ways wear oven gloves. WARNING Risk of fire!
Due to the hot surfaces, vapours from flammable liquids may catch fire in the
cooking compartment (explosion). The appliance door may spring open. Hot steam
and jets of flame may escape. Do not pour flammable liquids (e.g. alco-
holic drinks) into the water tank. Only fill the water tank with water or with
the descaling solution we have recommended.
1.6Cleaning function
WARNING Risk of burns! The outside of the appliance gets very hot when the
cleaning function is in progress. Never touch the appliance door. Allow the
appliance to cool down. Keep children at a safe distance.
2 Preventing material damage
2.1General
ATTENTION! Alcoholic vapours may catch fire in the hot cooking compartment and
cause permanent damage to the appliance. The appliance door may spring open
due to an explosion and it may fall off. The door panels may shatter and
fragment. Due to the resulting negative pressure, the cooking compartment may
become considerably deformed inwards. Do not heat spirits ( 15% vol.) when
undiluted (e.g.
for marinating or pouring over food).
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. Objects on the cooking compartment floor at over 50 °C
will cause heat to build up. The baking and roasting times will no longer be
correct and the enamel will be damaged. Do not place any accessories,
greaseproof paper or
foil of any kind on the cooking compartment floor. Only place cookware on the
cooking compartment
floor if a temperature under 50 °C has been set.

Environmental protection and saving energyen
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. The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion. Allow the cooking compartment to dry after
use. To
do this, open the cooking compartment door completely or use the drying
function. Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment for a long time
with the door closed. Do not store food in the cooking compartment. Take care
not to trap anything in the appliance door. Fruit juice dripping from the
baking tray leaves stains that cannot be removed. When baking very juicy fruit
flans, do not pack too much on the baking tray. If possible, use the deeper
universal pan. Using oven cleaner in a hot cooking compartment damages the
enamel. Never use oven cleaner in the cooking compartment when it is still
warm. Remove all food remnants from the cooking compartment and the appliance
door before you next heat up the appliance. If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. This may damage
the front of adjacent kitchen units. Keep the seal clean at all times. Never
operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or missing. Sitting or placing
objects on the appliance door may damage it. Do not place, hang or support
objects on the appliance door. Do not place cookware or accessories on the
appliance door. With certain models, accessories may scratch the door pane
when closing the appliance door. Always push accessories fully into the
cooking compartment. If aluminium foil comes into contact with the door pane,
it could cause permanent discolouration. Do not allow aluminium foil in the
cooking compartment to come into contact with the door pane.
2.2Steam
Follow these instructions when using the steam function. ATTENTION! Silicone
bakeware is not suitable for combined operation with steam. Cookware must be
heat- and steam-resistant. Using cookware with rust spots may cause corrosion
in the cooking compartment. Even the smallest spots of rust can cause
corrosion. Do not use cookware with rust spots. Dripping liquids make the
cooking compartment floor dirty. When steaming with a perforated cooking
container,
always place the baking tray, the universal pan or the unperforated cooking
container underneath. This will catch any liquid that drips down. Hot water in
the water tank may damage the steam system. Only fill the water tank with cold
water. 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. A lot of
steam is produced during operation with the types of steam heating. Condensate
that collects in the drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may
overflow and damage adjacent units. Do not open the appliance door, or open it
as infrequently as possible, while the appliance is in operation. If descaling
solution comes into contact with the control panel or other delicate surfaces,
it will damage them. Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
Cleaning the water tank in the dishwasher will damage it. Do not clean the
water tank in the dishwasher. Clean the water tank with a soft cloth and
standard washing-up liquid. If several steam operations are carried out one
after the other without wiping out the cooking compartment floor and the
condensate tray afterwards in each case, the water collected may overflow and
may damage furniture panels or bases. Wipe down the cooking compartment floor
and the condensate tray after every steam operation.
3 Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2Saving 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 37 ¡ Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%.
5
enFamiliarising yourself with your appliance
Use dark-coloured, black-coated or enamelled baking tins. ¡ These types of
baking tin absorb the heat particu-
larly well. Open the appliance door as little as possible during operation. ¡
This maintains the temperature in the cooking com-
partment 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
second cake. If the cooking time is relatively long, you can switch the
appliance off 10 minutes before the cooking time ends. ¡ There will be enough
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 re-
quired to defrost it. Switch off the display in the basic settings. “Basic
settings”, Page 21 ¡ Energy is saved when the display is switched off.
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

Self-cleaning surfaces The self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment
are coated with a porous, matt ceramic layer and have a rough surface. When
the appliance is in operation, the self-cleaning surfaces absorb splashes from
roasting or grilling and break them down. The following surfaces are self-
cleaning: ¡ Back wall ¡ Ceiling ¡ Side walls Use the cleaning function
regularly to help retain the cleaning ability of the self-cleaning surfaces
and prevent damage. “Cleaning function ‘EcoClean'”, Page 26 Lighting One or
more oven lights illuminate the cooking compartment. When you open the
appliance door, the light in the cooking compartment switches on. If the
appliance door remains open for longer than around 18 minutes, the light
switches off again. For most operating modes, the lighting is switched on
during operation. The lighting switches off again when the operation ends.
Cooling fan The cooling fan switches on and off depending on the appliance’s
temperature. The hot air escapes above the door. ATTENTION! Covering the
ventilation slots will cause the appliance to overheat. Do not cover the

What it’s used for and how it works
Cook selected dishes gently on one level without preheating. The fan
distributes the heat from the ring-shaped heating element in the back wall
evenly around the cooking compartment. The food is cooked in phases using
residual heat. Always keep the appliance door closed when cooking. This type
of heating is used to determine the energy consumption in air recirculation
mode and the energy efficiency class. Cook until crispy, on one level with
little fat. Especially suitable for food that is usually fried in oil, e.g.
chips. The fan circulates heat from the grill element around the food at high
speed. The exhaust air is extracted more intensively from of the cooking
compartment. Gently cook selected dishes. Heat is emitted from above and
below. This type of heating is used to measure the energy consumption in the
conventional mode. Roast poultry, whole fish or larger pieces of meat. The
grill element and the fan switch on and off alternately. The fan circulates
the hot air around the food. Grill flat items such as steak and sausages, or
make toast. Gratinate food. The entire area below the grill element becomes
hot.
Grill small quantities such as steak and sausages, or make toast. Gratinate
small quantities of food. The central area below the grill element becomes
hot.
Cook pizza or food that requires a lot of heat from below. The bottom heating
element and the ring-shaped heating element in the back wall heat the cooking
compartment. Slowly and gently cook seared, tender pieces of meat in uncovered
cookware. The heat is emitted evenly from above and below at a low
temperature. Final baking or cooking food in a bain marie. The heat is emitted
from below. Keep cooked food warm. Preheat cookware.

11.2Setting options with steam
There are various ways in which you can prepare your food with steam. Types of
steam heating A variety of types of steam heating are available for which hot
steam is used to gently prepare food. ATTENTION! A lot of steam is produced
during operation with the types of steam heating. Condensate that collects in
the drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may overflow and damage
adjacent units. Do not open the appliance door, or open it as infre-
quently as possible, while the appliance is in operation.
16
Steaming During steaming , the food is enveloped by hot steam, which helps to
retain the nutrients. This cooking method also helps to retain the shape,
colour and typical flavour of the food. When temperatures between 105 °C and
120 °C are set, the cooking time is reduced. This means that even more
nutrients and vitamins are retained when steaming.
Reheating The reheating function can be used to warm up food that has already
been cooked, or bread and pastries from the day before, without affecting
their quality.
Proving dough Dough proves considerably more quickly using the dough proving
steam heating type than at room temperature and does not dry out.
Defrost Use the defrost function to defrost deep-frozen and frozen products
gently without affecting the quality.
Added steam When you cook with added steam, the appliance introduces steam
into the cooking compartment at various intervals. This gives your food a
crispy crust and a shiny surface. Meat stays juicy and tender, and only
undergoes a minimum reduction in volume. You can combine added steam with the
following functions: ¡ Types of heating Page 13
4D hot air Top/bottom heating Circulated air grilling Keeping warm ¡

20 Descaling
Regular descaling is necessary to ensure that your appliance continues to
operate correctly. How frequently you need to run the descaling programme
depends on the water hardness and how many times you have used the steam-
assisted operations. The appliance indicates when only another 5 or fewer
steam-assisted operations are possible. If you do not carry out descaling, you
can no longer set any operation with steam. Descaling comprises several steps
and takes approximately 70 – 95 minutes: ¡ Descaling (approx. 55 – 70 minutes)
¡ First rinse cycle (approx. 8 – 12 minutes) ¡ Second rinse cycle (approx. 8 –
12 minutes) For reasons of hygiene, the descaling programme must be run in
full. If descaling is interrupted, you can no longer set any operation. To
ensure that the appliance is ready for operation again, carry out 2 rinse
cycles.

29 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
food preparation and corresponding adjustment values can be found in the Home
Connect app or on our website www.bosch-home.com.
29.1General 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.
29.2Baking 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 1.
¡ 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 You will obtain the best results if you use the following
shelf positions. If you are baking on one level, use shelf position 1.
Baking on 2 levels Universal pan Baking tray Baking tins/dishes on two wire racks
Height 3 1 3 1
1 Only applies to Great Britain 37
enHow it works
Use the 4D 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.
29.3Roasting, 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 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. ¡ Glass cookware is best. ¡
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your roast-
ing dishes. 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 es-
cape 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.
29.4Cooking tips for steaming
Cook your food gently. The food remains particularly succulent. In contrast to
cooking with added steam, the meat does not become crispy on the outside. ¡
Use uncovered, heat-resistant cookware that is suit-
able for cooking with steam. ¡ The perforated steaming tray, size XL, is the
best
option here. To catch any liquid that drips down, slide the universal pan into
the cooking compartment one level below. Alternatively, you can place a glass
dish onto the wire rack. ¡ Cover food that you would normally cook in a bain
marie with film, e.g. cling film. ¡ You do not need to turn the food. ¡ To
obtain a slightly different flavour, you can sear the meat, poultry or fish
before steaming. Reduce the cooking time. ¡ Larger food items require a longer
heat-up time and a longer cooking time. ¡ If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the appliance’s heat-up time is increased. The
cooking time remains the same. ¡ Open the door as infrequently as possible
during steaming. Wipe the condensate drip tray after preparation. If the
condensate drip tray overflows, this may cause damage to kitchen units. ¡ The
main part of the user manual contains information on how to configure the
steam settings. “Steam”, Page 16 Vegetables on several levels You can easily
cook more than one type of food or even whole menus, e.g. broccoli and
potatoes, on 2 levels. Page 41 Rice or cereal products ¡ Add water or liquid
in the specified ratio. For example, 1:1.5 means add 150 ml liquid for every
100 g rice.
38
29.5Cooking 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.
How it worksen ¡ 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.

Cooking whole menus with steam Recommended settings and further information
for cooking a whole menu at once.
Tips for cooking whole menus ¡ Use suitable accessories and ensure that you
place
them into the oven the right way round. Page 10
¡ Shelf positions: Steaming tray, size M: Shelf position 3 Steaming tray,
size XL: Shelf position 2 Universal pan: Shelf position 1
¡ Place the food with the longest cooking time into the cooking compartment
first. Add the rest of the food at the appropriate time. This means that all
the food will be ready at the same time.
¡ Follow the cooking instructions for each of the different foods. The heat-
up time varies depending on the size and weight of the food. The cooking
time is unaffected by the quantity of food. Use cookware that is steam-
resistant. Cover the soufflé with film, e.g. cling film. Always insert the
universal pan at level 1.
¡ The overall cooking time is extended when cooking whole meals with steam, as
a little steam escapes each time the appliance door is opened and the cooking
compartment has to be reheated.
¡ Wipe the cooking compartment and dry the condensate drip tray after using it
to cook the meal.

Air Fry Cook food with Air Fry until crispy and with little fat. Air Fry is particularly suitable for meals that are normally fried in oil.
Cooking tips for Air Fry Observe this information when cooking food with Air
Fry. ¡ Only one level can be used when cooking with Air
Fry.

How it worksen
¡ The Air Fry accessory makes food crispier. If the AirFry accessory is not
included with the appliance as standard, you can obtain the Air-Fry accessory
as an optional accessory.
¡ Do not preheat the oven. ¡ Do not use greaseproof paper. The air must circu-
late in the cooking compartment. ¡ Do not defrost frozen food. ¡ Cover the
Air-Fry accessory or the universal pan
evenly with the food. If possible, only distribute the food on the accessory
in a single layer.

Sterilisation and hygiene You can sterilise heat-resistant cookware or baby
bottles that are in perfect condition. The process is equivalent to normal
sterilisation by boiling.
Sterilising bottles 1. Clean the bottles with a bottle brush immediately
after use. 2. Wash the bottles in the dishwasher. 3. Place the bottles into
the steaming tray (size XL) in
such a way that they do not touch one another. 4. Start the “Sterilise”
programme. 5. Dry the bottles with a clean cloth. 6. Wipe down the appliance
interior after sterilising.

Proving dough Yeast dough proves more quickly in your appliance than at room
temperature and does not dry out. Requirement: The cooking compartment is
cold. 1. Slide the wire rack into the cooking compartment. 2. Place the dough
onto the wire rack in a bowl.
Do not cover the bowl.
¡ Insert the accessory into the cooking compartment at level 2. If you use the
Air Fry accessory, you can insert an empty universal pan at level 1 to protect
against dirt.
¡ Turn the food halfway through cooking. If you are cooking larger quantities,
turn the food twice.
Tip: Do not season the food until after you have cooked it. This makes the
food crispier. Breaded vegetables are also suitable for cooking with Air Fry.
To save fat, use a sprayer to spray the coating with oil. This forms a crispy
crust with little fat.
