FAQs

How do I activate the SpeedPerfect+ function?

You can activate SpeedPerfect+ by pressing the dedicated button on the dishwasher control panel or remotely via the Bosch Home Connect app. Note that it is not compatible with the Prewash Express 45° and Express 65° programs.

What is the advantage of the Vario Hinge?

The Vario Hinge allows for more flexible installation by enabling the dishwasher door to lift slightly when opened. This minimizes gaps between furniture fronts, ensuring a seamless look in your kitchen, regardless of installation height.

How does the AquaStop system work?

AquaStop provides 24/7 leak protection. It features a double-walled hose and a safety valve. If a leak is detected, the system automatically stops the water supply and pumps out the remaining water, preventing water damage.

Can I use the Home Connect app if I don't have Wi-Fi?

No, the Bosch Home Connect app requires a stable Wi-Fi connection to communicate with your dishwasher and enable remote control and monitoring features.

How often should I clean the dishwasher filters?

It is recommended to clean the dishwasher filters at least once a week, or more often if you frequently wash heavily soiled dishes. This ensures optimal cleaning performance and prevents blockages.

What does the 'C' energy efficiency rating mean?

The 'C' rating on the energy efficiency scale (A to G) indicates a moderate level of energy consumption. While not the highest rating, it still represents compliance with current European standards for efficiency.

How can I make the dishwasher run quieter?

The dishwasher is equipped with an EcoSilence Drive for quiet operation. For even quieter performance, you can activate the 'Silence on demand' function via the Home Connect app, which reduces noise to a minimum for up to 30 minutes.

Troubleshooting

Dishwasher not starting

Check if the door is fully closed. Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Verify the water supply tap is open.

Dishes are not clean

Check for blockages in the spray arms and clean the filter. Ensure the dishwasher is not overloaded and that dishes are loaded correctly to allow water circulation. Select an appropriate wash program.

Dishes are not drying properly

Activate the 'Extra Dry' option for difficult-to-dry loads. Ensure rinse aid dispenser is full. Check if the door was opened too soon after the cycle finished.

Unusual noise during operation

Ensure spray arms are not hitting any dishes. Check that the load is stable and nothing is obstructing the drum. EcoSilence Drive is designed for quiet operation; persistent loud noises may require service.

InfoLight is not visible

Confirm the dishwasher is running a cycle and the 'InfoLight' feature is enabled in settings or via the Home Connect app. The light projects downwards, so ensure there are no obstructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Vario Hinge allows for flexible placement within cabinets of varying heights. Ensure the water supply, drainage, and electrical connections are safely and correctly installed according to local regulations.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Interior: Regularly wipe down the interior with a damp cloth. Remove any food debris from the filter system and spray arms. Run an empty hot cycle with dishwasher cleaner periodically.
  • Filter Maintenance: The filter system at the bottom of the tub should be cleaned weekly to ensure optimal performance. Rinse under running water and gently brush away debris.
  • Exterior: Clean the silver control panel and door with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • AquaStop: The AquaStop system requires no user maintenance but ensures leak protection for the lifetime of the appliance.
