9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

When properly cared for, your new appliance has been designed to be safe and reliable. Read all instructions before using the appliance. These precautions will reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, and injury to persons. When using laundry appliances, basic safety precautions must be followed, including those in the following pages.

Examine the appliance after unpacking it. In the event of transport damage, do not plug it in.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH WHEN USING YOUR DRYER, FOLLOW BASIC PRECAUTIONS INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING

Bosch dryers are provided with a Use and Care Manual with Installation Instructions. Read and understand all instructions before using the dryer.

Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door (to the drying compartment) to prevent children from playing or hiding inside. Also remove the power cord/plug.

Do not allow anyone to climb, lean or hang on any part of the dryer including any protruding components such as the appliance door or a pullout shelf.

Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

Do not tamper with the controls.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any service unless specifically recommended in these user maintenance instructions.

Do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made by using a 3D printer).

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Always unplug the dryer from the power supply before attempting any service. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.

To reduce the risk of fire, clothes, cleaning rags, mop heads and the like which have traces of any flammable substance, such as vegetable oil, cooking oil, petroleum based oils or distillates, waxes, fats, etc., must not be placed in the dryer. These items may contain some flammable substance(s) even after washing, which may smoke or catch fire by itself.

Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-like materials or equivalent. Foam rubber materials can ignite by spontaneous combustion.

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the dryer.

Clean lint filters before or after each load.

Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather. Hoses and internal parts may be damaged if exposed to freezing temperatures.

Do not use the dryer if it has a worn power cord or loose plug.

The dryer must only be used for its intended purpose.

Always follow the fabric care instructions recommended by the clothing manufacturer.

Do not operate the dryer if parts are missing or broken.

Do not sit on top of the dryer.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT use an extension cord to connect the dryer to the electrical power supply.

Always check pockets and remove any objects. Cigarette lighters are particularly hazardous.

The appliance contains R290, a refrigerant that is environmentally friendly but flammable.

Keep open fire and ignition sources away from the appliance.

Do not operate the dryer if any guards and/or panels have been removed.

Do not bypass any safety devices.

Do not operate this dryer until you are sure that:

All services connected to the dryer (power, drain, etc.) have been installed according to the Installation Instructions.

Installation and grounding are in compliance with all local regulations and/or other applicable regulations and requirements.

Failure to install, maintain and/or operate the dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in injury and/or damage.

To avoid floor damage and mold growth, do not let spills or splashout cause standing water around or under the appliance.

See the Installation Instructions section in this manual for grounding requirements.

About this manual

These operating and installation instructions apply to more than one model of dryer. Illustrations used may show details that differ from your particular model.

Read your user manual. It contains valuable information about the safety, installation and operation of your new appliance.

This can save you time, make it easier to correctly install and use your dryer, and improve your overall satisfaction with your new appliance.

Special features

A distinctive feature of your Bosch dryer is its SelfCleaning Condenser. This is unique only to Bosch Heat Pump dryers and eliminates the additional requirements of cleaning a secondary condensate filter found on all other Heat Pump dryers.

The Bosch Self-Cleaning condenser keeps energy usage low for life by regularly rinsing the condenser with every drying cycle. This helps maintain the low energy consumption as originally certified as an ENERGY STAR MOST EFFICIENT dryer.

Bosch dryers feature advanced operation philosophy, customized drying programs and a solid touch and feel making them a user-friendly household assistant.

Bosch load sensing feature controls power consumption for each cycle based on the amount and type of laundry. This automatic feature optimizes energy efficiency.

8

Environmentally friendly use of your dryer

Your new Bosch dryer is designed to use energy in a highly efficient way to help reduce operating costs, conserve resources and protect the environment.

To save energy, money and time, Bosch recommends the following:

Spin the laundry thoroughly

Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine. Use the highest possible spin speed for the type of laundry. Higher spin speeds reduce the drying time and the energy consumption.

Optimize load and selected drying program

Use the maximum amount of laundry for the appropriate drying program.

Use automatic drying programs for the most energy efficient use of your dryer. They perform according to internal moisture and temperature sensors delivering optimized efficiency and fabric care.

Use the Time Dry program for touching up damp loads or for small loads. This program will use more energy than the automatic programs.

~ Program selection table; Page 36

NOTICE: The energy rating of this dryer is based on the Cotton program with the Dryness Level set to Dry (all other option settings are off).

Clean filters

Clean the lint filters before or after each drying process.

~ Cleaning the lint filters; Page 39

Air inlet on the dryer

Do not cover or allow any articles/items to restrict the air inlet on the front of the dryer.

Energy-saving mode

The display panel lighting goes out after a few minutes and Start/Pause flashes. To activate the display, press any button.

Energy-saving mode is not activated if a program is running.

If Wi-Fi is activated the appliance will not automatically switch off (automatic switch-off function is deactivated).

Dimensions and clearances required

Installation for best performance
9CAUTION
DO NOT INSTALL THE DRYER:

outdoors,

in an environment with dripping water,

near flammable materials,

in rooms which are at risk of freezing,

in rooms which may contain gas or other fuels,

on carpets.

Because many variables affect drying time we recommend allowing as much free air space around your dryer as possible for the shortest drying cycle time.

NOTICE: If your dryer is located in a closet, leave the closet door open while the dryer is operating.

The recommended ambient temperatures (between 5986°F / 15-30°C) are for optimum drying times, outside of this range drying times may be longer.

The installation surface (floor) must be level and structurally sound. Using a bubble level and the heightadjustable feet installed on the appliance, level the appliance side to side and front to back.
