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
refill 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 starting the dishwasher,
open the hot water faucet at the sink
nearest the dishwasher. Run the water
until it runs hot, then turn off the water
and start the dishwasher.
Machine cycle does not advance to
rinse
NOTE
: The Installation Manual that
came with your Bosch dishwasher will
help you with the following instructions.
The water supply line may be shut off.
Check the water supply valve and open it
if it’s shut.
Water not pumped from
dishwasher
Make certain the drain hose isn’t
kinked, clogged, or improperly installed.

dishwasher’s enclosure floor (see the
Installation Manual). Filters may be
clogged. Make certain the filter 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.
