Frequently Asked Questions - HGV745257N BOSCH

What type of gas can I use with the Bosch HGV745257N hob?
The hob is factory-set for natural gas but can be converted to LPG (propane/butane) using the included conversion kit. Consult the manual for jet replacement.
How do I clean the hob without damaging it?
Remove pan supports and burner caps. Wash them with warm soapy water using a soft sponge. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Wipe the hob surface with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
What should I do if a burner fails to ignite?
Check that the burner cap is properly seated and dry. Clean the ignition spark plug and burner slots. If it still fails, the spark plug or thermocouple may need replacement.
Why does the flame go out while cooking?
This is likely due to the flame failure safety device (thermocouple). It cuts off gas if the flame is extinguished. Ensure the burner cap is correctly positioned and the thermocouple tip is exposed. If persistent, the thermocouple may be faulty.
How do I convert the hob from natural gas to LPG?
Turn off the gas and electricity. Replace the injectors (jets) on each burner with the LPG ones from the conversion kit. Adjust the bypass screw for minimum flame. Refer to the manual for specific steps.
What are the recommended pan sizes for the burners?
Use pans that cover the burner completely. Minimum diameter: 12 cm for small burners, up to 28 cm for the wok burner. Ensure pans have a flat bottom.
The control knob is stiff to turn; what can I do?
Do not force it. Gently pull the knob off and clean the shaft with a soft cloth. If it remains stiff, there may be grease buildup inside the valve – contact a professional.
Can I install the hob myself?
No, installation and conversion must be carried out by a qualified gas installer in accordance with local regulations. The hob must be connected to the gas supply with a flexible hose or rigid pipe.
How do I access spare parts for this hob?
Spare parts such as burner caps, ignition spark plugs, thermocouples, and knobs are available from Bosch service centers or authorized dealers. Quote the model number HGV745257N.
What is the energy efficiency of the Bosch HGV745257N?
The hob is rated A+ energy efficiency class. Gas hobs generally have high efficiency, and using the correct pan size further improves performance.

The gas burner does not ignite

If there is a power cut or if the ignition plugs are damp, you can light the gas burners with a gas lighter or a match.

Table - Cooking

Select the right saucepan size for each burner. The diameter of the pot or pan base should be the same as that of the burner.

Cooking times depend on the type, weight and quality of the food. Deviations are therefore possible. You yourself can best judge the optimal cooking time.

Minerals and vitamins are very quickly destroyed during cooking. Therefore, only use a little water. This will help you retain vitamins and minerals. Select short cooking times so that the vegetables remain firm and full of nutrients.

Care and cleaning

With attentive care and cleaning, your hob and oven will retain its looks and remain in good working order for a long time. We will explain here how you should care for and clean them correctly.

Notes

■ Slight differences in the colours on the front of the oven are caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
■ Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■ Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does not affect operation. The edges of thin trays cannot be completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.

Upper glass cover

Before opening the top cover, remove any spills with a cloth.

Use glass cleaner if possible.

For cleaning, remove the top cover. To do this, hold the cover securely on both sides with both hands and pull it upwards.

BOSCH HGV745257N - Upper glass cover - 1

natural_image Illustration of hands holding a tablet with a lightning bolt and upward arrow, next to a grid-patterned stove (no text or symbols)

If the cover hinges become loose, note the letters marked on them. The hinge with the letter R must be fitted on the right, and the hinge with the letter L must be fitted on the left.

After cleaning, re-assemble the top cover following the same procedure in reverse order.

Only close the top cover once the burners have cooled down.

Cleaning agents

Damage to the various different surfaces caused by using the wrong cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the following instructions.

When cleaning the hob do not use

■ undiluted washing-up liquid or dishwasher detergent,
■ scouring pads,
■ abrasive cleaning agents such as oven cleaner or stain remover,
■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.
■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.

When cleaning the oven do not use

■ sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■ cleaning agent with a high alcohol content,
■ scouring pads,
■ high-pressure cleaners or steam jets.
■ Do not clean individual parts in the dishwasher.
Wash new sponges thoroughly before first use.

Stainless steel frontsWipe the appliance with plenty of water and some washing-up liquid. Always wipe parallel to the natural grain. Otherwise, you could scratch the surface. Dry with a soft cloth. Remove flecks of limescale, grease, starch and albumin (e.g. egg white) immediately. Do not use any abrasive materials, scouring sponges or rough cleaning cloths. The stainless steel fronts can be polished using a special care product. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Plinth drawer (option)Wipe with some washing-up liquid and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.
Accessories Soak in hot soapy water. Clean with a brush or sponge.

Cleaning the self-cleaning surfaces in the cooking compartment

The back wall in the cooking compartment is coated with a highly porous ceramic layer. This coating absorbs and disintegrates splashes from baking and roasting while the oven is in operation. The higher the temperature and the longer the oven is in operation, the better the result will be.

If splashes are still visible even after repeated use, proceed as follows:

  1. Clean the floor, ceiling and side panels of the cooking compartment thoroughly.
  2. Set ☑ 3D hot air.
  3. With the door closed, heat up the empty oven for approximately 2 hours at maximum temperature.

The ceramic coating is regenerated. When the cooking compartment has cooled down, remove the brown or white residue with water and a soft sponge.

Light discolouration of the coating does not affect automatic self-cleaning.

Caution!

■ Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or destroy the highly porous coating.
■ Never treat the ceramic coating with oven cleaner. If oven cleaner accidentally gets onto it, remove it immediately with a sponge and plenty of water.

Cleaning the cooking compartment floor, ceiling and side walls

Use a dish cloth and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution.

If there are heavy deposits of dirt, use a stainless steel scouring pad or oven cleaner. Only use when the cooking compartment is cold. Never treat the self-cleaning surfaces with a scouring pad or oven cleaner.

Energy and environment tips

Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and roasting in the oven and when cooking on the hob, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy with your oven

■ Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the operating instruction tables.
■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They absorb the heat particularly well.
■ Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while cooking, baking or roasting.
It is best to bake more than one cake, one after the other. The oven is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf tins next to each other.
■ For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.

Saving energy with the gas hob

■ Always use a saucepan which is the correct size for your food. A larger, less full saucepan requires a lot of energy.
■ Always place a suitable lid on the saucepan.
■ The gas flame must always be in contact with the base of the saucepan.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

BOSCH HGV745257N - Environmentally-friendly disposal - 1

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Tested for you in our cooking studio

Here you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for them. We will show you which type of heating and which temperature are best suited for your dish. You can find information about suitable accessories and the height at which they should be inserted. There are also tips about cookware and preparation methods.

Notes

■ The values in the table always apply to dishes placed into the cooking compartment when it is cold and empty.

Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do so. Do not line the accessories with greaseproof paper until after they have been preheated.

■ The times specified in the tables are guidelines only. They will depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■ Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be obtained as special accessories from specialist retailers or from the after-sales service.

Before using the oven, remove any unnecessary accessories and ovenware from the cooking compartment.

■Always use oven gloves when taking hot accessories or ovenware out of the cooking compartment.

Cakes and pastries

Baking on one level

When baking cakes, the best results can be achieved using ☐ Top/bottom heating.

When baking with 📄 3D hot air, use the following shelf heights for the accessory:

■ Cakes in tins: level 2
■ Cakes on trays: level 3

Baking on two or more levels

Use 3D hot air.

Shelf heights for baking on 2 levels:

■ Universal pan: level 3
■Baking tray: level 1
Shelf heights for baking on 3 levels:
■Baking tray: level 5

■ Universal pan: level 3
■ Baking tray: level 1

Baking trays that are placed in the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.

The tables show numerous suggestions for your dishes.

If you are baking with 3 cake/loaf tins at the same time, place these on the wire racks as indicated in the picture.

BOSCH HGV745257N - Baking on two or more levels - 1

natural_image Three identical empty storage trays with different sizes, arranged on a metal rack (no text or symbols visible)

Baking tins

It is best to use dark-coloured metal baking tins.

Baking times are increased when light-coloured baking tins made of thin metal or glass dishes are used, and cakes do not brown so evenly.

If you wish to use silicone baking tins, use the information and recipes provided by the manufacturer as a guide. Silicone baking tins are often smaller than normal tins. The amount of mixture and recipe instructions may differ.

Tables

The tables show the ideal type of heating for the various cakes and pastries. The temperature and baking time depend on the amount and composition of the mixture. This is why temperature ranges are given in the tables. You should try the lower temperature first, since a lower temperature results in more even browning. You can increase the temperature next time if necessary.

If you preheat the oven, the baking time is shortened by 5 to 10 minutes.

Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section following the tables.

Baking tips

You wish to bake according to your own recipe.Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
How to establish whether sponge cake is baked through.Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, stick a cocktail stick into the cake at the highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
The cake collapses.Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but is lower around the edge.Do not grease the sides of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
The cake goes too dark on top. Place it lower in the oven, select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little longer.
The cake is too dry. When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a cocktail stick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good, but is soggy on the inside (sticky, streaked with water).Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. For cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs and then place the topping on top. Please follow the recipe and baking times.
The cake is unevenly browned. Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Bake delicate pastries on one level using Top/bottom heating. Protruding greaseproof paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always cut greaseproof paper to fit the baking tray.
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light. Place the cake one level lower the next time.
The fruit juice overflows. Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
Small baked items made out of yeast dough stick to one another when baking.There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for the baked items to expand well and turn brown on all sides.
You were baking on several levels. The items on the top baking tray are darker than that on the bottom baking tray.Always use 3D hot air to bake on more than one level. Baking trays that are placed in the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
Condensation forms when you bake moist cakes.Baking may result in the formation of water vapour, which escapes above the door. The steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adjacent units. This is a natural process.

Meat, poultry, fish

Ovenware

You may use any heat-resistant ovenware. The universal pan is suitable for large roasts.

Glass ovenware is the most suitable. Ensure that the lid of the roasting dish fits well and closes properly.

Add a little more liquid when using enamelled roasting dishes.

With roasting dishes made of stainless steel, browning is not so intense and the meat may be somewhat less well cooked. Increase the cooking times.

Information in the tables:

Ovenware without a lid = open

Ovenware with a lid = closed

Always place the ovenware in the centre of the wire rack.

Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.

Roasting

Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the ovenware with approx. 12 cm of liquid.

Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.

The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if cooked in glass ovenware.

Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher temperature and/or a longer cooking time.

Grilling

When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes, before placing the food into the cooking compartment.

Always grill with the oven door closed.

As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent and juicy.

Turn the food you are grilling after 23 of the time.

Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.

Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack. If you are grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing it in the centre of the wire rack.

The universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. The meat juices are collected in the pan and the oven is kept cleaner.

When grilling, do not insert the baking tray or universal pan at level 4 or 5. The high heat distorts it and the cooking compartment can be damaged when removing it.

The grill element switches on and off continually. This is normal. The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.

Meat

Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.

When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the meat juices.

After cooking, wrap sirloin in aluminium foil and leave it to rest for 10 minutes in the oven.

For roast pork with a rind, score the rind in a crossways pattern, then lay the roast in the dish with the rind at the bottom.

PoultryThe weights indicated in the table refer to oven-ready poultry (without stuffing).Place whole poultry on the lower wire rack breast-side down.Turn after 23 of the specified time.Turn roasts, such as rolled turkey joint or turkey breast, halfway through the cooking time. Turn poultry portions after 23 of the time.For duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of the wings. This allows the fat to run out.Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter, salted water or orange juice.

Fish

Turn the pieces of fish after 23 of the time.

Whole fish does not have to be turned. Place the whole fish in the oven in its swimming position with its dorsal fin facing

upwards. Placing half a potato or a small ovenproof container in the belly of the fish will make it more stable.

If you are grilling directly on the wire rack, the universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. The liquid is then collected, thereby keeping the oven cleaner.

Tips for roasting and grilling

The table does not contain information for the weight of the joint.Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How to tell when the roast is ready.Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling is partly burnt.Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear and watery.Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted.This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on the fronts of adjacent units.

Bakes, gratins, toast with toppings

If you are grilling directly on the wire rack, the universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. This keeps the oven cleaner.

Always place the ovenware on the wire rack.

How well cooked the bake is will depend on the size of the dish and the height of the bake. The figures in the table are only average values.

Drying

With 3D hot air, you can dry foods brilliantly.

Use unblemished fruit and vegetables only and wash them thoroughly.

Drain off the excess water, then dry them.

Line the universal pan and the wire rack with greaseproof or parchment paper.

Turn very juicy fruit or vegetables several times.

Remove fruit and vegetables from the paper as soon as they have dried.

Preserving

For preserving, the jars and rubber seals must be clean and intact. If possible, use jars of the same size. The information in the table is for round, one-litre jars.

Caution!

Do not use jars that are larger or taller than this. The lids could crack.

Only use fruit and vegetables in good condition. Wash them thoroughly.

The times given in the tables are a guide only. The time will depend on the room temperature, number of jars, and the quantity and temperature of the contents. Before you switch off the appliance or change the cooking mode, check whether the contents of the jars are bubbling as they should.

Preparation

  1. Fill the jars, but not to the top.
  2. Wipe the rims of the jars, as they must be clean.
  3. Place a damp rubber seal and a lid on each jar.
  4. Seal the jars with the clips.

Place no more than six jars in the cooking compartment.

Making settings

  1. Insert the universal pan at level 2. Arrange the jars on it so that they do not touch each other.
  2. Pour 12 litre of hot water (approx. 80 °C) into the universal pan.
  3. Close the oven door.
  4. Set □ Bottom heating.
  5. Set the temperature to between 170 and 180 °C.

Preserving

Fruit

After approx. 40 to 50 minutes, small bubbles begin to form at short intervals. Switch off the oven.

After 25 to 35 minutes of residual heat, remove the preserving jars from the cooking compartment. If they are allowed to cool for longer in the cooking compartment, germs could multiply, promoting acidification of the preserved fruit.

Fruit in one-litre jars When it starts to bubble Residual heat
Apples, redcurrants, strawberries Switch off approx. 25 minutes
Cherries, apricots, peaches, gooseberries Switch off approx. 30 minutes
Apple purée, pears, plums Switch off approx. 35 minutes
VegetablesAs soon as bubbles begin to form in the jars, set the temperature back to between 120 and 140 °C. Depending onthe type of vegetable, heat for approx. 35 to 70 minutes. Switch off the oven after this time and use the residual heat.
Vegetables with cold cooking water in one-litre jars When it starts to bubble Residual heat
Gherkins - approx. 35 minutes
Beetroot approx. 35 minutes approx. 30 minutes
Brussels sproutsapprox. 45 minutes approx. 30 minutes
Beans, kohlrabi, red cabbageapprox. 60 minutes approx. 30 minutes
Peasapprox. 70 minutes approx. 30 minutes
Taking out the jarsCaution!
After preserving, remove the jars from the cooking compartment.Do not place the hot jars on a cold or wet surface. They could suddenly burst.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs

Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products prepared at high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips,

toast, bread rolls, bread or fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
General■ Keep cooking times to a minimum.■ Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too dark.■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
BakingWith top/bottom heating max. 200 °C.With 3D hot air or hot air max.180 °C.
BiscuitsWith top/bottom heating max. 190 °C.With 3D hot air or hot air max. 170 °CEgg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chipsSpread evenly over the baking tray, in a single layer. Bake at least 400 g per baking tray so that the chips do not dry out

Test dishes
