• If there is water on the cooking compartment floor when operating the appliance at temperatures above 120 °C, this will damage the enamel.
• Do not use the appliance if there is water on the cooking compartment floor.
• Wipe away any water on the cooking compartment floor before operation.

If the insulation of the power cord is damaged, this is dangerous.

• Never let the power cord come into contact with hot appliance parts or heat sources.
• Never let the power cord come into contact with sharp points or edges.
• Never kink, crush or modify the power cord.

An ingress of moisture can cause an electric shock.

3 Environmental protection and saving energy

3.1 Disposing of packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.

• Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

3.2 Saving energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power.

• Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recommended settings tell you to do so. ➡️ "How it works", Page 29
• Not preheating the appliance can reduce the energy used by up to 20%.
• Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins. These types of baking tin absorb the heat particularly well.
• Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation. This maintains the temperature in the cooking compartment and eliminates the need for the appliance to reheat.
• When baking multiple dishes, do so in succession or in parallel. The cooking compartment is heated after baking the first dish. This reduces the baking time for the subsequent cakes.
• For longer cooking times, you can switch the appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends. There is sufficient residual heat to finish cooking the dish.
• Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment. Accessories that are not being used do not need to be heated.
• Allow frozen food to defrost before cooking. This saves the energy that would otherwise be required to defrost it.

• Switch off the display in the basic settings. ➡️ "Basic settings", Page 15. Energy is saved when the display is switched off.

You can find product information in accordance with (EU) 65/2014 and (EU) 66/2014 below the energy label and online on the product page for your appliance.

Note: The appliance requires:

• A maximum of 2 W in networked standby mode
• A maximum of 0.5 W in non-networked standby mode with the display switched off

Depending on the appliance type, additional or more comprehensive functions are available for your appliance with the Home Connect app. You can find more information about this in the app. ➡️ "Home Connect ", Page 16

5.1 Types of heating

To ensure that you always find the right type of heating to cook your food, we explain the differences and applications below. The symbols for each type of heating help you to remember them.

When you select a type of heating, the appliance suggests a suitable temperature or setting. You can use these values or change them within the specified range.

For temperature settings above 275 °C and grill setting 3, the appliance reduces the temperature to approx. 275 °C or grill setting 1 after approx. 40 minutes.

5.2 Temperature

With most types of heating SSS, you can read the current temperature in the cooking compartment from approx. 30 °C and the set temperature side-by-side on the display during heating, e.g. 120|210 °C. When you are preheating the appliance, the optimal time to place the food in the cooking compartment is as soon as the displayed temperature in the cooking compartment and the set temperature are the same.

Note: Due to thermal inertia, the temperature that is displayed may differ slightly from the actual temperature inside the cooking compartment.

Residual heat indicator
When the appliance is switched off, a red line around the control ring indicates the residual heat in the cooking compartment. The further the temperature drops, the darker the ring. The ring goes out completely at approx. 60 °C.

6 Accessories

Use original accessories. These have been made especially for your appliance.

Note: Accessories may become deformed if they get hot. Deformation has no effect on function. As the accessory cools down, it will regain its original shape.

Accessories

The accessories supplied may differ depending on the appliance model.

6.1 Locking function

The locking function prevents the accessories from tilting when they are pulled out. You can pull out the accessories approximately halfway without them tipping. The accessories must be inserted into the cooking compartment correctly for the tilt protection to work properly.

6.2 Sliding accessories into the cooking compartment

Always slide the accessory into the cooking compartment the right way round. This is the only way to ensure that accessories can be pulled out approximately halfway without tipping.

1. Turn the accessories so that the notch a is at the rear and is facing downwards.
2. Insert the accessory between the two guide rods for a shelf position.

3. Push the accessory all the way in, making sure that it does not touch the appliance door.

26 How it works

Here, you can find the ideal settings for various types of food as well as the best accessories and cookware. We have perfectly tailored these recommendations to your appliance.

Tip: A lot of other information about the preparation, corresponding adjustment values and recipes can be found in the Home Connect app or on our website www.bosch-home.com.

26.1 General cooking tips

Take note of the following information when cooking all types of food.

• The temperature and cooking time depend on the amount of food and the recipe. Settings ranges are specified for this reason. Try using the lower values to start with.
• The setting values apply to food placed in the cooking compartment while the cooking compartment is still cold. If you want to preheat anyway, do not place accessories into the cooking compartment until it has finished preheating.
• Remove any accessories that are not being used from the cooking compartment.

ATTENTION!

Acidic food may damage the wire rack

• Do not place acidic food, such as fruit or food with an acidic marinade directly on the wire rack.

Information for those allergic to nickel

In rare cases, small amounts of nickel may pass into the food.

You can buy suitable accessories from customer service, from specialist retailers or online. ➡️ "Other accessories", Page 10

26.2 Baking tips

• Dark-coloured metal baking tins are most suitable for baking cakes, bread and other baked goods.
• Use wide, shallow cookware for bakes and gratins. Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow cookware and it browns more on top.
• If you are cooking bakes directly in the universal pan, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at level 2.
• The setting values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a baking tray and dough placed in a loaf tin.

ATTENTION!

When the cooking compartment is hot, any water inside it will create steam. The change in temperature may cause damage.

• Never pour water into the cooking compartment when it is still hot.
• Never place cookware containing water on the cooking compartment floor.

Shelf positions

Use the hot air heating function ♨️.

Note: Items that are placed in the appliance on baking trays or in baking tins/dishes at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.

26.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips

• The recommended settings are for fridge-temperature food and unstuffed, oven-ready poultry.
• Place the poultry onto the cookware breast-side or skin-side down.
• Turn roasting joints, grilled items or whole fish after approx. ½ to ⅔ of the specified time.

Roasting on the wire rack

Food roasted on the wire rack will become very crispy on all sides. You can roast large poultry, for example, or multiple individual pieces at the same time.

• Roast pieces of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.
• Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire rack.
• To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan, with the wire rack inside it, into the cooking compartment at the specified shelf height.
• Add up to ½ litre of water to the universal pan, depending on the size and type of food that you want to roast.

You can make a sauce from the juices that are collected. This also means that less smoke is produced and the cooking compartment does not become as dirty.

Roasting in cookware

If you cover the cookware when you cook your food, this will keep the cooking compartment cleaner.

General information about roasting in cookware

• Use heat-resistant, ovenproof cookware.
• Place the cookware on the wire rack.

Roasting in uncovered cookware

• Use a deep roasting dish.
• If you do not have any suitable cookware, you can use the universal pan.

Roasting in covered cookware

• Use a suitable lid that seals well.
• When roasting meat, there should be at least 3 cm between the food and the lid. The meat may expand.

? WARNING – Risk of scalding!

• Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on the temperature.
• Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can escape away from you.
• Keep children away from the appliance.

Grilling

Grill food if you want it to be crispy. The "Grill" type of heating is good for cooking thinner pieces of poultry, meat and fish such as steaks, drumsticks and burgers. It is also excellent for toasting bread.

Circulated air grilling ♨️? is very well suited to cooking whole poultry and fish, as well as meat, e.g. roast pork with crackling.

• When grilling several food items, choose pieces that are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled food will brown evenly and will remain succulent and juicy.
• Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire rack.
• To catch any liquids that drip down, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at least one level below the wire rack.

Notes

• The grill element switches on and off continuously. This is normal. The grill setting that you use determines how frequently this occurs.
• Smoke may be produced when grilling.

26.4 Cooking instructions for ready meals

• The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of the food. Pre-browning and irregularities may already be present in the food before cooking.
• Do not use frozen products that are covered with a thick layer of ice. Remove any ice on the food.
• Take ready meals out of the packaging.
• If you are warming or cooking the ready meal in cookware, make sure that the cookware is heat-resistant.
• Distribute foods that are in the form of separate pieces, such as bread rolls and potato products, so that they are spread out flat and evenly on the accessory. Leave a little space between the individual pieces.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.

26.5 List of foods

Recommended settings for a variety of foods, sorted into food categories.

Recommended settings for various types of food
