Door lock
Door contact switch
Once a cooking process using the mi-
crowave has begun, the door will re-
main locked until the end of the
programme.
You can cancel the door lock by press-
ing the Stop/C touch control. The
programme will then be interrupted.
If the door is opened during a
programme using a traditional oven
function (with or without microwave), a
contact switch for the door switches the
fan and heating element off automati-
cally. The programme will continue to
run again as soon as the door is shut. If
‘Stop/C’ was pressed before opening
the door, then ‘Start’ must be pressed
for the programme to continue.
Programming lock
The programming lock prevents func-
tions being entered unintentionally.

Safety cut-out
With the Fan Heat (hot air) and Auto
Roast systems the heating shuts off au-
tomatically with the door closed when
the current ambient temperature is suffi-
cient to finish cooking the food. When-
ever heat is lost, e.g. if the door is
opened, the heating will switch on
again automatically.
A process using a traditional oven func-
tion can be started without program-
ming in a time. To prevent over-use and
the consequent danger of fire, the ap-
pliance switches off automatically after
a certain length of time. This can be be-
tween 1 hour and 10 hours depending
on the function and temperature cho-
sen.
"Night time dimming" option
You can programme the appliance so
that the brightness of the display is
dimmed between the hours of 10 pm
and 6 am. (22.00 to 6.00 hours).
If the microwave is switched off in be-
tween using two microwave cooking
processes, there will be a delay of
about 30 seconds before the new set-
ting is accepted. Therefore wait a short
while before starting the second pro-
cess.
Optional oven interior lighting
You can turn off the oven interior light-
ing if you do not want it to remain on
during the entire cooking process. It will
then only light up for approx. 10 sec-
onds after you have pressed the Enter
touch control.

vant legal safety requirements. Im-
proper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both per-
sonal injury and material damage.
Do not use the microwave function
of the appliance if
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time, read
the operating instructions carefully.
They contain important notes on in-
stallation, safety, operation and care
of the appliance. This way you will
avoid the risk of accidents and dam-
age to the appliance.
- the door is warped.
- the door hinges are loose.
- holes or cracks are visible in the cas-
ing, the door, the door seal or the oven
interior walls. Operating the appliance
with this type of damage will result in
microwave leakage, and present a haz-
ard to the user.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any fu-
ture user.
Never open the casing of the appli-
ance. Tampering with electrical
connections or components and me-
chanical parts is highly dangerous to
the user and can cause operational
faults or electric shock.
Correct usage
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only: to cook food, and
in particular to defrost, reheat, cook,
bake, roast and to grill. Any other us-
age is at the owner’s risk and could be
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for damage
caused by improper use of the appli-
ance.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
the rating on the data plate corre-
sponds to the voltage and frequency of
the household supply. It is essential that
these data correspond as otherwise
damage will occur to the machine. If in
doubt consult a suitably qualified elec-
trician.
Do not let children access the appli-
ance or its controls. Supervise its use
by the elderly or infirm.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the ap-
pliance, (for example danger of over-
heating).
If allowing older children to use the ap-
pliance without supervision please en-
sure that they are aware of how a mi-
crowave oven works and understand
the dangers of improper use.

Warning and Safety instructions
The electrical safety of this appli-
ance can only be guaranteed when
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
continuity is complete between the ap-
pliance and an effective earthing sys-
tem, which complies with local and na-
tional regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
tested by a qualified electrician. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsi-
ble for the consequences of an inade-
quate earthing system, such as an
electric shock.
– it is switched off at the wall socket,
and the plug removed (where appli-
cable). Do not pull on the cable, only
on the plug.
– 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 while maintenance or re-
pair work is being carried out.
This appliance must only be oper-
ated as a built-in appliance. This is
necessary to ensure that all electrical
components are shielded.
Use
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by a suitably
General notes
qualified and competent service techni-
cian approved by Miele in accordance
with local and national safety regula-
tions. Repairs and other work by un-
qualified persons could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for unauthorised work.
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking
time, including the size and amount of
food, its initial temperature, changes to
recipe and the shape and size of cook-
ing container. Some foods may contain
micro organisms which are only de-
stroyed by thorough cooking, therefore
when cooking or reheating foods, e.g.
poultry, it is particularly important that
food is fully cooked through (at over
70°C, for a minimum of 10 minutes). If
in doubt select a longer cooking or re-
heating time.
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess-
ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.
It is important that the heat is al-
lowed to spread evenly throughout
the food being cooked.
This can be achieved by stirring and/or
turning the food, and by observing a
sufficiently long standing time, which
should be added to the time needed for
cooking, reheating or defrosting.

Always remember that cooking
times in a microwave oven are usu-
ally considerably shorter than with tradi- build up in the tin and it can explode.
Do not heat up unopened tins of
food in the oven as pressure will
tional methods of food preparation. Ex-
cessively long cooking times can lead
to food drying out and eventually burn-
ing, or could even cause it to catch fire.
This could result in injury or damage.
Food left in the oven to take advan-
tage of residual heat should always
be covered to avoid it drying out, and
to avoid a possible build-up of conden-
sation which could adversely affect the
oven interior.
There is also a danger of fire if
breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, grains
etc., are dried in the microwave oven.
Always ensure that this type of proce-
dure is supervised.
Try to avoid the interior walls being
splashed with food or liquids con-
taining salt. If it does happen wipe
these away thoroughly, to avoid corro-
sion on the stainless steel surface.
Exercise caution when cooking or
reheating food with a high sugar
content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If
heated for too long the sugar may
caramelise or ignite.
Wear oven gloves when removing
the glass tray from the oven. If the
glass tray has a heavy load, pull it only
slightly towards you, and then hold
firmly at the sides as you take it out.
Do not use full power if you warm
empty dishes or dry herbs. The
lack or minimum amount of food could
cause damage to the appliance.
The glass dish and the rack take a
maximum load of 8 kg. Do not ex-
ceed this or the accessories may be
damaged.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when cooking with oils and fats as
these can be a fire hazard if allowed to
overheat.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven
door. This could damage the appli-
ance. Take care in the region of the
hinges. An oven door can support a
maximum load of 8 kg.
If smoke occurs in the oven, to
avoid fuelling any flame do not
open the oven door. Turn the function
selector to "0", or switch off at the mains
and remove the plug from the socket.
Do not open the oven door until the
smoke has dispersed.
When it is hot do not place the
glass tray on a cold surface, such
as a tile or granite worktop. It could
break. Place it on a pot rest or a wire
rack.
Never heat undiluted alcohol in the
microwave oven as this can easily
ignite.

roundings in a clean condition at all
When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc.,
in the oven without the boiling rod, the
boiling point of the liquid may be
reached without the production of typi-
cal bubbles. The liquid does not boil
evenly throughout. This so-called ‘boil-
ing delay’ can cause a sudden build up
of bubbles, when the container is re-
moved from the oven or shaken. This
can lead to the liquid boiling over sud-
times.
Any damage which might be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the appliance guarantee.

lery made from or containing metal,
aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware,
temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden
utensils or cutlery, metal clips or wire
ties. Such items could be damaged, or
cause a fire hazard.
The rack supplied with the appliance is
designed to be compatible with micro-
waves, and can therefore be used with
or without the microwave function.
Ovenproof earthenware can retain
a considerable amount of moisture.
Earthenware and porcelain containers
with hollow handles and lid knobs must
only be used in this oven if they have
vent holes, which allow the moisture to
escape. Without vent holes there can
be a pressure build-up, causing the
container to crack or shatter, with the
danger of injury.
The rack gets hot when operating
either the microwave function or
the browning element, or both. There is
a danger of burning.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells in the microwave oven in a
specially designed egg-boiling device.
Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not
be reheated in the microwave oven as
this may lead to the eggs bursting,
even once they have been removed
from the oven.
Traditional oven functions:
Fan Heat, Auto Roast, Grill, Fan Grill
Caution - Danger of burning
When the oven is being used as a
traditional oven it can get very hot.
Great care should be taken to en-
sure that small children do not
touch the oven when it is being used.
External parts of the oven such as door
glass, handle vents and the facia panel
can become quite hot.
Eggs can be cooked without their
shells in the microwave oven only if
the yolk membrane has been punc-
tured several times first. The pressure
would otherwise cause the egg yolk to
explode.

Microwave h
Microwaves can penetrate porcelain,
glass, cardboard and plastics but not
metal. Do not, therefore, use utensils
made of metal, or which contain metal,
for example in the form of gold or silver
trim. The metal reflects the microwaves
and this could lead to the creation of
sparks. The microwaves cannot be ab-
sorbed.
Microwave cooking offers the benefits
of speed, convenience and nutritional
advantages when food does not require
browning or crisping.
Functional description
All food contains moisture molecules
which, when subjected to microwave
energy, start to oscillate 2.5 thousand
million times a second. The friction
caused by this vibration creates heat,
which first starts developing around the
outside of the food and then slowly
penetrates towards the centre. The
moisture, fat and sugar content of food
will affect the speed at which it is
cooked.
This oven is equipped with two
As heat is produced directly in the
magnetrons a, which convert electrical food,
energy into microwaves.
– food can generally be cooked with-
There are two stirrer fans b, one above
the oven ceiling and the other under the
oven floor. The fans distribute the mi-
crowaves evenly throughout the oven
interior, rebounding them off the walls
so that they reach and enter the food
from all sides.
out adding much liquid or cooking oil
– cooking, reheating and defrosting in
a microwave oven is quicker than us-
ing traditional oven methods
– nutrients, such as vitamins and min-
erals, are generally retained
– colour, texture and taste of food are
not impaired
An advantage of this system is that
food can be cooked on two levels si-
multaneously, (e.g. on the oven floor
and the second runner level).
– the surface temperature stays cool
enough to avoid browning.
In order for microwaves to reach the
food, they must be able to penetrate
the cooking utensil being used.

Traditional oven functions
Fan Heat D
Auto Roast E
After the selected temperature is en-
tered, the oven heats initially to a pre-
set high temperature which seals the
meat to keep it succulent and tasty.
The oven temperature is then automati-
cally returned to the temperature set-
ting selected.
Auto Roast E
Grill n
Fan Grill N
These cook and brown the food.
When roasting, you are strongly rec-
ommended to cover the food. Not
only does this help retain all the
juices, but will also make cleaning
the oven easier afterwards.
Fan Heat D
The fan circulates heat constantly
around the oven, giving a very even
temperature throughout.
It sucks in the air, heats it over a ring el-
ement and blows it back through the
carefully spaced openings in the back
panel.
Grill n
As the grill element needs to radiate a
high heat in order to cook the food, it
will take several minutes after being
switched on for the element to glow red
hot and so produce sufficient infra-red
heat for grilling. Pre-heat the grill with
the oven door closed for approx. 5 min-
utes before starting to cook.
As the heat is quickly transferred to the
food, it is not usually necessary to pre-
heat the oven, except when roasting
sirloin or fillet or for foods such as puff
pastry and yeast mixtures which require
instant heat.
With Fan Heat food can be baked or
roasted on the floor and the second
level at the same time.
Fan Grill N
The hot air from the grill is distributed
by the fan in the rear of the oven evenly
over all the food being grilled. This en-
ables a lower temperature to be se-
lected than for normal oven grilling.

The combination programmes enable
the grill, fan and Auto roast settings to
be used in conjunction the the micro-

They are dependent on weight, i.e. after
selecting the appropriate food group,
you then enter the weight of the food

for baking, and not higher than 450 W
for cooking, roasting and grilling.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Microwaves
Material and shape
The material and shape of containers
used affect cooking results and times.
Heat distribution is more even in round
and oval shaped dishes than in rectan-
gular containers, providing better re-
sults.
Metal
Metal containers, aluminium foil and
metal cutlery, or china with metallic
decoration such as gold rims or co-
balt blue must not be used in micro-
wave mode.
The metal reflects the microwaves, hin-
dering the cooking process.
– are reflected by metal,
Exceptions:
If recommended by the producer, pre-
cooked meals packed in aluminium foil
containers can be defrosted and re-
heated in the microwave oven. Impor-
tant: remove the lid first. However, as
food is only heated from the top, it is
better to remove the food from the alu-
minium foil container and transfer it to a
dish suitable for a microwave oven. The
heat distribution will be more even. If
sparks and arcing occur when using a
metal container, stop and transfer the
food to a microwave safe container.
– pass through glass, chinaware, plas-
tic and card,
For even defrosting and to avoid over-
cooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat,
poultry or fish, small pieces of alu-
minium foil may be used to mask wing-
tips or other thin parts for the last few
minutes of the process.
– and are absorbed by food.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Decorated earthenware is only suitable
if the decoration is beneath an all-over
glaze.
Make sure that the aluminium foil is
at least 2 cm from the oven walls at
all times. It must not touch the walls.
Earthenware can get very hot, and
may crack.
Metal meat skewers or clamps should
only be used if they are very small in
comparison to the size of the cut of
meat.
Porcelain (chinaware)
Porcelain is suitable, however contain-
ers with hollow handles and lid knobs
must only be used in this oven if they
have vent holes, which allow the mois-
ture to escape. Without vent holes there
can be a pressure build-up, causing
the container to crack or shatter, with
the danger of injury.
The rack supplied with the appliance is
suitable for use in a microwave oven.
Do not place the rack on the oven floor.
The rack can get hot.
Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass
are ideal for use in the microwave oven.
Do not use porcelain with gold or silver
edging or items with hollow knobs or
handles as insufficient ventilation may
cause pressure.
Crystal glass contains lead which could
cause the glass to crack. Glass dishes
with a milled rim are subject to the
same risk. Both are unsuitable.
Glazes and colours
Some glazes and colours contain
metal.
Earthenware
Although some ovenproof earthenware
can be used in a microwave oven it
may contain a considerable amount of
moisture, causing it to become hot dur-
ing use. It is normally advisable to
avoid using it in a microwave oven.
This makes them unsuitable for use in a
microwave oven.
Plastics
Plastic containers must only be used for
Microwave mode alone and not in con-
ventional oven mode.
Plastics must be heat-resistant to a min-
imum of 180 °C. Otherwise the plastic
may melt and fuse with the food.
Earthenware containers with hollow
handles and lid knobs must only be
used in this oven if they have vent
holes, which allow the moisture to es-
cape. Without vent holes there can be a
pressure build-up, causing the con-
tainer to crack or shatter, with the dan-
ger of injury.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Special plastic utensils, designed for
use in microwave ovens are available
from good retail outlets. Melamine ware
is not suitable as it absorbs energy and
heats up. When purchasing
plasticware, make sure that it is suitable
for use in a microwave oven.
Disposable containers
Only those plastic disposable contain-
ers which are specified by the manu-
facturer as suitable for use in a micro-
wave oven may be used.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plas-
tic paper or other inflammable mate-
rial.
Disposable containers, such as trays
made from polystyrene, can only be
used for very short timed warming and
reheating of food.
Plastic boiling bags can be used for
cooking and reheating. To reduce the
risk of the bag bursting, they should be
pierced first so that steam can escape
and prevent a build-up of pressure.
Disposable containers are not always
recyclable or degradable.
Testing dishes for their suitability
If in doubt as to whether glass, earthen-
ware or porcelain plates or dishes are
suitable for use in a microwave oven, a
simple test can be performed:
Roasting bags and -tubes
Roasting tubes should be about 40 cm
longer and roasting bags about 20 cm
longer than the food being roasted, and
carefully tied with string. Turn the ends
over and secure them. Holes should be
made according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
^ Place the item you wish to test in the
centre of the oven, fill a suitable glass
with water and also place this in the
oven.
^ Shut the door.
^ Select Microwave h with the function
selector.
Do not use metal clips or wire ties,
even if bound by paper. There is a
danger that they will ignite when
heated.
Wood
^ Select the highest microwave power
setting (1200 W) with the "+" control.
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
Moisture contained in the wood evapo-
rates when exposed to microwave en-
ergy, causing the wood to dry and
crack.

especially when cooking food which
needs longer to cook, such as pota-
toes,
^ Enter a time of 30 seconds with the
"+" control.

process,
– prevents food from drying out,
– prevents any loss of aroma.
^ Press the Start control.
If a crackling noise is heard accom-
panied by sparks during the test,
switch off the appliance immediately.
Turn the function selector to the "0"
position.
Always use lids or covers made of mi-
crowave-safe glass or plastic, or use a
clingfilm recommended for use in a mi-
crowave oven, (pierce as instructed by
the manufacturer). Unsuitable clingfilm
can melt into the food.
Any crockery which causes this re-
action, is unsuitable for use in the
microwave oven.
The water in the glass should be
warm, but the dish cool. If the dish is
very hot and the water is cold, it
would be unwise to use the dish.

Reheating
Automatic reheating P
For made-up milk follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions.
This programme is suitable for reheat-
ing meat, poultry, fish, soup, plated
meals, casseroles and vegetables.
After reheating stir the food or shake
the container and check that the tem-
perature does not pose any danger.
Double check after it has been left to
stand.
See "Automatic programmes" for details
on using this programme.
Microwave h
Always use a lid or cover for reheating
food, except when a drier finish is
needed, e.g. breaded poultry / meat.
Microwave mode is suitable for reheat-
ing foods which are unsuitable for the
automatic programme.
When reheating liquids place the boil-
ing rod supplied into the cup or glass.
Select the following microwave power
settings to reheat food

crowave oven, even without the shell.

1200 W,
850 W or 600 W
– * food for babies 450 W.
Do not reheat food in the oven in heat-
retaining bags intended for normal ov-
ens. These usually contain a thin layer
of aluminium foil which reflects micro-
waves. This reflected energy can cause
the outer paper covering to become so
hot that it ignites.
* Baby food
We do not recommend heating or re-
heating foods or drinks for babies or
young children in the microwave
oven. Any decision to do this is the
responsibility of the user, and should
only be done with the utmost care.
The time required depends largely on
the nature of the food, its initial temper-
ature and the amount to be cooked.
Food taken straight from the refrigerator
takes longer to reheat than food stored
at room temperature.
Always remove the lids from jars, es-
pecially jars of baby food. Remove
the rubber teat and seal top before
warming baby bottles.
Always ensure that the food is ade-
quately heated.
Pasteurised or sterilised cooked
food should be gently heated at
450 watts, and tasted so that it is not
too hot for a baby’s palate before
serving. Other food or drink when re-
heated should be heated to a high
temperature and allowed to cool to a
suitable heat for consumption.
If in any doubt that a sufficiently high
temperature has been reached, con-
tinue reheating for a little longer.

towards the middle, as food heats more
quickly from the outside. With the auto-
matic programme an audible tone
sounds as a reminder.
Although heat is not normally produced
in the container itself by the micro-
waves, (apart from stoneware and simi-
lar dishes), heat transfer from the food
to the container may be considerable,
making the container itself hot.
Heating on two levels
Because of the way that microwaves
are distributed from top and bottom it is
possible to reheat food on two levels at
the same time.
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at
room temperature once a programme
has ended to allow heat to be distrib-
uted evenly.
After reheating food, especially food for
babies and small children, stir the food
or shake the container and check that
the temperature does not pose any
danger. Double check after it has been
left to stand.
For more detailed information on re-
heating consult a good microwave
or microwave combi-oven cookbook.
^ Place dishes on the oven floor and on
the glass tray. Insert the glass tray on
the upper level supports.
You can arrange
– three plates (Ø 20 cm) in a triangle,
two plates (Ø 22 cm) side by side, or
two plates (Ø 24.5 cm) diagonally on
the oven floor,

from specialist shops. Similarly, hard-
boiled eggs should not be reheated in
the microwave oven as this may lead to
the eggs bursting, even once they have
been removed from the oven.
See "Automatic programmes" for details
on using this programme.
Microwave h
Eggs can be cooked without their shells
in the microwave oven only if the yolk
membrane has been punctured several
times first. The pressure could other-
wise cause the egg yolk to explode.
This method is suitable for cooking noo-
dles, pasta, rice and semolina pudding
etc.
First select 850 W and then turn down
to 450 W to continue cooking, or 150 W
for simmering.
Place the food in a microwave-safe dish
and cover it.
Place the dish on the oven floor.
Vegetable cooking times depend on the
texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegeta-
bles contain more water than vegeta-
bles which have been stored and usu-
ally cook more quickly. Add a little wa-
ter to vegetables which have been kept
stored. Stir and turn food at least once
during cooking.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as
tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes
and aubergines, should be pierced or
cut in several places to allow steam to
escape and prevent the food from
bursting.

ware, pans with heat resistant handles.
Place the cooking container on the
glass tray and slide into the lowest run-
ner level.
Cover foods such as potatoes or vege-
tables which are to be simmered or
poached, to avoid them drying out.
Only use heat-resistant, microwave-
safe crockery. No metal.
Where a crisp finish is required e.g. for
meat, cook without a lid.
Cover food being cooked in the Micro-
wave + Fan Heat combination to avoid
it drying out.
Leave food being cooked in the Micro-
wave + Grill combination uncovered so
that it can brown.
Ensure that food, such as meat and
fish, are cooked for an appropriate
length of time.
For more detailed information on
cooking consult a good microwave
or microwave combi-oven cookbook.

Grilling
The following grill settings are suitable
for browning food:
Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes
with the oven door shut.
Do not select a microwave setting.
Grill n is suitable for browning dishes
such as cauliflower cheese. It can be
used for grilling very thin meat or fish.
Brush the rack with oil and place the
prepared food on the rack.
It is best to grill food of a similar thick-
ness at the same time so that the grill-
ing time for each item does not vary too
greatly.
Fan Grill N is suitable for grilling
larger pieces of meat, e.g. poultry and
kebabs.
Slide the glass tray with the rack
Combination programmes:
Microwave + Grill h + n
and
– into the upper (2nd) runner level for
flat pieces of food
– into the lowest runner level for thicker
pieces of food,
Most items should be turned half way
through cooking.
To grill thicker pieces of food more
gradually after an initial high tempera-
ture, continue grilling at a lower temper-
ature setting to allow the food to cook
through to the centre.
Microwave + Fan Grill h + N
are suitable for cooking food which re-
quires a crisp finish or browning. Micro-
wave power output is limited to 450 W
maximum for the total grilling time.
Preparation of meat or fish
Test to see if cooked
Clean, wipe and season. Do not salt
slices of meat beforehand as this draws
the juices out.
One way of finding out how far through
a piece of meat has been cooked is to
press down on it with a spoon:
Add a little oil if necessary. Other fats
quickly become black or cause the
food to smoke. A little butter can be
added to chicken if desired.
– If there is very little resistance to the
pressure of the spoon, it is still red on
the inside ("rare").
Clean flat fish and slices of fish in the
normal way. To enhance the taste add a
little salt or squeeze a little lemon juice
over the fish.
– If there is some resistance the inside
will be pink ("medium").
– If there is great resistance, it is
throughly cooked through ("well
done").
Remember to fit the grease filter to
the backpanel in front of the fan
when using Fan Grill, either on its
own (Solo) or in a combination
programme.
For more detailed information on
grilling consult a good microwave or
microwave combi-oven cookbook.

Roasting
Auto Roast E
When open roasting on the rack fit
the grease filter in front of the fan
grille at the rear of the oven.
Slide the glass tray with the rack into
the first runner from the bottom.
The following pots can be used:
roasting tins, pots, earthenware, oven-
proof glass, roasting foil.
Make sure the pot and lid have heat-re-
sistant handles.
Auto Roast E
Use Auto Roast E to give meat or
poultry a crisp browned finish.
Microwave + Auto Roast h + E
The roasting time depends on the type
of meat, the size and thickness of the
cut, and can be calculated as follows:
Select combination programme
Microwave + Auto Roast h + E to
cook in a shorter time.
Thickness of the roasting cut of meat x
time per cm per type of meat, see
chart.
The combination programme is not usu-
ally suitable for cooking roast beef or fil-
let steak. The centre would be too well
cooked before the exterior is browned.

15 – 18 mins.
12 – 15 mins.
8 – 10 mins.
Put meat or poultry into the oven with-
out pre-heating.
Exception: Pre-heat at the temperature
suggested when cooking beef and beef
fillet.
Example:
Lamb roast, 8 cm thick
8 x 12 minutes per cm = 96 mins. roast-
ing time
Cooking in a covered pot is highly rec-
ommended:
(NB: there is also a traditional calcula-
tion of approx. 20 minutes to the lb,
(454 grammes) and 20 minutes over).
– the meat stays succulent,
– the oven interior stays cleaner than
when roasting on the rack.
The larger the roast, the lower the tem-
perature to be selected. For cuts above
3 kg select a temperature approx.
10 °C lower than that given in the roast-
ing chart. Roasting will take longer at
the lower temperature, but will be more
even.
Half way through the cooking time re-
move the lid from the pot if browning
the meat.
Note: When roasting on the rack set a
temperature of approx. 20 °C lower
than in a covered pot.

Roasting
Browning only occurs towards the end
of the roasting time.
Useful hints
15 – 20 minutes before the end of roast- Roasting in a covered pot
ing time take the lid off the pot.
Season the meat and place in the pot.
Do not select a higher temperature than Add some knobs of butter or margarine
that advised. This would brown, but not or a little oil or cooking fat. Add about
completely cook the meat.
1/8 litre water when roasting a big lean
joint of meat (2 – 3 kg), or roasting poul-
try with a high fat content.
Microwave + Auto Roast h + E
Slide the glass tray with the rack into
the first runner level from the bottom.
Roasting on the rack
Add a little fat or oil to very lean meat or
place a few strips of streaky bacon on
the top. Do not add too much liquid to
the tray during cooking as this will hin-
der the browning process.
Please note that open roasting can give
rise to excessive smoke.
Use only heat resistant pots, with no
metal in the pot or lid. Microwaves can-
not penetrate metal to reach the food in
the pot.
If using roasting foil
– cut the foil approx. 40 cm longer than
the piece of food
Roasting poultry
– and tie carefully. Make sure the pot,
foil and ties are suitable for micro-
wave use.
For a crisp finish, baste the poultry
10 minutes before the end of cooking
time with slightly salted water.
Together with Auto roast, select a mi-
crowave setting for the total cooking
time of:
Roasting deep frozen meat
Deep frozen meat should be defrosted
first.
– 300 W for roasting meat or fish,
– 150 W for roasting poultry.
For more detailed information on
roasting consult a good microwave
or microwave combi-oven cookbook.
After the roasting process is
finished
Take the roast out of the oven, wrap in
aluminium foil and leave to stand for
about 10 minutes. This helps retain the
juices when the meat is carved.

This method is suitable for baking small This combination programme is suit-
cakes, swiss roll, pastry doughs.
able for doughs which require longer
baking, such as rubbed in and beaten
mixtures, yeast recipes and cheese-
cake.
Most types of heat-resistant tins or
dishes are suitable, including thin-
walled and bright, non-reflective metal
tins.
For preference use ovenproof glass or
ceramic baking dishes, as microwaves
can penetrate these materials into the
food being cooked. Metal tins would re-
flect microwaves, so that they would
only reach the cakes from the top, re-
sulting in a longer cooking time.
Slide the glass tray with the rack into
the 1st runner from the bottom, and
place the baking tin on this.
Do not push the glass tray right to
the back wall, but leave a gap of
about 2 cm. Otherwise browning will
be uneven.
Slide the glass tray into the 1st runner
from the bottom, and place the baking
dish on this.
Baking time should not be too long.
This can lead to the cake etc. drying
out.
Do not push the glass tray right to
the back wall, but leave a gap of
about 2 cm. Otherwise browning will
be uneven.
Increasing the temperature from sug-
gested levels and reducing the time
can have an adverse effect on brown-
ing. To achieve even browning it might
be better to select a slightly longer
cooking time at a slightly lower temper-
ature.

Baking
With metal baking tins there may be
sparking. Try positioning the tin differ-
ently on the glass tray, and make sure
the tin does not touch the interior walls.
Temperature settings, times and micro-
wave power settings in the Baking
Chart are suggestions only. Select an
average temperature and time for first
attempts and adapt accordingly.
If sparking continues, do not use this tin
again in microwave combination mode.
If the grease filter is in position in
front of the fan grille opening this
lengthens baking time.
Do not use paper based containers
coated with aluminium foil, such as
are sometimes provided with packet
cake mixes. There is the danger of
these catching fire.
At the end of the shorter time given,
check to see whether the cake etc. is
done. Insert a wooden or metal skewer
in the centre. If it comes out clean with-
out dough sticking to it, the cake is
ready.
Switch on the microwave setting for the
total cooking time. The microwave set-
ting should not be higher than 150 W.

Cleaning and care
Appliance front and control
panel
Clean the door handle and the control
elements regularly, preferably after
each use. This will help prevent grease
or other deposits adhering to surfaces
and becoming impossible to remove.
^ All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using warm water with a
little washing up liquid applied with a
soft sponge.
Aluminium fronted appliances
^ Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft
cloth.
Aluminium is affected by the way that
light falls it, by the surrounding environ-
ment and by the angle you observe it
from.

cause the steel to darken slightly.
The oven interior is hot after use.
Take care not to burn yourself. Clean
the oven interior regularly, preferably
after each use. If left too long clean-
ing becomes unnecessarily difficult,
and in extreme cases impossible.
Turn the function selector to the Light
nsetting and clean using a solution of
hot water and washing up liquid or mild
detergent applied with a sponge, soft
brush or damp cloth. Wipe dry with a
soft cloth.
^ Gently lift the glass panel and take it
out carefully.
^ Clean in the dishwasher or wash by
hand.
If anything has become burnt on, use a
non-abrasive mild cream cleaner or a
proprietary cleaner for stainless steel,
applied with a non-scouring kitchen
sponge.
When washing the glass panel by
hand lay it on a smooth surface, to
avoid any damage.
Do not use any scouring agents.
These cause scratches.
Do not use too much water on the
cloth or sponge and do not let water
or any other substance find its way
into any openings.
^ Reverse the procedure to refit the
glass panel with care.
The openings in the back wall of the
oven must not be blocked.
Residues of fruit juices as well as cake
mixtures are best removed while the
oven is warm. Spillages of fruit juices
can cause lasting discoloration.
If using an oven spray, the manufac-
turer’s instructions must be followed.
Do not spray into any of the open-
ings.

– if operating with an Automatic
programme the weight has been en-
tered.
– the appliance is correctly plugged in,
– the mains fuse has blown (call the
Service Department),
. . . no operating noise is heard when
the appliance door is opened during
a cooking process in conventional
oven mode
– the time display had been switched
off (see Section on "Time of day dis-
play").
This is not a fault.
. . . nothing happens when a touch
control is pressed.
If the door is opened during a cooking
process the door contact switch will
switch off the heating and depending
on the function chosen, the hot air fan.
^ Check whether:
– the indicator light for that control is lit
up,
. . . a noise is heard after a process
has finished
– the programme lock is activated (see
Section "Programme lock").
This is not a fault.
The cooling fan continues to run for a
short time. When the temperature has
fallen sufficiently the fan switches off
automatically.
If the door is opened during this run-on
time the fan is switched off. If the door
is then shut the fan will start again.

but not the interior lighting.
Exercise caution when changing a
light bulb. Halogen lights get very hot
during use and will remain hot for
some time after being switched off.
^ Check whether the oven interior light-
ing has been switched off, (see "En-
ergy saving functions").
^ Do not touch the surface directly
when changing the bulb as grease
particles from your fingers will adhere
to the surface and damage it. Please
follow manufacturer’s instructions.
If this is not the case, the halogen bulb
needs replacing.
Replace with a new one as follows:
Disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply, (switch off and un-
plug at the socket, or remove the
fuse, or switch off at the isolator as
appropriate).
^ Fit new halogen lamps.
Connection data for halogen lamps:

The pins must lie horizontally to the ap-
pliance. Push the lamps in until they en-
gage.
^ Screw the lamp cover back on.
^ Reconnect the appliance to the
mains supply.
. . . the food is not sufficiently heated
or is not cooked at the end of a set
time
^ Check whether:
– the cooking process has been inter-
rupted and was not restarted,
– if cooking / reheating in microwave

for the setting chosen.
A lower power setting normally re-
quires a longer time.

. . . cakes or biscuits are not cooked
after a recommended time
. . . food cools down too quickly after
being reheated or cooked in micro-
wave mode.
^ Check whether:
When cooked by microwaves, food be-
gins to cook from the outside first, the
inside of the food relying on the slower
conduction of heat. If food is cooked at
a high power level it is possible that the
heat may not have reached the centre
of the food. During standing time heat
is transferred to the centre of the food.
Food may be warm in the middle but
cool on the edge.
– the correct temperature was set.
– there has been a change to the rec-
ipe. The addition of more liquid or
more eggs makes a moister mix
which would take longer to cook.
– whether the grease filter had been
left in place. A longer time would be
needed if this were the case.
When reheating food with different den-
sities, such as plated meals, it is sensi-
ble to start with a low power level and
lengthen the time required.
. . . cakes or biscuits are unevenly
browned
There will always be a degree of differ-
ence in browning.
. . . the minute minder does not work
^ If browning is very uneven, check:
The short time programmed for the min-
ute minder can only start counting
down when the appliance door is shut
and the Start touch control has been
pressed.
– whether the temperature was set too
high,
– whether the glass tray had been
pushed so far in that it touched the
back wall,
. . . the touch control for the short
step system will not register.
– whether the grease filter had been
left in place on the back wall,
^ Check whether:
– the colour and composition of the
baking tins being used. Try using a
different tin next time.
– microwave mode has been selected.
– the time entered is less than 10 min-
utes. A time of more than 10 minutes
cannot be stored.
