Warning and safety instructions  
Technical safety  
This appliance complies with all rele-  
vant legal safety requirements.  
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.  
Do not use the microwave  
if  
– 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 leak-  
age, and present a hazard to the user.  
Keep these instructions in a safe  
place and pass them on to any fu-  
ture user.  
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 responsible for un-  
authorised work.  
Correct usage  
The appliance is intended for do-  
mestic use only to defrost, reheat,  
cook and to grill food: Any other usage  
is not supported by the manufacturer  
and could be dangerous.  
The manufacturer cannot be held re-  
sponsible for damage caused by im-  
proper use of the appliance.  
Never open the casing of the appli-  
ance.  
Tampering with electrical connections  
or components and mechanical parts is  
highly dangerous to the user and can  
cause operational faults or electric  
shock.  
Never use the microwave to store  
or dry items which could ignite  
easily. Fire hazard!  
If the connection cable is damaged  
the new cable must be fitted by a  
Miele approved service technician.  
Do not let children access the ap-  
pliance or its controls. Supervise its  
use by older children, the elderly or in-  
firm. Please ensure that they are aware  
of how a microwave oven works and  
understand the dangers of improper  
use.  
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. This data must  
correspond in order to avoid risk of  
damage to the appliance. Consult a  
suitably qualified person if in doubt.

Warning and safety instructions  
The electrical safety of this appli-  
Use  
ance can only be guaranteed when  
continuity is complete between the ap-  
pliance and an effective earthing sys-  
tem, which complies with local and na-  
tional safety regulations. It is most im-  
portant that this basic safety require-  
ment is present. If in any doubt, the  
electrical wiring should be checked by  
a qualified electrician.  
Always ensure that food is suffi-  
ciently heated.  
Many factors will affect the overall  
cooking time, including the size and  
amount of food, its initial temperature,  
changes to the recipe and the shape  
and size of cooking container.  
Some foods may contain micro organ-  
isms which are only destroyed by thor-  
ough cooking, therefore when cooking  
or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is  
particularly important that food is fully  
cooked through (at temperatures over  
70 °C for at least 10 minutes). If in  
doubt select a longer cooking or re-  
heating time.  
The manufacturer cannot be held liable  
for the consequences of an inadequate  
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).  
The appliance is only completely  
isolated from the electricity supply  
when:  
– it is switched off at the wall socket  
and the plug removed.  
Do not pull on the cable, only on the  
plug.  
– the mains fuse is withdrawn.  
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in  
countries where this is applicable).  
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, re-heating or defrosting.  
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).  
Always remember that times for  
cooking, reheating and defrosting  
are usually considerably shorter than  
with traditional methods of food prepa-  
ration.  
Ensure that current is not supplied  
to the appliance while maintenance Excessively long cooking times can  
or repair work is being carried out.  
lead to food drying out and burning, or  
could even cause it to catch fire. There  
is also a danger of fire if breadcrumbs,  
flowers, herbs, etc., are dried in the mi-  
crowave oven. Always ensure that this  
type of procedure is supervised.  
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.

Warning and safety instructions  
Do not use the microwave to heat  
up herb cushions or pads filled  
with wheat grains or lavender, such as  
those used in aromatherapy. These  
pads can ignite when heated even after  
they have been removed from the mi-  
crowave.  
When heating liquids, the boiling  
rod provided should be placed into  
the container.  
Fire hazard!  
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.  
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.  
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-  
denly and explosively. Danger of burn-  
ing!  
Never cook or reheat food or liq-  
uids in sealed containers or bot-  
tles.  
With baby bottles the screw top  
teat must be removed.  
Otherwise pressure builds up which  
can cause the bottle or container to ex-  
plode posing a severe risk of injury.  
Before serving remember to allow a  
sufficient standing time and then  
always check the temperature of the  
actual food itself after taking it out of the  
microwave. Do not be misled by the  
temperature of the container which  
does not necessarily give a correct in-  
dication of the temeparature of the food  
or liquid in it. This is particularly im-  
portant when preparing food for ba-  
bies, children, and the elderly or in-  
firm.  
The formation of bubbles can be so  
strong that the pressure forces the oven  
door open. The user could be injured  
and the appliance damaged.  
The boiling rod ensures that the liquid  
boils evenly and that bubbles form at  
an early stage during the operation.

Warning and safety instructions  
If smoke occurs in the oven interior,  
to avoid fuelling any flame do not  
open the oven door.  
Interrupt the process (by pressing the  
Stop/C button twice). Switch off at the  
wall socket and where applicable, re-  
move the plug. Do not open the oven  
door until the smoke has dispersed.  
Do not leave the oven unattended  
when reheating or cooking food in  
disposable containers made of plastic,  
paper or other inflammable material.  
Before using single use containers  
make sure they are suitable for use in  
microwave ovens. See appropriate sec-  
tion.  
Never heat undiluted alcohol in the  
microwave oven as this can easily  
ignite. This is a fire hazard.  
Eggs can only be cooked in their  
shells in the microwave oven in a  
specially designed egg-boiling device  
available from specialist shops. Simi-  
larly, hard-boiled eggs should not be  
reheated in the microwave as this may  
lead to the eggs bursting, even once  
they have been removed from the oven.  
Do not heat up tins in the micro-  
wave oven. Pressure can build up  
and they may explode. This could result  
in injury or damage.  
Do not use any containers or cut-  
lery made from or containing metal,  
aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware,  
temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden  
utensils or cutlery, metal clips or wire  
ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims,  
or cream pots with the foil lid only par-  
tially removed.  
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 could otherwise cause  
the egg yolk to explode.  
Danger of injury.  
Such items could be damaged, or  
cause a fire hazard.  
Food with a thick skin or peel, such  
as tomatoes, sausages, jacket po-  
The rack supplied with the appliance is tatoes and aubergines, should be  
designed to be compatible with micro-  
waves, and can therefore be used for  
grilling with or without the microwave  
function.  
pierced or the skin cut in several places  
before cooking to allow steam to es-  
cape and prevent the food from burst-  
ing.  
Do not reheat food in the oven in  
heat-retaining bags, such as those  
used for ready grilled chicken or naan  
bread from take-aways which are in-  
tended for use in normal ovens. These  
heat-retaining bags usually contain a  
thin layer of aluminium foil which re-  
flects microwaves. This reflected en-  
ergy can, in turn, cause the outer paper  
covering to become so hot that it ig-  
nites.

Warning and safety instructions  
Always ensure that food or a  
browning dish has been placed in  
Never place the hot glass tray (or  
any other hot cooking containers)  
the microwave, and that the turntable is on a cold surface, such as a tiled or  
in place, before switching on.  
granite worktop. The glass tray or con-  
tainer could crack or shatter, and the  
worktop surface could be damaged.  
Use a heat-resistant mat or wire cooling  
rack.  
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 use the oven to heat up the  
room. Due to the high temperatures  
radiated, objects left near the oven  
could catch fire.  
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.  
Do not use the appliance as a rest-  
ing place for other items.  
The heat from the top of the appliance  
could cause some kinds of items to  
melt.  
To check the temperature of the  
food, first interrupt the cooking pro-  
cess. Then use a thermometer specifi-  
cally approved for food use to measure  
the temperature of the food. Never use  
a thermometer containing mercury or  
liquid, as these are not suitable for use  
with very high temperatures and will  
break very easily.  
With all functions except micro-  
wave solo mode the rack, oven in-  
terior, grill element, side runners, door  
and housing can get hot! Do not let  
small children touch the oven while it is  
in operation, there is the danger of be-  
ing burnt. Supervise its use by the el-  
derly or infirm.  
Wear oven gloves when taking  
dishes in and out of the oven, or  
when handling dishes or food in the  
oven if the grill is on or has just been in  
operation. Danger of burning.  
Never use a steam-cleaning appli-  
ance to clean this appliance. Pres-  
surised steam could reach the electri-  
cal components and cause a short cir-  
cuit.  
The rack and glass tray get hot  
during grilling (with and without mi-  
crowave). Danger of burning.  
In countries where there are areas  
which may be subject to infestation  
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay  
particular attention to keeping the appli-  
ance and its surroundings in a clean  
condition at all times. Any damage  
which may be caused by cockroaches  
or other vermin will not be covered by  
the appliance guarantee.  
Only use the baking tray with the  
fan heat function. It must not be  
used with the microwave function.

Warning and safety instructions  
When using browning dishes:  
Always use oven gloves when han-  
dling the browning dish to avoid  
burns.  
Never place the browning dish di-  
rectly on to a table or work surface.  
Use a suitable heat-resistant mat, grid  
or board to protect the work surface or  
table and prevent heat-marks.  
Browning dishes should only be  
used in a microwave oven, or as a  
serving dish.  
In a conventional oven the special  
glaze would get damaged.  
Disposal of your old appliance  
Before disposing of your old appli-  
ance first make it unusable. Cut off  
and render any plug unusable. Cut off  
the cable directly behind the appliance  
to prevent misuse. This should be done  
by a competent person.  
The manufacturer cannot be held lia-  
ble for damage caused by non-com-  
pliance with these Warning and  
Safety instructions.

How the microwave oven functions  
In the microwave oven, food is cooked, As heat is produced directly in the  
reheated or defrosted quickly.  
food,  
– food can generally be cooked with-  
out adding much liquid or cooking  
oil.  
How does the microwave oven func-  
tion?  
In a microwave oven there is a high-fre-  
quency tube called a magnetron. This  
converts electrical energy into micro-  
waves. These microwaves are distrib-  
uted evenly throughout the oven interior  
and rebound off the metal sides of the  
oven interior to reach the food from all  
sides. Microwave distribution is im-  
proved with the turntable engaged.  
– cooking, reheating and defrosting in  
a microwave oven is quicker than us-  
ing conventional methods.  
– nutrients, such as vitamins and min-  
erals, are generally retained.  
– colour, texture and taste of food are  
not impaired.  
Microwaves stop being produced as  
soon as the cooking process is inter-  
rupted or the appliance door is opened.  
When the appliance is in operation, the  
closed, sealed door prevents micro-  
waves escaping from the appliance.  
In order for microwaves to reach the  
food, they must be able to penetrate  
the cooking utensil being used. Micro-  
waves can penetrate porcelain, glass,  
cardboard and plastics but not metal.  
Do not, therefore, use utensils made of  
metal, or which contain metal, for exam-  
ple 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 absorbed.  
Microwaves pass through a suitable  
container and find their way directly into  
the food. 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.

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 flat containers than in  
rectangular containers, providing better  
results.  
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 an  
oven being used in microwave  
mode.  
– are reflected by metal,  
The metal reflects the microwaves, hin-  
dering the cooking process.  
Exceptions:  
– If recommended by the producer,  
pre-cooked meals packed in alu-  
minium foil containers can be de-  
frosted and reheated in the micro-  
wave oven. Important: Remove the  
lid first.  
However, as food is only heated from  
the top it is better to remove the food  
from the aluminium foil container and  
transfer it to a dish suitable for a mi-  
crowave oven. The heat distribution  
will be more even.  
– pass through glass and chinaware,

meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of  
aluminium foil may be used to mask  
wingtips or other thin parts for the  
last few minutes of the process.  
Glazes and colours  
Some glazes and colours contain  
metal.  
Make sure that the aluminium foil is  
at least 2 cm from the oven walls at  
all times. It must not touch the walls.  
This makes them unsuitable for use in a  
microwave oven.  
– Metal meat skewers or clamps  
should only be used if they are very  
small in comparison to the size of the  
cut of meat.  
Plastics  
Plastic containers must only be used  
for microwave mode alone.  
Plastics must be heat-resistant to a  
minimum of 110 °C.  
Glassware  
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass  
are ideal for use in the microwave oven.  
Otherwise the plastic may melt and  
fuse with the food.  
Special plastic utensils, designed for  
use in microwave ovens are available  
from good retail outlets.  
Crystal glass contains lead which  
could cause the glass to crack.  
Glass dishes with a milled rim are  
also subject to this risk.  
Melamine is not suitable as it absorbs  
energy and heats up.  
Both are unsuitable.  
Disposable containers, such as trays  
made from polystyrene, can only be  
used for very short timed warming and  
reheating of food.  
Porcelain (chinaware)  
Porcelain (chinaware) is a suitable ma-  
terial.  
When purchasing new containers,  
make sure that they are suitable for use  
in a microwave oven.  
Do not use porcelain with gold or sil-  
ver edging or items with hollow  
knobs or handles, as insufficient  
ventilation may cause pressure.  
Plastic boiling bags can be used for  
cooking and reheating.  
Earthenware  
They should be pierced beforehand so  
that steam can escape. This prevents a  
build-up of pressure and reduces the  
risk of the bag bursting.  
Decorated earthenware is only suit-  
able if the decoration is beneath an  
all-over glaze.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens  
Roasting bags and tubes can also be  
Testing dishes for their  
suitability  
used. 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.  
The bag should be pierced according  
to the manufacturer’s instructions.  
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:  
^ 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.  
Do not use metal clips or wire ties,  
even if bound by paper.  
^ Close the door.  
There is a danger that they will ignite  
when heated.  
^ Turn the power selector to 900 Watts.  
^ Enter a time of 30 seconds with the  
time selector.  
Wood  
Wooden dishes are not suitable.  
^ Press START.  
At the end of the test, the water in the  
small container 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.  
Moisture contained in the wood evapo-  
rates when exposed to microwave en-  
ergy, causing the wood to dry and  
crack.  
Disposable containers  
If a crackling noise is heard accom-  
panied by sparks during the test,  
switch the appliance off immediately  
(press button Stop/C twice).  
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.  
Any crockery which causes this reac-  
tion is unsuitable for use in the micro-  
wave oven.  
Do not leave the oven unattended  
when reheating or cooking food in  
disposable containers made of plas-  
tic, paper or other inflammable ma-  
terials.  
If any doubt exists about the suitabil-  
ity of containers, please contact the  
supplier.  
Disposable containers are not always  
recyclable or bio-degradable.  
This test cannot be used to check  
whether items with hollow knobs or han-  
dles are suitable for use in a microwave  
oven.

cooking.  
There are 7 different microwave power  
settings to choose from.  
The higher the power setting the more  
microwaves reach the food.  
Grill n  
When heating up food which cannot be  
stirred or turned during cooking, as with  
a plated meal, it is preferable to use a  
lower microwave power setting. This  
ensures the heat is distributed evenly.  
Heat for long enough to reach the tem-  
perature required.  
Ideal for grilling thin cuts of meat, e.g.  
steak or sausages.  
Combination mode -  
Microwave + Grill  
Ideal for cooking and browning dishes  
with toppings. The microwave cooks  
the food and the grill browns it.  
Times for defrosting, reheating,  
cooking  
The time required depends on:  
– the initial temperature of the food.  
Food taken from the refrigerator will  
need longer to be reheated or  
cooked than food already at room  
temperature.  
Automatic programmes  
You can choose from the following auto-  
matic programmes:  
– three automatic defrosting  
programmes (N OM),  
– the type and texture of food.  
Fresh vegetables contain more water  
and cook more quickly than stored  
vegetables.  
– two automatic cooking programmes  
(°Q)  
– and two combination programmes  
– the amount of food.  
(QK).  
These programmes are weight depend-  
ent. You enter the weight of the food  
and then the cooking time is calculated  
automatically.  
In general:  
allow approx. time and a half for  
double the quantity. For a smaller  
quantity, possibly shorten the time  
but ensure food is cooked thor-  
oughly.  
– the shape and material of the  
container.

Operation  
Placing the container in the oven  
Ideally the container should be placed  
in the middle of the oven.  
Turntable  
The turntable function starts automati-  
cally when the appliance is started.  
Food is more evenly cooked, re-  
heated or defrosted with the turnta-  
ble in operation.  
When using the turntable ensure that  
the dishes or the food to be cooked are  
not larger in size than the turntable.  
It is best not to switch the turntable off.  
Only switch it off if there is a danger of  
something blocking it, e.g. a large dish  
which is wider than the turntable. Press  
the äbutton to switch the turntable  
off.  
Make sure that you stir the food during  
the cooking time or that you turn the  
food so that it can heat up evenly.

Reheating  
Select the following microwave power  
settings to reheat food:  
of the food, its initial temperature and  
the amount to be cooked.  
Drinks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 900 watts  
Food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 600 watts  
Food for babies and toddlers. 450 watts  
Always ensure that food is suffi-  
ciently cooked or reheated.  
If in any doubt that a sufficiently high  
temperature has been reached, con-  
tinue reheating for a little longer.  
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.  
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 eating. For  
Stir or turn food from time to time during  
cooking. Stir the food from the outside  
towards the middle, as food heats more  
quickly from the outside.  
After reheating  
Be careful when removing a dish  
from the oven. It may be hot.  
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.  
made-up milk follow the maker’s in-  
structions.  
Always use a lid or cover for reheating  
food, except when a drier finish is  
needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.  
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at  
room temperature at the end of a re-  
heating process to enable the heat to  
spread evenly throughout the food.  
Always remove the lids from jars, es-  
pecially jars of baby food.  
Remove the rubber teat and seal top  
before warming baby bottles.  
When reheating liquids, place the  
boiling rod supplied with the appli-  
ance into the cup or glass.  
Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a  
microwave oven, even without the  
shell. The eggs can burst.  
After heating 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 af-  
ter it has been left to stand.  
Food taken straight from the refrigerator  
requires longer to reheat than food  
stored at room temperature. The time  
required depends largely on the nature  
25  
 
 
Cooking  
Place the food in a microwave-safe dish  
and cover it.  
Eggs can only be cooked in their  
shells in the microwave oven in a  
specially designed egg-boiling de-  
vice available 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.  
Eggs can be cooked without their  
shells in the microwave oven only if  
the yolk membrane has been punc-  
tured several times first. The pres-  
sure could otherwise cause the egg  
yolk to explode.  
When cooking fresh vegetables, fish,  
meat, poultry first select power setting  
of 750 watts and then turn it down to  
450 watts for more gentle continued  
cooking.  
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.  
Ensure that food, such as meat and  
fish, are cooked for an appropriate  
length of time.  
For dishes such as rice or semolina  
pudding first select a power setting of  
750 watts and then turn down to  
150 watts to simmer.  
Food with a thick skin or peel, such  
as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes  
and aubergines, should be pierced or  
the skin cut in several places before  
cooking to allow steam to escape and  
prevent food from bursting.

Defrosting / Defrosting and reheating / cooking  
Defrosting  
Defrosting and reheating /  
cooking  
Remove the food from its packaging  
and place in a microwave-safe con-  
tainer. Do not cover. Turn, stir or sepa-  
rate the food about half-way through  
the defrosting time.  
Deep-frozen food can be defrosted and  
immediately reheated or cooked.  
After defrosting select 750 watts fol-  
lowed by 450 watts.  
To defrost delicate foods, e.g. cream,  
butter, gateau and cheese, select  
80 watts. However to achieve an even  
result, remove from the oven and finish  
defrosting at room temperature.  
Remove the food from its packaging  
and place in a covered microwave-safe  
dish for defrosting and reheating or  
cooking. Exception: Minced meat  
should be left uncovered while cooking.  
Soups, stew and vegetables should be  
stirred several times during the pro-  
cess. Separate slices of meat half-way  
through the programme. Turn pieces of  
meat and fish at the half-way stage.  
To defrost meat, unpack the frozen  
meat and lay it on an upturned plate in  
a glass or china container so that the  
meat juice can run out, but be col-  
lected. Turn half way through defrost-  
ing.  
Deep-frozen pre-cooked meals in card-  
board trays which, according to manu-  
facturer’s instructions are suitable for  
use in a conventional oven, are micro-  
wave-safe.  
For defrosting food such as bread,  
cakes or fruit, a setting of 150 watts is  
recommended.  
After defrosting  
If defrosting is followed by reheating  
or cooking  
Allow the food to stand at room temper-  
ature for a few minutes after defrosting  
to enable the heat to spread evenly  
throughout the food.  
Allow the food to stand at room temper-  
ature for a few minutes to enable the  
heat to spread evenly throughout the

Practical tips  
Melting margarine, butter  
Melt 100 g at 450 watts uncovered for  
approx. 1-11/2 minutes.  
Melting chocolate  
Break 100 g into pieces, melt at  
450 watts uncovered for approx. 2 min-  
utes.  
Dissolving gelatine  
Add water according to manufacturer’s  
instructions given on the packet and  
melt at 450 watts for approx. 1/2-1 min-  
ute, stirring occasionally.  
Preparing flan topping / jelly glaze  
Gently heat 1 sachet + 1/4 litre liquid at  
450 watts uncovered for approx.  
4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.  
Proving dough  
(500 g flour) cover and leave to rise for  
approx. 8-10 minutes at 80 watts.  
Skinning tomatoes  
Cut 3 tomatoes crosswise, drop into  
water and heat at 450 watts for approx.  
2 minutes. The skin can now be peeled  
away easily. Take care, the tomatoes  
may be very hot.

Grilling  
There are three grill settings. Use grill  
setting 3, the highest setting, when  
cooking flat pieces of meat just under  
the grill so that the meat cooks in the  
shortest time possible. You can change  
from one grill setting to another at any  
time during operation.  
Do not operate the grill if it has been  
lowered, e.g. for cleaning.  
This would damage it.  
^ Turn the power selector to the point  
(12 o’clock position).  
If the total grilling time required is less  
than 15 minutes, the grill should be  
pre-heated for approx. 5 minutes before  
placing food under the grill.  
^ Press n.  
The grill symbol n and 0:00 light up  
and GP3 flashes in the display.  
Flat pieces of fish and meat should usu-  
ally be turned half way through grilling  
for even results. Larger pieces should  
be turned several times.  
^ Use the rotary selector to change the  
grill setting if required.  
^ A few seconds later 0:00 will flash.  
The duration can now be set using  
the rotary selector.  
Grilling times will vary depending on  
the type of food and how thick it is.  
Use the n button to alternate between  
the grill setting and duration.  
When grilling directly on the rack, the  
glass tray should be placed underneath  
the rack to catch any fat or juices.  
^ Once a grill setting and duration have  
been selected press START.  
^ Place food on the rack and/or glass  
tray and then put the rack and/or  
glass tray into the oven on the re-  
quired runner level, or place the food  
directly on the turntable.  
An audible tone will sound when the  
cooking process is complete.  
The rack and glass tray become hot  
during use. Danger of burning!  
Use the 2nd runner from the top for  
thicker items such as pork chops and  
the top runner for thinner items such as  
bacon.  
They will be easier to clean if  
washed in soapy water immediately  
after grilling.  
If placing food on the turntable, leave  
the turntable switched on, to give a  
more even result.

Cleaning and care  
Disconnect the microwave oven  
from the power supply before clean-  
ing (e.g. remove the plug from the  
electrical socket).  
Oven housing and interior  
The housing and interior can be  
cleaned using a damp cloth with a little  
washing up liquid or a mild detergent  
and water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.  
^ The turntable can be removed for  
cleaning.  
Avoid too much water as this could  
penetrate the openings.  
^ Always keep the roller ring under-  
neath it clean as well as the oven  
floor. Otherwise the ring might not run  
smoothly.  
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents  
which could scratch.  
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned  
with a proprietary non-abrasive cleaner  
for stainless steel.  
^ Clean the area between the turntable  
and the carrier.  
The carrier is located in the middle of  
the oven floor and can be removed  
for cleaning.  
The grill element can be lowered when  
cool to clean the roof of the oven.  
To neutralise odours in the microwave  
put a cup of water with some lemon  
juice in the oven and simmer for a few  
minutes.  
Do not turn the carrier manually, as  
this could damage the drive motor.  
Door interior  
For more heavy soiling, heat a glass of  
water for 2 to 3 minutes until the water  
begins to boil. The steam will collect on  
the walls and soften the soiling a little.  
The oven interior can now be wiped  
clean using a little washing up liquid if  
necessary.  
Always keep the door interior clean. Do  
not use abrasive cleaning agents.  
Check the door and door seal at regu-  
lar intervals for any sign of damage. If  
any damage is noticed, the appliance  
should not be used until the fault has  
been rectified by a Miele authorised
