How Bosch Dishwashers Are Built
Bosch dishwashers dry by condensation: a hot final rinse warms the dishes and moisture condenses on the cooler stainless steel tub walls instead of being baked off by a bottom heating element. Source: Bosch - Tips to Maximize Drying
What Bosch Says to Check First
- Dishwasher leaking. When the leak-protection code appears, water has reached the base safety switch, so Bosch says to shut off the water supply before seeking service. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes
- Dishwasher odor. Bosch blames food particles trapped in the filter, so wash the filter, clear the spray arms, and run a cleaner and descaler periodically. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Smells
