If the Bosch SMS24AI01A dishwasher is not in a cavity and a side panel is accessible, the door hinge area must be covered for safety reasons. The covers are available as optional accessories from customer service or specialist outlets. If you need to remove the cover but cannot find the screws, check if the cover is clipped in place rather than screwed. If unsure, contact customer service for guidance.
