Bosch Dishwashers Series 6

The appliance's electronics have detected an internal fault or issue, indicated by all LEDs being illuminated or blinking.

The dishwasher does not turn on or respond to commands, potentially due to a software update in progress, a power-related issue, or an open door.

The dishwasher unexpectedly pauses or stops operating mid-cycle. This can be caused by the door opening, interruptions to power or water supply, or a physical obstruction.

Persistent coloured films appear inside the appliance or on stainless steel tableware. These are caused by substances in vegetables, tap water, or metal components.

The lid of the detergent dispenser is unable to close, usually because it's blocked by sticky detergent residue.

Undissolved detergent remains visible inside the appliance, not just in the dispenser, after a wash cycle.

Detergent or a tablet remains in the dispenser or collecting tray after the wash cycle, indicating it wasn't dispensed or rinsed out properly.

The appliance door is unable to close, possibly due to the door lock mechanism or an obstruction related to how the appliance is installed.

The appliance door is difficult or impossible to open, which typically happens when the childproof lock feature is engaged.

The display shows E:20-60 alternately, indicating that the appliance has detected a calcified heating element, suggesting a build-up of limescale.

The display shows E:30-00 alternately, indicating that the water protection system has been activated, usually due to a detected leak or overfill.

The display shows E:31-00 alternately, indicating that the water protection system has been activated, usually due to a detected leak or overfill.

The display shows E:32-00 alternately, or the water supply indicator light illuminates, signaling a problem with the water supply to the appliance.

The display shows E:34-00 alternately, indicating that water is continuously flowing into the appliance, potentially leading to an overfill.

The display shows E:61-02 alternately, indicating that the wastewater pump is blocked and preventing water from being drained.

The display shows E:61-03 alternately, and water is not draining from the appliance, suggesting a blockage or problem with the wastewater hose or siphon connection.

The display shows E:90-01 alternately, indicating that the mains voltage supplied to the appliance is too low. This is not a fault of the dishwasher itself.

The display shows E:92-40 alternately, indicating that the dishwasher's filters are soiled or blocked, preventing proper water circulation and drainage.

A specific error code within the range E:01-00 to E:90-10 (excluding those with specific entries) is displayed, indicating a general technical fault.

Too much foam is generated inside the dishwasher during operation, which can be caused by using hand washing-up liquid or an unsuitable detergent.

A knocking noise is heard from the filling valves. This is not an appliance fault but is caused by the domestic water installation and does not affect the appliance's functioning.

Dishes still have food residue after a wash cycle, which can be due to incorrect loading, blocked spray arms or filters, or an unsuitable wash program.

The Home Connect features are not functioning as expected, possibly due to incorrect setup or an underlying technical fault with the system.

The appliance cannot connect to the home network, likely due to the WLAN (Wi-Fi) on the router being inactive.

Glasses appear permanently cloudy, indicating damage rather than residue. This can be due to using non-dishwasher-proof glassware, or exposure to a lengthy steam phase.

A knocking or rattling sound is heard during operation, often due to the spray arm hitting items in the dishwasher, or water jets striking the tub with a small load.

Plastic components inside the dishwasher have changed colour over time. This is often a normal part of the appliance's life, or can be influenced by wash temperature or intensive precleaning.

The dishwasher programme starts by itself without user initiation, likely because the previous programme was not fully terminated.

Streaks or film that can be removed are visible on glasses, metallic glassware, and cutlery after the wash cycle.

The rinse aid refill indicator is illuminated, signaling that the rinse aid level in the dispenser is low and needs to be refilled.

Rust spots appear on cutlery after washing. This can happen if rust-prone items are washed together with the cutlery, or if the cutlery itself is not sufficiently rust-resistant.

Persistent white film or deposits are visible on dishes, or inside the dishwasher and on the door, which are difficult to remove.

Dishes and cutlery remain wet after the wash cycle, which can be due to a lack of rinse aid, improper program selection, or incorrect loading.

Dishes still have visible tea stains or lipstick marks after the wash cycle, indicating insufficient cleaning.

The WLAN display on the appliance is flashing, indicating that a connection to the home network is not currently available.

Water remains in the dishwasher tub after the programme has finished, indicating a problem with drainage.

Visible water marks remain on plastic items or parts inside the appliance after the drying cycle. This is often due to the physical properties of plastic or insufficient rinse aid.

Deposits that can be wiped away or dissolved with water are found inside the dishwasher or on the door. These are typically detergent substances.
