IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: Please READ
and SAVE this information
WARNING
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 in the following pages.
Severe product damage and/or injury could result from the use of unqualified service technicians or non-original
replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by a qualified service technician using only original equipment
factory replacement parts.
Electrical shock or fire 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
unless you are certain the electrical supply has been correctly installed or the dishwasher has been properly
grounded.
Never use harsh chemicals to clean your dishwasher. Some chloride-containing products can damage your dish-
washer and may present health hazards!
Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of 6 for soil removal and sanitation efficacy.
There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles on a certified machine have passed the sanitiza-
tion performance test.
NOTICE
Never use steam cleaning products to clean your dishwasher. The manufacturer will not be liable for the possible
damages or consequences.
It is highly recommended for the end user to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incoming water
supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instructions or contact your
installer for more information.
NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock, or serious injury, observe the following:
1 This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and under-
stand all instructions before using the dishwasher.
2 This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding conduc-
tor 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 elec-
trical requirements.
3
Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware.
4 Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach
of children.
5 When loading items to be washed:
• Locate sharp items so 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. For plastic
items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.
• Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.
3
6 Do not abuse, sit or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.
7 To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.
8 When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents/legal
guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
9 Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two
weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system
that has been unused for two weeks or longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
10
Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding.
11
To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
12 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.
13 For a cord-connect appliance:
• This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appli-
ance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance, if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Adding Detergent and Rinse Aid
Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing
detergent or detergent tabs.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent with
soft water may cause etching in glassware.
This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon
(15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1
tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely fill the deter-
gent dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent. Increase the amount if necessary to
the least amount required to get your kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the
amount of detergent recommended in Table 1.
Adding Detergent
1 tablespoon (15ml) will clean most loads (see Figure 6).
Do not use more than 3 tablespoons (45ml).
Do not over fill the detergent dispenser.
When using detergent tabs, lay them flat to avoid contact with the cover.
To Close
Place finger as shown in Figure 7.
Slide cover fully left.
Push rear end of the cover down firmly until it clicks.
To Open
Push the blue button inward (not down) as shown in Figure 8.
Cover will slide open.

Rinse Aid
To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse aid, even if your detergent contains a
rinse aid or drying additive.
Note: The dishwasher indicates low rinse aid by turning on the Refill Rinse Aid indicator LED (for
units without a display) or symbol (for units with a display).
If this light is on, you need to refill the rinse aid dispenser by following the directions below.
Adding Rinse Aid
Open the rinse aid reservoir and add liquid rinse aid by pouring over the arrow.
Turn the arrow to adjust the amount of rinse aid dispensed (see Figure 9). Wipe up any
excess rinse aid that may puddle when the dispenser reservoir is full.
The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is shut.
Dishwasher Cycles and Options
Wash Cycles (model dependent)
Heavy: Best for cleaning items with baked-on food or grease. These dishes would normally require soaking.
Auto: With our most complex soil sensing capability, this cycle is perfect for use with mixed loads of dishware
and varying amounts of food soil. This is the most flexible cycle and is a good choice for everyday use.
Normal: Thoroughly cleans a full load of normally soiled dishes.
Note: The Energy Guide Label was based on this soil sensing cycle with all available options turned off. As prescribed
in the energy test procedure, the unit was tested without any Rinse Aid in the Rinse Aid dispenser. A single dose of
detergent was used in the Detergent Dispenser, with no detergent used in the prewash. The test was conducted with
the upper rack in the lowest position.
Express: Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall wash time. Use this cycle to clean glasses and dessert
dishware that may need to be reused at the same event.
Half Load: Reduces the energy and water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill approxi-
mately half of the dishwasher’s capacity.
Wash Cycle Options
Delay Start (model dependent): This option allows you to delay the start time of your dishwasher up to 19 hours.
Sanitize: The Sanitize feature is available only when running the Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load cycles. Select
one of these cycles, press the “Sanitize Option” button and then press Start to activate the Sanitation features. The
technical sanitation measures may also improve the drying results. The sanitize LED or symbol will light at the
end of the cycle when sanitation requirements are met.
Note: The dishwasher automatically defaults to Auto Wash when turned off and back on. If you used the sanitize option
in your last cycle, the dishwasher will default to Auto Wash with the Sanitize option selected when you turn it on.
12
Wash Cycle Information
Note: To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control” where the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust
the cycle length, temperature and water changes based on the amount of food soil and the incoming water tempera-
ture. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently.
Wash cycle times are based on 120°F water supply. If your household water supply is different than 120°F, your
dishwasher’s cycle times may be impacted.
Note: Only sanitizing cycles (Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load) have been designed to meet the requirements of 6 for
soil removal and sanitization efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles have passed san-
itization performance tests.

Care and Maintenance
Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of the dishwasher require occasional maintenance. The maintenance
tasks are easy to do and will ensure continued superior performance from your dish-
washer.
Wiping up spills and splash-outs
Water may occasionally splash out of your dishwasher, particularly if you interrupt a
cycle or open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To avoid floor damage and possibly
mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
Clean the stainless steel inner door and tub
Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel regularly to remove debris that may col-
lect from normal loading. If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel, make sure the
rinse agent is full and functioning properly.
Check and clean spray arm nozzles
Remove the top spray arm by first removing the empty top rack from the dishwasher.
Turn the rack upside down. The top spray arm is held in position by a locking nut as
shown in Figure 10. Turn the locking nut counterclockwise and remove it to release the
spray arm. Look for obstruction in the spray nozzles. If the spray nozzles need clean-
ing, flush them under running water.
To reinstall the top spray arm, place it back in position and return the lock-
ing nut to its install position. Turn the locking nut clockwise to secure.
Return the top rack to the top rack roller guides.
Remove the bottom spray arm by first removing the empty bottom rack
from the dishwasher. Grasp and lift the spray arm as shown in Figure 11.
Look for obstruction in the spray nozzles. If the spray nozzles need clean-
ing, flush them under running water.
To reinstall the bottom spray arm, return the bottom spray arm to the
installed position and press it until it snaps into place. Return the bottom
rack to the installed position.
Check and clean the filter system
The filter system consists of a Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter assembly, a Fine Filter
and a Micro Filter. The filter system is located on the inside of your dishwasher under
the lower rack and is easily accessible. During normal use, the filter system is self-
cleaning. You should occasionally inspect it for foreign objects and clean it when nec-
essary.

To remove the Large Object Trap, remove the bottom rack. Grasp the assembly
and turn it counterclockwise. Lift the assembly out.
Carefully examine the assembly. If you find debris in the Large Object Trap,
turn it upside-down and gently tap it on a flat surface to dislodge and remove
debris.
Remove the Micro Filter as shown in Figure 13.
Flush the Micro Filter and Fine Filter clean by holding them under running water.
To reinstall the filter system, return the Micro Filter to the installed position. Place the Large Object Trap/Cylin-
der Filter Assembly and Fine Filter into the installed position. Turn the locking nut clockwise until it is locked.
The arrow on the ring handle and the arrow on the Fine Filter should point at each other.
Clean the exterior door panel
Colored doors: use only a soft cloth 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 and then wipe the surface.
Clean the door gasket
Regularly clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles and other debris. Also clean the door
seal, located inside the dishwasher at the bottom of the door.
Winterizing your unit
If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended period of time in a location that experiences freezing tempera-
tures (holiday home or through a vacation period), have your dishwasher winterized by an authorized profes-
sional service. Turn your household water supply to the dishwasher off when on extended vacation or when
dishwasher will not be used for more than 1 month.

Warranty Information
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to: The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances Corporation (Bosch®) in this State-
ment of Limited Product Warranty applies only to Bosch® dishwashers (“Product”) sold to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the
Product was purchased: (1) for your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal house-
hold purposes; (2) new at retail (not a display, “as is”, or previously returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use; and (3) within the
United States or Canada, and has at all times remained within the country of original purchase. The warranties stated herein apply only to the
first purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.
• Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for Bosch® to notify
you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts: Bosch® warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hun-
dred sixty five (365) days from the date of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled,
tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. Labor and shipping costs are included in this basic coverage.
Extended Limited Warranty: Bosch® also provides these additional limited warranties:
• 5 Year Limited Warranty on Electronics: Bosch® will repair or replace any Bosch® microprocessor or printed circuit board if it proves to be
defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges).
• 5 Year Limited Warranty on Dish Racks: Bosch® will replace the upper or lower dish rack (excluding rack components), if the rack proves
defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges).
• Lifetime Warranty against Stainless Steel Rust Through: Bosch® will replace your dishwasher with the same model or a current model that is
substantially equivalent or better in functionality, if the inner liner should rust through (excludes labor charges).
• Bosch® will replace the stainless steel door if the door should rust through (excludes labor charges).
The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy: During this warranty period, Bosch® or one of its authorized service providers will repair your
Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in
materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then Bosch® will replace your Prod-
uct (upgraded models may be available to you, in the sole discretion of Bosch®, for an additional charge). All removed parts and components
shall become the property of Bosch® at its sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original part for pur-
poses of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts. Bosch®’s sole liability and responsibility hereunder
is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a Bosch®-authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and
property damage concerns, Bosch® highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an unauthorized ser-
vicer; Bosch® will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone
other than an authorized service provider work on your Product,
THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Autho-
rized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on Bosch® products, and who possess, in the opinion
of Bosch®, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, part-
ners, affiliates or representatives of Bosch®). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch® will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the
Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous,
threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, Bosch® would still pay for labor and parts
and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other
special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
Out of Warranty Product: Bosch® is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, pro-
rates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired.
Warranty Exclusions: The warranty coverage described herein excludes all defects or damage that are not the direct fault of Bosch®, including
without limitation, one or more of the following: (1) use of the Product in anything other than its normal, customary and intended manner
(including without limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction
with air or water-going vessels); (2) any party’s willful misconduct, negligence, misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure
to maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions, mishandling, unauthorized service (includ-
ing self-performed “fixing” or exploration of the appliance’s internal workings); (3) adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind; (4) a
failure to comply with any applicable state, local, city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes, regulations, or laws, including fail-
ure to install the product in strict conformity with local fire and building codes and regulations; (5) ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liq-
uid, grease accumulations, or other substances that accumulate on, in, or around the Product; and (6) any external, elemental and/or
environmental forces and factors, including without limitation, rain, wind, sand, floods, fires, mud slides, freezing temperatures, excessive
moisture or extended exposure to humidity, lightning, power surges, structural failures surrounding the appliance, and acts of God. In no
event shall Bosch® have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for damage to surrounding property, including cabinetry, floors, ceilings, and
other structures or objects around the Product. Also excluded from this warranty are scratches, nicks, minor dents, and cosmetic damages on
external surfaces and exposed parts; Products on which the serial numbers have been altered, defaced, or removed; service visits to teach you
how to use the Product, or visits where there is nothing wrong with the Product; correction of installation problems (you are solely responsi-

CLAIM ARISES IN CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OR NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL
OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY LAW, WHETHER FOR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
