Warning and Safety instructions
This appliance must only be
operated as a built-in appliance.
This is necessary to ensure that all
electrical components are shielded.
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.
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent person in
accordance with national and local
safety regulations. Repairs and other
work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for unauthorised work.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
– or the mains fuse is withdrawn
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Ensure that current is not supplied to
the appliance until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g
danger of overheating).

The oven is designed to be built
into a tall unit. If you wish to install
it in a base unit, the stainless steel rail
above the control panel must be
replaced by a sealing strip. The sealing
strip offers additional protection from
any liquids that might spill down from
the worktop, and can be purchased
from the Miele Spare Parts dept.
This equipment may only be used
in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
Use
Caution, danger of burning.
High temperatures are produced by
the oven.
Great care should be taken to
ensure that small children do not
touch the appliance when it is being
used. External parts of the oven such
as the door glass, handle vent and
control panel can become quite hot.
Children should not be left alone or
unattended in an area where an
oven is in use. They should never be
allowed to sit or stand on any part of
the oven or play with it.
Do not store items of interest to children
in cabinets above an oven. Children
climbing on the oven to reach these
items could be seriously injured.
