Loading the Bottom Rack
Place large items in the bottom rack. Load pots, pans and bowls upside-down. Figures 3
and 4 show typical mixed loads for the bottom rack.
Loading Extra Tall Items
If an item is too tall to be placed into the bottom rack even with the top rack in the raised
position, remove the empty top rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher until it stops
rolling. Pull the front of the rack upward and outward until the rollers are completely free
of the roller guides. Set the top rack aside. Push the roller guides back into the dishwasher.

powdered dishwashing detergent.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products.
This dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less detergent. 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 ll the detergent dispenser cup.
NOTICE
To avoid dishware damage, do not use too much detergent if your water supply is
soft. Using too much detergent in soft water may cause etching in glassware.
NOTE: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent.
Increase the amount of detergent, if necessary, to the least amount required to get
your dishware and kitchenware clean.

Winterizing Your 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.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow water to remain in your dishwasher sys-
tems 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 dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a
cycle or open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To avoid oor 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 Nozzles
Occasionally check the spray arms to ensure that the spray arm nozzles (holes) are
unobstructed. You must remove the spray arms to check them for obstruction.
To remove the top spray arm:
1. Remove the empty top rack from the dishwasher.
2. Turn the rack upside-down. The top spray arm is held in position by a locking
nut as shown in Figure 1. Turn the locking nut counter-clockwise 1/8 turn and
remove it, as shown in Figure 2 to release the spray arm.
3. Remove the spray arm as shown in Figure 3.
4. Look for obstruction in the spray nozzles.
5. If the spray nozzles need cleaning, ush them under running water.
To reinstall the top spray arm:
1. Return the top spray arm to its installed position.
2. Return the locking nut to its installed position and turn it 1/8 turn clockwise.
3. Return the top rack to the top rack roller guides.
To remove the bottom spray arm:
1. Remove the empty bottom rack from the dishwasher tub.
2. Grasp and lift the bottom spray arm as shown in Figure 4.
3. Look for obstruction in the spray nozzles.
4. If the spray nozzles need cleaning, ush them under running water.
To reinstall the bottom spray arm:
1. Return the bottom spray arm to its installed position and press it so that it snaps
into place.
2. Return the bottom rack to its installed position.

Check/Clean the Filter System
This dishwasher has a lter system that consists of a Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter
assembly and a Fine Filter. Select models have an additional Micro Filter. The lter
system is located on the inside of your dishwasher under the lower rack and is easily
accessible.
During normal use, the lter system is self-cleaning. You should occasionally inspect it
for foreign objects and clean it when necessary.
CAUTION
To avoid injury, do not reach into the large object trap with your ngers. The large object
trap could contain sharp objects.
To Remove the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter Assembly:
1. Remove the bottom rack.
2. Grasp the assembly as shown in Figure 5 and turn it counter-
clockwise 1/4 turn.
3. Lift out the assembly as shown in Figure 6.
4. Carefully examine the assembly. If you nd debris in the Large Object Trap, turn
it upside-down and gently tap it on a surface such as a countertop to dislodge
and remove the debris. Flush the Cylinder Filter clean by holding it under running
water.
To Remove the Fine Filter:
1. Lift the Fine Filter from the dishwasher oor as
shown in Figure
7 and ush it clean by holding it under running
water.
2. Remove the Micro Filter as shown in Figure 8
and ush it clean by holdin git under running
water.
To reinstall the lter system:
1. Return the Fine Filter to its installed position.
2. Place the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter
Assembly into its installed position in the
dishwasher oor.
3. Turn the ring handle clockwise 1/4 turn until it
is locked. The arrow
on the ring handle and the arrow on the Fine
Filter should point to each other, as shown by the circle in Figure 9.
4. Gently pull the ring handle to ensure that the assembly is locked into place.
NOTICE
To avoid possible dishwasher damage, do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive clean-
ers, scouring pads (metal or plastic), or abrasive cloths/paper towels to clean your
dishwasher’s exterior door panel. Your dishwashers exterior door panel can be
damaged by doing so.

THE NSF SYMBOL
A dishwasher or a dishwasher cycle that has the NSF symbol has been certied 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
Certication is available at the NSF website, http://www.nsfconsumer.org/home/appliances.asp.
Your dishwasher is NSF certied. The dishwasher cycles that are NSF certied are shown in the chart above. When these

Self Help
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 rell 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

White spots left on dishes
More rinse agent is needed. Go to the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on increasing the
amount of rinse agent dispensed.
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 dishwashers enclosure oor (see the Installation Manual). Filters may be clogged. Make certain the lter 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 nished 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.

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 hundred sixty ve
(365) days (i.e., 1 year) 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:
• 2 Year Limited Warranty: Bosch will repair or replace any component
that proves to be defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor
charges).
• 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 Product (upgraded models may be available to
you, in Boschs sole discretion, 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
purposes 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 un-authorized servicer; 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, .
Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been
specially trained on Bosch products, and who possess, in Bosch’s opinion, a
superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are
independent entities and are not agents, partners, aliates 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 partys
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

workings); (3) adjustment, alteration or modication 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 failure to install the product in
strict conformity with local re and building codes and regulations; (5) ordinary
wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, 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, oods, res, 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, oors, 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
responsible for any structure and setting for the Product, including all electrical,
plumbing or other connecting facilities, for proper foundation/ooring, and for
any alterations including without limitation cabinetry, walls, oors, shelving,
etc.); and resetting of breakers or fuses. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW,
THIS WARRANTY SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO
PRODUCT, WHETHER THE 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
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY
FOR THE PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE.
IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL,

DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION TIME

EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH ARE DEFINITIVELY
CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY BY BOSCH, OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG
