Suitable containers  
Stainless steel cooking containers are  
supplied with the appliance.  
You can also use your own containers  
and dishes. However, please note the  
following:  
Other containers are available in a  
variety of sizes, both perforated and  
solid, as optional accessories.  
– The container must be heat resistant  
up to 212°F (100°C). Heat resistant  
glass, ceramics, porcelain  
Please note when selecting cookware:  
(chinaware), plastics, stainless steel  
or enamel dishes are all suitable.  
– Use perforated cooking containers  
whenever possible. The steam can  
reach the food from all sides and  
cook evenly.  
– Food will take longer to cook in a  
dish with thick sides.  
– For thicker items, e.g. potatoes, build – Place the dish on the supplied rack.

the container and the top of the

items.  
– Dense dishes such as casseroles or  
food such as peas or asparagus  
which have little space between  
them will take longer to cook  
because the steam has less space to  
work in. The more of this type of food  
the container becomes filled with, the  
longer the cooking time will be. It is  
best to use 2 or 3 shallow containers  
for these foods. The recommended  
cooking times are for shallow  
containers. For larger fill heights the  
cooking time is extended.  
See "Cooking tips" for more information.

Cooking tips  
Tips for steaming  
– Follow the cooking time for pasta on  
the packaging.  
– The cooking times for cooking with  
steam are almost the same as  
cooking in a pot.  
– The cooking liquid gets absorbed by  
some food (e.g. rice). With other food  
it can be used for gravy or sauces.  
– The steam prevents the food from  
drying out and the disadvantages  
come with it. The food stays moist  
and juicy. The same is true not only  
for vegetables but also for desserts,  
fish and meat recipes.  
– You can prepare gravy in the steam  
oven by adding flour and butter to  
the liquid.  
– Grease the perforated container  
when cooking fish. Grease the solid  
container when cooking eggs,  
e.g. scrambled eggs.  
– You can cook on any level or on  
multiple levels at a time. The cooking  
time will not change.  
– To avoid any transfer of tastes  
caused by moisture dripping from  
above, perforated containers should  
be inserted in the lower runner and  
the solid containers should be  
– The food will not brown and does not  
get a crust. The food is gently  
steamed, not fried or baked. Cheese  
will melt but not brown. Steaming  
food is healthy and accentuates its  
flavor.  
placed on the rack in an upper level.  
– Yeast dough can be proofed in the  
steam oven. Select the "Custom"  
function and lower the default  
temperature to 104°F (40°C). Cover  
the dough.  
– When cooking frozen food,  
e.g. vegetables, break up large  
clumps so they cook evenly. The  
cooking time is approximately the  
same as for fresh vegetables.  
– The weight in the automatic program  
is the weight per piece. The setting -  
and therefore the cooking time - stay  
the same, regardless if you cook only  
one piece of salmon 0.5 lbs or ten  
pieces of salmon 0.5 lbs at the same  
time.  
– Frozen and fresh vegetables with the  
same cooking time can be steamed  
together.  
– Since steam cooking retains flavors  
so well, food should not be seasoned  
until after it has been cooked.  
– When cooking with liquids only fill the  
containers 3/4 of the way.  
– Food like noodles or rice need to be  
cooked in fluids. Noodles should be  
well covered with fluid. Rice, beans  
and cereals need to be cooked in  
equal amounts of food and water.

Cooking tips  
Defrosting frozen foods  
Tips for defrosting  
Defrosting times depend on the type  
and weight of the food and at what  
temperature it was deep-frozen.  
,Do not cook with defrosting  
liquids.  
– When defrosting poultry, set the food  
on the rack and insert the drip tray  
beneath it. This prevents the food  
from lying in the defrosting liquid.  
^ Insert the food in a container or on  
the rack.  
^ Select the function "Defrost".  
^ If desired, adjust the default  
temperature (see table).  
– To defrost non dripping food, remove  
the wrapping and place it on the rack  
or in a container.  
^ Select the defrost time (see table).  
– Fish does not need to be fully  
defrosted before cooking. Defrost it  
so that the surface is sufficiently  
thawed to take herbs and seasoning.  
Fish coated with breadcrumbs  
should be fully defrosted so that the  
coating sticks.  
^ Allow food to stand at room  
temperature after defrosting. This  
standing time (see table) is  
necessary to ensure that the food is  
fully defrosted.  
– Turn, stir or separate food about  
halfway through the defrosting  
period.  
– Do not refreeze food once it has  
been defrosted.  
– Defrost deep frozen, precooked  
meals according to the  
manufacturer’s instructions.  
– Defrost baked items such as pastry  
or cakes in a closed freezer bag.

Special uses  
Blanching  
Making yogurt  
The steam oven can also be used to  
blanch vegetables and fruit to prepare  
them for freezing  
Ingredients: 3.5 oz (100 g) yogurt (with  
live cultures) and 1 quart (1 l) of  
pasteurized or fresh whole milk. Yogurt  
and milk must have the same fat  
contents.  
^ Put the prepared vegetables/fruit  
(cleaned, washed, chopped, etc.)  
into a perforated container.  
^ Heat (do not boil) fresh milk to 194°F  
(90°C), let it cool before mixing  
together with the yogurt. This is  
necessary to give the yogurt a firm  
texture.  
^ Place the container in the oven and  
insert the drip tray at the lowest level.  
^ Select "Custom".  
^ Set a duration of 1-2 minutes.  
^ Fill 6 yogurt jars with the mixture and  
cover with aluminum foil.  
^ Once blanched, plunge the  
vegetables/fruit into ice water.  
^ Set the covered jars on the rack.  
You can then freeze them once they  
have dried thoroughly.  
^ Select "Custom" and lower the default  
temperature to 104°F (40°C).  
^ Set a duration of 5 hours.  
^ Let the yogurt cool and store in the  
refrigerator.  
Once the yogurt has cooled completely  
it will have a firm texture.

Special uses  
Disinfecting baby bottles  
The steam oven can be used to  
disinfect baby bottles and other  
containers. Check beforehand that all  
parts are heat resistant to 212 °F  
(100 °C).  
^ Place the drip tray on the lowest  
runner level and place the rack  
above it.  
^ Dismantle, clean and thoroughly  
rinse the bottles. Space the individual  
parts out on the rack, ensuring that  
they do not touch one another. This  
allows the hot steam to reach all  
sides.  
^ Select "Custom". The recommended  
temperature of 212 °F (100 °C) is  
suitable for disinfection.  
^ Set a time of 15 minutes.  
Allow the bottles to dry naturally and  
use them as soon as possible after  
disinfection. All parts of the bottles must  
be completely dry before they are  
reassembled.

Cleaning and Care  
General Information  
All appliance surfaces are subject to  
scratching. Scratches on glass  
surfaces can lead to breakage.  
After each use, clean and dry the entire  
appliance, letting it cool down first.  
Do not close the appliance door until it  
has completely dried.  
All surfaces are subject to  
discolorations and damage if they

thoroughly.  
Once locked the appliance cannot be  
used until the descaling program has  
been run.  
If you want to descale before the  
appliance is locked, select the function  
"Descaling".  
^ Contact Miele or visit the online store  
to order descaling tablets or use a  
household descaling agent  
containing citric acid.
