FAQs
How do I use the Rackmatic system?
The Rackmatic system allows you to adjust the height of the top basket. There are usually three height settings. Simply pull the top basket forward, lift or lower it to the desired level, and push it back in. Consult your manual for specific lever or handle locations.
What is the purpose of Info Light?
Info Light is a small LED light projected onto the floor. It indicates when the dishwasher is running (usually red) and turns off when the cycle is complete, letting you know it's safe to open the door.
Can I download new wash programs?
Yes, through the Bosch Home Connect app, you can download specialized wash programs tailored to specific needs and save your most frequently used settings as a 'Favourite' program.
How does AquaStop prevent leaks?
AquaStop consists of a special double-walled supply hose, a safety valve, and a visual indicator. If a leak is detected, it automatically shuts off the water supply and pumps out any remaining water from the machine.
What is the energy efficiency rating?
This model has an energy efficiency class of C, which represents a good balance of performance and energy consumption according to the current EU energy labeling standards.
Do I need to provide my own cabinet front panel?
Yes, as this is a fully integrated model, you will need to purchase and attach a cabinet front panel that matches your kitchen's existing cabinetry for a seamless look.
How often should I clean the filters?
It is generally recommended to clean the filters at least once a month, or more frequently if you notice a decline in cleaning performance or if you frequently wash heavily soiled dishes.
Troubleshooting
Dishwasher not starting
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check that the door is fully closed and latched. Verify that the water supply is turned on.
Dishes not clean
Check that the spray arms are not blocked by large items and can rotate freely. Clean the filters regularly. Ensure you are using the correct amount and type of detergent and that it is fresh. Select an appropriate wash program for the level of soiling.
Dishes not dry
Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is full. Use the Extra Dry option for difficult-to-dry items. Ensure the dishwasher door is not opened too early after the cycle ends.
Unusual noises during operation
Check for any items that may have fallen to the bottom of the tub or are obstructing the spray arms. Ensure the dishwasher is level and stable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a fully integrated model, meaning it is designed to be built into your kitchen cabinetry and requires a custom front panel to match your existing units. Installation involves securing the dishwasher, connecting it to water supply and drainage, and electrical connection. The Vario Hinge system allows for flexible fitting within your cabinetry, minimizing visible gaps. Consult the user manual for detailed installation instructions.
Compatibility: This dishwasher is designed for standard full-size dishwasher installation spaces. It requires a dedicated water inlet, a drainage outlet, and a standard electrical connection. The Home Connect feature requires a Wi-Fi network and a smartphone or tablet with the Bosch Home Connect app installed.
Care: For optimal performance, regularly clean the filters located at the bottom of the dishwasher. It is also recommended to run an occasional cleaning cycle using a dishwasher cleaner to remove internal residue and maintain hygiene. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth as needed. Ensure the spray arms are free from blockages.
