Operating The Dishwasher - Bosch SHE66C Use And Care Manual

Operating the Dishwasher

Selecting the Proper Wash Cycle
Always make sure your dishware is dishwasher
safe. Refer to the Dishware Materials section of
this manual for guidance.
Power Scrub Plus
Cleans items having baked-on or hard dried-on
food soils. These items may require soaking or
hand scouring.
Auto
Takes the guesswork out of cycle selection! The
sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust
the cycle length, temperature and water changes
based on the soil load.
Regular
Thoroughly cleans large loads having loosely
attached normal soiling.
To avoid damage to delicate or heirloom
items do not wash them in your dishwasher.
Delicate/Economy (model SHE66C only)
For delicate or heirloom dishwasher and
silverware or other special items. Always make
sure that the items are dishwasher safe. Refer to
the Materials section of this manual for further
information. Hand washing may be the best
treatment of such items.
Quick Wash
For lightly soiled items with easy to remove food
soils.
Rinse and Hold
Allows you to rinse the food soil off of a partial
load and hold them in the dishwasher until there
is a full load.
More information on dishwasher cycles is located
in the Wash Cycle Information section of this
manual.
Selecting Wash Cycle Options
Pre Soak
(models SHE66C, SHX57C and SHV57C only)
To activate, select the Pre Soak button in addition
to one of the cycles listed above. When Pre Soak
is selected, heated water is distributed over the
dishes to allow hard to remove soils to loosen
before the actual wash begins.
Top Rack Only
This option allows you to save energy and water
by washing loads small enough to fill only the top
rack. To activate, select the Top Rack Only button
in addition to one of the cycles listed above.
When using the Top Rack Only feature, dishes
should only be loaded in the top rack.
Starting the Dishwasher
Open the dishwasher door far enough to expose
the control buttons.
Press the On/Off button.
Press the button for the desired wash cycle.
Shut the dishwasher door.
The dishwasher will start automatically and
continue operating until the end of the selected
cycle.
Once you start the dishwasher, leave the
dishwasher door shut until it finishes the cycle.
Interrupting a Cycle
NOTE : Should you need to interrupt a cycle (to
add or remove an item, to add detergent, etc.), it
is best to do so within the first 30 minutes of the
cycle.
Open the dishwasher door far enough to expose
the control buttons.
Press the On/Off button.
WARNING
You could be seriously scalded if you open
the dishwasher door quickly during a wash
or rinse cycle. Do not fully open the
dishwasher door for at least 10 seconds or
until water noises stop.
Wait at least ten seconds or until water noises
stop before opening the dishwasher door.
To resume the cycle, press the On/Off button and
shut the dishwasher door.
