General Oven Tips

Suggestions for Use

Use the cooking charts as a guide.

Do not set pans on an open oven door.

Use the interior oven light to view the food through the oven door window rather than opening the door frequently.

Place pans in center of oven.

Advantages of Convection Cooking

Even baking.

Juices and fl avors are sealed in.

Air-leavened foods such as cream puffs, souffl es, meringues and yeast breads are higher and lighter.

Multiple rack cooking with no fl avor transfer.

No special bakeware required.

Broiling thicker cuts of meat is possible with convection broil.

Saves time and energy.

About Convection Cooking*

Standard cooking modes (bake, broil, etc.) use heat radiated from one or more elements to cook food. Convection modes use both heat from the elements and a fan in the back of the oven to continuously circulate the heated air throughout the oven.

The result is faster, more even cooking. Convection modes seal in natural moisture and fl avors and can also save time and energy since most foods can be cooked at lower temperatures and in less time (never reduce temperature when cooking meat).

Cook time is also reduced because multiple racks can be used at one time. Cook several sheets of cookies or several different dishes at the same time.

The oven also uses convection to dehydrate. The low heat from the elements is circulated through the oven by the convection fan to slowly remove moisture.

Refer to “Oven Modes” in this manual for further information on each convection mode.

Preheating the Oven

Preheat the oven when using the bake and convection bake modes unless the recipe recommends otherwise.

Use fast preheat mode to shorten preheat time.

Selecting a higher temperature does not shorten the preheat time.

Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastries and breads.

Place oven racks in their proper position before preheating.

During preheat, the selected cooking temperature

is displayed.

A beep will confi rm that the oven is preheated and the preheat light will turn off.

When operating on 208 V, preheat time may be slightly longer.

Bakeware

Glass baking dishes absorb heat. Reduce oven temperature 25° F when baking in glass

Use pans that give the desired browning. The type of fi nish on the pan will help determine the amount of browning that will occur.

Shiny, smooth metal or light nonstick/anodized pans refl ect heat, resulting in lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and cookies require this type of bakeware.

Dark, rough or dull pans will absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.

For brown, crisp crusts, use dark nonstick/anodized or dark, dull metal utensils or glass bakeware

Insulated baking pans may increase the length of cooking time.

Do not cook with the empty broiler pan in the oven as this could change cooking performance. Store the broil pan outside of the oven.

Use baking sheets that are 19”x14” or smaller for best results.

Oven Operation Overview:

Oven the Operating

Operation of the oven is through knobs and command buttons on the control panel.

Single oven models have one mode knob. Double oven models have two mode knobs (one for each oven).

Single oven models have one temperature knob. Double oven models have two temperature knobs.

*HBL503 models do not have convection features.

The command buttons allow you to set the clock, the timer, the cook time (for timed and delayed cooking), the stop time (for delayed cooking) the oven lights and the child safety lock.

See the Control Panel/Display and Oven Operation sections for further details.

General Oven Tips

Condensation

The oven vent is located above the oven door. It is normal to see steam escaping from the vent and condensation may collect on areas above the vent such as the display.

Temperature Sensor

Your new oven has an electronic temperature sensor that accurately maintains the temperature selected. Your previous oven may have had a mechanical thermostat that drifted gradually to a higher temperature. As a result, you may need to adjust your favorite recipes when cooking in your new oven.

High Altitude Baking

When cooking at high altitude, recipes and cooking time will vary from the standard. For accurate information, write the Extension Service, Colorado

State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80521. There may be a charge for the bulletins.

CAUTION

Many factors affect cooking performance.

Always check food for doneness before serving

Figure 8: Bake

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.

For Best Results

When baking on two or more racks, use convection bake instead.

*The convection bake temperature is 25° F less than recommended on packages or recipes. The tem perature in this chart has been reduced 25° F.

**This chart is a guide. Actual times depend on the mixes or recipes baked. Follow recipe or package directions and reduce temperature appropriately.

***When convection baking on two racks, use posi tions one and three. When using three racks, use positions two, three and four.

Figure 9: Convection Bake

The convection bake mode is well-suited for baking large quantities of food on multiple racks. It can be used to prepare cookies, pastries, breads, snack foods and appetizers among other items. DO NOT use convection bake for meats. Use convection roast instead.

The benefi ts of convection baking include

Slight decrease in cooking time Three rack cooking

Higher volume (yeast items rise higher) More items cooked 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.

Do not use convection bake for custards, quiches, pumpkin pie, or cheesecakes. These items do not benefi t from the convection-heating process. Use

standard bake instead.

The broil mode is best suited to cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1” or less), poultry and fi sh. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles.

The benefi ts of Broiling include Fast and effi cient cooking.

Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids. Browning as the food cooks.

For Best Results

Do not preheat oven.

Steaks and chops should be at least 3/4” thick.

Brush fi sh and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

Use the broil pan and grid included with your oven.

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 recommend ed 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®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.

ALWAYS BROIL WITH THE DOOR CLOSED

Table 3: Broil Chart

Figure 11: Convection Broil

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

The benefi ts of Convection Broiling, in addition to the benefi ts of standard broiling, include

Faster cooking than standard Broiling.

For Best Results

Do not preheat oven.

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

Turn meats once halfway through the cooking time (See Convection Broil Chart for examples).

The convection roast mode is well suited to preparing tender cuts of meat and poultry.

The benefi ts 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 oven for roasting. A low-sided, uncovered pan can also be used.

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 from the oven.

*Roasting times are approximate and may vary depending on the shape of the meat. They are based on thawed meats.

**Stuffed turkey requires additional roasting time. The minimum safe temperature for stuffi ng in poultry is 165° F

Dehydrate

Table 6: Dehydrate Chart

 

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

Figure 13: Dehydrate

Dehydrating is used to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs. This mode holds an optimum low temperature (120° F - 160° F) while circulating the heated air to slowly remove moisture.

For Best Results

Dry herbs at 120° F. Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140° 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 Offi ce or library for additional information.

Oven will stay on for 48 hours before shutting off automatically.

Self-Cleaning

During self-clean, the oven uses a very high temperature to burn away food soil and grease.

As a safety feature, the oven door locks during self-clean to protect from very high temperatures. Do not try to open the oven during self-clean mode.

Only one oven can be self-cleaned at a time. The second oven can be used while the other is selfcleaning.

It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional

fl ame-up during the self-clean mode, depending on the content and amount of soil remaining in the oven. If a fl ame persists, turn off the oven and allow it to cool before opening the door to wipe up the excessive food soil.

The oven light does not operate when the oven is in the self-clean mode.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners as they may damage fi nish or parts.

Heat and odors are normal during the self-clean cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated.

Before You Self-Clean

1.Hand clean the oven door edge, window, oven front frame and oven cavity edges (see fi gures below). They do not get hot enough during the cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use a soapy sponge, plastic scrubber or S.O.S.® pad. DO NOT

RUB THE GASKET.

2 . Wipe up large overspills and grease with paper towels.

3.Remove broiler pan, all utensils and bakeware.

4.Remove oven racks. If the oven racks are left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, they will lose their shiny fi nish and will not glide smoothly in the

rack guides. See “Cleaning Oven Surfaces, page 15 for proper care .

5.Be sure the light is turned off on the control panel and the bulb and glass cover are in place.

After Self-Clean

The self-clean mode may produce ash which will settle in the oven. If this happens, remove ash with a damp cloth before using the oven.

Wipe rack edges with cooking oil to allow for proper glide. Wipe off excess.
