Description of the functions
Condensate tray
When you are using perforated containers, always place the
condensate tray on the lowest shelf level to collect any drops
of liquid and allow them to be removed easily.
You can also use the condensate tray as a cooking container
if necessary.
Water container
The maximum water level is 1.2 litres, the minimum 0.75 litres.
The water level markers are located inside and outside the
container. On no account exceed the upper or maximum
level marker.
The maximum quantity of 1.2 litres of water is sufficient to run
a cooking programme at 100 °C for approx. 2 hours, and the
minimum quantity of 0.75 litres of water is sufficient to run a
cooking programme at 100 °C for approx. 30 minutes,
providing the door is not opened.
If the p symbol is flashing, either the water container is not
sitting correctly or there is not enough water in it.
Noises
You can hear the noise of the fan when the appliance is
operating.
Noises similar to those of a kettle can be heard when steam is
being generated.

Heating-up phase
During the heating-up phase the oven compartment is heated
to the set temperature. The display will show the temperature
of the cooking compartment as it rises.
The duration of the heating-up phase will depend on the
quantity and the temperature of the food. In general the
heating-up phase will last for approx. 7 minutes. The duration
will be longer if you are preparing refrigerated or frozen food.
Filling the water container with hot water will shorten the
heating-up time.

Before using for the first time
Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied
with this documentation in the space provided in the "After
sales service, data plate, guarantee" section of this booklet.
Cleaning for the first time

release. The door will open slightly.

Before using for the first time
Setting the water hardness level
The steam oven is set at the factory to the hard (S04) water
hardness setting. It must be adjusted to local water hardness
to ensure problem-free operation and so that descaling can
be carried out at the correct interval. The harder the water,
the more often the appliance will need to be descaled.
^ Check the hardness of your local water supply and adjust
the water hardness as necessary (see "Settings").
Setting the correct boiling point for water
Before cooking food for the first time, you must set the boiling
point for water, as this varies according to the altitude of the
location of the appliance. This procedure adjusts the
appliance to the altitude in your area and also flushes out the
waterways.
This process must be carried out to ensure efficient
functioning of your appliance.
^ Run the appliance at 100 °C for 15 minutes. Proceed as
described in "Brief operating instructions".
If you move house, the appliance will need to be re-set for
the new altitude if this differs from the old one by more than
300 m. To do this, descale the appliance (see "Cleaning and
care / Descaling").

Additional functions
Pre-heating
Your appliance has a pre-heating function. This heats the
oven interior to approx. 40 °C. The heating-up time is then
shorter as the oven interior is pre-heated and therefore the
cooking process takes less time.
The appliance is delivered with the pre-heating function
deactivated. If you wish to use it you will need to alter the
setting (see "Settings").
When the pre-heating function has been activated you can
still choose whether you want to use it for each programme.
The water container must be filled with water for
pre-heating and present in the appliance.
The pre-heating process will be cancelled if the door is

General notes
This section contains general information about steam
cooking. You will find more detailed information about
particular foods and how to cook them in the other sections.
The advantages of cooking with steam
Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is
not immersed in water.
Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food
better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend
seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food retains its
fresh, orginal colour.
Suitable containers
Cooking containers
This steam oven is supplied with stainless steel cooking
containers.
Other containers, in a variety of sizes, both perforated and
solid, are available as optional extras (please refer to
"Optional accessories"). This enables you to choose the most
suitable container for the food you are preparing.
It is best to use perforated containers if possible. The steam
can reach the food from all sides and the food is cooked
evenly.
Your own containers
You can also use your own containers. Please note:
– If using plastic cooking containers, make sure that they are
heat-resistant to 100 °C and able to withstand hot steam.
With plastic containers please check with the manufacturer
that they are suitable for use in a steam oven.
– Thick-sided containers made from porcelain, china or
stoneware, for example, are not so suitable for steam
cooking. They do not conduct heat well and as a result
cooking durations will be considerably longer than those
given in the charts.
26

General notes
– Place the cooking container in a sufficiently large
perforated container, not on the oven floor.
– Ensure that there is a gap of at least 3 cm between the
upper rim of the container and the top of the cooking
compartment to allow sufficient steam into the container.
Condensate tray
When using a perforated cooking container, push the
condensate tray onto the lowest shelf runner to catch any
drips.
You can also use the condensate tray as a cooking container
if necessary.
Shelf level
You can select any shelf level. You can also cook on several
levels at the same time. This will not alter the cooking
duration.
Frozen food
The heating up phase for frozen food is longer than for fresh
food. The greater the quantity of frozen food, the longer the
heating up phase.
Temperature
A maximum temperature of 100 °C is reached in the steam
oven. Most types of food will cook at this temperature. Some
more delicate types of food, such as soft fruit, must be
cooked at lower temperatures as otherwise they will burst.
More information is given in the relevant section.
Combination with food warming drawers
When the warming drawer is in use, the oven cavity can
reach a temperature of up to 40 °C. If in this case you set a
temperature of 40 °C, no steam will be produced because the
oven cavity is too warm.

General notes
Cooking duration (time)
In general, the cooking durations for cooking with steam are
the same as for cooking food in a saucepan. More
information about any factors which may affect the cooking
duration is given in the relevant sections.
The quantity of food does not affect the cooking duration.
1 kg of potatoes will take the same time to cook as 500 g.
The durations given in the charts are guidelines only. We
recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted. If
food is not cooked sufficiently after the shorter time it can be
put back in the oven and cooked for longer.
Cooking with liquid
When cooking with liquid only fill the cooking container 2/3 full
to prevent the liquid spilling when the cooking container is
removed from the oven.
Your own recipes
Food and recipes which are prepared in pot or a pan can
also be cooked in the steam oven. The cooking times in the
steam oven will be the same. Please note that food will not be
brown or crisp when cooking with steam.

Steam cooking
Vegetables
Fresh
Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual way, i.e. wash, clean
and cut them up.
Frozen
Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted beforehand,
Exception: vegetables frozen in a block.
Frozen and fresh vegetables which take the same length of
time to cook can be cooked together.
If vegetables have frozen together in clumps, break these up
before cooking with steam. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging regarding cooking duration.
Cooking containers
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. For an even result, it is best
to use a shallow container for these types of foods, and only
fill it 3-5 cm deep. When cooking large quantities divide the
food between 2 or 3 shallow cooking containers rather than
using one deep one.
Different types of vegetables which take the same length of
time to cook can be cooked together.
Use solid containers for vegetables which are cooked in
liquid.
Shelf level
When cooking vegetables with a distinctive colour (e.g
beetroot) in a perforated container, place the perforated
container directly above the condensate tray to avoid any
colour transfer.

Steam cooking
Cooking duration
As with conventional methods, when cooking vegetables with
steam the cooking duration will depend on the size and also
whether you want the vegetables to be al dente or soft/well
done. Example:
waxy potatoes, cut into quarters = approx. 18 minutes
waxy potatoes, cut in half = approx. 22 minutes
Brussels sprouts, large, al dente = approx. 12 minutes
Brussels sprouts, small, soft = approx. 12 minutes
Settings
Temperature: 100 °C
Duration: See chart
The durations given in the chart are guidelines for fresh
vegetables. We recommend selecting the shorter cooking

Steam cooking
Meat
Fresh
Prepare the meat in the usual way.
Frozen
Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before cooking in the
steam oven (see "Defrosting").
Preparation
For meat which needs to be seared before being cooked,
sear the meat in a pan on the hob first.
Cooking duration
The cooking duration depends on the thickness and the
texture of the meat, and not on the weight. The thicker the
piece of meat, the longer the cooking duration. A piece of
meat weighing 500 g which is 10 cm thick will take longer to
cook than a piece of meat weighing 500 g which is 5 cm
thick.
Tips
If you want to preserve the juices, cook in a perforated
container. Place a solid container underneath to catch the
juices.
You can use these to make a gravy or freeze them for later
use.
Boiling fowl, back or top rib and meat bones can all be used
to make stock. Place the meat together with some mixed
vegetables in a solid cooking container and add cold water.
The longer the cooking duration, the stronger the stock.

Steam cooking
Fish
Fresh
Prepare fresh fish in the usual way, i.e. clean, gut and fillet.
Frozen
Defrost frozen fish before cooking (see "Defrosting").
Preparation
Add some lemon or lime juice to fish before cooking. The
citric acid makes the flesh stay firm.
It is not necessary to season fish with salt when cooking with
steam as this method retains the minerals which give the fish
its unique flavour.
Cooking containers
If using a perforated container to cook fish, grease it
beforehand.
Shelf level
When cooking fish in a perforated container at the same time
as cooking other types of food in other containers, place the
container with the fish directly above the condensate tray to
catch any liquid and so avoid any transfer of tastes to other
food.
Temperature
85 °C – 90 °C
For gently cooking delicate types of fish, such as sole.
100 °C
For cooking firmer types of fish, e.g. cod and salmon.
Also for cooking fish in sauce or stock.

Steam cooking
Cooking duration
The cooking duration depends on the thickness and the
texture of the fish, and not on the weight. The thicker the fish,
the longer the cooking duration. A 3 cm thick piece of fish
weighing 500 g will take longer to cook than a 2 cm thick
piece of fish weighing 500 g.
The longer fish cooks, the firmer its flesh will become. Use the
cooking durations given in the chart.
If you find that the fish is not cooked sufficiently only cook it
for a few minutes more.
When cooking fish in sauce or stock, we recommend that you
increase the cooking duration quoted by a few minutes.
Tips
Adding herbs and spices, such as dill, will help bring out the
full flavour of the fish.
Cook large fish in the swimming position. To help maintain the
shape of the fish, place a small cup or similar upside down in
the cooking container, and arrange the fish bellyside down
over the cup.
You can use any fish scraps, e.g. fish heads, bones, tails etc
to make a fish stock. Place the fish scraps together with
some mixed vegetables in a solid cooking container and add
cold water. Cook at 100 °C for 60 to 90 minutes. The longer
the cooking duration, the stronger the stock.
Blue fish is fish which is cooked in water and vinegar (refer
to the recipe for the ratio of water to vinegar). It is important
not to damage the skin of the fish. This method is suitable for
cooking carp, trout, tench, eel and salmon.

Steam cooking
Menu cooking (cooking whole meals)
You can use the steam oven to cook a whole meal containing
types of food which have different cooking durations, e.g. fish
fillet with rice and broccoli. The food which has the longest
cooking duration is placed in the steam oven first and then
each subsequent dish is placed in the oven at the
appropriate time so that the whole meal is ready at the same
time.
Shelf level
When cooking fish or food with a distinctive colour (e.g.
beetroot) in a perforated container, place the perforated
container directly above the condensate tray to avoid any
transfer of tastes or colour to other food.
Temperature
Whole meals should be cooked at a temperature of 100 °C as
this is the temperature required to cook the majority of foods.
Do not cook a whole meal at the lowest temperature when
different temperatures are required for different types of food,
e.g. 85 °C for seabream and 100 °C for potatoes.
If the recommended cooking temperature for the food is
85 °C for example, try cooking it at 100 °C and testing the
result. Some delicate types of fish with a soft structure, e.g.
sole and plaice will become very firm when cooked at 100 °C.
Cooking duration
If you are increasing the recommended temperature, shorten
the cooking duration by approx. 1/3.

Special applications
Reheating
The steam oven is very effective at reheating food gently,
without drying it out or cooking it further. The food will reheat
evenly and does not need to be stirred during the reheating
process.
You can reheat individual dishes or plated meals which have
been prepared previously (e.g. meat, vegetables and
potatoes).
Suitable containers
Small quantities can be reheated on a plate, larger quantities
should be placed in a cooking container.
Duration
The number of plates or containers has no bearing on the
cooking duration.
The cooking durations listed in the chart relate to an average
portion per plate/container. Increase the cooking duration for
larger quantities.
Tips
Do not reheat large items, such as a joint of roast meat,
whole. Divide it into portions and reheat these as plated
meals.
Compact items, such as stuffed peppers or roulades, should
be cut in half.
Please note that breaded items, such as schnitzel, will not
retain their crispness when they are reheated.
Reheat sauces separately, except for dishes such as stew
and casseroles where the sauce is part of the dish.

Special applications
Defrosting
It is much quicker to defrost items in the steam oven than at
room temperature.
Temperature
60 °C is the best temperature for defrosting.
Exception: 50 °C for minced meat and game.
Before and after defrosting
Remove all packaging before defrosting.
Exceptions:
Leave bread, biscuits and cakes in their packaging as
otherwise they will absorb moisture and become soft.
Allow defrosted food to stand at room temperature after
removing it from the oven. The standing time is necessary to
allow the even distribution of heat.
Cooking containers
Use a perforated container with the condensate tray
underneath it when defrosting food which will drip, such as
poultry. This way food will not be lying in defrosted liquid.
,It is particulary important to observe food hygiene
rules when defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid from
defrosted poultry. Pour it away and wash the container,
the sink and your hands. Danger of salmonella poisoning.
Food which does not drip can be defrosted in a solid
container.

Special applications
Tips
Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking.
Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently thawed to take herbs
and seasoning. Depending on the thickness of the fish, 2 - -5
minutes should be enough.
When defrosting food which has frozen together, e.g. berries,
chops, fish fillets etc. separate it about half-way through the
defrosting time.
Do not refreeze food once it has thawed.
Defrost frozen pre-cooked meals according to the
manufacturer's instructions.

Special applications
Bottling
Only use unblemished, fresh produce which is in good
condition for bottling.
Glass jars
Use clean glass jars and accessories and check them for any
defects. Glass jars with twist off lids or glass lids with a
rubber seal are suitable.
Make sure that all the glass jars are the same size so that
bottling is carried out evenly.
After you have filled the jars with the bottled produce, clean
the glass rims with a clean cloth and hot water and then seal
the jars.
Fruit
Sort fruit carefully, rinse it briefly but thoroughly and allow it to
drain. Take great care when cleaning soft fruit as it is very
delicate and squashes easily.
Remove any peel, stalks, cores or stones.
Cut up large fruit. For example, cut apples into slices.
If you are bottling produce. with stones (e.g. plums, apricots)
without removing the stones, pierce the fruit several times
with a fork or wooden screwer as otherwise it will burst.
Vegetables
Rinse, clean and cut up vegetables.
Green vegetables should be blanched before bottling to help
them retain their colour (see "Blanching").
Fill volume
Fill the glass jars with produce up to a maximum of 3 cm
below the rim. Do not pack it down as this will damage the
cell walls of the produce. Tap the jar gently on a cloth to help
distribute the contents evenly.
Fill the jars with liquid. The produce must be completely
covered.
Use a sugar solution for fruit and a salt or vinegar solution for
vegetables.

Special applications
Extracting juice with steam
You can use the steam oven to extract juices from fruit, such
as soft berries and cherries.
It is best to use overripe fruit, as the riper the fruit the greater
the quantity of juice produced. Very ripe fruit will also
produce a more intense flavour.
Preparation
Sort and clean the fruit. Cut out any blemishes.
Remove the stalks from grapes and morello cherries as these
are bitter. The stalks do not need to be removed from
strawberries, raspberries etc.
Tips
Try experimenting with mild and tart fruit.
Adding sugar will increase the quantity of juice produced and
improve the flavour. Sprinkle the fruit with sugar and leave to
absorb for a few hours before juicing. For sweet fruit add 50 -
100 g sugar, and for more tart fruit 100 - 150 g sugar per kilo
of fruit.
If you wish to bottle the juice rather than consume it straight
away, pour it whilst hot into hot, sterilised bottles and then
seal immediately with sterilised tops.
Procedure
^ Put the prepared fruit (cleaned, washed, chopped etc.) into
a perforated cooking container.
^ Place a solid container or the condensate tray underneath
to catch the juice.

Special applications
Making yoghurt
To make yoghurt, you will need either fresh live yoghurt or
yoghurt culture, obtainable from health food shops.
Use natural yoghurt with live culture and without additives.
Heat-treated yoghurt is not suitable.
The yoghurt must be fresh (short storage time)
You can use either unchilled long-life milk or fresh milk.
Long-life milk can be used without any further treatment.
Fresh milk must first be heated to 90 °C and then cooled
down to 35 °C. Do not boil it. Fresh milk will give a better set
than long-life milk.
The yoghurt and milk should have the same percentage fat.
Do not move or shake the jars whilst the yoghurt is thickening.
Immediately after preparation leave the yoghurt to cool in the
fridge.
How well home prepared yoghurt sets will depend on the
consistency, fat content and the cultures used in the starter
yogurt. Not all yoghurts are suitable for use as starter yoghurt.
Possible reasons for unsatisfactory results
Yoghurt has not set:
Incorrect storage of starter yoghurt, too much time out of the
refrigerator, e.g. in transportation, damaged packaging, milk
not sufficiently heated.
Liquid has separated:
The jars were moved, yoghurt was not cooled down quickly
enough.
Yoghurt is gritty:
Milk was overheated or in poor condition, milk and starter
yoghurt not evenly stirred.

Cleaning and care
Coupling seal
If the water container becomes difficult to remove and
replace or the fault message F20 appears, rub a small
amount of the silicone grease supplied (see "Guide to the
appliance / Accessories supplied") into the inside of the
coupling seal. When doing this, do not detach the seal but
leave it in place.
When handling silicone grease, please observe the following
safety measures:
– Remove any silicone grease from your skin either by
wiping it off or by washing it off.
– If the grease gets into the eyes, it must be rinsed out with
plenty of clean water.
– If it is swallowed, seek medical advice.
The coupling seal should be replaced with a new one if it
becomes brittle or porous or if an unusually large amount of
water collects on the floor of the water container
compartment.
Coupling seals can be ordered from the Miele Spare Parts
Department.
Only use the silicone grease supplied. On no account
must margarine or oil or any other domestic grease or fat
be used, as these can cause the seal to swell.

Cleaning and care
Descaling
For optimum cleaning results we recommend that you use
Miele descaling tablets (see "Optional accessories"). A
proprietary citric acid based descaling agent can also be
used. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.
Ensure that the descaling agent does not come into
contact with the metal control panel or the door handle as
this could cause marks. However should any descaling
agent get onto these surfaces, wipe it away immediately.
The appliance will need descaling after a certain number of
operating hours. The display will alert you. After switching on,
the descaling symbol k and the number 10 will appear in the
display. The number indicates that the appliance can be
used a further 10 times before it locks out. If the appliance is
not descaled immediately, a 9 will appear in the display the
next time the appliance is switched on, and so on.
The appliance will lock after the last remaining cooking
process and it must be descaled before it is used again. We
recommend descaling before it locks out.
^ Touch s until an audible tone sounds and "0:22 h" appears
in the display and the k symbol starts flashing.
^ Fill the water container with 1 litre of descaling solution.
Follow the instructions on the descaling agent packaging
carefully.
^ Push the water container into the appliance until it
connects.
