Dishwasher Cycles And Options; Wash Cycle Information - Bosch SHE43RL5UC Use & Care Manual

Dishwasher Cycles and Options

Wash Cycles (model dependent)
Heavy Wash: Best for cleaning items with baked-on food or grease. These dishes would normally
require soaking.
Auto Wash: With our most complex soil sensing capability, this cycle is perfect for use with mixed
loads of dishware with varying amounts of food soil. This is the most flexible cycle and is a good choice
for everyday use.
Normal Wash: Thoroughly cleans a full load of normally soiled dishes.
Note: The Energy Guide Label was based on this soil sensing cycle will all available options turned off. As prescribed in
the energy test procedure, the unit was tested without any Rinse Aid in the Rinse Aid dispenser. A single dose of deter-
gent was used in the Detergent Dispenser, with no detergent used in the prewash. The test was conducted with the
upper rack in the lowest position.
Express Wash: Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall wash time. Use this cycle to clean
glasses and dessert dishware that may need to be reused at the same event.
Half Load: Reduces the energy and water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill
approximately half of the dishwasher's capacity.
Wash Cycle Options
Delay Start (model dependent): This option allows you to delay the start time of your dishwasher up
to 19 hours.
Sanitize: The Sanitize feature is available only in the Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load cycles. Press the
"Sanitize Option" button to activate the Sanitation features during these cycles. The technical sanitation
measures may also improve the drying results. The sanitize LED or symbol
requirements are met.
Note: The dishwasher automatically defaults to Auto Wash when turned off and back on. If you used the sanitize option
in your last cycle, the dishwasher will default to Auto Wash with the Sanitize option selected when you turn it on.

Wash Cycle Information

Note: To save energy, this dishwasher has a "Smart Control" where the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust
the cycle length, temperature and water changes based on the amount of food soil and the incoming water tempera-
ture. The "Smart Control" makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently.
Wash cycle times are based on 120°F water supply. If your household water supply is higher than 120°F, your dish-
washer's heating time may be reduced and the "Sanitized" light or symbol may not illuminate

Note: Only sanitizing cycles (Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load) have been designed to meet the requirements of 6 for
soil removal and sanitization efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles have passed san-
itization performance tests.
