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 accessor-
ies 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.

When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side 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 com-
pletely 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.

Environmental protection and saving energy
3  Environmental protection and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Only preheat the appliance if the recipe or the recom-
mended settings tell you to do so.
→"How it works", Page41
¡
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 re-
quired to defrost it.
Switch off the display in the basic settings.
→"Basic settings", Page24
¡
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

Before using for the first time
7  Before using for the first time
Implement the settings for the initial configuration. Calibrate the appliance. Clean the appliance and accessories.
7.1 Determining the water hardness before switching on the appliance for the first time
Before using the appliance for the first time, ask your
water supplier about the hardness of your tap water. To
ensure that the appliance can reliably remind you to
descale it when required, you must set your water hard-
ness range correctly.
ATTENTION!
If the wrong water hardness has been set, the appli-
ance cannot remind you to descale it at the right time.
Set the water hardness correctly.
Using unsuitable liquids may damage the appliance.
Do not use distilled water, highly chlorinated tap wa-
ter (>40 mg/l) or other liquids.
Only use cold, fresh tap water, softened water or
non-carbonated mineral water.
Malfunctions may occur when using filtered or deminer-
alised water. The appliance may request that you top
up the water tank even though it may be full, or opera-
tion with steam is cancelled after approx. twominutes.
If required, mix filtered or demineralised water with
the bottled non-carbonated mineral water with a ra-
tio of onetoone.
Notes
¡ If you are using mineral water, set the water hard-
ness range to "very hard". If you are using mineral
water, you must only use non-carbonated mineral
water.
¡ If your tap water is very hard, we recommend that
you use softened water. If you are using only
softened water, set the "softened" water hardness
range.

11.2 Setting 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 opera-
tion.
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 typ-
ical 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 steam-
ing.
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 tem-
perature and does not dry out.
Defrost
Use the defrost function
to defrost deep-frozen and
frozen products gently without affecting the quality.
Sous-vide
Sous-vide
is a type of low-temperature cooking dur-
ing which vacuum-sealed food is cooked at low tem-
peratures between 50 and 95°C with 100% steam.
Sous-vide is suitable for meat, fish, vegetables and
desserts.
A chamber vacuum-packing machine is used to heat-
seal the food in special heat-resistant cooking bags.
The protective cooking bag helps retain flavour and nu-
trients.
WARNING‒Risk of scalding!
Hot water collects on the vacuum-sealing bag during
cooking.
Use an oven cloth to carefully lift the vacuum-seal-
ing bag so that the hot water runs off into the univer-
sal pan or the cooking container.
Use the oven cloth to carefully remove the vacuum-
sealing bag.
Note:During sous-vide cooking, more condensate
forms on the cooking compartment floor than with
other types of heating.

ATTENTION!
Risk of damage to kitchen units Too much water has
collected on the cooking compartment floor. The water
may leak out of the appliance.
Do not fill the water tank a second time for the sous-
vide cooking.
Added steam
When you cook with added steam, the appliance intro-
duces 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 un-
dergoes a minimum reduction in volume.
You can combine added steam with the following
functions:

Steam jet
You can use the steam jet function to specifically add
intensive steam at various intervals. This makes bread
and bread rolls in particular wonderfully crispy and
gives them a golden colour.
The appliance adds clouds of steam to the cooking
compartment for approx. 3to 5minutes. Depending on
the operation, you can activate the steam jet several
times.

pliance to prepare different meals by selecting the op-
timum settings automatically.
13.1 Cookware for dishes
The cooking result depends on the composition of the
meat and the size of cookware.
You should therefore use heat-resistant cookware that
is suitable for temperatures up to 300°C. Glass or
glass ceramic cookware is best. The joint should cover
approx.2/3 of the cookware base.
Cookware made from the following material is not
suitable:
¡ Bright, shiny aluminium
¡ Unglazed clay
¡ Plastic or plastic handles
13.2 Setting options for the dishes

cooking process until the food is ready.
¡ To achieve an optimal baking result, use dark-col-
oured metal baking tins.
ATTENTION!
Using silicone moulds or any film, covers or accessor-
ies 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.

How it works
30  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 prepara-
tion and corresponding adjustment values can be
found in the HomeConnect app or on our website
www.bosch-home.com.
30.1 General 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.
1
Depending on the appliance specifications
background
en How it works
42
¡ The setting values apply to food placed in the cook-
ing compartment while the cooking compartment is
still cold. If you want to preheat anyway, do not
place accessories into the cooking compartment un-
til it has finished preheating.
¡ Remove any accessories that are not being used
from the cooking compartment.
You can buy suitable accessories from customer ser-
vice, from specialist retailers or online.
→"Other accessories", Page12
30.2 Baking 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 cook-
ware 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 com-
partment 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.
ATTENTION!
When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side 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 po-
sitions.

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.
30.3 Roasting, braising and grilling tips
¡ The recommended settings are for fridge-temperat-
ure 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 ⅔ 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20
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 succu-
lent and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be roasted directly on the wire
rack.
¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the uni-
versal pan, with the wire rack inside it, into the cook-
ing compartment at the specified shelf height.
¡ Add up to ½litre of water to the universal pan, de-
pending on the size and type of food that you want
to roast.
You can make a sauce from the juices that are col-
lected. This also means that less smoke is pro-
duced and the cooking compartment does not be-
come 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 ex-
pand.
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.

How it works en
43
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, drum-
sticks 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 uni-
versal 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 determ-
ines how frequently this occurs.
¡ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
30.4 Cooking 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 compart-
ment 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 pre-
paration. If the condensate drip tray overflows, this
may cause damage to kitchen units.
¡ The main part of the user manual contains informa-
tion 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46
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.
30.5 Cooking 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-res-
istant.
¡ 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 ac-
cessory. Leave a little space between the individual
pieces.
¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the pack-
aging.

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 5
Steaming tray, size XL: Shelf position 3
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 differ-
ent 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 con-
densate drip tray after using it to cook the meal.

Sous-vide
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking in a vacuum
at low temperatures between 50 and 95C and in
100% steam.
Sous-vide cooking is a gentle method of cooking meat,
fish, vegetables and desserts.
A chamber vacuum-sealing machine is used to heat-
seal the food in a special air-tight, heat-resistant va-
cuum-sealing bag.
The protective envelope of the vacuum-sealing bag re-
tains the nutrients and flavours. The low temperatures
and the direct transfer of heat allow precisely controlled
cooking in order to achieve the desired cooking res-
ults. It is almost impossible to overcook the food.
Sous-vide cooking tips
¡ Servings
Take into consideration the specified quantities
and sizes for the food listed in the recommended
settings tables. Adjust the cooking time for larger
quantities and items.
The appliance can cook up to 2kg of food sous-
vide.
For vegetables and desserts, the specified quant-
ity is for 4people.
¡ You can cook on up to 2 levels. When you do this,
always slide the universal pan in at level1 to catch
any drops of condensate. Insert the wire racks at
the levels above accordingly.
¡ The quality of the cooking result is 100% influenced
by the quality of the ingredients you use. Use only
fresh, top-quality food. This is the only way to guar-
antee a consistent cooking result that delivers im-
peccable flavour.
background
en How it works

Vacuum-sealing food
To ensure an even transfer of heat and an optimised
cooking result, use a chamber vacuum-sealing ma-
chine that can create a 99% vacuum when vacuum-
sealing food.
Tip:To prevent gases escaping from the food, e.g.
from vegetables, vacuum-seal the food no more than
one day before you cook it. The gases inhibit the trans-
fer of heat or cause the texture of the food to change,
thus altering how it cooks, as a result of the vacuum
pressure.
Note:Do not use a core temperature probe.
1.
Season food with half the usual the amount of
spices.
Cooking in a vacuum means that the flavours can-
not escape. The usual quantities of flavourings such
as spices, herbs and garlic affect the taste much
more and intensify it.
Tip:You can intensify the natural flavours of high-
quality food simply by adding a small knob of butter
and a little salt to the vacuum-sealing bag.
Different ingredients affect how the food cooks:
Salt and sugar reduce the cooking time.
Acidic ingredients such as lemon juice or vinegar
make food firmer.
Alcohol and garlic give the food an unpleasant
after-taste.
2.
To fill the vacuum-sealing bag, fold over the edge of
the bag 3-4cm from the top and place the bag
into a receptacle such as a measuring jug.
When you fill the vacuum-sealing bag, make sure
that there are no traces of food left on the seam
area of the vacuum-sealing bag.
3.
Before cooking the food, check that the vacuum in
the bag is intact.
Make sure that:
There is no air in the vacuum-sealing bag.
The heat-sealed seam is perfectly sealed.
There are no holes in the vacuum-sealing bag.
Pieces of meat or fish that have been vacuum-
sealed together are not pressed directly against
one another.
4.
If the vacuum-sealing bag is not filled as it should
be, place the food into a new bag and vacuum-seal
it again.
Preparing food for sous-vide cooking
There are germs on the surface of virtually all food.
WARNING‒Risk of harm to health!
Sous-vide cooking is a method of cooking at low tem-
peratures and, if the instructions for use and hygiene
instructions are not adhered to, it may result adverse
health effects.
Only use high-quality, perfectly fresh food.
Wash and disinfect your hands.
Use disposable gloves, cooking tongs or grill tongs.
Take extra care when preparing critical food, such
as poultry, eggs and fish.
Always thoroughly rinse and peel fruit and veget-
ables.
Always keep work surfaces and chopping boards
clean.
Use different chopping boards for different types of
food.
Only interrupt the cold chain briefly to prepare the
food.
Store vacuum-sealed food in the refrigerator for a
maximum of 24hours before you start the cooking
process.
Once the food is cooked, consume it immediately.
Do not store it after cooking – not even in the refri-
gerator. It is not suitable for reheating.
To kill the germs, dip the vacuum-sealing bag con-
taining the uncooked food into boiling water for no
more than 3seconds.
a This minimises the germs on your ingredients and
maximises hygiene, so your food is now ready for
sous-vide cooking.
Cooking food sous-vide
Requirements
¡ The food is vacuum-sealed. →Page48
¡ The food is prepared. →Page48
1.
Place the food onto the wire rack.
To ensure that the heat is distributed evenly around
the food, do not place the vacuum-sealed food
items on top of one another or close together on the
wire rack.
2.
To catch any drops of condensate, slide the univer-
sal pan in at level1.
3.
ATTENTION!
Risk of damage to kitchen units
Do not fill the water tank a second time for the
sous-vide cooking.
Use the recommended settings when configuring
the appliance settings.
The recommended settings are based on how long
one tankful of water lasts. As a general rule, de-
pending on the set temperature, the following max-
imum cooking times apply when the water tank is
completely full:
Temperature in °C Max. cooking time in
minutes
50 270
60 210
70 150
80 120
90 90
4.
WARNING‒Risk of scalding!
Hot water collects on the vacuum-sealing bag dur-
ing cooking.
Use an oven cloth to carefully lift the vacuum-
sealing bag so that the hot water runs off into the
universal pan or the cooking container.
Use the oven cloth to carefully remove the va-
cuum-sealing bag.
Once the food is cooked, allow the cooking com-
partment to cool and then use a sponge to wipe
away the water.
5.
Dry the outside of the vacuum-sealing bag and
place it in a clean container.
6.
Use scissors to open the vacuum-sealing bag. Place
all of the food and liquid into the container.
You can use the stock or marinade to make a
sauce.
7.
Prepare the food for serving.

Food Cooking tips
Meat ¡ Dab the meat with a tea towel be-
fore placing it into hot oil, in order
to avoid fat spitting out of the pan.
¡ Sear the meat at a very high tem-
perature for a few seconds on
each side. This gives the meat a
nice crust and the flavours you
would expect from frying, without
overcooking it.
Food Cooking tips
Fish ¡ Season the fish and coat with hot
butter.
¡ To give the fish a nice crust and
the flavours you would expect
from frying, sear it for a few
seconds on each side.
¡ Fry the food for longer if has not
been sufficiently well cooked dur-
ing the sous-vide cooking stage.
¡ Serve the fish on preheated plates
and with a hot sauce or butter, as
sous-vide cooking takes place at
low temperatures.
Vegetables ¡ Sear the vegetables briefly to give
them the flavours you would ex-
pect from frying.
¡ Season the vegetables or mix
them with other ingredients.

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.
¡ The Air Fry accessory makes food crispier. If the Air-
Fry 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.
¡ Insert the accessory into the cooking compartment
at level 3. 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.

Roasting and braising
Cooking tips for roasting and braising
Follow this information when frying or braising poultry
or meat.
Calculating the cooking time, e.g. 20+35:
¡ To calculate the cooking time, assume 20minutes
per 500g of meat. Then add an extra 35minutes to
that figure.
¡ For 1.5kg, the cooking time would therefore be
95minutes.
Cooking time range, e.g. 10-15:
¡ Your food will be ready within the specified range of
time (in minutes).
