Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
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
Models with zeolite drying store heat and moisture in a mineral chamber and release warm dry air back into the tub, and dishware blocking the zeolite intake can stop the cycle with a code. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Owner's Manual (SHV78B73UC)
What Bosch Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not cleaning. Bosch points first to cleaning the filter, then checking loading so tall items do not block the spray arms, adding rinse aid, and clearing clogged spray arm holes. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Not Cleaning Dishes
- 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
Reading a Bosch Dishwasher Error Code
