Liquids

Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea could be overheated. They can be heated beyond the boiling point without appearing to boil. For example, visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. When heating liquids, always place a glass rod/spoon in the container. This will prevent delayed boiling.

CAUTION
Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least 1 in (25 mm) from the oven walls and the inside of the door. Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.

Take ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat up more quickly and evenly in microwaveable ovenware. The different components of the meal may not require the same amount of time to heat up.

• Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for your container, use a plate or special microwave foil.
• Stir or turn the food several times during cooking. Check the temperature.
• After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to 5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
• Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing plates from the oven.

Cooking Items

Eggs :
Do not cook or reheat whole eggs, with or without a shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage the oven or cause injury. Reheating sliced hard-boiled eggs and cooking scrambled eggs is safe.

Popcorn :
Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for microwave use, or pop it in a microwave oven corn popper. Follow popcorn manufacturers’ directions and use a brand suitable for the wattage of your oven. Do not continue to heat after the popping has stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do not leave the oven unattended.

CAUTION
When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, check the package weight before using the popcorn function. Set the oven for the weight of the popcorn package. If these instructions are not followed, popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause fire.

Foods with nonporous skins:
Potatoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, whole squash, and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins. These types of foods must be pierced before cooking to prevent them from exploding.

Baby food / Baby formula:
Do not heat baby bottles or food in a microwave oven. The glass jar or the surface of food may appear warm while the interior can burn the infant’s mouth and esophagus.

Deep fat frying:
Do not deep-fat fry in the oven. Oil can be heated beyond ideal temperatures very quickly in a microwave oven. Temperatures can climb high enough for the cooking oils to reach their respective flash points and burst into flames. The heated oil may bubble and spatter causing possible damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns. Additionally, microwave–safe utensils may not be able to withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and could result in the utensil shattering, if it contains a slight imperfection, scratch, or chip.

Home Canning / Drying foods / Small quantities of foods:
Do not use a microwave oven for home canning or heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build up and the jar may explode. In addition, the oven cannot maintain the food at the proper canning temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, burn, or catch on fire. Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits, or vegetables in your oven. Proper cooking depends on the time set and the weight of the food. If you use a smaller portion than recommended and cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could result.

Browning dishes:
Microwave browning dishes or grills are designed for microwave cooking only. Preheating times vary depending on the size of the browning dish and the food being cooked. Always follow instructions provided by the browning dish or grill manufacturer. Do not preheat browning dishes for more than 6 minutes.

Oven roasting bags:
If an oven bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare according to package directions. Do not use wire twist–ties to close bags, instead use nylon ties, cotton string, or a strip cut from the open end of the bag. Make six ½” (12.7 mm) slits by closure. Place oven cooking bag in a dish slightly larger than the food being cooked.

Cooking Utensils

Microwave

Microwave utensil guide

Suitable ovenware

• Heat-resistant glass, glass-ceramic:
  Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles, and bowls without metallic trim (e.g. Pyrex®, Anchor Hocking™, Corning Ware®, etc.).

• China:
  Bowls, cups, serving plates, and platters without metallic trim.

• Plastic films and wraps:
  Plastic wrap (as a cover) – lay the plastic wrap loosely over the dish and press it to the sides. Vent plastic wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess steam to escape. The dish should be deep enough so that the plastic wrap will not touch the food.

• Microwave-safe plastics:
  Microwave-safe plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid freezer containers, and plastic bags for short cooking times. Use these with care because the plastic may soften from the heat of the food.

• Paper products:
  Paper towels, wax paper, parchment paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or design. Look for the manufacturer’s label for any special instructions for use in the microwave oven.

Unsuitable ovenware

• Metal utensils and cookware:
  Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven cooking. Also, avoid metal skewers, thermometers, or foil trays. Metal utensils can cause arcing, which can damage your microwave oven.

• Metal decoration:
  Bowls, cups, serving plates, and platters with metallic trim.

• Aluminum foil:
  Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings. Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the side walls of the oven cavity and door of the microwave.

• Wood:
  Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets made of wood will react in the same way.

• Tightly covered cookware:
  Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered cookware. Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking. Tightly closed pouches may explode.

• Brown paper:
  Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb heat and can burn.

• Flawed or chipped cooking utensils:
  Any utensil that is cracked, flawed, or chipped may break in the oven.

• Metal twist ties:
  Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags. They become hot and could cause a fire.

Ovenware test
Do not turn on the microwave unless there is food inside. The following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule. Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave:

1. Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to 1 minute.
2. Check the temperature occasionally during that time. The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch. The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or if sparks are generated.

Suggestions for best results
To help you achieve the best possible results from your microwave oven, read the following suggestions below:

Storage temperature
Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer to cook.

Size
Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones. Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more evenly when cooked together. For more even results, reduce the power levels when cooking large pieces of food.

Natural moisture
Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy heats water molecules very efficiently.

Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables from the outside to the center to distribute the heat more evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster. (Constant stirring is not necessary.)

Turning
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts, or whole cauliflower halfway through the cooking time. This will help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.

Placing food
Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.

Arranging food
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable tray.

Letting food stand
After removing the food from the microwave, cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish cooking. This will help the food finish cooking in the center and avoid overcooking the outer edges. The length of stand time depends on the density and surface area of the food items.

Wrapping foods
Sandwiches and many other food types containing pre-baked bread should be wrapped in paper towels or wax paper prior to placing them in the microwave to help prevent the food items from drying out while heating.

Automatic programs
The automatic programs let you prepare food in a fast and simple way using microwave heating. Select the program and enter the values prompted on the display; the automatic program selects the optimum setting for you.

Auto Defrost
With the Auto Defrost feature, you can defrost four different types of food by entering the weight. The ideal defrost time will be calculated by the program.

Ovenware for defrosting
Place the food in a microwaveable shallow dish, such as a glass casserole dish or glass plate, but do not cover it.

Stand time
The defrosted food should be left to stand for an additional 10 to 30 minutes until it reaches an even temperature. Large pieces of meat require a longer standing time than smaller pieces. Flat pieces of meat and items made from ground meat should be separated from each other before leaving to stand. After this time, you can continue to prepare the food, even though thick pieces of meat may still be frozen in the middle.

Setting Auto Defrost
The appliance must be turned off.

Example : Set Auto Defrost for Ground Meat.

1. Take the food out of the packaging and weigh it, then place it in a suitable dish on the ceramic tray.
2. Touch Auto Defrost. The Auto Defrost symbol lights up and the display shows SELECT FOOD‚ 1-4.
3. Select the desired program from the label in the oven cavity. For Ground Meat touch the number key 1. -or- Touch Auto Defrost or +Amount repeatedly to scroll through all Auto Defrost modes. 0.00 is blinking and the food item is shown on the display.
4. Enter the weight of the food you want to defrost using the number keys. For example, to enter 2 lbs type 2 0 0. The weight and start/enter are blinking.
5. Touch Start/Enter. Auto Defrost will set the appropriate defrosting time and start counting down.

Once the defrost time has elapsed, a beep will sound. The appliance turns off and the clock is displayed.

Note : A beep sounds during defrosting for all foods as a reminder to turn food over or separate pieces.

Opening appliance door during operation
Opening the appliance door during operation will interrupt the current mode. Close the appliance door and then touch Start/Enter to resume operation.

Cancel operation
Touch Clear/Off to cancel the active oven mode. The appliance turns off and the clock is displayed. The cooling fans may continue to run for a while and then switch off automatically.

Tips for defrosting

WARNING: HEALTH RISK
Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or poultry. Drain off this liquid when turning meat and poultry, and under no circumstances, use it for other purposes, or allow it to come into contact with other foods.

• Always enter the weight in lbs when using the defrost by weight feature (0.1 to 6.0 lbs).
• Use the defrost mode for raw food items only.
• Defrosting gives the best results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0° F (taken directly from a freezer). If the food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5° F or below, always program a lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent cooking the food.
• If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time or weight.
• The shape of the package will alter the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food packets defrost more quickly than a deep frozen block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better.
• Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of aluminum foil, if they start to heat up.
  Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails. Do not allow aluminum foil to touch the oven cavity when defrosting.

Cooking meat in your microwave
Be sure to place prepared meats on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Start cooking the meat fat side down and if necessary, use narrow strips of aluminum foil to shield any bone tips or thin meat areas. After cooking, check the temperature in several places before letting the meat stand at the recommended time. Please note that the temperatures in the following charts are temperatures at removal time; the temperature will rise during the standing period.

*Expect a 10° F rise in the temperature during the standing period.

Stand time

Cooking poultry in your microwave
Be sure to place poultry on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Cover poultry with wax paper to prevent splattering. Use narrow strips of aluminum foil to shield any bone tips thin meat areas, or areas that start to overcook. After cooking, check the temperature in several places before letting the meat stand at the recommended time.

Cooking eggs in your microwave

• Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.
• Always pierce yolk on whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set; they will become tough if overcooked.
• Cooking scrambled eggs is safe.

Cooking vegetables in your microwave

• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Rarely is extra water needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes or carrots are being cooked, add about ¼ cup of water.
• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger vegetables.
• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash, or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over halfway through cooking.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing toward the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap.
• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several locations before cooking to prevent them from bursting.
• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time.
• Most of the time, the denser the food, the longer the required standing time. For example, a baked potato should stand for 5 minutes before serving, while a dish of peas may be served immediately.

Cooking seafood in your microwave
Be sure to place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork. Use a tight cover to steam fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer.

Cleaning and Maintenance

WARNING
Be sure the entire appliance has cooled and the grease has solidified before attempting to clean any part of the appliance.

Cleaning Guide

• For best performance and safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven front frame free of food and grease build-up.
• Never use abrasive scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Rinse and wipe completely dry.
• Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon.
• Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, if needed.
• Never operate the oven without food in the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water standing inside the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY

What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to

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 (“Product”), 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 from a BSH authorized dealer or directly from BSH (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 to the original purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary home use during the term of the warranty. Please make sure to register your Product; 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.

Please make sure to register your Product; 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.

How Long the Warranty Lasts
Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days from the date of the original delivery. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of the original delivery, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or other damage to the finish) of the Product, for thirty (30) days from the date of delivery or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, “As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.

Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
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). Nothing in this warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original part. 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 concerning such parts. Bosch’s sole liability and responsibility hereunder are to repair manufacturer-defective Products 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 a non-authorized service provider; Bosch will have no responsibility or liability for damage resulting from repairs or work performed by a non-authorized service provider. 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). Nevertheless, taking your product to be serviced by a repair shop that is not affiliated with or an authorized dealer of Bosch will not void this warranty. Also, using third-party parts will not void this warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch will not incur any liability, or have a 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. Further, to the extent you have installed the Product in a difficult-to-access location or have otherwise installed temporary or permanent fixtures that create barriers to accessing or removing the Product, Bosch will not incur any liability for or have a responsibility, for work or costs associated with moving the Product or otherwise creating access to the Product to repair or replace it. All such costs shall be your sole responsibility.

Out-of-Warranty Product
Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
