Operating the Dishwasher
Dishware Drying
At the end of the cycle the dishwasher will stop and a period of condensation drying will follow. After 12 - 15 minutes of drying:
•the cycle countdown display will read “0”.
•the “Sanitized” light may appear (except in the Rinse and Hold cycle). See section on Sanitization for more information.
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the “Sanitized” light may not illuminate. Your Bosch Dishwasher Installation Manual has information on the recommended temperature for your household hot water supply.
NOTE: To accelerate and enhance drying, open the dishwasher door, pull the top rack a few inches out of the dishwasher, and prop the dishwasher door against the top rack.

Unload the top rack.
If the Extra Tall Item Sprinkler was installed, return the dishwasher to its normal condition (see the Loading Extra Tall Items instructions in the “Loading the Dishwasher” section of this manual).
“Sanitized” Light
When the “Sanitized” light appears, it means that the dishware and kitchenware that was just washed has been sanitized according to the requirements of the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). For more information on NSF certification, go to the Wash Cycle Information section of this manual.
