Operating instructions bosch silence plus made in germany sps53m52ru dishwasher 45 cm wide color white

Dishwashers of the Bosch Silence Plus series are distinguished by the use of an inverter motor and a pump with optimized channels for water supply. The upgraded components have reduced noise levels and reduced energy consumption compared to other Bosch products and products from other companies. The equipment is equipped with housings 450-600 mm wide, designed for installation in niches of kitchen units.

Rules for loading dishes

Depending on the model, the equipment washes from 4 to 12 sets of dishes at a time. A number of additional options make the download process easier. For example, with Rackmatic you can adjust the position of the upper basket.

When placing dishes in trays, you need to remember that overloading the basket can cause the machine to tip over.

Washing and drying modes

The operation phases of the device vary and depend on additional options, but on average they take 0.5 to 2.5 hours. Using some short cycles can save time and reduce resource consumption.

Program for intelligent recognition of the degree of pollution and workload. Automatically switches on the most suitable mode.

The presence of the IntensiveZone option allows you to create a special washout zone where a larger volume of hot water flows.

The turbo drying mode makes it possible to speed up the drying process.

Washing and drying modes

The washing programs performed by Bosch dishwashers are divided into:

• automatic;
• fast;
• delicate;
• economical;
• normal;
• intense;
• with pre-rinse.

The programs are developed taking into account the type of dishes, the materials from which they are made, as well as the type and intensity of dirt present on them.

Each of the available programs takes into account the following factors regarding the washing procedure:

• water temperature;
• duration of the process;
• volume of water consumption;
• type of detergent used;
• mechanical impact method.

When performing standard programs, the wash duration and water temperature are preset parameters. Each type of dishware has its own program, taking into account the degree of soiling.

Standard modes include delicate, eco and intensive wash. Various temperature ranges are provided to implement automatic programs. The machine determines water consumption, duration of operation and washing temperature within the prescribed range independently, based on the readings of aquasensors.

For example, reacting to the degree of soiling of the dishes, the machine can increase or decrease the number of rinses.

There is a separate program for different types of dishes and types of soiling; all that remains is to choose from the variety of washing modes that will help the housewife find the optimal solution for her tasks.

Programs, which include, for example, soaking, effectively complement the basic washing algorithms. This is the implementation of additional capabilities of Bosch technology. For example, if dishes have just been used, they can be washed in accelerated mode with a shortened wash cycle occurring in just 29 minutes.

The Turbo speed-20min program can be called an innovation. Its use allows you to wash dishes even in 20 minutes. Such a program will help out the hostess if she has to set the table with the same items several times over a short period of time.

There are also additional options that significantly make the owner’s life easier and help her out in extreme situations.

Additional programs expand the capabilities of standard functions:

• Timer. Using the timer, the start of washing can be delayed for any time period ranging from one to 24 hours.
• Hygiene. If additional hygienic treatment of dishes is necessary, it can be done by lengthening the last phase of the cycle and increasing the temperature at which it passes.
• Vario Speed. You can speed up the program without losing the quality of the final result by forcing both liquid spray arms to work simultaneously. This option is available in the Vario Speed ​​Plus variation on premium units. At the same time, operating time is reduced by 66%.
• Half load. If the chamber is only half loaded, this nuance should be taken into account, accordingly reducing the consumption of water and detergents.
• Intensive zone. This option allows you to wash dishes in the lower basket more intensively. In other levels the program will run in the main mode. Using this option, you can process dirty pans and fragile wine glasses at the same time.
• Shine & Dry. New option available for wine glasses and glassware. Thanks to additional rinsing, increasing the volume of rinse aid and long drying time, the glass acquires an incredible shine.

If the instructions for your model provide such an option, then at the first stage of the machine’s operation you can add a forgotten item to it, temporarily interrupting the wash. To put the machine into standby mode, carefully open the door. After closing it, the program running by the machine will automatically continue.

A very convenient additional function is provided by a timer, which helps to delay the completion of work for a given period of time, which allows the housewife to manage her time more successfully.

Completion of work will be indicated by a sound and light (beam on the floor) signal. It is customary to unload the boxes starting from the lower basket. At the same time, drops that may remain on the upper baskets will not spoil the appearance of the items located below.

If you adhere to the requirements stated by the manufacturer, your unit will serve you for a long time.

Maintenance

The duration of any mechanism depends on the quality of service. It is also necessary to monitor the condition of individual devices of the Bosch dishwasher:

1. Detect scale and grease on the rocker arms: if they are detected, run the cycle without loading, with detergent, in intensive mode.
2. Check the condition of the filters after each wash. If necessary, rinse them with hot water from the tap, otherwise the drain pump will be blocked from contamination and the dishwasher will need to be repaired.
3. Wash the sprinklers from scale and food so that the quality of washing does not deteriorate. These devices are removable. Running hot water is suitable for cleaning.

A more detailed description of the care of parts of Bosch washing units can be found in the instructions for use included with the specific product. Following the instructions in the manual will allow you to use the dishwasher for a long time.

Conclusions and useful video on the topic

Running a new dishwasher for the first time in “idle” mode is a responsible task. You are given the opportunity for the first time to check both the quality of its installation and the operation of its devices.

We present to your attention a video dedicated to Bosch dishwashers. You will see the operating principles of different types of machines, get an idea of ​​the internal structure and operating procedure of the unit.

There are a great variety of models produced by the famous Bosch brand. And each has its own characteristics. Our task is to awaken your interest in this technique and in the instructions that describe its capabilities and nuances of operation.

Where to start using it?

Before putting any technical equipment into operation, you must first familiarize yourself with the safety precautions, as well as the list of utensils not recommended by the manufacturer.

1. Some modifications require entering into memory the hardness parameters of the water used before the first start:

• information is available at the district water utilities;
• After entering the data, the equipment reboots.

1. To protect equipment mechanisms from scale immediately after connecting the device, you must:

• open the compartment lid and pour 1 liter of water into it;
• add 1.5 kg of special salt, close the compartment.

1. The first startup of the device is performed idle in the following sequence:

• connect the water, then open the equipment door and press start of the system;
• select the button with the corresponding program, press it, close the door.

Once the door is completely closed, the program will start automatically.

When installing the device, you need to check the reliability of the wire protection system and make sure that their performance characteristics comply with the parameters regulated by the manufacturer. Secure and ensure stability of the machine. In addition, the electrical connection points must be easily accessible.

How to turn on the car

To turn on the dishwasher, you need to follow several steps:

• open the water supply tap;
• open the door of the household appliance;
• press the machine power button;
• select the optimal operating mode of the device, press the start button;
• when all buttons are turned on and the program is set, the door is closed.

Immediately after the door is tightly closed, the machine starts working.

The dishwasher is turned off in the following order:

1. It is necessary to wait for the complete completion of the work cycle. Immediately after this, the door will unlock.
2. The door is opened and the device off button is pressed.
3. The water supply is turned off. This item can be skipped if the device is equipped with the additional auto Aquastop function.
4. After the dishes have cooled, remove them.

Suitable detergents for dishwashers

Dishwasher users must purchase a starter kit, which is usually offered with their main purchase. You can separately purchase rinse aid, detergent tablets or special powder, as well as salt to soften tap water, which we have already discussed.

The starter kit includes all the detergents, without which it is simply impossible to operate any dishwasher - this is a mandatory minimum

The advantage of starter kits for beginners is that they already include everything you might need. In addition, they include products from the same manufacturer, which allows us to hope that their components are not only perfectly compatible, but also successfully complement each other.

Often, purchasing a set will cost less than purchasing its components, sold separately from each other.

In addition to the three absolutely necessary components, fragrances and products can be used for effective washing to help clean the car itself from grease and plaque. As a rule, they are purchased as the need for them arises.

Water softening salt

For high-quality dishwashing, soft water with a low content of calcium salts should be used. If hard water is not softened, scale marks will form on the walls of the chamber over time. Salt allows you to bring water to a state in which the results of the equipment’s operation please its owner.

Regenerating salt for loading into the dishwasher should not be confused with ordinary table salt, which everyone has in their kitchen: this is a special substance for softening tap water

What means can be used?

Bosch machines can use any detergent that is on sale today.

It can be:

• compressed tablets;
• powder;
• liquids.

The only restriction that must be strictly observed: these must be special substances intended for loading into dishwashers. Do not use chemicals to wash dishes manually.

The detergents used must be intended for processing dishes specifically in dishwashers, and those used for manual washing cannot be used

Depending on the composition of their components, there are three types of dishwasher detergents:

• with chlorine and phosphates;
• without chlorine, but with phosphates;
• without phosphates and without chlorine.

If there are no phosphates in the composition of the product, a white coating may form on the walls of the chamber and on the dishes themselves. To avoid such consequences, you have to increase the consumption of detergent.

The absence of chlorine will not provide the desired effect if the dishes need to be bleached. Dark deposits on cups and grayed plastic may be the result of a lack of chlorine. The situation can be saved by washing with increased intensity or increasing the consumption of detergent.

Why do you need a rinse aid?

When using rinse aid, which enters the chamber at the last stage of washing, water drops do not leave marks on the dishes.

If you do not use this preparation while the machine is operating, then after drying, unaesthetic stains will remain on the glassware. In addition, it is high-quality dishwasher rinse aid that ensures clean dishes shine.

Rinse aids give the glass that same gloss and shine that any housewife strives for, but it is important to use them in moderation so that the dishes do not become sticky and are not covered with whitish or rainbow stains

The volume of rinse aid can be changed depending on need. If this liquid was not enough, you will see a white coating on the plates and they will be dull. In this case, the dose is increased. Excess of the drug will appear as rainbow stains on the pans. They will also feel sticky to the touch. Then the dose is reduced.

Special detergents

There are combination drugs that are called “three in one”. They contain all three components listed above. The disadvantage of such products is the inability to adjust the salt content, as recommended by Bosch equipment manufacturers.

Water that is too hard impairs the quality of washing, and water that is too soft contributes to glass corrosion: calcium is washed out of its composition. If you have to wash silver products, you must use detergents specially designed for this purpose. Others won't work.

You can see the order in which detergents are loaded and which compartments of the cuvette located on the inner surface of the door are filled with in the videos that we invite you to watch. They are in the last part of the article.

Advantages and disadvantages

Equipment advantages:

• ease of setup;
• low noise level;
• possibility of using powdered cleaning agents and tablets;
• water leakage protection block.

Disadvantages of the dishwasher noted in owner reviews:

• high cost of original spare parts;
• deposition of fatty sediment on the walls of the washing chamber;
• the smell of plastic coming from washed dishes;
• The function of accelerated drying with air flow is not provided.

Suitable detergents for dishwashers

The market is saturated with various liquid, powder and gel formulations intended for use in equipment of this type. Many of them are combined. In addition, there are even capsule forms.

1. The presence of a water hardness adjustment system helps control water and air conditioner consumption.

1. Some equipment requires the use of only products regulated by the manufacturer. The names of the substances can be read in the instructions supplied with the device or on the company’s website.
2. Adding special salt is necessary, but only if it is not in the main composition of the powder

The use of hand wash products and solvents is prohibited. They may cause damage to the equipment.

Specifications

The equipment is equipped with a metal case with a hinged front door. On the upper front edge of the 45 Edition Series doors there is a control panel with display. Modifications with a width of 600 mm are equipped with a door that allows for the installation of a facade slab (made of wood or chipboard). The control panel is located at the end of the sash, the springs are equipped with stiffness regulators that compensate for the additional weight of the lining.

Inside the washing chamber there are pull-out trays for dishes, equipped with height adjustment and folding elements. To supply water, rotating nozzle blocks are provided; sprayers are provided at the bottom with the ability to supply water under increased pressure. Inverter-type motors are mounted to drive the pump and injector units, which increase the reliability of the machine while simultaneously reducing power consumption.

Water consumption depends on the capacity of the washing chamber and the power of the installed heating element.

Machines with a body 450 mm wide consume up to 10 liters of water per cycle, products with increased capacity consume up to 13 liters of liquid.

What problems can you fix yourself?

Highly intelligent equipment should be repaired by professionals. However, users can fix a number of non-critical glitches themselves.

Before connecting, be sure to check the correct connection of the hoses, the quality of the fasteners, the sealing of the joints and the integrity of the power supply wire. Depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations, the equipment is connected to the drain directly or through a siphon.

In this case, the voltage in the outlet must correspond to the data specified in the instructions.

Installation and connection

PMM is a complex household appliance. To ensure its proper functioning, installation must be carried out according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

• The device must be checked before purchasing. This will help avoid possible problems in the future.
• All additional parts included in the package are installed.
• Leveling the machine using a building level. Otherwise, the device may not wash and dry dishes well and make strange sounds.
• Connecting the dishwasher to the drain. If necessary, a siphon can be attached. The sealing of seams should be carefully checked.
• Connection to water supply. The hose only needs to be connected to the cold water system. In this case, flexible parts should not be twisted or pinched.
• Network connection. The socket must meet the requirements of the household appliance. It is best to install the power source in close proximity to the machine.

Most models, regardless of the series (Bosch S2R1B, Bosch SMV3020RU), have similar installation requirements, but it is better to check the instructions.

What problems can you fix yourself?

If your Bosch dishwasher fails, you need to contact your nearest service center for help. But sometimes the breakdown is so minor that it makes no sense to hire specialists to fix it.

The unit independently monitors the health of its own systems and, in the event of a problem, displays an error code on the display. The meaning of the codes can be found in the instructions for your machine.

A system that constantly tests its own operation, if a malfunction is detected, displays the following error codes:

Let's talk about those that you can eliminate on your own:

• E4 – there is a problem with switching the flow. This error can occur when the hose is clogged. If the hoses have been checked and the display still shows E4, contact service.
• E6 – there is a problem with the aquasensor, which is responsible for recognizing the level of contamination of the dishes. This error is typical for the Bosch Silence Plus model. It appears if the intensive washing program is selected for dishes with minor stains.
• E15 - aquastop is turned on, that is, a reaction to a water leak has occurred. It is necessary to check all hoses and fix the problem.
• E17 - an error occurred in filling the liquid. This situation may arise if increased pressure has formed at the point where the water supply is connected to the dishwasher.
• E24 is a signal that waste water is poorly drained or not drained at all. The cause may be a clogged drain that will have to be cleaned, or a clogged hose. Perhaps the hose is simply pinched.
• E27 – power supply has deteriorated due to a drop in voltage in the electrical network. The cause of this phenomenon may be a peak load on the network. If you install a voltage stabilizer, this type of trouble can be avoided.

It happens quite often that the machine does not turn on. Most likely there is a problem with your network connection. Check the fuse, if it is blown, replace it.

It is possible that the dishwasher is blocked. Make sure to close the washer door properly. Check the sprinkler nozzles, water supply hoses and drain filters for clogging.

In order to prevent malfunctions and malfunctions in the dishwasher, you should follow the manufacturer’s recommendations, take into account what can and cannot be washed in the machine, and place items in the baskets correctly.

What awaits us inside the car?

The famous German quality will be given to us by the Bosch brand. A built-in dishwasher, in particular the SPV 58 M50 RU model, will be an excellent purchase for both a small apartment and large restaurants or other establishments where washing dishes is a mandatory and necessary process. To perform these manipulations, the machine has three trays. The user manual tells you which one is for what.

• The first tray is for spoons, forks and iron utensils.
• The second is for plates and cups.
• The third is for glassware.

All these trays are located very conveniently:

• fragile glassware goes into the topmost one;
• in the middle – ceramic (plates, cups);
• in the lower one - metal and so-called black (pots, pans).

Since there is less dirt on the upper dishes than on the lower ones, the washing results are very high quality.

Decoding the letters of the SPV and SMS models

It’s not difficult to figure this out if you know how the letters in the name of the purchased model are correctly deciphered. In these abbreviations, these letter symbols mean:

• S - spueler (rinsing), in the case of the first character in the spelling;
• P – Means a width of 45 cm (narrow, new generation) and M – standard width (60 centimeters), also a new generation. With the option of a second character in the name of the dishwasher model.
• The letter V indicates that this model is built-in with an open access panel. S – on the contrary, speaks of a free-standing device.

Bosch dishwasher - operating instructions

The entire operation of the dishwasher is based on the action of an electronic board. The sensors built into it monitor the parameters of the level and temperature of water and air and monitor the degree of cleanliness of the dishes.

1. The manual for the device is freely available on the Internet. It has been translated into Russian, there are illustrated examples and diagrams with tables. The user can read it using Adobe Acrobat.
2. In addition to a step-by-step explanation of connection, the annotation contains descriptions of the programs, as well as:

• recommendations for first start-up, care, use of detergents, options for arranging dishes;
• a list of main parts with a brief overview of the operation, as well as safety precautions.

In addition, it lists possible malfunctions and how to eliminate them.

Before starting, the position of the unit is leveled using adjustable legs. The duration of the operating period directly depends on the accuracy of the installation of the machine.

Introduction to the basic programs of Bosch dishwashers

1. Choose a washing program based on the number of dishes and the degree of soiling.
2. The automatic mode, using sensors inside the machine, automatically selects the duration and intensity of washing.
3. If the pollution is not severe, select the “normal” mode. This one cycle of washing, rinsing and drying will be at a temperature of sixty degrees.
4. The fast “economy” mode is intended for dishes without obvious contamination. For example, if you just need to refresh it before lunch. This mode is available in Bosch SMV30D20RU. Also, in some modifications there is a special Turbo washing mode for 20 minutes.
5. The Bosch SPV4030RU machine has a “delicate” or Shine & Dry mode for fragile dishes.
6. The Vario Speed ​​Plus accelerated mode activates both water supply devices at once, thereby reducing washing time without loss of quality.
7. A timer with a delayed start of up to a day will help you wash dishes, for example, only at night. This is convenient for those housewives in whose houses the payment for electricity changes at different times of the day.

Rules for loading dishes

There is a basic rule that applies to all Bosch dishwashers. In the chamber of the unit there are rocker arm sprayers, through the nozzles of which liquid is poured onto the dishes.

So, cups and plates in boxes should be placed so that their presence in close proximity to the sprayers does not interfere with their rotation. The opening valve of the detergent cuvette must not be blocked.

Correct loading of dishes into the dishwasher is really important, since the quality of work for which this unit was purchased depends on it

Before loading kitchen utensils into the compartment, make sure that all items are dishwasher safe. Kitchen and dining utensils that cannot withstand high temperatures are best washed by hand. We are talking about objects covered with glaze, porcelain, antiques and rarities, as well as products made of bronze, pewter, aluminum, brass and copper.

Make sure large food scraps are removed. If the machine has a soaking option, then it can be used to wash large pots. If there is no soaking, remove food debris from the surfaces with a brush. It is bought in hardware stores.

To increase the washing efficiency, in full accordance with the instructions for the brand’s machines, you can first hold cutlery and other utensils under hot water. The grease on the surfaces will become wet and will be easier to wash off. For proper placement of dishes inside the chamber, loading boxes (baskets) are provided.

Using telescopic guides and the Rackmatic system, the boxes can be moved and pulled forward to make it more convenient to place everything that needs to be washed in them. Even if the boxes are completely filled, you don’t have to worry: they won’t tip over.

The dishes are placed inside the chamber in boxes located on two or three levels depending on the model of the dishwasher being loaded.

Depending on the number of mobile and folding elements, three types of boxes are distinguished:

• Vario;
• Vario Flex;
• Vario Flex Plus.

The last boxes on this list are equipped with additional protection for fragile dishes that need careful handling. In particular, 12 glasses with high stems are placed on additional shelves of the lower box. It turns out that in these models the total number of simultaneously washable glasses can reach 18 pieces.

Depending on the specific dishwasher model, utensils can be loaded in two or three levels. The third level is designed to accommodate cutlery, as well as items of non-standard sizes.

Dishes placed in the boxes of a Bosch dishwasher are reliably protected from mechanical damage: the rounded ends of the fixing grids are one of the manifestations of such protection

The Rackmatic system helps to correctly position the boxes in height. After all, proper loading of dishes allows moisture to wash it as evenly as possible from all sides. To secure glasses and cups, you need to use the holders designed for them.

By manipulating the holders, you can make the basket deeper or adapt it to accommodate large items: pots and stewpans.

If the model has boxes of the third upper level, then cutlery is washed in them, which are placed in this kind of tray compactly and neatly

The procedure for using baskets, changing their location and types of loading are contained in the instruction manual for the specific model you have chosen. We recommend that you study this part as carefully as possible.

Features of the Bosch series - silence plus

The main distinguishing feature, as already mentioned, is the almost silent operation of the machines in this series. Which is very important when living in a small apartment, taking into account the fact that they use (the dishwasher) mainly at night, loading it with dirty dishes that have accumulated during the day (evening).

A distinctive innovation also includes the increased safety of the machine; the door is equipped with a child protection function, that is, against changing the set washing program and opening the machine door during operation. The non-full load function allows you to avoid waiting for the accumulation of dishes that need to be washed, by using a touch sensor to determine the number of cutlery and the volume of water needed to wash it. Thereby saving time, electricity needed for heating and the water supply itself. It is worth noting the presence of a double rocker for washing hard-to-reach places of dishes (which was not present in earlier models) and five directions of jets of water and washing liquids supplied under pressure. Height-adjustable upper box of the Bosch dishwasher, freeing up space in its lower compartment for large items (pans, pots, etc.).
