I feel obligated to say, this model may be involved in a recall. If you have the complete model number and FD serial number, i can verify it or you can check it on the Bosch website. I would STRONGLY suggest you check and try to verify if the recall has been taken care of.
Otherwise, these were simple but great dishwashers. |

Same with my AEG Lavamat. The machine is designed to be cold fill and that is what it wants. If incoming wash water is "too" warm or whatever the machine will abort the heating cycle in whole or part because set temp was reached too soon; but it will also subtract that amount of time from total wash cycle.
It was odd at first to see ten or so minutes vanish from the countdown timer as washer began first rinse, then figured things out... Miele marketed their washers back in the day as having "Cycle Guarantee" or words to that affect. Meaning regardless of how fast water is heated the machine still continues on with that portion of cycle regardless. You can if wished advance the timer (mechanical) to skip whole or part of said heating cycle once set temperature has been reached. Find this time of year when the boilers are going my tap cold water is often very warm. It is only after letting the tap run for awhile that all the cold water from pipes inside building is purged and nice cold water comes from outside. |

You absolutely want to pay attention to the recall, as you have much more at risk than just a used dishwasher- it's your whole house and everything (and everyone) in it. Legally, that dishwasher should not have even been sold to you.
(I've been through this recall process, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask.) |
