Care and Maintenance

Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of your Bosch dishwasher require
occasional maintenance. The maintenance tasks
are easy to do and will ensure continued superior
performance from your Bosch dishwasher. These
tasks are:
• Winterizing Your Bosch Dishwasher
• Wiping up Spills and Splash-out
• Clean the Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
• Check/Clean the Spray Arm Nozzles
• Check/Clean the Filter System
• Clean the Exterior Door Panel
• Clean the Door Gasket
Winterizing Your Bosch
Dishwasher
If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended
period of time in a location that experiences
freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or
through a vacation period), have your dishwasher
winterized by an authorized service center.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow
water to remain in your dishwasher systems
through extended periods of freezing
temperatures. Freezing temperatures can
damage your dishwasher.
Wiping Up Spills and Splash-out
Water may occasionally splash out of your Bosch
dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a cycle or
open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To
avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do
not allow wet areas to remain around or under the
dishwasher.
Check/Clean the Stainless Steel
Inner Door and Tub
Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel
regularly to remove debris that might collect there
from normal loading.
If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel tub
or inner door, make sure the rinse agent reservoir
is full.
Check/Clean the Spray Arm
Nozzles
Occasionally check the spray arms to ensure that
the spray arm nozzles (holes) are unobstructed.
You must remove the spray arms to check them
for obstruction.
To remove the top spray arm:
1. Remove the
empty top
A
rack from
the
dishwasher.
2. Turn the
rack upside-
down. The
top spray
B
arm is held
in position
by a locking
nut as
shown in
Figure 23A.
Turn the
locking nut
counter-clockwise
1/8 turn and remove it, as shown in Figure
23B to release the spray arm.
3. Remove
the spray
arm as
shown in
Figure 24.
4. Look for
obstruction
in the
spray
nozzles.
5. If the spray nozzles need cleaning, flush
them under running water.
