IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

WARNING — When using your dishwasher, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

1.Bosch dishwashers are provided with two manuals; one, Installation Instruction Manual and one, Use and Care Manual. Read all instructions and understand before using the dishwasher.

2.Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

3.Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children.

4.When loading items to be washed:

a.Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and

b.Load knives and other sharp utensils with handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

5.Do not wash plastic items unless marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.

6.Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.

7.Do not operate your dishwasher unless all the enclosure panels are properly in place.

8.Do not tamper with controls.

9.Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.

10.To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

11.Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

12.Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS !

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.

WARNING — This dishwasher must be grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and/or local codes. Make sure this dishwasher has been properly grounded and installed by a qualified installer before using.

LOADING THE DISHWASHER

Pre-Load Preparation

Remove large particles of food from the dishes before food has a chance to dry, but rinsing is not necessary.

Food soils will actually enhance the detergent’s performance.

Use the Rinse & Hold cycle if waiting an extended period of time before washing.

Pre-soak and hand-scour pots and pans with burned-on or blackened food.

Do not place foreign objects, such as toothpicks, paper products, plastic bags, or packaging materials, into the dishwasher!

General Loading Tips

Load dishwasher so water can circulate freely and reach every part of item.

Do not allow delicate items to touch - they could be damaged.

Place items upside down - so water does not collect inside of them.

Place items so that nothing protrudes through the bottom of the racks - this could block the rotation of the spray arms.

Before loading the dishwasher, review the materials chart provided on Page 6.

Integra Ltd Racks

The dishwasher racks in Figures 4 and 5 are those that come with the Bosch Integra Ltd model (SHU 9950) only. Shown in these figures are the recommended 12 place setting loading patterns to obtain the optimal performance from your dishwasher.

RackMatic Adjustment

(SHU9950 model only)

The top rack height of the Bosch dishwashers is adjustable. There is an upper and lower position for the top rack which is used to accomodate items

with different heights.

How to Lower and Raise the Rack:

• First, pull out the top rack.

To Lower Rack

• Press the levers simultaneously (one on the left and one on the right sides of the rack). Always hold the sides of the rack on the upper edge,

otherwise it will not drop smoothly (and may damage the utensils).

To Raise Rack

Before you re-insert the rack, ensure that it is at the same height on both sides. Otherwise, the appliance door will not close and the upper spray arm will not connect to the water circuit.
