Frequently Asked Questions (10)
How do I start a wash cycle on my Bosch dishwasher?
To start the dishwasher, open the door and press the On/Off button, then select a cycle and desired options, and close the door to begin the cycle. The dishwasher automatically begins running once the door is closed after a cycle has been selected. The dishwasher automatically defaults to Auto Wash when turned off and back on. (Page 12)
How do I cancel or reset a cycle that is already running?
Open the dishwasher door just far enough to expose the control panel, being careful of hot water that may splash out. Press and hold the two buttons labeled Cancel/Reset for 3 seconds, then close the door and wait about 1 minute while the dishwasher drains. After draining, open the door and press the On/Off button to start a new cycle. (Page 12)
How much detergent should I use in my Bosch dishwasher?
With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15ml) of detergent will clean most loads, and you should never use more than 3 tablespoons (45ml). The amount varies by cycle and water hardness — for example, the Heavy cycle with hard water requires 45ml, while the Delicate cycle with soft water requires only 15ml. If you do not know your water hardness, start with 15ml and increase only as needed. (Page 9)
Why are my dishes not drying properly?
Poor drying is most commonly caused by an empty rinse aid dispenser, improper loading (items nesting together), or the Extra Dry Heat feature not being activated. The Rinse and Hold cycle does not include drying, so if that cycle was selected, dishes will not be dried. Note that plastic and Teflon items do not typically dry as well as other materials due to their inherent properties. (Page 16)
How do I activate the Extra Dry Heat feature?
Press and hold the Auto button, then press and hold the On/Off button simultaneously. When the LED display window shows a '0' or '1', release both buttons, then press the Auto button until the display shows '1' to activate Extra Dry Heat. Press the On/Off button to save the setting. (Page 13)

How do I clean and maintain the dishwasher's filter system?
Remove the bottom rack and grasp the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter assembly, turning it counterclockwise to lift it out. Remove the Micro Filter and flush both the Micro Filter and Fine Filter under running water. To reinstall, return the Micro Filter first, then place the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter assembly and Fine Filter into position and turn the locking nut clockwise until locked, with the arrows on the ring handle and Fine Filter pointing at each other. (Page 14-15)
Which cycles support the Sanitize option?
The Sanitize feature is available only in the Heavy, Auto, and Normal wash cycles. Press the 'Sanitize Option' button to activate sanitation features during these cycles, and the sanitize symbol will light when sanitation requirements are met. The Sanitize option is not available for the Delicate, Express, or Rinse cycles. (Page 11)
How do I use the Delay Start feature?
Open the door and press the On/Off button, then select a cycle. Press and hold the Delay Start button and release it when the desired delay time is shown in the display window, then close the door to begin the countdown. The Delay Start option allows you to delay the start time of your dishwasher up to 19 hours. (Page 12)
What should I do if my dishwasher has an odor?
Odors are typically caused by food debris at the bottom of the dishwasher, food particles near the door seal, dishes left too long before running a cycle, residual water, or an obstructed drain hose. Clean the filters and door seal according to the care and maintenance section, and run a Rinse and Hold cycle if you do not intend to immediately wash the dishes. If the odor persists, run the Normal cycle, interrupt it, and place an 8oz cup of distilled white vinegar on the top rack, then finish the cycle. (Page 17)
What items should NOT be washed in the Bosch dishwasher?
Items not recommended for dishwasher use include acrylic, adhesive-joined pieces, bone-handled utensils, iron, pewter, brass, bronze, tin, and wood, as these can crack, rust, tarnish, warp, or separate. Non-dishware items such as paper products, plastic bags, and packing materials should never be loaded in the dishwasher. The dishwasher is intended only for cleaning standard household dishware and kitchenware. (Page 5-6)
