Operation

About the Appliance

Behind the classic design is modern and perfected technology that ensures a high degree of efficiency. For instance, we have further improved the distribution of heat in the oven by using newly designed elements. The advantage of this results in shorter cooking times, perfect results and lower energy costs.

This oven is very convenient and easy to operate, even with the wide variety of options. The cooking mode and temperature can be adjusted with very little effort. The additional functions such as Cook Time can be set at the touch of a button in just a few seconds, and the display always presents the most important information while you are cooking.

Operating the Oven

Baking layer cakes with 1 or 2 oven racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place bakeware on rack positions 2 & 5 (See Fig. 2). For best results when using a single oven flat rack, place bakeware on rack positions 3 or 4 (See Fig. 1).

Tips

•Preheat the oven if the recipe recommends it.

•Baking time will vary with the size, shape and finish of the bakeware. Dark metal pans or nonstick coatings will cook faster with darker results. Insulated bakeware will lengthen the cook time for most foods.

•For best results, bake food on a single rack with at least 1-11/2" space between pans or dishes and oven walls.

•Eliminate heat loss from the oven by using the window to periodically check food for doneness instead of opening the door.

If multiple racks are necessary, use a maximum of 2 racks. For cakes use rack positions 2 and 5, for cookies use rack positions 1 and 4. Stagger pans so that one is not directly above the other (see graphic below). See "Pan Placement" under "General Tips" for more info. You may also consider using a convection mode.

With up to 3,700 watts of power available on the largest zone, this cooktop can handle everything from gentle simmering to vigorous boiling. Moreover, the Power Boost feature enhances the heating capacity for a short time, making tasks such as boiling water much quicker.

Designed with the home cook in mind, the Bosch HES3023U includes a range of user-friendly features, such as touch control technology that provides a sleek and seamless interface for adjusting settings. The timer function allows for precise cooking times, and the heat indicator keeps users informed about the temperature of the zones, enhancing safety in the kitchen.

For added convenience, the cooktop incorporates a lock feature, which prevents accidental adjustments, especially in households with children. The automatic shut-off feature adds another layer of safety by turning off the cooktop when it senses inactivity, ensuring peace of mind while cooking.

Aesthetically, the Bosch HES3023U is designed to complement contemporary kitchen spaces. Its sleek black glass surface not only looks elegant but is also easy to clean, making maintenance a breeze. The flush installation further enhances its modern appeal, allowing it to seamlessly integrate into the kitchen countertop.
