9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a.
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
c.
DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Burn Prevention
DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, surfaces near these openings and oven doors.
Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes. Do not leave open doors unattended.
Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
Use caution when cooking foods with high alcohol content (e.g. rum, brandy, bourbon) in the oven. Alcohol evaporates at high temperatures. There is a risk of burning as the alcohol vapors may catch fire in the oven. Use only small quantities of alcohol in foods, and open the oven door carefully.
Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. Always use oven mitts, when the oven is warm. If a rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
CAUTION
To avoid possible injury or damage to the appliance, ensure rack is installed exactly per installation instructions and not backwards or upside down.
Always use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Secure all loose garments, etc. before beginning. Tie long hair so that it does not hang loose, and do not wear loose fitting clothing or hanging garments, such as ties, scarves, jewelry, or dangling sleeves.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.
CAUTION
Items of interest to children should not be stored in an appliance, in cabinets above an appliance or on the backsplash. Children climbing on an appliance to reach items could be seriously injured.

Causes of damage

NOTICES:
Accessories, foil, baking paper or cookware on the
bottom of the oven interior: do not place any accessories on the bottom of the oven interior. Do not line the bottom of the oven interior with any type of foil or baking paper. Do not place cookware on the bottom of the oven interior when a temperature above 122°F (50 °C) is set. This produces a build-up of heat. Baking and roasting times are no longer correct and the enamel is damaged.
Do not use the oven with the Roof Liner fitted in the
bottom of the cavity.
Water in the hot oven interior: Never pour water into
the hot oven interior. Steam is produced. Damage to the enamel can arise due to the temperature change.
Do not leave moist groceries in a closed oven for an
extended period of time. It can lead to corrosion inside the oven.
Fruit juice can leave stains in the oven. Always remove
fruit juice immediately and wipe up first with a damp and then a dry cloth. Cool oven first to avoid steam burns from wet dish cloth.
Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the
oven cavity to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance door is only open a little, front panels of adjacent units could be damaged over time.
Highly soiled door seal: the appliance door will no
longer close properly during operation if the door seal is highly soiled. Adjoining furniture fronts may be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.
Appliance door as a seat or storage surface: do not
stand, sit or hang on the appliance door. Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance
type, accessories can scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door. Always slide accessories fully into the oven interior.
Do not hold or carry the appliance by the door handle.
The door handle cannot carry the weight of the device and could break off.

Protecting the environment

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in line with environmental requirements.
Tips for saving energy
Open the appliance door as little as possible while
cooking, baking or roasting.
Use dark, black-painted or enameled baking forms.
These absorb the heat particularly well.
It is best to bake several cakes in succession. The
oven is still warm. This shortens the baking time for the second cake. You can also slide in two loaf tins next to each other.
In the hot air mode, you can bake simultaneously on
several levels.
For longer cooking times, you can switch off the oven
10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and you can use the residual heat to finish cooking.

allows you to complete the cooking of foods that require a higher bottom temperature, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.
Frozen Foods The combination of fan-assisted
cooking and traditional cooking allows different foods to be cooked on several levels extremely quickly and efficiently. Perfect for large vol­umes that call for intense cooking, useful not only for frozen, but also for fresh food.
Defrost Rapid defrosting is helped by switch-
ing on the fan provided and the top heating element that ensure uniform distribution of low temperature air inside the oven.
Conv Bake The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures uni­form cooking even with complex reci­pes. Perfect for every type of food, even when simultaneously cooked on several levels.
Conv Broil Plus The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by the broil element, broiling perfectly even very thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat.
Conv Multi-Rack The combination of the fan and the
circular element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same tempera­tures and same type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. For multi­ple level cooking we recommend using 2nd and 4th shelves.

Cleaning and maintenance

With good care and cleaning, your oven will remain clean and fully-functioning for a long time to come. Here we will explain how to maintain and clean your oven correctly.

Notes

Slight differences in the colors on the front of the oven
are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel that look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This
can cause some slight color variation. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enameled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti­corrosion protection.
9 WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK Moisture entering the appliance can cause an
electrical shock. Don't use a high-pressure cleaner or steam cleaner.

or cookware out of the cooking compartment.
Baking tips
How to tell whether sponge cake is baked through.
Approx. 10 minutes before the end of the baking time stated in the recipe, insert a toothpick into the cake at its deepest point. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
The cake collapses. Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 50°F (10°C) lower.
Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but is lower around the edge.
Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
The cake browns too much on top. Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a
little longer.
The cake is too dry. When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a toothpick. Then drizzle
fruit juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, set the temperature 50°F (10°C) higher and reduce the baking time.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheese­cake) looks good but is sticky on the inside (soggy with wet streaks).
Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower tempera­ture. For cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs and then place the topping on top. Please follow the recipe and baking times.
The cake is unevenly browned. Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more
evenly. Excess greaseproof paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always trim greaseproof paper to fit the baking tray.
The bottom of a cake topped with
Place the cake one level lower the next time.
fruit is too light. The fruit juice overflows. Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one. Small baked items made out of
yeast dough stick to one another
There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for the baked items to expand and turn brown on all sides.
during baking. Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.
Baking may create water vapor, which escapes above the door. The steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natural process.

Roasting and broiling
Cookware
You may use any heat-resistant cookware. Always place the cookware in the center of the wire rack. The enameled baking tray is also suitable for large roasts.
Roasting tips
A lower temperature results in more even browning.Depending on the size of the meat, add 2 or 3
tablespoons of liquid to lean meat and 8 to 10 tablespoons of liquid to pot roasts.
When cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the
underside of the wings to allow the fat to run out.
Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you
baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter, salted water or orange juice.
Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it
to rest for an additional 10 minutes. This will allow the meat juices to distribute themselves better inside the roast.
When roasting large pieces of meat, you may find that
the amount of steam and condensation on the oven door is more than usual. This is a normal occurrence that has no effect on the oven's performance. Once roasting is complete, dry the oven door and window with a cloth.
If you are roasting on the wire rack, insert the
enameled baking tray into shelf position 1 to collect the drips of fat.
Broiling tips
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are broiling
should be of equal thickness. They should be at least 1 inch thick. This will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent and juicy.
Place the food to be broiled in the center of the wire
rack. Pour a little water into the enameled baking tray and insert this into the shelf position underneath the broil element to collect the drips of fat. Never place it on the cooking compartment floor.
Drizzle some oil over the food to be broiled before you
place it on the wire rack under the broil element.
If the food to be broiled is thin, turn it over halfway
through broiling; if it is thick, turn it over several times during broiling. Use tongs when turning the food to avoid piercing it and, in the case of meat, to keep the meat juices inside the meat.
Dark meats such as lamb and beef brown better and
more quickly than light meats such as pork and veal.
Roasting tips
How can you tell when the roast is ready?
The roast is too dark and the crack­ling is partly burnt.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear and watery.
Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test.” Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready.If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
Check the shelf position and temperature.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances Corporations (“BSH“) in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance (“Product“) sold to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product was purchased:
For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes.
New at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously
returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use.
Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply only to the first purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.
BSH reserves the right to request proof of purchase at the time any warranty claim is submitted to confirm that the Product falls within the scope of this limited product warranty.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for BSH to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts
BSH warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the date of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chip, dents, or other damage to the finish of the Product), for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, “As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
During this warranty period, BSH or one of its authorized service providers will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then BSH will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in BSH’s sole discretion, for an additional charge). All removed parts and components shall become the property of BSH at its sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity
of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts. BSH's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a BSH-authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, BSH highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an un-authorized servicer; BSH will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone other than an authorized service provider work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on BSH products, and who possess, in BSH's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of BSH). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BSH will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, BSH would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Out of Warranty Product
BSH is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, pro­rates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
Warranty Exclusions

Use of the Product in anything other than its normal,
customary and intended manner (including without limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction with air or water-going vessels).

abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions, mishandling, unauthorized service (including self­performed "fixing" or exploration of the appliance's internal workings).
Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind.A failure to comply with any applicable state, local,
city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes, regulations, or laws, including failure to install the product in strict conformity with local fire and building codes and regulations.
