Troubleshooting
Microwave not turning on or no power
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check your household's circuit breaker. Make sure the microwave door is fully closed; the safety switch prevents operation if the door is ajar.
Food not heating evenly
Verify that the 27cm glass turntable is correctly placed on its support and is rotating freely during operation. For optimal results, stir or flip food halfway through the cooking time.
Unpleasant odors or food residue inside
Utilize the Cleaning Assistance function: place a cup of water with a drop of washing-up liquid inside, run at 600W for 3 minutes, then wipe the softened residue with a damp cloth after cooling. Regular cleaning after each use helps prevent buildup.
LED interior light not working
Ensure the microwave is plugged in and has power. If the light still doesn't illuminate, contact Bosch customer support for assistance, as this typically requires professional servicing.
Door not closing or opening smoothly
Check for any food particles or debris obstructing the door latch or hinges. Ensure the microwave is on a level surface. If the issue persists, avoid forcing the door and contact customer support.
