FAQs

What is the energy efficiency class of this dishwasher?

This Bosch Series 6 dishwasher has an energy efficiency class of 'C'.

How do I use the Extra Dry option?

The Extra Dry option can be activated via the control panel or the Home Connect app. It increases the temperature during the final rinse and extends the drying phase for better results with difficult-to-dry items.

Can I download new wash programs?

Yes, you can download up to 10 specialized programs via the Bosch Home Connect app, allowing you to tailor the dishwasher's functions to specific needs, such as for heavily soiled cookware or delicate glassware.

What does the AquaStop system do?

The AquaStop system provides fail-safe leak protection. If a leak is detected, it automatically stops the dishwasher, pumps out water, and closes a valve near the tap, preventing water damage.

How quiet is the Silence Programme?

The Silence Programme significantly reduces operational noise to the lowest possible level, achieved through an adapted Eco 50°C programme, reduced spray pressure, and an extended cleaning phase.

Can I silence the dishwasher temporarily?

Yes, the 'Silence on Demand' function can be activated via the Bosch Home Connect App. It silences the dishwasher for up to 30 minutes by pausing operation while keeping the cycle running in the background.

How does the height-adjustable top basket work?

The top basket can be adjusted in height, creating more vertical space in the lower rack. This is particularly useful for fitting tall items like pots, pans, or large dishes.

Troubleshooting

Dishwasher not starting

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

Dishes are not clean

Check that the spray arms are not blocked and can rotate freely. Ensure the filter is clean and properly seated. Verify that you are using the correct detergent and that it is being dispensed correctly. Select an appropriate wash program for the level of soiling.

Dishes are not drying properly

Activate the 'Extra Dry' option for improved drying. Ensure rinse aid dispenser is filled. Check that tall items are not preventing water from draining effectively. Avoid unloading dishes immediately after the cycle finishes; allow them to cool slightly.

Dishwasher is making unusual noise

Ensure dishes are loaded correctly and not rattling against each other or the spray arms. Check for any foreign objects in the filter or spray arms. The EcoSilence Drive is designed for quiet operation, so excessive noise may indicate a blockage or loading issue.

Home Connect features not working

Verify that the dishwasher is connected to your Wi-Fi network and that your home internet is functioning. Ensure the Home Connect app is updated to the latest version. Try restarting your router and the dishwasher (by turning off power at the mains for a minute).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • Requires a standard household water supply connection.
  • Requires a standard electrical outlet.
  • Works with the Bosch Home Connect app, available for iOS and Android devices.

Care:

  • Interior Cleaning: Regularly clean the filter system at the bottom of the dishwasher. Remove food debris and rinse the filter under running water. Periodically run a dishwasher cleaner through an empty hot cycle to remove grease and limescale.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the silver control panel and the rest of the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
  • Spray Arms: Check the spray arms periodically for blockages. If holes are clogged, carefully remove and clean them with a toothpick or needle.
  • Loading: Avoid overcrowding the dishwasher and ensure no items obstruct the spray arms' rotation. Place tall items in the adjustable top basket or ensure they don't block water circulation.
