Safety first

Avoid electrical panels, hot water, pumps and sharp debris. Switch off power and isolate water only if safe. If water leaks under the machine or a leak-protection warning appears, stop using it, turn off the water supply if safely accessible and contact Bosch. Stop for smoke, damaged wiring or a burning smell.

Common problems

What you noticeWhat to checkWhen to stop
Dishes are not cleanRefer to Bosch US general maintenance for accessible filter and spray-arm care, and check loading and detergent instructions in the E-Nr manual.Cleaning remains poor after approved maintenance or there is damage.
Water does not drainBosch’s drain troubleshooting starts with the filter. Do not reach into the pump or remove a cover without the matching manual; hidden sharp debris is possible.Standing water remains after safe, manual-approved checks.
Dishes stay wetThe official listing identifies CrystalDry for this model. Check loading and the correct documented cycle; avoid assuming another series uses the same drying controls.Drying remains poor or an electrical/heating fault is indicated.
Cycle or status indication is unclearCrystalDry is a model-confirmed drying feature; do not use unrelated dryer error explanations or attempt its internal repair. Photograph the exact display; match the full E-Nr and refer to the owner’s manual for control behaviour.A persistent warning, unusual sound, leak or repeated cycle stoppage occurs.
