Bosch Serie 6 Freestanding Dishwashers Questions & Answers (page 2 of 2)

With the cutlery rack, can any of the rack be moved or slid over or is the entire rack unmovable? Thanks

I have only hot water connection for the dishwasher. I was looking for a dishwasher that could be connected to the hot water. I bought the BOSH SMS66MI02A dishwasher after reading the manual downloaded from BOSH Australian website. The manual says under technical specification that water temperature Hot water maximum temperature 60 Centigrade.
Before connecting the dishwasher I read the manual in detail. Then I found out that manual also says under Warm water connection that it is not recommended to connect the appliance to hot water if the water is supplied from an electric boiler. I am confused. Could some one from BOSH clarify these instructions please.

Hi there, I'm really interested in purchasing the SMS66JI01A dishwasher and was wondering if the depth would change at all once the top of the dishwasher is removed. The depth we have available to replace the current dishwasher is 575mm that's why. Thanks!

I purchased anew osch serious 6 i unboxed it and found out there was water inside it to me it looks like its been used

So there is no stand alone rinse cycle? Why is that? It was a setting we've used on a dishwasher all the time so there must be a reason?

I have a series 6 Dishwasher SMS66J101A/41... The 29 minute cycle shows 44 minutes, and the 60 mns cycle shows 1.15... I have added rinse aid... and no change... I've had Bosch dishwashers before and the previous model used to have a 15 mins rinse cycle which was ideal for rinsing a few dishes when the dishwasher wasn't full... I also had set in on no rinse aid as I use tablets that has rinse aid in it... I never had any problems with this dishwasher set on no rinse aid... Why on earth did Bosch decide to eliminate the rinse cycle? Can you solve this problem that I have now?

What if I want to just rinse the dishes until I have a full load? The manual reads like it has this function however there isn’t a button for it.

I am interested in the power usage as I am on solar power, and in search of the most power efficient dishwasher. I was recommended this model by HN because it runs at 600watts, is this the accurate max power in usage? Or is there a cycle that uses less power in operation, or do you have a more power efficient model available?

Hi, do you HAVE TO use finish or similar products? I have rarely used them in my Dishlex dishwasher and have read that some dishwashers actually state that a rinse aid MUST be used. Looking to buy this model Bosch in the next day or so. Mike

SMS66103A Great Dishwasher.
Has anybody worked out how to activate the "End of washing cycle" alarm/beep?
There are Instructions online for previous models but the required button designations don't match this model.

How do I operate the pre-rinse cycle on the SMS66MW01A? All the literature makes it sound like there is a stand alone pre-rinse program but I can't find it! Thanks.

Hi there! Three questions:
- does this dishwasher take tall wine glasses?
- does the door stay open when loading? (comparing to Miele where reviewers complained that the door wouldn't stay open which would be very annoying!)
- how well does it dry plastics?
Thanks!

Have recently bought the SMS66MW01A and while it cleans well and quiet when running, it is noisy when taking in water. I thought is my An issue with water flow but have no alarms or issues with results so expect this is normal. Is the noisy intake of water normal?
