SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

WARNING

• Use this dishwasher only for its intended

function, which is the washing of household

dishware and kitchenware.

• This dishwasher is provided with a manual set

which includes Installation Instructions and

Use and Care Manual. Read and understand

all instructions before using the dishwasher.

• Use only detergents or wetting agents

recommended for use in a dishwasher, and

keep them out of the reach of childen.

• When loading items to be washed:

- Locate sharp items so that they are

not likely to damage the door seal.

- Load knives and other sharp utensils

with their HANDLES UP to reduce the

risk of cut-type injuries.

• Do not wash plastic items unless they are

marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent.

Misuse of the dishwasher can result

in serious injury or death. Do not use the

dishwasher in any way not covered in this

manual or for any purpose other than

those explained on the following pages.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded to a metal,

permanent wiring system, or an equipment

grounding conductor must be run with the circuit

conductors and connected to the equipment

grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.

See the Installation Instructions included with

this dishwasher for more information on electrical

requirements.

compartment when removing an old

dishwasher from service or discarding.

• To avoid floor damage and possible mold

growth, do not allow wet areas to remain

around or under the dishwasher.

• Protect your dishwasher from the elements.

Protect against freezing to avoid possible

damage to the fill valve. Damage caused by

freezing is not covered by the warranty.

Electrical shock could result if the

electrical supply for the dishwasher

covered in this manual is incorrectly

installed or if the dishwasher has been

improperly grounded. Do not use the

dishwasher covered in this manual if you

are not certain the electrical supply has

been correctly installed or the dishwasher

has been properly grounded.

WARNING

Severe product damage and/or injury could

result from the use of unqualified service

Winterizing Your Bosch

Dishwasher

If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended

period of time in a location that experiences

freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or

through a vacation period), have your dishwasher

winterized by an authorized service center.

Care and Maintenance

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow

water to remain in your dishwasher

systems through extended periods of

freezing temperatures. Freezing

temperatures can damage your

dishwasher.

Wiping Up Spills and Splash-out

Water may occasionally splash out of your Bosch

dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a cycle or

open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To

avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do

not allow wet areas to remain around or under the

dishwasher.

Check/Clean the Stainless Steel

Inner Door and Tub

Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel

regularly to remove debris that might collect there

from normal loading.

If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel tub

or inner door, make sure the rinse agent reservoir

is full.

Check/Clean the Spray Arm

To avoid possible diswasher damage, do

not use harsh chemicals, abrasive

cleaners, scouring pads (metal or plastic),

or abrasive cloths/paper towels to clean

your dishwasher’s exterior door panel.

Your dishwasher’s exterior door panel can

be damaged by doing so.

Colored Doors

Use only a soft cloth that is lightly dampened with

soapy water.

Stainless Steel Doors

Use a soft cloth with a non-abrasive cleaner

(preferably a liquid spray) made for cleaning

stainless steel. For the best results, apply the

stainless steel cleaner to the cloth, then wipe the

surface.

Clean the Door Gasket

Regularly clean the door gasket with a damp

cloth to remove food particles and other debris.

17

Water not pumped from dishwasher

Make certain the drain hose isn’t kinked, clogged,

or improperly installed. Make certain a portion of

the drain hose is at least 20 inches above the

dishwasher’s enclosure floor (see the Installation

Manual). Filters may be clogged. Make certain the

filter system isn’t clogged (see the Care and

Maintenance section of this manual). The kitchen

sink drain may be clogged; you may need a

plumber rather than a serviceman for the

dishwasher. If an air gap is installed at sink, it

may be clogged.

Detergent dispenser cover will not shut

You may not be correctly shutting the detergent

dispenser cover, or a cycle was not finished and

should be cancelled. Go to the Adding Detergent

and Rinse Agent section of this manual for

instructions on shutting the detergent dispenser

cover. Go to the Operating the Dishwasher

section of this manual for instructions on

canceling a cycle.

Streaks on glassware

Too much rinse agent is being dispensed. Go to

the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of

this manual for instructions on decreasing the

amount of rinse agent dispensed.

Rattling noises

Utensils may not be properly arranged.

Suds in dishwasher

You may have used the wrong type of

dishwashing detergent. Use only automatic

dishwasher detergents.

Unsatisfactory washing results

• Incorrect amount of detergent.

• Utensils incorrectly arranged or rack

overloaded.

• Spray arm rotation blocked by utensils.

• Spray arm nozzles need cleaning.

• Filters not properly fitted into position.

• Unsuitable cycle selected.

Dishwashers may occasionally exhibit problems

that are unrelated to a malfunction of the

dishwasher itself. The following information may

help you with a dishwasher problem without your

having to call a repair person.

Dishes do not dry

The rinse agent dispenser may be empty. Check

the rinse-aid dispenser and refill it if necessary.

Dishware drying can be accelerated and

enhanced by opening the dishwasher door slightly

and propping it open with the top rack.

Indicator light(s) do not come on

A fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker

tripped. Check the fuse or circuit breaker at your

fuse box/breaker box and replace the fuse or

reset the breaker if necessary.

Dishwasher does not start

The dishwasher door may not be properly shut.

Make certain the dishwasher door is shut and

latched.

Dishwasher runs a long time

If the dishwasher completes the cycle, but the run

time seems exceptionally long, it may be due to

cold incoming water. Before starting the

dishwasher, open the hot water faucet at the sink

nearest the dishwasher. Run the water until it

THE NSF SYMBOL

A dishwasher or a dishwasher cycle that has the NSF symbol has been certified by the NSF International to

meet very strict requirements of wash time and water temperature to ensure dishware and kitchenware

sanitization. These requirements are explained in the document NSF/ANSI 184, Residential Dishwashers.

More information on NSF Certification is available at the NSF website, http://www.nsfconsumer.org/home/

appliances.asp.

Your dishwasher is NSF certified. The dishwasher cycles that are NSF certified are shown in the chart

above. When these cycles are complete, the “Sanitized” indicator on your dishwasher control panel will

illuminate.

NOTE

: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the

“Sanitized” light or symbol may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher Installation Manual has information on the

recommended temperature for your household hot water supply.

NOTE

: Cycle duration and water consumption depend largely upon household water temperature and

wash load, factors over which the manufacturer has no control. Therefore, the times and quantities in this

charts are approximate.

Wash Cycle Information

Note: If the unit is out of rinse agent the OPTIDRY

TM

feature will automatically extend the cycle time by

approximately 10 minutes.

Note: If Additional Drying Heat is selected the cycle will be extended by approximately 20 minutes.
