First start-up of the Bosch dishwasher

Dishwashers of the German brand Bosch are among the highest quality and most popular on the market. When household appliances are purchased, and all the elements are already connected, the owners are eager to check their operability as soon as possible, to feel all the benefits of using the purchase. However, one should not rush, because the first time the dishwasher of a German company must be started according to the manufacturer's instructions, so that it will be possible to competently put it into operation.

Before turning on the Bosch dishwasher, you must get rid of any packaging materials and stickers that may be located both outside and inside the camera. At the bottom of the device there is a container for special salt, from which it is necessary to remove the lid and fill it with about a liter of water, as well as add half a kilogram of salt. It should be noted that the amount of salt for each model varies, so you need to pay attention to studying the instructions, where the manufacturer indicates the optimal amount of this product.

Most models are supplied with special strips, thanks to which you can find out the level of water hardness. This is important, because it depends on her how much salt will have to be added with each dishwashing. The premium models from Bosch are equipped with an automatic salt consumption programming system, while in other models this will have to be done manually.

In addition, most of the models of the German brand on the market boast the presence of special sensors that are able to determine the amount of dissolved sodium in water. If this figure is below the norm, then the container must be replenished using a salt composition.

On the outside of the door, there are usually a couple of compartments that are designed for detergent tablets, gel or powder. Tablets are considered the best solution, since they contain several components at the same time, which greatly simplifies the process of use.

In order to wash the dishes as efficiently as possible, you need to pay attention to the choice of the optimal mode. In this case, the characteristics of the dishes used, the material of manufacture and other points should be taken into account. The German company Bosch produces dishwashers with different types of control, with most models including several standard program modes.

• Intensive. A characteristic feature of the mode is that the water heats up to 70 degrees. It is an excellent choice for plates and heavily soiled crockery. It should be borne in mind that an intensive program consumes a lot of water and electricity, therefore it is not suitable for a small amount of dishes.

• Auto. It is considered the most common, it is able to independently determine the weight of the load and the intensity of the wash. In this case, the water temperature is usually no more than 50 degrees.

• Eco-mode. Heats water up to 50 degrees, but at the same time consumes the minimum amount of water and electricity.

• Berezhny. Will be an excellent solution for fragile glasses and other dishes, as well as products that are made of the finest glass.

• Preliminary. It is used in the process of soaking dishes, cleans them in advance before the main wash.

Thanks to this, it will be possible to check as accurately as possible the operation of the heating element of household appliances, the water supply and drainage system, and also to qualitatively clean the pallet from any contamination.

The use of various detergents and detergents allows you to achieve optimum results from your Bosch dishwasher.

In order to correctly choose the optimal detergent, it is necessary to decide what tasks it should solve. If you want to wash dishes with minimal costs, then you should not expect efficiency from the products used. If quality is in the first place, then it is best to prepare for serious spending. But the dishes will be washed, clean and shiny. The current market for dishwasher detergents is quite large and includes powders, tablets, gels and a wide variety of other substances.

In the process of selecting a tool for the first inclusion, it is worth remembering that a good and effective tool cannot be too cheap, but you should not overpay either. It is best to use several means to find the best option for yourself in terms of price and quality.

In the process of choosing such a tool, it is necessary to focus on several criteria.

• Trademark. Several companies are represented on the modern market, which over the years of their activity have been able to win the trust of customers and prove the quality of their products.

• Reviews. Consideration should be given to the opinions and experiences of other people, as well as the rating of the company that manufactures dishwashers. However, you do not need to be blindly guided by someone else's opinion, because each person has their own priorities and their own type of household appliances, so the ideal solution would be to select the optimal tool based on personal observations.

• Type of product. It should be understood which of them you will use in everyday life, thanks to which you will be able to choose the most suitable type of detergent.

• Ease of use. The most convenient today are tablets that include several components, so you do not need to use additional substances. Some are ready to purchase such multifunctional products, while others want to combine detergents and rinses on their own. It all depends on the personal preferences of each person.

• Composition. Detergents that are intended for use in a German brand dishwasher can include many components. They influence the final effect of washing, so you should carefully read the information on the packaging and evaluate it.

• Security. Cheap products usually consist of components that are harmful to human health. In addition, they can harm the performance of your Bosch dishwasher. It is necessary to select funds that do not differ in aggressiveness and do not cause allergic reactions. In addition, it is best to refuse abrasive options, as they can harm the internal parts of the devices.

Multi-ingredient foods usually include salt. If there are emollients in the composition, then there is no need to buy them separately. However, sometimes it is best to play it safe and use salt as an additional component by pouring the product into a special compartment.

The main problem is that tap water is characterized by increased hardness, therefore, it negatively affects the condition of filters and other elements of the dishwasher.

It is scale that is the main enemy of any household appliances. And white bloom appears on heating elements, indoor units and does not allow water to heat up. As a result, the device consumes too much electricity, is less efficient, and parts quickly fail. The use of salt allows you to prevent all these troubles, to ensure the durability of the dishwasher and have a positive effect on its performance.

It should be noted that in its composition such salt is almost completely identical to kitchen salt, but cooking salt can include a huge amount of impurities and particles that can harm the parts of the dishwasher. That is why it is not recommended to make a replacement, but it is best to use a special dishwasher salt.

After all the components have been loaded into the machine, the first start-up process can begin. The manufacturer suggests doing this in a specific sequence:

• it is necessary to check if household appliances are installed correctly using a level;
