Important Safety Instructions
m
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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. If a rack must be
moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
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 operation
of the appliance 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

Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: The California Safe Drinking and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The burning of gas cooking fuel and the elimination of soil during self-cleaning can
generate small amounts of Carbon Monoxide. The fiberglass insulation in self-clean
ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning
cycles. California lists formaldehyde as a potential cause of cancer. Carbon
Monoxide is a potential cause of reproductive toxicity. Exposure to these
substances can be minimized by:
1. Providing good ventilation when cooking with gas.
2. Providing good ventilation during and immediately after self-cleaning the oven.
3. Operating the unit according to the instructions in this manual.
When self-cleaning, confirm that the door locks and will not open. If the door does
not lock, do not run Self-Clean. Contact service.
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
Birds have very sensitive respiratory systems . Keep pet birds out of the kitchen or
other rooms where kitchen fumes could reach them. During self-clean, fumes are
released that may be harmful to birds. Other kitchen fumes such as overheating
margarines and cooking oils may also be harmful.
Keep oven free from grease build up.
Cookware Safety Do not place food directly on oven bottom.
Follow the manufacturer's directions when using cooking or roasting bags.
Do not clean parts or accessories in the self-clean oven.

Cooling Fan The cooling fan runs during all cooking modes. The fan can be heard when it is
running, and warm air may be felt as it is released from the oven vent. The fan may
also run after the oven is off.
Oven Vent The oven vent is located at the bottom of the unit. Warm air may be released from
the vent before, during and after cooking. It is normal to see steam escaping from
the vent, and condensation may collect in this area. This area may be warm when
the oven is in use. Do not block the vent, since it is important for air circulation.
Oven Bottom The oven bottom conceals the lower heating element. As a result the element is
protected from damage and spills.

Operation
About the Appliance
Your new oven combines premium cooking results and simple operation.
The oven design has been optimized to improve heat distribution in the oven cavity.
The result is even browning, shorter cooking times and lower energy consumption.
Thanks to Self-Clean mode, hours of scrubbing into the darkest corners of the oven
is a thing of the past. The oven burns off soil simply and easily. All that is left to do is
to remove a few ashes from the oven when Self-Clean is done.
Clear labeling of the touch keys and knobs make operating the oven very easy. This
manual includes all instructions for operating the oven.
Please call us if you ever have any questions. Our telephone number is located at
the beginning of this manual. We welcome your comments and suggestions!

Getting the Most Out of Your Appliance
General Tips
Pan Placement
Aluminum Foil
Preheating the Oven
For Best Results
Baking Pans and Dishes
Baking results are better if pans are placed in the center of the oven. If baking more
than one pan on a rack, allow at least 1" to 1 ½" of air space around the pan. When
baking four cake layers at the same time, stagger pans on two racks so that one pan
is not directly above the other.
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any part of the appliance,
especially the oven bottom. Installing these liners may result in risk of electric shock
or fire.
Place oven racks in desired position before heating the oven.
Preheat the oven when using the Bake, Broil, and Warm modes.
Allow oven to preheat while preparing recipe ingredients or food items.
Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time.
Once oven is preheated, place food in the oven as quickly as possible to
minimize the loss of heat and reduction of oven temperature.
Use the cooking recommendations as a guide.
Open the door as briefly as possible to avoid temperature reduction.
Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven window rather than
opening the door frequently.
Use the Timer to keep track of cooking times.
Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Follow manufacturers' recommendations.
Use pans that provide the desired browning. For tender, light, golden-brown
crusts, use light, shiny, metal bakeware.
Dark, rough or dull pans (nonstick or anodized) will absorb heat and result in a
browner, crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommend reducing the
temperature 25 ºF when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturers'
recommendations.
Insulated cookie sheets or bakeware may increase the length of cooking time.
Do not set broil pans or any other heavy object on the open oven door.
Do not keep the empty broil pan in the oven during cooking as this could change
the cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside the oven.
High Altitude Baking
Condensation
English 16
When cooking at high altitudes, recipes and cooking times will vary.
For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado State
University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a cost for the guides.
Specify which high altitude food preparation guide you prefer: general
information, cakes, cookies, breads, etc.
It is normal for a certain amount of moisture to evaporate from the food during
any cooking process. The amount depends on the moisture content of the food.
The moisture may condense on any surface cooler than the inside of the oven,
such as the control panel.
Bake
t
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to
casseroles. Refer to recipe or package directions for oven temperature and baking
time.
Tips Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.
Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal
pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated
bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.
For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1–1
pans or dishes and oven walls.
Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check
food for doneness instead of opening the door.
If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cakes, use rack
positions 3 and 5. For cookies, use rack positions 1 and 4. Stagger pans so that
one is not directly above the other (see graphic below).
27” appliances: 30” appliances:

Roast is best suited for large cuts of meat and poultry.
Tips: Use a high-sided broil pan, or cover dish with a lid or foil.
Use a meat thermometer to determine the internal temperature of the meat.
If the meat is browned to your liking, but is not yet done, a small strip of foil can
be placed over the meat to prevent overbrowning.
Let meat stand covered with foil 10–15 minutes after removing it from the oven.
Roasting bags are suitable for use in this mode.
When roasting whole chicken or turkey, tuck wings behind back and loosely tie
legs with kitchen string.
Add liquids, such as water, juice, wine, bouillon or stock for flavor and moisture.

poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil
with the door closed. The benefits of broiling include:
Fast and efficient cooking.
Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.
Tips: Preheat oven 3–4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.
Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.
Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven.
Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away
from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats once during the recommended cook time (see Broil Chart for
examples).
When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as
Corningware ®.
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex ®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.

Broil uses intense heat radiated from the upper element.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning
Self-Clean
During Self-Clean, the oven is heated to a very high temperature. Soil is burned off
at this temperature.
IMPORTANT:
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the oven.
IMPORTANT:
Do not clean parts or accessories in the Self-Clean oven.
To set the self-clean mode:
1. Remove all accessories and racks from the oven.
2. Turn the Heating Mode Dial to Self Clean. "Self Clean", "Cook Time" and the corresponding arrow appear in the display:
Cook
Time
Self
Clean
Cook
Time
Avoid These Cleaners
3. Turn the settings dial to set the cleaning time. Select 2:30 hours for a heavily soiled oven. Select 1:30 hours for a lightly soiled oven.
Self-Clean starts after a few seconds. The arrow next to Cook Time disappears
and the oven door is locked.
To cancel Self-Clean, turn Cooking Mode Dial to "Off".
Once the oven is cool, "Self Clean" disappears and the arrow next to Cook Time
reappears. The oven door is unlocked when “End” appears in the display.
Wipe remaining ash from the oven using a moist cloth.
Note: The oven light cannot be turned on during self-cleaning.
The special heat-resistant enamel and the polished components in the oven can
become discolored over time. This is normal and does not affect operation. Do
not use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners to treat discolorations.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may damage the
oven finish or parts.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
English 20
Cleaning Guide
Part Recommendations
Broil Pan and Grid Wash with hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and
dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or soapfilled pads as directed. DO NOT clean broil pan
and grid in the self-cleaning oven.
Flat Rack Wash with hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and
dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or soapfilled pads as directed. DO NOT clean the rack in
the self-cleaning oven.
If flat racks are cleaned in the oven during the self
clean mode, they will loose their shiny finish and
may not glide smoothly. If this happens wipe the
rack edges with a small amount of vegetable oil.
Then wipe off excess.
Fiberglass Gasket DO NOT CLEAN GASKET.
Glass Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Use
Fantastik® or Formula 409® to remove grease
spatters and stubborn stains.
Painted Surfaces Clean with hot soapy water or apply Fantastik®
or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper
towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder
cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven
cleaners.
Porcelain Surfaces Immediately wipe up acid spills like fruit juice,
milk and tomatoes with a dry cloth. Do not use a
moistened sponge/cloth on hot porcelain. When
cool, clean with hot soapy water or apply BonAmi® or Soft Scrub® to a damp sponge. Rinse
and dry. For stubborn stains, use soap-filled
pads. It is normal for porcelain to show fine lines
with age due to exposure to heat and food soil.
Stainless Steel Surfaces Always wipe or rub in the direction of the grain.
Clean with a soapy sponge, then rinse and dry, or
wipe with Fantastik® or Formula 409® sprayed
on a paper towel. Protect and polish with
Stainless Steel Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove
water spots with a cloth dampened with white
vinegar. Use Bar Keeper's Friend® to remove
heat discoloration.
Plastic & Controls When cool, clean with soapy water, rinse and dry.
Printed areas (words and
numbers)
Do not use abrasive cleansers.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to
How Long the Warranty Lasts
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances Bosch in this Statement of
Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance 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.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate
warranty coverage, it is the best way for Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of
a safety notice or product recall.
Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship
for a period of twelve (12) months 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.
During this warranty period, Bosch 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 Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded models may be
available to you, in Bosch's sole discretion, for an additional charge). All removed
parts and components shall become the property of Bosch 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. Bosch's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair
manufacturer-defective Product only, using a Bosch-authorized service provider
during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, Bosch
highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an
un-authorized servicer; Bosch 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 Bosch products,
and who possess, in Bosch'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 Bosch). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Bosch 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, Bosch 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
English 26
Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any
concessions, including repairs, pro-rates, or Product replacement, once this
warranty has expired.
