Parts and controls
Storage containers
Use to store food under vacuum to preserve
the freshness and extend the shelf life of
food contained in them, to marinate food,
or to reheat it in the microwave. The glass
container is also suitable for use in the
oven.
12
Before using the containers in the
microwave or oven, make sure you remove
the lid.
Important!
– Do not fill the container higher than 1 cm
below the rim.
– The glass container can be put in the
heated oven directly from the freezer.
– Never put a hot container in water. Allow
the container to cool slowly.
Lid with vacuum seal
For airtight sealing of the containers.
The lids of the storage containers are
equipped with a vacuum indicator. When
the indicator visibly dimples inwards, a
vacuum has been attained.
To remove a lid with vacuum applied, first
grip the vacuum seal at one end and pull it
up. Sufficient air has to get inside for the lid
to be removed.
The lids of the storage containers are
equipped with a date indicator. Turn the
two rings to set the day and month when
the food was added.
Drip tray
The drip tray separates the food from liquid
that is excreted during storage. Liquid
collects under the drip tray.
Vacuum zipper bags
Use to store food under vacuum to preserve
the freshness and extend the shelf life of
food contained in them, to marinate food or
for sous-vide cooking.
Use only original Bosch vacuum zipper
bags.
For storing liquids (such as soup) we
recommend using containers.
