Regenerating salt
To ensure high-quality dishwashing, softened water should be used. In a regular water supply, hard water flows. You can make it soft using special salt, which is poured into the appropriate container. The amount of salt you add depends on the chemical composition of the water in your home. You should find out the relevant information from your water department. In some machines, like Bosch equipment, according to the instructions for the Bosch dishwasher, the Agu-Sensor system is provided, with the help of which chemical composition water is determined independently.
Filling with regenerating salt is carried out in the following way. Open the appropriate salt container. By using special device pour the product inside. First, you need to pour 1 liter of water into the same cavity. You need to add enough salt to completely fill the tank. This is about one and a half kilograms. To prevent metal corrosion, salt should be added immediately before washing dishes. The remaining salt on the machine should be removed and ensure that the reservoir is tightly closed. The salt reservoir in machines looks different, pay attention to this when reading the instructions for your dishwashers.
* Corresponds to the salt reservoir in the Electrolux dishwasher instructions.
Rinse aid
To give a unique shine to your glasses, as well as remove excess stains on your cutlery, you need to use a special rinse aid. It is recommended to fill the rinse aid using the following method. Open the lid of the rinse aid reservoir 30, holding it by the small elevation 2, and lightly press point 1. Fill in the rinse aid. Close the tank. At the same time, a click should be heard - an indicator of a tightly closed tank.
Detergents
For washing dishes in dishwashers special products are used in liquid, powder or tablet form. You should not use detergents without phosphate components, otherwise sediment will remain on the dishes. Dishwashing detergent is placed in compartment 31. The quantity of the loaded substance is always indicated on the packaging container. Use compressed detergents only for intensive washing of dishes, since easy mode they do not have time to demonstrate their cleaning properties and do not dissolve well. In this case, it is better to use powder. If necessary, you can add it twice. It is recommended that if the dishes are not too dirty, put less detergent in the dishwasher than what is written on the packaging. Pay attention to the location of the compressed substances in the dishwasher: in the basket with spoons, forks, knives or in the detergent reservoir.

4. Operating instructions
Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows:
Adjust the water softening system;
Add regeneration salt;
Add rinse aid and detergent.
4.1 Using a water softening system
The dishwasher is rated for water hardness level 3 (medium hardness 41-60°dF-24-31°dH).
When using medium hard water, the regeneration salt container must be filled again after approximately 20 wash cycles. The salt container can hold approximately 1.7 kg of salt per grain. Some models are equipped with an optical salt remaining indicator. On these models, the salt container lid contains a green float that moves down with the salt level. When the green float can no longer be seen through the transparent lid, the container must be filled with salt again. The container is located at the base of the dishwasher. After removing the lower basket, unscrew the lid of the salt container by turning it counterclockwise and pour in salt using the funnel provided with the dishwasher. Before screwing on the lid, remove any remaining salt from the screw. 
When using the dishwasher for the first time, in addition to salt, you must add one liter of water per container.
Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the lid is securely closed. A mixture of water and detergent should neverpenetrate the salt container as this will jeopardize the effect
water regeneration systems. In case of this error,
the warranty will be void.
ANDUse salt specifically intended for
dishwasher. When using salt tablets, do not fill the container
fully.
Do not use table salt , since it contains insoluble substances which,Over time, they can damage the water softening system.
When necessary, refill the regeneration salt container before
started washing.
There should be excess saltimmediately removed with water; long-termthe presence of salt in the tank can lead to corrosion.
Be careful not to confuse detergent packets with salt; additiondetergent in salt container will damage water softening system.
SETTING UP A WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
The dishwasher is equipped with a device for the user to adjust the water softening system according to the hardness of the local water.
According to the machine model, the regulator can be located:
in plastic that locks the ring located on right side, inside
dishwasher;
- in the water softener, under the lid.
There are 5 adjustment values:
WATER HARDNESS TABLE
Contact your local water utility department for information regarding the hardness of your water.
4.2 Using rinse with detergent
Detergent and rinse are located in compartments on the inside of the door: detergent department- on the left, and rinse aid department- on right. 
With the exception of the soak program (SOAK), before each wash cycleyou need to add the required amount of detergent into the detergent compartment. Rinse aid in another compartment, as needed.
ADDING RINSE AID
Rinse aid helps food dry faster and prevents streaks from forming; The machine automatically adds rinse aid to the water during the final rinse cycle, from a container located on inside doors.
Open the door.
Rotate the container lid counterclockwise 1/4 turn and remove it.
Add rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc).
The optical level indicator on the side of the cover should be
completely darkened. Refill the rinse aid when the optical level indicator becomes clear again, or when the warning light comes on.
Replace the cover and screw the cap clockwise.
Use a cloth to remove excess rinse aid, which may cause excess foam to form.
ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID SUPPLY
The dishwasher is designed for medium-hard water. However, this can be changed by adjustment, turning the supply control to the desired position: the amount of rinse aid supplied is proportional to the position of the selector.
The setting should be increased when washed dishes appear dull or coated with scale.
- To regulate the flow of rinse aid, unscrew the lid of the container.
- Use a screwdriver to turn the rinse aid control to the desired position.
- Screw on the cap by turning it clockwise.
- The amount of rinse aid should be increased if washed dishesappear dull or covered in limescale stains.
ADDING DETERGENT
To open the detergent lid, press the button lightly P. Add detergent and close the lid tightly. During the wash cycle, the feed is automatic. 
When a program is selected HIGHEST QUALITY, in addition to the normal dose of detergent, it is necessary to add an additional amount inside the compartment G or H.
Use only detergents specifically designed for dishwashers. ForFor optimal cleaning, it is important to use high-qualitydetergent.
Detergent packets should be sealed and stored in a dry place forprevent the formation of lumps that could adversely affect washing results. Once the detergent packets are opened, they should not be stored for long, otherwise the detergent will lose its effectiveness.
Do not use detergents intended for hand washing dishes.because they produce a lot of foam and can negativelyaffect the operation of the dishwasher.
Add the correct amount of detergent. Using too little detergent results in partial removal of dirt from dishes, while too much detergent is wasteful and does not improve washing results. The market offers liquid and powder detergents with differentchemical composition, which may contain phosphates, or bewithout phosphate, but contain natural enzymes.
Detergents containing phosphates more effective againstfat and starch at temperatures above 60°C.
Detergents with enzymes, are also effective at more low temperatures (40 to 55°C) and are more easily degraded by microorganisms. With detergents containing enzymes it is possible to obtain results at low temperatures comparable to those that can be achieved using traditional detergents at 65°C.
• Detergent tablets are also available which ensure that no salt orrinse aid In some cases, these detergents may not providegood results, especially with short or low-temperature washes.
If washing problems occur (for example, white coating on dishes,dirty on dishes), we recommend returning to regular detergents (granulated salt, powder detergent and liquid rinse aid).
However, please note that upon returning to using regular salt,several washing cycles are required before the system is restoredagain, so that traces of the white coating can still be found ontank and dishes. If the problem persists for too long, contact the technical assistance center.
• When using detergent in tablet form (meaning that weWe recommend using three separate products: detergent, salt andrinse aid), place the tablets in the rack cutlery. Innings, the detergent is not carried out completely induring the wash cycle. This means that the tablethas not completely dissolved, this is causedas follows:
not enough detergent released during the cycle, with poor washing results;
detergent gets stuck in and is releasedduring the final rinse cycle.
Introducing detergent into the rinse aid compartment, even in liquid form, will harm the dishwasher.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following guidelines: types of cookware which is loaded into the washing machine .
There are no restrictions on washing dishes at all,but in some cases it is necessary to take into account their characteristics.
Before loading food into baskets, you must:

To verify this, just study the responses of customers who already have a Bosch dishwasher in their kitchen. These reviews indicate that Bosch is distinguished by a very serious approach to business and the interests of its consumers.
Advantages of Bosch kitchen helpers
The latest models of appliances designed for washing dishes have undergone significant design improvements. In connection with this, the Bosch dishwasher began to have a large working space. Customer reviews confirm that it can hold one more set of dishes than other devices of similar sizes. At first glance, such a detail seems to be insignificant, but it provides more convenience during operation of the device.

Variety of models
Buying a dishwasher for a family of four will save almost two hundred hours over the course of a year. This is a strong argument in favor of the described household appliance.
All models of Bosch kitchen units are divided into full-size and compact (tabletop). In the first option, the height of the device will be 80 cm, and its depth and width will be 60 cm. Compact narrow machines have smaller dimensions, which are equal to 45 cm by 56 cm by 46 cm. This technique is called tabletop.
A Bosch dishwasher, 60 cm wide and deep, is capable of washing a significant amount of dishes, but at the same time it must be given special space in the kitchen. more space. When installing compact options no need to move furniture in search of treasured meters. But in terms of the volume of dishes placed in them, they are suitable, for example, for bachelors. Which dishwasher to choose is up to you, based on your existing needs.

This will allow you to correctly install one of the necessary programs, of which large-sized models contain from six to ten, and compact models contain from four to five. The difference in modes lies in the temperature and washing time. In the instructions for the unit you can also see the presence of a special program designed for cleaning fragile glassware.
Typically, the dishwasher heats the water to sixty-five to seventy degrees. But despite this, overly dirty pots and pans should be soaked before loading and washed a little by hand. Otherwise, the machine may not be able to do its job.
Cups and plates in the dishwasher are cleaned with strong water jets from the shower heads. To eliminate this, many Bosch models have a filter filled with
Drying process
When choosing Bosch dishwasher models, you need to pay attention to everything design features unit. Drying dishes is no exception. The thing is, washing is only half the battle.
The most economical and simplest method of drying is evaporation of moisture. Water is removed from the surface of the heated kitchen utensils, turning into condensation, and, rolling to the bottom, is discharged through a special drain. Some dishwasher models are equipped with a Turbo Dry system. It heats the air in the washing chamber and dries the dishes using the principle of a hair dryer.
However, drying is best achieved in models equipped with heat exchangers. It does not leave any streaks or stains on the dishes.
Additional functions
A very high-quality and multifunctional dishwasher is produced by Bosch. The indicators located on its front panel also include a timer for delayed start. Having installed right time start of work, you can safely go on a visit. Clean and dry dishes will be waiting for their owners upon their return.
Buyers are also pleasantly surprised by the presence of such a part as “aquastop” among the components. This is a special valve that helps protect neighbors from flooding. If the model has a large number of programs, then this will allow you to place more than just dishes in it. Such a device will wash refrigerator shelves and parts from food processor, baking sheets, microwave tray, etc.
Bosch has equipped its models with a program that allows crystal processing. You can safely place thin glass wine glasses in such dishwashers.
Probability of breakdowns
In order for the Bosch dishwasher to operate normally and without any interruptions, you will need to comply with the requirements specified by the manufacturer in the instructions for the device.
For example, it is worth constantly monitoring the absence of grease and scale on the rocker. And if they are present, the machine should be started without dishes. At the same time, detergent is loaded into it and the intensive washing mode is selected.
The Bosch appliance must only be used with special means. At the same time, after each wash it is necessary to check the filters. If food remains accumulate on them, these parts are removed and washed under hot running water. running water. Otherwise, your Bosch dishwasher will require repairs. Faults will affect the drain pump. It will be blocked by food debris.
According to the manufacturer's recommendations, constant monitoring of all sprinklers is required. They can also become clogged with crumbs or scale. This will significantly reduce the quality of the wash. If clogged, the sprinklers are removed and washed with running water.
Self-diagnosis
Control modules of modern technology are capable of providing information about errors that occur during operation. Bosch appliances - dishwashers - are no exception. They display errors in E0 format. The first character is the initial letter English word"error". Translated, it means “error.” The second character of this format is a number. It indicates an existing fault. Self-diagnosis is carried out when the device is turned on. Before starting operation, the dishwasher checks all its components and parts. And if, for example, it does not detect the presence of resistance in the winding, it will immediately issue the corresponding code.
Water leak
There are many error codes that the dishwasher display shows. However, most often consumers see the inscription “E15”. This malfunction concerns a water leak that the device detected in its housing. The reasons for such a breakdown may be different, but in any case you should not delay repairs. The presence of water in the housing will not lead to anything good.
Problems with drainage
The second most common inscription on the car indicator is “E24”. It means that the Bosch dishwasher is not draining water. To eliminate the malfunction, the siphon and filter located at the bottom of the unit must be checked. The blockage can also occur in drain hose. Sometimes error “E24” is issued after moving equipment. The cause of the malfunction in this case lies in the twisting of the drain hose.
There is also a problem with draining in case of error “E25”. The source of the problem in this case is a malfunction of the pump.
