DISHWASHER PREPARATION (continued)

CAUTION

When any covers are removed or the dishwasher is out of the cabinet, electrical power and sharp edges or points may be exposed.

Removing the Toe Panel

Your dishwasher will include either a Metal Toe Panel or a Plastic Base Access Panel with a Metal Toe Panel (model dependent).

Method A - Metal Toe Panel

The toe panel is loosely attached with tape. Remove the tape and pull the toe panel away from the dishwasher. Set the toe panel aside. It will be reinstalled later.

Method B - Plastic Base Access Panel with Metal Toe Panel

The plastic base access panel and toe panel are in place on the dishwasher, but are not attached. Remove the toe panel first, as shown in Figure 12, then remove the plastic base access panel, as shown in Figure 12.

Do not overtighten the 90° elbow. Doing so may damage the water inlet valve and cause a water leak.

Installing the 90° Elbow Fitting

NOTE: The 90° elbow fitting is not supplied with the dishwasher, and must be purchased separately. If the dishwasher’s hot water supply line is to be copper tubing, make certain the elbow has a compression fitting.

Apply Teflon tape or other pipe sealant when required. Orient the hot water supply connection leg of the elbow toward the channel opening in the dishwasher base. See Figure 13.

BSH Dishwasher specifications

Bosch Appliances has long been synonymous with quality and innovation, especially when it comes to their line of dishwashers. The Bosch BSH Dishwasher stands out in the competitive market, providing a combination of advanced technology, energy efficiency, and user-friendly features that cater to modern households.

One of the main features of the Bosch BSH Dishwasher is its superior cleaning performance. Equipped with Bosch's PrecisionWash technology, the dishwasher utilizes intelligent sensors that scan and check the progress of dishes throughout the wash cycle. This ensures that each item is thoroughly cleaned, regardless of how soiled it may be. The system directs the spray arms to focus on particularly dirty areas, enhancing overall cleaning efficiency.

In terms of capacity, the Bosch BSH Dishwasher offers flexible loading options with its adjustable racks. The RackMatic system allows users to effortlessly adjust the height of the upper rack on three different levels, accommodating taller items in the bottom rack. Furthermore, the dishwasher includes foldable tines and a specialized silverware basket, optimizing space for various dishware sizes and shapes.

Energy efficiency is another hallmark of the Bosch BSH Dishwasher. It is ENERGY STARĀ® certified, confirming its compliance with rigorous energy efficiency standards. The EcoSilence Drive motor operates quietly, producing as little as 44 decibels, which is comparable to the sound of a soft conversation. This means that you can run the dishwasher at any time without disrupting your household.

Additional technologies enhance the user experience. The Bosch BSH Dishwasher features a user-friendly control panel with a variety of wash cycles, including Auto, Heavy, and Sanitize options. The Sanitize cycle is particularly beneficial for homes with children, effectively eliminating bacteria and ensuring that dishes are not only clean but hygienically safe.

Finally, the interior of the Bosch BSH Dishwasher is designed for longevity and convenience. The stainless steel tub is resistant to staining and retains heat well, improving drying performance with the help of the AutoAir feature, which automatically opens the door at the end of the cycle to allow moisture to escape.

In summary, the Bosch BSH Dishwasher merges advanced cleaning technology with a focus on energy efficiency and user convenience. With features designed to enhance performance, flexibility, and quiet operation, it remains a top choice for families and individuals who prioritize cleanliness and efficiency in their kitchen appliances.
