INPORTANT 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-dean ovens
gives off very small amounts of formaldehyde
during the first several cleaning cycles.
Exposure to these substances can be
minimized by:
!. 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.

Before Using the Cooktop
• Remove all packing materials and labels from the cooktop
surface.
While cool, wipe with a dean, damp sponge and dry.
Apply the Cooktop Cleaning Creme packaged with the
range. Buff with a dean cloth. See Care and Cleaning
Section,
There 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 Creme 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.
o 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 UltraSpeed TM 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
Temperature Limitersat left.) There are 9 heat setting positions
from 9 (high) to ! (low) and a special setting for keep warm.
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 TripleElement,locatedinthe leftfrontposition,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.

_TwisT Dial
The cooktop uses an mTwisT magnetic dial to select the desired
heat setting. The mTwisT dial is held onto the cooktop by a
strong magnet and automatically positions itself in the center of
the dial location when placed on the cooktop.
Note; If the dial is removed from the cooktop when in use, all
elements will be turned off after IO seconds. The cooktop is
locked and the Panel Lock light comes on. (See Setting Panel
Lock on Page 11.)
Element 'OI!" Indicator Light
The area above the element touch pad being used will show
the cook setting when the element is on (See graphic above).
When the element is turned off, the hot surface indicator
comes on in this area. (See Hot Surface Indicator Light below).
Hot Surface Indicator Light
Each element features a hot indicator light to show when the
cooking surface is too hot to touch. A letter I-! will appear
above the element touch pad.
The light remains on until the cooking area has cooled to a
safe-to-touch temperature.
If a hot surface light is on, use caution when working OF
cleaning around the cooktop as the cooktop is still hot.
Keep Warm
Each element has a keep warm setting to keep hot, cooked
foods at serving temperatures.
To set Keep Warm feature:
1. Touch element pad for desired element.
2. Touch KEEP WARM pad. L is displayed above selected
element and element comes on.
Keep Warm Guidelines
Use pans/utensils with flat bases. Plates and casseroles with
shallow ridges around the base can be used provided they
are made of heat=safe materials.
Keep dish covered to keep foods hot. Avoid paper or plastic.
Choose pans and cookware that may be safely used on a hot
surface. Example: Use CorningWare® "Safe for Rangetop"
rather than Pyrex® which is not recommended for cooktop
use,
Use a trivet or steamer inside a pan when necessary to raise
food off bottom of pan.

Oven Racks
Your oven has three racks: 2 fiat and one telescopic or three
fiat. They are designed with a stop so they will stop before
coming completely out and not tilt.
_'_ CAUTJ[ON: TO AVOID POSSIBLE BURNS, PLACE
OVEN RACKS IN DESIRED POSITIONS BEFORE
TURNING THE OVEN O@. ALWAYS USE OVEN HITTS
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.
Repiadng in oven: Grasp rack firmly on both sides. Tilt
rack upto allow stop into rack holder. Bring rackto 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 dosed
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 S = 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
RACR 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.
Multipme 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.
To 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 iL
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 temperatu re 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
!" to ! 1/2"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 food directly
on oven bottom.
Baking Pans
Glass baking dishes absorb heat, therefore reduce oven
temperature 25% 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.

BAKE, PROOF (some models) and
Baking is cookin( with dry, heated air, Both the upper and
lower element c',de to maintain the oven temperature:
The Bake mode can be used to prepare a variety of food
items, from pastdesto casseroles. 1roan 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 oven to keep foods hot
until ready to serve.
o The Warming mode temperatures are !40 ° - 220 ° R The
default temperature is !70 °.
o 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 !05 ° R The
default temperature is !00 °.
o Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that
accomodates the size of the container.
, Keep the door dosed and use the oven light to check
the rising of the dough.
*The convection bake temperature is 25°F less than
recommended on packages or recipes. The temperture in this
chart has been reduced 25°R
*_This chart is a guide. Actual times depend on the mixes or
recipes baked. Follow recipe or package directions and reduce
temperature appropriately.
CONVEC ON 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 drculated throughout the oven by the
convection fan:
The Convection Bake mode is well-suited for baking large
quantities of food on multiple racks. [t 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
o Three rack cooking (more even browning)
o Higher Volume (yeast items rise higher)
o Cook more items at once
For Best Results:
o Reduce recipe temperature by 25° F. Refer to the
Convection Baking chart for examples.
o Place food in low-sided, uncovered pans such as cookie
sheets without sides.
o Center baking pans side to side on the oven rack.

BROIL
Broiling uses intense heat radiated from the upper element:
The Broil mode "best suited to cooking tl: n, tender cuts of
meat (!" or less), poultry and fish. It can also be used to
brown breads and casseroles.
The benefits of Broiling include:
o Fast and efficient cooking
o Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids
o Browning as the food cooks
For Best Results:
Preheat oven 3=4 minutes
Steaks and Chops should be at least 3/4" thick
o Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking
o Use the broil pan and grid included with your range
o 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 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.
o Do not cover meat or use cooking bags.
o Use the broil pan and grid provided with the range for
roasting. A low-sided, uncovered pan can also be used.
o Use the probe (some models) or a meat thermometer to
determine the internal temperature of the meat.
o 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 !0-!5 minutes after
removing from the oven.

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° R Dry herbs at
100° R (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.
o Multiple racks can be used simultaneously. Contact your
Bosch dealer for drying racks.
o Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
o Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative
Extension Office or library for additional information.
The deer 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. BecarefuI that the object does not touch
the oven gasket.

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" (!0 = 20 minutes)
before carving the meat.

Before Use Care
Care is easy when preventative steps are taken. For 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 remove
water spots or food spatters. The temperature of the cooking
surface reduces the protective qualities of this cleaner. It
must be reappiied 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.
Dally Cleaning Techniques
!, Clean the surface when it is completelV cool with the
Cooktop Cleaning Cr_me.
Exception: Remove Dry Sugar, Sugar Syrup, Tomato
Products and Milk immediately with the razor blade
scraper (See Care and Cleaning Chart, next page).
2, Wipe off spatters with a dean, damp sponge or paper
towel. Rinse and dry. Use white vinegar if smudge remains;
rinse.
3. Apply a small amount of the Coektop Cteaninc3
Crea_. When dry, buff surface with a clean paper towel
or cloth.
Do Not Use the Following Cleaners
® Gtass 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.
$oapofiHed scouring pads such as SOS R_can scratch the
surface.
Powdery deaners 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.

TYPE OF SOIL
DW sugar, sugar syrup, milk or tomato spills. Melted
plastic film or foil. All these items REQUIRE
IHM[D[ATE REHOVAL. 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.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
Failure to remove these soils immediately can
permanently damage the surface,
Remove pan and turn off the element.
Wearing an oven mitt, hold scraper at 30 ° angle, using
care not to gouge or scratch the glass. Push soil off the
heated area.

Hetal marks: Iridescent stain
Hard water spots
Hot cooking liquids dripped on surface
Surface scratches
Pans with aluminum, copper or stainless steel bases
may leave marks. Treat immediately, after surface has
cooled, with the Cooktop Cleaning Creme. If this does
not remove the metal marks, try a mild abrasive (Ben
Ami% Soft Scrub R'without bleach) with a dampened
paper towel. Rinse and reapply creme.
Failure to remove metal marks before the next
heating makes removal very difficult.
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 bei[overs and stains, before using the
cooktop again.
Apply Cleaning Creme before using to remove sand-

Self Cleaning the Oven
Bosch ovens feature a self-cleaning function that eliminates
the manual labor involved with cleaning your oven. During
self-cleaning, the oven uses a very"high temperature to burn
away food soil and grease.
• It is common to see smoke and/or an occasional flame-
up 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° E 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 4S0 ° 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 returns to 350 ° F after cleaning, the
automatic door lock will release and the door can be
opened,

Cookware Characteristics
The choice of pans directly affects the cooking speed and
uniformity, For best results select pans with the following
features:
Fiat 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 F_atness of Your Pans
Turn the pan upside down on the countertop and place a ruler
fiat 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 !" 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 !" all around.
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 flat=
bottom wok.) Never place a support ring, such as a wok ring
or trivet, on the cooking surface.
Cookware Tips
Useof 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 with thick, smooth metal bottoms.
Do not slide metal pots across the cooktop. Pans may leave
marks which need to be removed immediately. See Care
and Cleaning Section.
Do not use glass pans as they" may scratch the surface.
I,t, "r" _ I e} '_,
Specialty Pans
