The Bosch Series 2 Microwave excels at common kitchen tasks due to its 800W power. You can expect a standard ready meal to be heated thoroughly in minutes, while defrosting a small portion of meat or vegetables is quick and efficient. The 20-litre capacity comfortably accommodates most dinner plates and soup bowls, making it perfect for single servings or meals for two. For example, a bowl of soup can be hot and ready in under two minutes, and a frozen pastry can be defrosted and warmed quickly.
The 27cm glass turntable ensures that heat is distributed evenly, minimizing the need to manually rotate dishes. The LED lighting is a practical feature, allowing you to visually check on your food's progress without interrupting the cooking cycle. For spills or food splatters, the Cleaning Assistance function is highly effective, turning what could be a chore into a simple wipe-down, ensuring your microwave remains hygienic and ready for use.
As a freestanding appliance, setting up your Bosch Series 2 Microwave is straightforward. Simply unpack the unit, remove all packing materials, and place it on a stable, flat, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation space around the sides, top, and back of the microwave as recommended in the user manual. Then, plug the power cord into a standard grounded electrical outlet.
This microwave is designed for standard household electrical outlets and is compatible with most kitchen counter spaces. Its dimensions (H260 x W442 x D345 mm) allow it to fit comfortably in many kitchen setups. It is not designed for built-in installation.
Maintaining your microwave's cleanliness is easy, thanks to the dedicated features:
Cleaning Assistance: For light soiling, place a cup of water with a drop of washing-up liquid inside the microwave. Set it to 600 Watts for 3 minutes. The steam generated will soften food residues, allowing you to easily wipe them away with a damp cloth after the cycle completes and the appliance cools.
General Cleaning: For daily cleaning, wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
Turntable Care: The glass turntable and turntable support can be removed for thorough cleaning in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
