Silence programme
The silence programme is the quietest way to run your dishwasher. By activating it, you automatically reduce the noise levels of your dishwasher to the lowest minimum possible. This is achieved by an especially adapted Eco 50 °C programme, a reduced spray pressure and extended cleaning phase.
EcoSilence Drive
EcoSilence Drive: dishwashing like you’ve never heard before.
Feature IconKeeping the house clean can be difficult. Keeping it quiet can sometimes feel impossible. Our dishwashers with EcoSilence drive deliver high-performance cleaning with low noise emission. Equipped with a brushless, energy-saving motor that optimally reduces friction noise, the EcoSilence drive ensures a much smoother, quieter operation. Now you can enjoy a home that is as quiet as it is clean.
ActiveWater
Active Water: less water, less energy, better performance.
Feature IconBosch's innovative Active Water Plus technology maximises efficiency to produce outstanding results whilst protecting the environment. With carefully targeted water distribution, improved filter technology, faster heating and increased pump output for more water circulation, Active Water dishwashers give superb results.
Automatic Programmes
Take the guesswork out of cleaning.
Feature IconDifferent loads of washing require different wash settings. Choosing the incorrect programme not only wastes time, but also water and energy. Bosch automatic programmes automatically regulate the water temperature and rinse time during washing to suit the level of soiling and load volume. This means, with automatic programmes you only use as much water as needed for perfect results. The right wash for every load – all at the touch of a button.
Anti Fingerprint
With our Bosch Anti-Fingerprint solution the visibility of fingerprints on your Dishwasher is considerably reduced
10-Year Rust-Through Warranty
We have developed special surface treatments and production processes that are precisely tailored to the materials used in the interior of our dishwashers. As a result, a 10-year guarantee against rust through of the inner cavity, from the inside out, on all our dishwashers can be offered. This guarantee can be activated for all dishwashers purchased from 01.01.2012 onwards.
DosageAssist
The DosageAssist ensures optimal cleaning results and a quieter wash. The detergent drops out the detergent dispenser and into a special tray on the top basket where it gets completely dissolved.
