WARNING

When properly cared for, your new Bosch range has been designed to be a safe, reliable appliance. Read all instructions carefully before using this range. These precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons. Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Food splatter or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken control panel and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass control panel become broken. When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions must be followed, including those in the following pages.

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 elimination of soil during self-cleaning generates some by-products which are on the list.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde during the first several cleaning cycles.

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.

The Bosch range referred to thoughout this manual is manufactured by BSH Home Appliance Corp.

Cooktop Features

Before Using the Cooktop

• Remove all packing materials and labels from the cooktop surface.

• While cool, wipe with a clean, damp sponge and dry.

• Apply the Cooktop Cleaning Creme packaged with the range. Buff with a clean cloth. See Care and Cleaning Section.

• Ther e may be a slight odor during the first several uses; this is normal and will disappear.

• Optimum cooking results depend on the proper cookware being selected and used.

• The cooking surface will hold the heat and remain hot up to 30 minutes after the elements have been turned off.

• Read and understand all safety precautions and Use and Care Manual information prior to operating.

Precautions for Long Life and Good Appearance of the Surface

• Regular , daily care using the Cooktop Cleaning Cr eme will protect the surface and make it easier to remove food soil and water spots.

• The ceramic glass cooking surface is a durable material resistant to impact but not unbreakable if a pan or other object is dropped on it.

• Never cook food directly on the glass.

• Avoid placing a wok support ring, trivet or other metal stand on the glass surface.

• Do not use the glass surface as a cutting board.

• Do not slide cookware across the cooking surface; it may scratch the glass.

• Do not place wet pans on the glass surface.

Retained Heat

The glass cooking surface retains heat and stays hot after the element(s) have been turned off . The retained heat may be used to hold foods at serving temperatures for a short time. If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working or cleaning around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.

Temperature Limiters

Each radiant heating element has its own sensor to protect the glass cooking surface from extreme high temperatures. The limiters will operate automatically by cycling the element off regardless of the cook setting. Although cycling is normal, any one of the following conditions can activate the limiter and cause it to cycle on and off more than usual:

• The base of the pan is not making full contact with the

heating surface (due to a warped or uneven base).

• The pan is too small for the size of the element.

• The pan has boiled dry.

• The material or shape of the pan is slow to transfer the

heat.

Radiant Elements

Bosch UltraSpeedTM radiant elements use a wire ribbon located under the ceramic glass surface to provide the heat for cooking. These radiant elements will cycle on and off by design (see

T emperature Limiters

from 9 (high) to 1 (low) and a special setting for keep w arm.

at left.) There are 9 heat setting positions

Dual Element

The dual element consists of two radiant ribbon elements within the same heating area. Either the small inner element or both the inner and outer elements may be selected for use, depending on the size of cookware.

Triple Element (Some Models)

The T riple Element, located in the left front position, consists of three radiant ribbon elements within the same heating area, one, two or three elements can be selected.

• Defaults to largest element.

• Touch POT SIZING once for medium size.

• Touch POT SIZING twice for small size.

Oven Features

Oven Racks

Your ov en has three racks: 2 flat and one telescopic or three flat. They are designed with a stop so they will stop before coming completely out and not tilt.

CAUTION: TO AVOID POSSIBLE BURNS, PLACE

OVEN RACKS IN DESIRED POSITIONS BEFORE TURNING THE OVEN ON. ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS WHEN THE OVEN IS WARM. Removing from oven: Grasp rack firmly on both sides and

pull rack toward you. When the stop is reached, tilt rack up and pull the rest of the way out. Replacing in oven: Grasp rack firmly on both sides. Tilt rack up to allow stop into rack holder . Bring rack to a horizontal position and push the rest of the way in. Rack should be straight and flat, not crooked. Telescopic Rack: The telescopic rack allows for easier access to cooking food. To use, pull out both sections first. When stop is reached, pull out top section until stop is reached. To remove telescopic rack, with top section in closed position, grasp entire rack (both sections) firmly on both sides. When the stop is reached, tilt rack up and pull the rest of the way out.

Rack Position

(see graphic at right for further details) RACK 6 (highest position) – Use for melting cheese, broiling thin foods

RACK 5 – Use for broiling most meats, toasting bread RACK 4 – Use for broiling thicker meats RACK 3 – Use for most baked goods when baking on one

rack, such as on a cookie sheet or baking pan, cakes, frozen convenience foods, biscuits, brownies, muffins RACK 2 – Used for pies, casseroles, breads, bundt or pound cakes, small roasts or poultry, RACK 1 (lowest position) – Use for angel food cake, large roasts, turkey.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. When using the probe preheating is not recommended. Setting a higher temperature does not shorten preheat time. Place oven racks in proper position before preheating. A beep will confirm that the oven is preheated and the selected oven temperature will be displayed.

Pan Placement

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, place pans on two racks so that one pan is not directly above the other . Do not place f ood directly on oven bottom.

Baking Pans

Glass baking dishes absorb heat, therefore reduce oven temperature 25°F when baking in glass. Shiny, smooth metal reflects heat resulting in lighter, more delicate browning. Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in browner , crisper crust. Some manufacturers recommended reducing temperature 25° F when using this type of pan. Follow manufacturer recommendations. Use glass or dark metal pans for pies. Insulated baking pans may increase the length of the recommended baking time.

Rack Position

6 5 4 3

2 1

Multiple Rack Cooking

When using multiple racks, follow the placement recommendations below. Two rack: Use rack positions 2 and 5. The rack in position 2 can be telescopic if desired.

T o allow for best baking results for cakes, place items on back of upper rack and front of lower rack (see graphic at right).

Three rack: (for convection bake): Use positions 1, 3 and 6. The rack in position 3 can be telescopic if desired.

Preheating

Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.

Oven Modes - Bake and Convection Bake

BAKE, PROOF (some models) and WARM

Baking is cooking with dry , heated air. Both the upper and

lower element cycle to maintain the oven temperature:

The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food items, from pastries to casseroles. It can also be used to roast meats.

In the Warming mode, the oven uses the upper and lower element to maintain a low temperature to keep food at serving temperature.

• Use the Warming setting on the ov en to k eep foods hot

until ready to serve.

• The Warming mode temperatur es are 140° - 220° F . The

default temperature is 170°.

• Foods that need to be kept moist should be covered with

a lid or aluminum foil.

In the Proofing mode, the oven will use the upper and lower element to maintain a low temperature to proof bread. Proofing is the rising of a yeast dough.

• The Proofing mode temeratures are 85° to 105° F. The

default temperature is 100°.

• Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that

accomodates the size of the container.

• Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check

the rising of the dough.

CONVECTION BAKE

Convection Baking is similar to Baking. In this case, heat

comes from the lower heating element and a third element behind the backwall. The main difference in convection baking is that the heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan:

The Convection Bake mode is well-suited for baking large quantities of food on multiple racks. It can be used to prepare cookies, pies, cupcakes, pastries, breads, snack foods and appetizers among other items.

The benefits of Convection Baking include:

• Slight decrease in cooking time

• Three rack cooking (more even browning)

• Higher Volume (yeast items rise higher)

• Cook more items at once

For Best Results:

• Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F. Refer to the

Convection Baking chart for examples.

• Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as cookie

sheets without sides.

• Center baking pans side to side on the oven rack.

Oven Modes - Broil and Convection Broil

BROIL

Broiling uses intense heat radiated from the upper element:

The Broil mode is best suited to cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1” or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. The benefits of Broiling include:

• Fast and efficient cooking

• Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids

• Browning as the food cooks

For Best Results:

• Preheat oven 3-4 minutes

• Steaks and Chops should be at least 3/4” thick

• Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking

• Use the broil pan and grid included with your range

• Do not cover the broiler grid with foil. It is designed to

drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering

• Turn meats once halfway through the recommended

cooking 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®); they cannot tolerate the high temperature.

CONVECTION BROIL

Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines the intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by the convection fan:

The Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thicker, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is typically not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods.

The benefits of Convection Broiling, in addition to the benefits of standard broiling, include:

• Faster cooking than standard Broiling

For Best Results:

• Preheat oven 3-4 minutes

• Meats should be at least 1 1/2” thick

• T urn meats once halfwa y through the cooking time (See

Convection Broil Chart for examples)

• Use the broil pan and grid included with your range

• Do not cover the broiler grid with foil. It is designed to

drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering

• Salt after cooking

Oven Modes -Convection Roast

CONVECTION ROAST

Convection Roast uses heat from the top and bottom elements as well as heat circulated by the convection fan:

The Convection Roast mode is well suited to preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.

The benefits of Convection Roasting, include:

• As much as 25% faster cooking than standard Roasting/

Baking

• Rich, golden browning

For Best Results:

• Use the same temperature as indicated in the recipe.

• Check doneness early as roasting time may decrease by

as much as 25%. Refer to Convection Roast Chart for examples.

• Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.

• Use the broil pan and grid provided with the range for

roasting. A low-sided, uncovered pan can also be used.

• Use the probe (some models) or 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 breast to prevent overbrowning.

• Let meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes after

removing from the oven.

DEHYDRATE

Oven Modes - Dehydrate

Dehydrate dries with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.

Dehydrating is used to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low temperature (100° F - 160° F) while circulating the heated air to slowly remove moisture.

For Best Results:

• Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140° F. Dry herbs at

100° F. (Refer to the Dehydrate Chart for examples).

• Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar

content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air . Check food at the minimum drying time.

• Multiple racks can be used simultaneously . Contact your

Bosch dealer for drying racks.

• Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.

• Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative

Extension Office or library for additional information.

The door must be open during the Dehydrate mode.

Prop the door open at least 1" by placing an object (i.e.;

wooden spoon) in the upper corner between the door and the side panel. Becareful that the object does not touch the oven gasket.

Using the Probe (some models)

• The probe can be used to determine the internal doneness or the “END” temperature of many foods, especially meats and poultry.

• The temperatur e range for the probe is 135°F to 200°F (57°C to 93°C).

• Preheating the oven is not recommended when using the probe. A hot oven will impair your ability to easily connect the probe to the receptacle and into the meat.

• Oven temperature can be set for 100°F up to 450°F (38°C up to 232°C).

INSERTING THE PROBE

Insert the probe tip into the food item.

• For meats, insert the probe tip into the thickest part and not touch bone, fat, or gristle.

• For large poultry products and turkeys, insert the probe in the thickest part of the inner thigh.

• For other foods, such as a meatloaf, the probe tip should be located in the center of the thickest part of the food.

USING THE PROBE

1. Prepare meat and place in roasting pan (or on rack in roasting pan as recipe specifies). Insert the probe into the meat (See “Inserting the Probe”, above).

2. Make sure the probe is not touching gristle, fat, bone, the roast rack or the pan.

3. Place roasting pan with meat in cold oven on recommended oven rack. Plug probe into the probe receptacle. The probe symbol will appear in display.

• To change only the oven temperature, touch

TEMPERATURE. OVEN TEMP will flash in the display . Turn the knob to desired temperature and press START

twice.

• To change the probe temperature, touch

TEMPERATURE. The oven temperature will flash. Press STARTand the PROBE TEMP will flash. Turn

the knob to desired temperature and press START again.

PROBE USE TIPS

• The oven is well insulated and the retained heat will continue to cook the meat after the oven has shut off. For this reason, remove the meat from the oven as soon as the control beeps.

• Since meat continues to cook after being removed from the oven, set the internal (probe) temperature 5

- 10 degrees below the desired final internal temperature. Allow “standing time” (10 - 20 minutes) before carving the meat.

• Always use the handle of the probe for inserting and removing. Use a potholder to remove since the probe becomes hot.

• Remove the probe from the oven when it is not being used.

• The probe cannot be used with frozen meats. For

best results, completely thaw meats before using the probe.

Note: The probe temperature can only be set when the probe is installed in the oven.

4. Touch COOKING MODE and select BAKE, CONVECTION BAKE or CONVECTION ROAST. The

default oven temperature will appear.

5. Turn knob to change temperature if necessary.

6. Touch START.

7. Turn knob to set the probe temperature (desired end temperature of the food.

8. Touch START.

• The chosen oven temper ature is display ed in the upper right hand corner of the display.

• The probe temperature is displayed in the center to the

left of the cooking mode. It increases in 5°F

increments until the chosen temperature is reached.

• The oven is preheated when the beep signals once.

• When the set probe temperature is reached, END appears in display and oven turns off.

Note: Always remove probe from oven when cooking is

complete. The probe symbol will remain in the display until the probe is removed. Do not leave probe attachment in ov en during self-clean. Oven will not self-clean with the probe installed in the oven.

Care and Cleaning - Glass Cooktop

Before Use Care

Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. F or example, apply a small amount of Cooktop Cleaning Creme (packaged with range) on a daily basis. This provides a protective film that makes it easy to remov e water spots or food spatters. The temperature of the cooking surface reduces the protective qualities of this cleaner. It must be reapplied before each use. Use a clean cloth and apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme before each use to remove dust or metal marks that can occur on the counter level surface between uses.

Daily Cleaning Techniques

1. Clean the surface when it is completely cool with the

Cooktop Cleaning Crème. Exception: Remove Dry Sugar, Sugar Syrup, Tomato Products and Milk

scraper (See Care and Cleaning Chart, next page).

2. Wipe off spatters with a clean, damp sponge or paper

towel. Rinse and dry. Use white vinegar if smudge remains; rinse.

3. Apply a small amount of the Cooktop Cleaning

Cream. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper towel

or cloth.

immediately

with the razor blade

Do Not Use the Following Cleaners

• Glass cleaners which contain ammonia or chlorine

bleach. These ingredients may permanently etch or stain

the cooktop.

• Caustic Cleaners

Oven cleaners such as Easy Off® may etch the cooktop surface.

• Abrasive Cleaners

Metal scouring pads and scrub sponges such as Scotch

Brite® can scratch and / or leave metal marks. Soap-filled scouring pads such as SOS® can scratch the surface. Powdery cleaners containing chlorine bleach can permanently stain the cooktop.

Flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40.

CAUTION

Do not use any kind of cleaner on the glass while the surface

is hot; use only the razor blade scraper. The resulting fumes can be hazardous to your health. Heating the cleaner can chemically attack and damage the surface.

Cleaning the Dial

Remove from cooktop. Wipe with hot, soapy cloth, rinse and dry . The dial can also be w ashed in the dishwasher. Do not

soak or wash in dishwasher.

Using the Razor Blade Scraper

Use the scraper to remove dried or baked on foods. Hold the scraper at a 45° angle. Move it over the soil to lift it off of the cooktop. Finish with a clean, damp sponge or paper towel. Apply vinegar if smudge remains and rinse.

Page 23

Page 27

Care and Cleaning - Glass Cooktop

Cooktop Care Chart

TYPE OF SOIL

Dry sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted plastic film or foil. All these items REQUIRE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL. Remove only these types of spills while the surface is hot using the razor blade scraper.

Be sure to use a new, sharp razor in your scraper.

Burned-on food soil, dark streaks, and specks

Greasy spatters

Metal marks: Iridescent stain

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Failure to remove these soils immediately can permanently damage the surface.

• Remove pan and turn off the element.

• W earing an oven mitt, hold scraper at 30o angle, using care not to gouge or scratch the glass. Push soil off the heated area.

• After the surface has cooled, r emov e the r esidue and apply the Cooktop Cleaning Creme.

• Soften by laying a damp paper towel or sponge on top of soil for about 30 minutes.

• Use a plastic scrubber and Cooktop Cleaning Creme or use the razor blade scraper. Rinse and dry.

• Use a soapy sponge or cloth to remove grease; rinse thoroughly and dry. Apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme.

• Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel bases may leave marks. T reat immediately , after surf ace has cooled, with the Cooktop Cleaning Creme. If this does not remove the metal marks, try a mild abrasive (Bon Ami®, Soft Scrub® without bleach) with a dampened paper towel. Rinse and reapply creme.

Failure to remove metal marks before the next heating makes removal very difficult.

Hard water spots

Hot cooking liquids dripped on surface

Surface scratches

• The minerals in some water can be transferred onto the surface and cause stains. Use undiluted white vinegar, rinse and dry. Recondition with Cooktop Cleaning Creme.

Remove boilovers and stains, before using the cooktop again.

• Apply Cleaning Creme before using to remove sandlike grains and grit such as salt and seasoning.

• Can be reduced by using pans with bases that are smooth, clean, and dry before use. Use Cooktop Cleaning Creme daily on the cooktop.

Care and Cleaning - Oven

Self Cleaning the Oven

Bosch ovens feature a self-cleaning f unction that eliminates the manual labor involved with cleaning your oven. During self-cleaning, the oven uses a v ery high temperature to burn away food soil and grease.

• It is common to see smoke and/or an oc casional flameup during the Self-Clean cycle, depending on the content andamount of soil remaining in the oven. If a flame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.

• In the Self-Clean Mode, the door latch is automatically activated when the oven reaches 350° F. This ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at high clean temperatures.The door lock symbol will appear in the display at this point. The

door will not lock until the ovenreaches 450° F. When the lock symbol appears in the display, gently pull on the door to confirm that it is locked.

• The oven light does not operate during this mode.

• During Self-Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to help eliminate odors associated with Self-Clean. Odors will lessen with use.

• Four hours is the preset length of cleaning. The range can also be set to clean for 3 or 5 hours.

• The mode automatically stops at the end of the clean hours.

• When the oven heat r eturns to 350° F after cleaning, the automatic door lock will release and the door can be opened.

Preparing the Oven for Self Clean

1. Remove all utensils and bakeware.

2. Remove oven racks. If oven racks are left in the oven during the self-clean cycle, they will permanently lose the shiny finish and change to a dull dark finish. See Oven Cleaning Chart for proper care.

3. Wipe up any soft soil spills and grease with paper towels. Excess grease will cause flames and smoke inside the oven during self-cleaning.

4. Review illustration below . Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. Use a soapy sponge or plastic scrubber or a detergent-filled S.O.S. pad. Hand-clean the oven door edge, oven front frame and up to 1-1/2 inches inside the frame with detergent and hot water . Do not clean or rub the gasket on the oven. The gasket is designed to hold in heat during the selfclean cycle. Rinse all areas thoroughly then dry.

5. Be sure oven light is turned off and the light bulbs and lens covers are in place. Do not operate oven without

lightbulb and cover in place.

Commercial Oven Cleaners are not to be used on the self-clean oven or any part because they will damage the finish or part.

Cookware Selection Guide

Cookware Characteristics

The choice of pans directly affects the cooking speed and uniformity. For best results select pans with the following features:

Flat Bases - When a pan is hot, the base (pan bottom) should rest evenly on the surface without wobbling (rocking). Flat, medium-to-heavy-weight pans are best.

To Test the Flatness of Your Pans

T urn the pan upside down on the countertop and place a ruler flat against the bottom of the pan. The bottom of the pan and the straight edge of the ruler should be flush against each other. Another simple test to determine even heat distribution across the cookware bottom is to place 1” of water in the pan. Bring the water to a boil and observe the location of the bubbles as the water starts to boil. Good, flat cookware will have an even distribution of bubbles over the bottom surface area.

Matching Diameters – The base of the pan should cover or match the diameter of the element being used. Pans may overhang the element area by 1" all around.

Cookware Tips

• Use of pots and pans with rounded (either concave or convex) warped or dented bottoms should be avoided. See drawings below.

• Make sure the bottom of the pot or pan being used is clean and dry.

• Use pots and pans wi th thick, smooth metal bottoms.

• Do not slide metal pots across the cooktop. Pans may leave marks which need to be removed immediately. S ee Care and Cleaning Section.

• Do not use glass pans as they may scratch the surface.

Specialty Pans

Specialty pans such as griddles, roasters, pressure cookers, woks, water bath canners and pressure canners must have the same features as described above. Use only a flatbottomed wok. Never place a support ring, such as a wok ring or trivet, on the cooking surface.

Tight Fitting Lids – A lid shortens cooking time and water boils faster by holding the heat inside the pan. Specialty pans, such as griddles, roasters, pressure cookers, woks, water bath canners and pressure canners must have the same features as described above. (Use only a flatbottom wok.) Never place a support ring, such as a wok ring or trivet, on the cooking surface.

When oven racks are removed and replaced, always tilt racks upward and do not force them to avoid chipping the porcelain.

This is a fault code. If a “F” code flashes, press Off to clear the display and stop beeping. Reset oven if necessary. If fault code remains and beep continues, record fault code, cancel oven and call authorized servicer.

With a new range there is strong odor when oven is turned on

This is normal with a new range and will disappear after a few uses. Operating the self-clean cy cle will also “burnoff” the smell more quickly.
