 For broiling flat meats, e.g. steak, chops, kebabs, etc. The entire Browning / Broiling element will glow red to produce the required infrared heat. The Microwaves will speed up your cooking process without sacrificing the quality of food. The maximum settable microwave power level is 3.
Microwave power How it works Advantages The Speed Oven contains a highfrequency tube called a magnetron. It converts electrical energy into microwaves. The microwaves are then distributed evenly throughout the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides. – Food can generally be cooked with little liquid or oil. In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the cooking container being used.
Selecting cookware Non-microwave safe dishes can suffer damage or cause damage to the oven when using the the Microwave (Solo) and Combination modes with Microwave. Risk of Fire! Microwaves are reflected by metal. The material and shape of containers used affect cooking results and times. Circular and oval containers work best. The food will heat more evenly than in a square container. Containers suitable for microwave use Glassware They pass through glass, porcelain, plastic and cardboard.
Selecting cookware Plastics Plastic containers and plastic disposable containers may only be used with Microwave (Solo) if they have been declared as suitable for microwave use by the manufacturer. To protect the environment, it is best to avoid using single-use containers. Do not leave the Speed Oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other flammable materials. Plastic cookware must be heatresistant up to at least 230°F (110°C).
Selecting cookware Unsuitable containers for microwave use Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with microwave modes. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode. Metal Metal reflects microwaves and obstructs the cooking process. Do not use metal containers, aluminum, foil, metal cutlery and china with metallic decoration such as gold rims or cobalt blue with Microwave combination modes.
Selecting cookware – Aluminum foil pieces For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of aluminum foil may be used to mask thin pieces for the last few minutes of the program. Make sure that the aluminum foil is at least 3/4" (2 cm) from the oven walls at all times. It must not touch the walls. – Metal meat skewers or clamps These should only be used if they are very small in comparison to the size of the cut of meat.
Selecting cookware Placing the dish in the Speed Oven Lid The lid offers the following advantages: – Prevents too much steam escaping, especially when cooking foods which need longer to cook, such as potatoes. – Speeds up the cooking process. – Prevents food from drying out. – Helps keep the oven interior clean. Insert the glass tray on shelf level 1. The dish containing the food should always be placed in the middle of the glass tray.
Selecting cookware The cover can only withstand temperatures up to 230°F (110°C). Higher temperatures (e.g. those used for Broil and Convection Bake) can cause the plastic to distort and fuse with the food. The cover should only be used with Microwave (Solo) . The cover should not form a seal with the container. If the cover is used with a container which only has a narrow diameter, there might not be enough room for condensation to escape through the holes in the top.
Energy saving tips – Remove any accessories from the oven that you do not require for cooking. – The default setting for the Time of Day display Time - Show - Off will consume the least amount of energy. – If possible, do not open the door during a program.
