Location
If the steam oven is installed at an
altitude higher than 1000 m above sea
level, the boiling point for water will be
lower than the boiling point for water at
sea level. To cater for this, the boiling
point for water in the appliance can be
altered. Proceed as described in
"Programming".
The steam oven is set at the factory to
water hardness range IV (04) .
If your water hardness level differs from
this you will need to re-programme the
appliance. Proceed as described in
"Programming".
You can use the test strip supplied to
check the water hardness level, or your
local water supplier will be able to
advise you on the water hardness of
your area.

Practical tips
Suitable containers
– More compact dishes such as
casseroles or bakes, or food such as
peas or asparagus spears, which
have little or no space between them
will take longer to cook because the
steam has less space to work in. The
fuller the container, the longer it will
take to cook. It is best to use 2 or 3
flat containers rather than one deep
one for these types of foods, and
then fill them only 3 - 5 cm deep.

containers are supplied with the
appliance.
Other containers, in a variety of sizes,
both perforated and solid, are available
as optional extras (see "Optional
accessories").
When choosing the most suitable
container for the particular food you are
cooking, please note:
calculated on this principle. Deeper
dishes will take longer to cook.
– Use perforated cooking containers
whenever possible so long as the
food is suitable, e.g. for vegetables.
The steam can reach the food from
all sides and the food is cooked
evenly.
Heat-resistant glass, ceramic,
porcelain, stainless steel and enamel
dishes are all suitable. Important:
– The container must be heat resistant
to 120 °C.
– With large items of food, such as
whole potatoes, the steam can work
more effectively because there are
spaces between the individual
pieces into which the steam can
penetrate. This way a large quantity
will take the same time to cook as a
smaller amount and large, deep
containers can be used. Where
possible, space the food out to allow
the steam more room.
– Food will take considerably longer to
cook than the time quoted if the dish
has thick sides.
– Place the dish on the tray supplied.
– Ensure that the dish does not touch
the walls of the cooking compartment
so that steam can reach the food
from all sides.

Practical tips
Tips on steaming
– Soak pulses and grains in cold water
before cooking.
We recommend using:
Pulses and grains swell during
cooking and so need to be cooked in
liquid. The ratio of pre-soaked pulses
and grains to water is 1:1.
– Steam with pressure ° 120 °C for
rapidly cooking robust foods.
– Steam without pressure P 100 °C
for gently cooking delicate foods.
– Rice also swells when cooked and
should be cooked in liquid. The
proportion of food to liquid will vary
depending on the type of rice and
how it has been pre-treated. With
parboiled rice, basmati rice and wild
rice, the proportion of food to liquid
should be 1:1, with brown rice 1:1.5
and risotto rice 1:2.
– You can select any shelf level. You
can also cook on several levels at
the same time. This will not alter the
cooking duration.
– When cooking frozen food, e.g.
vegetables, ensure that any large
clumps frozen together are broken
up first so that they cook evenly. The
cooking duration is approximately
the same as for fresh vegetables.
– Dry pasta and noodles should be
well covered with liquid. Reduce the
cooking time recommended on the
packaging by about 1/ as the pasta
– Frozen and fresh vegetables which
take the same length of time to cook
can be cooked together.
3
will start to swell during the heating
up time.
– Frozen fish should be partially
defrosted before cooking. We
recommend using the "Defrost"
function (see "Defrosting" for more
information).
– Cooking liquids do not boil away.
They are either absorbed by the
food, as with rice and pasta, or they
remain in the dish as with casseroles.
The liquid can then be used for
making a sauce, e.g. by adding
crème fraîche.
– Cooking with steam retains the true
taste of the food better than
conventional cooking. Therefore food
should not be seasoned until after it
has been cooked.
– Only fill solid containers 3/4 full with
liquid.

°120 °C programme, during the
cooling down phase air will be
circulated around the cooking
compartment. This air can dislodge
food from the cooking container and
soil the cooking compartment. This
mostly occurs when food is being
cooked in liquid (soup, casseroles
etc) and also when the food has a
pulpy consistency, e.g. apple sauce.
– Grease perforated containers
beforehand if used for cooking fish,
and solid containers if used for
cooking dishes containing eggs.
– When cooking meat without adding
any additional liquid to the
container, the meat juices can be
used to for making gravy and
sauces. Put the meat and other
ingredients, e.g. vegetables, in a
perforated container. Place a solid
container underneath to catch the
juice.
When cooking these types of food,
cover the cooking container with the
tray or lid (see "Optional
accessories"). Place the covered
cooking container between the two
runners of the shelf level; do not
place it on top of the upper runner.
– If you wish to add additional liquid

Practical tips
Cooking whole meals
At the end of the cooking duration you
can remove all three dishes at the same
time.
It is very economical and practical to
cook a whole meal at the same time in
the steam oven.
Blanching
In general, cooking durations will vary
according to the type of food. This
means that you will need to open the
steam oven at different times to add a
particular dish. Our test kitchen
recommends the following procedure,
as shown in this example using Steam
with pressure °:
You can use your steam oven to blanch
vegetables and fruit for freezing.
^ Put the prepared fruit or vegetables
into a perforated container and place
it in the oven.
^ Select Steam without pressure P
100 °C.
Lamb stew
Potatoes
Carrots
8 minutes
8 minutes
4 minutes
^ Set a time of 1-2 minutes.
^ Press the Start/Stop button.
^ Once blanched, plunge the
vegetables/fruit into ice cold water to
cool them down quickly. Drain them
well.
Proceed as follows:
^ First place the food with the longest
cooking duration (the lamb stew and
the potatoes) in the steam oven.
The vegetables/fruit can now be frozen.
^ Select Steam with pressure °
120 °C.
^ Calculate the initial cooking duration
by subtracting the duration for the
carrots from the duration for lamb
stew / potatoes, i.e. 8 minutes less 4
minutes = 4 minutes.
^ Set a duration of 4 minutes and press
the Start/Stop button.
^ Once the 4 minutes and also the
cooling down phase has elapsed,
place the second dish (carrots) in the
oven.
^ Set the cooking duration for the
second dish, i. e. 4 minutes.
^ Press the Start/Stop button.

Cleaning and care
Cooking compartment and
pull-out shelf
If necessary, the pull-out shelf can be
removed completely for cleaning.
The cooking compartment, the inside of
the appliance door and the pull-out
shelf should be cleaned and dried after
each use. Allow the appliance to cool
down to a safe temperature before
cleaning.
Most cooking residues can be removed
easily with a damp cloth and a mild
solution of hot water and washing-up
liquid.
To remove the pull-out shelf
^ Pull the shelf out as far as possible.
^ Unscrew the two thumb nuts a.
In hard water areas, limescale deposits
can build up inside the oven cavity and
on the pull-out shelf.
^ Take the pull-out shelf off its runners
and then clean and dry it.
Limescale can also lead to
discolouration inside the oven cavity.
This can be removed easily with the
Miele ceramic and stainless steel hob
cleaner (see "Optional accessories").
Wipe the oven cavity with a damp cloth
after using the cleaner, and run the
oven for five minutes on the Steam
without pressure function P at
100 °C.
To replace the pull-out shelf
^ Pull the two runners out as far as
possible.
^ Push the shelf under the two holders
b located at the back of the runners.
^ Place the shelf on the two screws at
the front of the runners.
Wipe the pull-out shelf with clean water
after using the cleaner, and dry with a
soft cloth.
^ Then tighten the thumb nuts.
Limescale deposits can also be
removed using vinegar, and
discolouration with citric acid
descalant. Finally, wipe surfaces with
clean water, and dry with a soft cloth.

Cleaning and care
Shelf runners
The runners inside the oven can be
washed by hand or in the dishwasher.
Any discolouration or limescale
deposits can be removed easily with
the Miele ceramic and stainless steel
hob cleaner (see "Optional
accessories"). Rinse the runners
thoroughly with clean water to remove
any residual cleaning agent.
To remove the runners
^ Loosen fixing screws a just as much
as required to be able to remove the
runners.
It is not possible to remove the
screws completely.
To replace the runners
^ After cleaning, re-fit the runners by
placing the runner with the guide b
(at the front of the middle runner)
onto the loosened fixing screw.
^ Fit the eyelet, located at the rear of
the middle runner, over the protuding
pin c in the rear wall of the cooking
compartment.
^ Tighten the screws again.

Cleaning and care
Water nozzle
^ Descale the nozzle using the Miele
system descaling agent or with a
suitable proprietary descaling agent
following the instructions on the
packaging.
During the cooling down phase, water
is sprayed into the cooking
compartment from a water nozzle which
is located behind the deflector plate at
the back of the runners on the right
hand side. With prolonged use, this
nozzle can become dirty and will
require descaling.
After descaling rinse the nozzle under
fresh running water.
Before replacing the nozzle, all parts of
the appliance which carry water must
be flushed through.
The nozzle must be descaled if the fault
message F13 appears in the display.
^ Close the door and switch the
appliance on. Select Steam without
pressure P.
^ Set a duration of 1 minute, and press
the Start/Stop button.
^ Wait until the cooling down phase
has been completed (see "At the end
of the cooking duration").
^ Then open the door and replace the
water nozzle and the shelf runners.
The steam oven can now be used
again in the normal way.
^ Wait until several beeps sound. Now
open the door and remove the food
which is cooking.
If the fault message F13 reappears after
the nozzle has been descaled, contact
the Service Department.
Take care as a large amount of
extremely hot steam may escape
when the door is opened. The food
will also be very hot.
^ Leave the appliance to cool down
with the door open.
^ Remove the runners on the
right-hand side (see "Shelf runners").
^ Pull out the nozzle.
