Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Dispose of or recycle all packaging
materials safely as soon as possible.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre, and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or
disconnected from the mains electricity
by a competent person.

How the microwave oven works
In a microwave oven there is a
high-frequency tube called a
– cooking, reheating and defrosting in
a microwave oven is quicker than
using conventional methods.
magnetron. This converts electrical
energy into microwaves. These
microwaves are distributed 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 improved with
the turntable engaged.
– nutrients, such as vitamins and
minerals, are generally retained.
– the colour, texture and taste of food
are not impaired.
Microwaves stop being produced as
soon as the cooking process is
interrupted or the appliance door is
opened.
In order for microwaves to reach the
food, they must be able to penetrate
the cooking utensil being used.
When the appliance is in operation, the
closed, sealed door prevents
microwaves escaping from the
appliance.
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
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.
As heat is produced directly in the
food,
– food can generally be cooked
without adding much liquid or
cooking oil.

Modes of operation
What can a microwave oven
do?
In what ways can a microwave
oven be used?
In the microwave oven, food is cooked,
reheated or defrosted quickly.
Microwave Solo mode
Suitable for defrosting, reheating and
cooking.
You can use the microwave in the
following ways:
– Food can be defrosted, reheated or
cooked by entering a power setting
and a time.
Grilling
Ideal for grilling very thin cuts of meat,
e.g. bacon.
– Deep-frozen, ready-made meals can
be defrosted and then reheated or
cooked.
Combination mode
(Microwave + Grill)
– The microwave oven can also be
used for other tasks, e.g. for proving
dough, melting chocolate and butter,
dissolving gelatine etc.
Ideal for browning dishes with
toppings. The microwave cooks the
food, and the grill browns it.
Automatic programmes
You can choose from the following
automatic programmes:
– Five defrosting programmes
(N: Ad 1 to Ad 5),
– Four cooking programmes for frozen
food
(N °: AC 1 to AC 4).
– and eight cooking programmes for
fresh food
(°: AC 1 to AC 8).
These programmes are weight
dependent. You enter the weight of the
food, and then the cooking time is
calculated automatically.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Microwaves
Containers and lids with hollow
handles or knobs in which moisture
can collect are unsuitable, unless
the hollowed areas are adequately
vented.
Without vent holes pressure can
build up, causing the container to
crack or shatter with the danger of
injury.
– are reflected by metal,
Metal
Metal containers, aluminium foil,
metal cutlery, and china with
metallic decoration such as gold
rims or cobalt blue must not be used
on microwave mode.
Metal reflects microwaves and
obstructs the cooking process.
Also, avoid using plastic pots where
the foil lid has not be completely
removed.
– pass through glass, porcelain,
plastic and card,
Exceptions:
– Ready meals in aluminium foil dishes
These can be defrosted and reheated
in the microwave oven, if
recommended by the manufacturer.
Remove the lid and make sure the foil
dish is at least 2 cm from the oven walls
at all times.
– and are absorbed by food.
Important:
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 microwave oven.
The heat distribution will be more even.
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.

on the grilling rack in case the dish
sparks or arcs. If sparks occur,
transfer food to a microwave-safe
container.
Earthenware can get very hot, and
may crack.
– Pieces of aluminium foil
For even defrosting and to avoid
overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of
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 programme.
Glazes and colours
Some glazes and colours contain
metals which make them unsuitable
for use in a microwave oven.
Wood
Make sure that the aluminium foil is
at least 2 cm from the oven walls at
all times. It must not touch the walls.
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
Moisture contained in the wood
evaporates when exposed to
microwave energy, causing the
wood to dry and crack.
– Metal meat skewers or clamps
These should only be used if they are
very small in comparison to the size of
the cut of meat.
Plastics
When purchasing plasticware, make
sure that it is suitable for use in a
microwave oven.
Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass
are ideal for use in the microwave oven.
Plastics must only be used with
Microwave Solo.
Crystal glass is unsuitable as it
contains lead which could cause the
glass to crack in the microwave.
They must be heat-resistant to a
minimum of 110°C. Otherwise the
plastic may melt and fuse with the
food.
Porcelain
Special plastic utensils designed for
use in microwave ovens are available
from good retail outlets.
Porcelain is a suitable material.
Do not use porcelain with gold or
silver edging or items with hollow
knobs or handles, as insufficient
ventilation may cause pressure.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Disposable containers, such as trays
made from polystyrene, can only be
used for very short, timed warming and
reheating of food.
Testing dishes for their
suitability
If in doubt as to whether glass,
earthenware or porcelain plates or
dishes are suitable for use in a
microwave oven, a simple test can be
performed:
Plastic boiling bags can be used for
cooking and reheating. 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.
^ 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.
^ Close the door.
Do not use metal clips, plastic clips
containing metal parts, or paper ties
containing wire. There is a danger
that they will ignite when heated.
^ Turn the power selector to 800 W.
^ Enter a time of 30 seconds with the
time selector.
Disposable containers
^ Press the Start button.
Only those plastic disposable
At the end of the test, the water in
the glass should be warm and the
dish cool. If the dish is hot and the
water cold, it would be unwise to
use the dish.
containers which are specified by the
manufacturer as suitable for use in a
microwave oven may be used.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of
plastic, paper or other inflammable
materials.
If a crackling noise is heard
accompanied by sparks during the
test, switch the appliance off imme-
diately (press button Stop/C twice).
Disposable containers are not always
recyclable or bio degradable.
Any crockery which causes this
reaction is unsuitable for use with
microwave power.
If any doubt exists about the
suitability of containers, please
contact the supplier.
This test cannot be used to check
whether items with hollow knobs or
handles are suitable for use with
microwave power.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
The cover
Do not use a lid or cover if
– prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
– food coated with breadcrumbs is
being cooked.
– cooking meals which are to be given
a crisp finish.
– speeds up the cooking process.
– prevents food from drying out.
– helps keep the oven interior clean.
– the gourmet plate is being used.
Because the cover can only
withstand temperatures of up to
110°C, it must only be used in
Microwave Solo mode. It must not
be used in conjunction with the
gourmet plate. At temperatures in
excess of 110°C, the plastic can
melt and get into the food.
The cover should not form a seal
with the container. If the cover is
used with a container which only has
a narrow diameter, there might not
be enough room for condensation to
escape through the holes in the top.
The cover could get too hot and
could start to melt.
Always cover food with the cover
supplied.
Alternatively, use lids or covers made of
microwave-safe glass or plastic, or use
a clingfilm recommended for use in a
microwave oven (pierce as instructed
by the manufacturer).
Heat can cause normal clingfilm to
distort and fuse with the food.
Sealed glass containers, such as
jars of baby food, must be opened
before they are placed in the oven.

Before using for the first time
^ Check the appliance for any
damage.
Important:
After unpacking, let the appliance
stand for approx. 2 hours at room
temperature after transporting it to
its final location before connecting it
to the mains.
Do not use the microwave if
– the door is warped.
– the door hinges are loose.
– holes or cracks are visible in the
casing, the door or the oven interior
walls.
This is important for the correct
electronic functioning of the appliance.
Operating the appliance with this
type of damage will result in
microwave leakage and present a

Reheating
Select the following microwave power
levels to reheat food:
Food taken straight from the refrigerator
will take longer to reheat than food
stored at room temperature. The time
required depends on the nature of the
food, its initial temperature and the
amount to be cooked.
Drinks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 800 W
Food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 600 W
Food for babies and toddlers . 450 Watt
We do not recommend heating or
reheating food 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 W, and tasted to make sure it is
not too hot for a baby's palate
before serving. When reheating
other food or drink, heat to a high
temperature and allow to cool to a
suitable heat for eating. For formula
milk follow the manufacturer's
instructions.
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated.
If in any doubt that a sufficiently high
temperature has been reached,
continue reheating for a little longer.
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.

heat transfer from the food to the
container may be considerable, making
the container itself hot.
Always remove the lids from jars,
especially jars of baby food.
Loosen the screw cap and the
rubber teat before warming baby
bottles.
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at
room temperature at the end of a
reheating process to enable the heat to
spread evenly throughout the food.
When reheating liquids, place the
boiling rod supplied with the
appliance 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
after it has been left to stand.

Cooking
Place the food in a microwave-proof
dish and cover it.
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
to prevent the food from bursting.
When cooking, it is a good idea to
select a power level of 800 W to start
with and then when the food is hot
reduce the power level to 450 W for
more gentle continued cooking.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells in the microwave oven in a
specially designed egg-boiling
device available from specialist
shops.
For dishes such as rice or semolina
pudding, first select a power level of
800 W, and then reduce it to 150 W for
simmering.
Eggs can burst, even after they have
been taken out of the oven.
Tips on cooking
Vegetable cooking times depend on
the texture of the vegetable.
Eggs can be cooked without their shells
in the microwave oven, only if the yolk
membrane has been punctured several
times first.
Fresh vegetables contain more water
than vegetables which have been
stored, and usually cook more quickly.
Add a little water to vegetables which
have been kept stored.
The pressure could otherwise cause
the egg yolk to explode.
Food taken straight from the refrigerator
takes longer to cook than food which
has been kept at room temperature.
After cooking
Be careful when removing a dish
from the oven. It may be hot.
Stir or turn food from time to time during
cooking to help it cook more evenly.
Although heat is not normally produced
in the container itself by the

In the microwave oven, food begins to
cook from the outside first, the inside of
the food relying on the slower
conduction of heat.
This microwave oven should only be
repaired by a suitably qualified
technician trained by Miele.
If food is cooked at a high power level,
it is possible that the heat may not have
reached the centre of the food, so it is
hot on the outside but cold in the
centre. During standing time heat is
transferred to the centre of the food.
This may leave the food warm in the
middle but cool on the outside. When
reheating food with different densities,
such as plated meals, it is therefore
sensible to select a lower power level
and lengthen the duration required.
