1.5Microwave CAREFULLY READ THE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND KEEP THEM
SAFE FOR FUTURE USE
WARNING Risk of fire! Using the appliance for anything other than its intended
purpose is dangerous and may cause damage. For example, heated slippers and
pillows filled with grain or cereal may catch fire, even several hours later.
Never dry food or clothing with the appli-
ance. Never heat up slippers, pillows filled with
grain or cereal, sponges, damp cleaning cloths or similar with the appliance.
The appliance must only be used to prepare food and drink. Food and its
packaging and containers may catch fire. Never heat food in heat-retaining
packaging. Do not leave food unattended while it is heating in containers made
of plastic, paper or other combustible materials. Never set the microwave
power too high or the cooking time too long. Follow the instructions provided
in this user manual. Never use the microwave to dry food. Never defrost or
heat food with a low water content, such as bread, at too high a microwave
power or for too long. Cooking oil may catch fire. Never use the microwave to
heat cooking oil on its own.
4
WARNING Risk of explosion! Liquids and other food may easily explode when in
containers that have been tightly sealed. Never heat liquids or other food in
contain-
ers that have been tightly sealed. WARNING Risk of burns!
Foods with peel or skin may burst or explode during heating, or even
afterwards. Never cook eggs in their shell or heat hard-
boiled eggs in their shell. Never cook shellfish or crustaceans. Always prick
the yolk of eggs before mi-
crowaving. The skin of foods that have a peel or skin,
such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and sausages, may burst. Before heating,
prick the peel or skin. Heat is not distributed evenly through baby food.
Never heat baby food in closed containers. Always remove the lid or teat. Stir
or shake well after heating. Check the temperature before giving the food or
drink to a child. Heated food gives off heat. The cookware may become hot.
Always use oven gloves to remove cookware or accessories from the cooking
compartment. Airtight packaging may burst when food is heated. Always follow
the instructions on the packaging. Always use oven gloves to remove the dishes
from the cooking compartment. The accessible parts of the appliance become hot
during operation. Never touch these hot parts. Keep children at a safe
distance. At the highest settings in microwave only mode, the drying function
will automatically switch on an additional heating element to heat the cooking
compartment. Never touch the inside surfaces of the cooking compartment or the
heating elements while they are hot. Keep children at a safe distance.
Safetyen
Using the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose is dangerous.
This is because, for instance, overheated slippers, pillows filled with grain
or cereal, sponges and damp cleaning cloths, etc., may cause burns to the
skin. Never dry food or clothing with the appli-
ance. Never heat up slippers, pillows filled with
grain or cereal, sponges, damp cleaning cloths or similar with the appliance.
The appliance must only be used to prepare food and drink.
WARNING Risk of scalding! There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a
liquid is heated. This means that the liquid reaches the boiling temperature
without the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Exercise caution even
when only gently shaking the container. The hot liquid may suddenly boil over
and splatter. Always place a spoon in the container
when heating liquids. This prevents delayed boiling.
WARNING Risk of injury! Unsuitable cookware may crack. Porcelain or ceramic
cookware can have small perforations in the handles and lid. These
perforations conceal a cavity below. If moisture penetrates this cavity, it
could cause the cookware to crack. Only use microwave-safe cookware. Cookware
and containers made from metal or cookware with metal edging may lead to
sparks being formed during simple microwave operation. The appliance is
damaged. Never use metal containers during mi-
crowave-only operation. Only use microwave-safe cookware or use
the microwave in combination with a type of heating.

WARNING Risk of electric shock! The appliance uses a high voltage. Never
remove the casing.
WARNING Risk of serious harm to health! Inadequate cleaning may destroy the
surface of the appliance, reduce its service life, and lead to dangerous
situations, such as escaping microwave energy. Clean the appliance on a
regular basis,
and remove any food residue immediately. Always keep the cooking compartment,
door seal, door and door stop clean. “Cleaning and servicing”, Page 27 Never
operate the appliance if the cooking compartment door or the door seal is
damaged. Microwave energy may escape. Never use the appliance if the cooking
compartment door, the door seal or the plastic door frame is damaged. Any
repair work must only be carried out by the after-sales service. Microwave
energy will escape from appliances that do not have any casing. Never remove
the casing. Contact our after-sales service if maintenance or repair work is
needed. 1.6Meat probe
WARNING Risk of electric shock! Using the wrong meat probe could damage the
insulation. Only use the meat probe for this specific
appliance. WARNING Risk of injury!
The meat probe is sharp. Handle the meat probe with care. 1.7Cleaning function
WARNING Risk of fire! Loose food remnants, fat and meat juices may catch fire
when the cleaning function is in progress. Before you start the cleaning
function, al-
ways remove coarse dirt from the cooking compartment. Never clean accessories
at the same time.
The outside of the appliance gets very hot when the cleaning function is in
progress. Never hang combustible objects, e.g. tea
towels, on the door handle. Leave the front of the appliance clear. Keep
children at a safe distance. If the door seal is damaged, a large amount of
heat is generated around the door. Do not scrub or remove the seal. Never
operate the appliance if the seal is
damaged or missing.
WARNING Risk of serious harm to health! The appliance gets very hot when the
cleaning function is in progress. The non-stick coating on baking trays and
tins is destroyed and noxious gases are released. Never clean non-stick baking
trays or bak-
ing tins using the cleaning function. Never clean accessories at the same
time.
WARNING Risk of harm to health! The cleaning function heats up the cooking
compartment to a very high temperature so that food left over from roasting,
grilling and baking will burn off. This process releases vapours, which can
irritate mucous membranes. Keep the kitchen well ventilated while the
cleaning function is running. Do not remain in the room for long periods. Keep
children and pets away.
WARNING Risk of burns! The cooking compartment gets very hot when the cleaning
function is in progress. Never open the appliance door. Allow the appliance to

Preventing material damageen
2 Preventing material damage Preventingmaterialdamage
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. Using silicone moulds or any
film, covers or accessories that contain silicone could damage the baking
sensor. Damage may occur even if the baking sensor is not active. Do not use
silicone moulds or any film, covers or
accessories that contain silicone. Never place objects made of silicone in the
cooking
compartment. 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 com-
partment 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.
2.2Microwave
Follow these instructions when using the microwave. ATTENTION! Metal touching
the wall of the cooking compartment will cause sparks, which may damage the
appliance or the inner door pane. Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept
at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door. Using
accessories directly on top of one another causes sparks. Do not combine the
wire rack with the universal pan. Always place accessories on different
levels. The universal pan and baking tray are not suitable for use with
microwave-only mode. Using either of these may create sparks, which will
damage the cooking compartment. Place accessories on the wire rack supplied.
Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may cause sparks, which will
damage the appliance. Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance.

enEnvironmental protection and saving energy Operating the appliance without
food in the cooking compartment may lead to overloading. Do not switch on the
microwave unless there is food
inside. The only exception to this rule is when performing a short cookware
test.
If you prepare microwave popcorn at a microwave power level that is too high, the door pane may crack due to overloading. Never set a microwave power level that is too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600 watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate.
3 Environmental protection and saving energy Environmentalprotectionandsavingenergy
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 36 ¡ Not preheating the appliance can reduce the en-
ergy used by up to 20%. 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 required to defrost it. Switch off the display in the
basic settings. “Basic settings”, Page 24 ¡ Energy is saved when the display
is switched off.
Heat two glasses or cups of liquid at the same time. ¡ Heating several dishes
at the same time requires
less energy than heating dishes one after the other. 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

5.1Types of heating
To ensure that you always find the right type of heating to cook your food, we
explain the differences and applications below. The symbols for each type of
heating help you to remember them.
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
ventilation slots. To ensure that the appliance cools down more quickly after
operation, the cooling fan continues to run for a certain period afterwards.
Appliance door If you open the appliance door during operation, the operation
stops. If you close the appliance door, operation resumes automatically. In
microwave mode, if you close the appliance door, you must continue the
operation.

What it’s used for and how it works
Bake or roast on one or more levels. The fan distributes the heat from the
ring-shaped heating element in the back wall evenly around the cooking
compartment. Traditionally bake or roast on one level. This type of heating is
especially good for cakes with moist toppings. The heat is emitted evenly from
above and below. 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. Prepare dishes with a crispy base. The heat is emitted from above
and more intensively from below. 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. Gently defrost frozen food. Dry herbs, fruit or
vegetables. Final baking or cooking food in a bain marie. The heat is emitted
from below. Keep cooked food warm. Preheat cookware.
5.2Temperature
With most types of heating, you can set the current temperature in the cooking
compartment to approx. 30 °C in the display during heating and read the set
temperature one above the other. When you are preheating the appliance, the
optimal time to place the food in the cooking compartment is as soon as the
displayed temperature in the cooking compartment and the set temperature are
the same.
Note: Due to thermal inertia, the temperature that is displayed may differ slightly from the actual temperature inside the cooking compartment. Residual heat indicator When the appliance is switched off, a red line around the control ring indicates the residual heat in the cooking compartment. The further the temperature drops, the darker the ring. The ring goes out completely at approx. 60 °C.

14.2Setting options for the dishes
To cook the dishes perfectly, the appliance uses different settings depending
on the dish. The display shows you the settings that are used. You can adjust
certain settings. Follow the instructions on the display. Note: The cooking
result depends on the quality and composition of the food. Use fresh and,
ideally, chilled food. Use frozen food straight from the freezer. Tips and
information about the settings If you set a dish, the display shows relevant
information for this dish, e.g.: ¡ Suitable shelf position ¡ Suitable
accessory or cookware ¡ Added liquid ¡ Time for turning or stirring
When this time is reached, a signal sounds. To call up the information, press

Programmes The optimum type of heating, temperature and cooking time are
preset for programmes. To achieve an optimal cooking result, you must also set
the weight, thickness or the cooking level. You can set the weight only in the
intended range. Unless otherwise indicated, set the total weight for your
dish. Recommended settings For the recommended settings, the optimum type of
heating is preset as a fixed value. You can adjust the preset temperature and
the cooking time. Baking sensor Some dishes are suitable for cooking with the
baking sensor . You do not have to implement any further settings. The baking
sensor monitors the baking process in the cooking compartment. The appliance
regulates the settings automatically and ends the operation once the dish is
ready. Notes ¡ Do not use the baking sensor if the dish is already
pre-baked. The baking result would no longer be satisfactory. ¡ Do not open
the appliance door approx. 5 minutes after starting the operation with the
baking sensor. The baking sensor mode stops. If you have to open the appliance
door, restart the operation afterwards without the baking sensor or cancel the
operation and set it manually. Monitor the cooking process until the food is
ready. ¡ To achieve an optimal baking result, use dark-coloured metal baking
tins. ATTENTION! Using silicone moulds or any film, covers or accessories that
contain silicone could damage the baking sensor. Damage may occur even if the
baking sensor is not active. Do not use silicone moulds or any film, covers or
accessories that contain silicone. Never place objects made of silicone in the
cooking compartment. Remaining time forecast for the operation If your
appliance is connected to Home Connect, the appliance can forecast the
expected remaining time for the cooking process. The initial remaining time
appears on the display after approx. 1 minute. The remaining time is
continually recalculated and updated. Note: The remaining time forecast is not
available for all types of heating.

30 How it works Howitworks
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.
30.1General 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.
ATTENTION! Acidic food may damage the grid Do not place acidic food, such as
fruit or food with
an acidic marinade directly on the pan support.
1 Depending on the appliance specifications 2 Only applies to Great Britain
36
Information for those allergic to nickel In rare cases, small amounts of
nickel may pass into the food. You can buy suitable accessories from customer
service, from specialist retailers or online. “Other accessories”, Page 13 Tip
For some food, you can use the ventilation function “Crisp Finish”.For some
food, you can use the ventilation function . The ventilation function “Crisp
Finish” extracts moisture from the cooking compartment with increased
intensity. This method is recommended for food with lots of moisture, e. g. ¡
for cooking on several levels ¡ for baked items with a moist toppings ¡ for
meringue pastry ¡ when increased crispiness is required
For crispier food, we recommend switching this on in the second half of the
cooking time. “Ventilation function ‘Crisp Finish'”, Page 19
30.2Baking 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.
¡ Silicone moulds are not suitable. ¡ If you are cooking bakes directly in the
universal
pan, place the universal pan into the cooking compartment at level 2. ¡ The
setting values for bread dough apply to both dough placed on a baking tray and
dough placed in a loaf tin. ¡ The recommended settings for baking in
combination with the microwave mode are for metal baking tins. 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 If you are using the 4D hot air type of heating, you can
choose between shelf positions 1, 2, 3 and 4. You will obtain the best results
if you use the following shelf positions.
Baking on one level Tall baked items and tins/dishes on the wire rack Shallow baked items/baking tray

racks with greaseproof pa-
per
Height 3 1 5 3 1 5 3 2 1
Use the 4D hot air heating function. Notes ¡ 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. ¡ If you opt for cooking in combination with the microwave
mode, you can only cook on one level.
30.3Roasting, 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.
¡ The meat probe allows you to cook with absolute precision. Take note of the
important information on using it correctly. Page 19
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 into the cooking compartment one level
below the wire rack. ¡ 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.
37
enHow it works
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.
30.4Microwave cooking
If you cook food using the microwave mode, you can reduce the cooking time
considerably. General information ¡ When using the microwave mode, the cooking
time
is determined based on the total weight. If you want to cook a quantity that
differs from the specified quantity, the general rule is Double the quantity
requires just under double the cooking time.
¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cookware may become very hot.
¡ The main part of the instruction manual contains information on how to
configure the microwave and microwave boost oven settings. “Microwave”, Page
17
Tip You can find more microwave recipes here: ¡ “Defrosting”, Page 43 ¡
“Warming up food using the microwave mode”,
Page 44 Cooking, braising or steaming using the microwave mode ¡ Use
microwave-safe cookware with a lid. Alternat-
ively, you can use a plate or special microwaveable film to cover the dish. ¡
For cereal products, e.g. rice, use deep cookware with a lid. Cereal products
foam a lot during cooking. Add liquid in accordance with the instructions and
information provided in the recommended settings tables. ¡ Do not wash or dry
food. Add 1-3 tablespoons of water or lemon juice to the food. ¡ Spread the
food out so that as much of it as possible is in contact with the bottom of
the cookware. Food that is in contact with the bottom will cook more quickly
than food that is piled up. ¡ Use salt and seasoning sparingly. When cooking
food using the microwave mode, most of the food’s natural flavour will be
retained. ¡ Turn or stir the food 2-3 times during cooking. ¡ After cooking,
leave the food to rest for 2-3 minutes.
30.5Cooking 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. ¡ 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. ¡ To achieve best results, we recommend that
you reheat food or ready meals at 600 watts. If the packaging specifies a
higher microwave output setting, extend the time.
