Troubleshooting

Dishes are not drying completely, even with ExtraDry.

Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled. Check that dishes are loaded correctly, allowing hot air to circulate. Plastics inherently retain more moisture, so some minor dampness might occur, but ExtraDry significantly minimizes this. Avoid overcrowding.

Dishwasher is not connecting to the Home Connect app.

Verify your home Wi-Fi network is active and stable. Ensure the dishwasher is within range of your Wi-Fi router. Double-check that the Home Connect app is correctly installed on your smartphone and that you have followed all pairing instructions in the user manual.

Dishes are not getting clean.

Check if the spray arms are blocked by tall items or food debris; clean them if necessary. Ensure the filters are clean and properly seated. Use adequate detergent and make sure it's fresh. Load dishes correctly, allowing water to reach all surfaces and avoid overcrowding.

Unusual noises during operation.

While this model is very quiet, unusual noises can occur if items are not loaded properly and are hitting the spray arms, or if foreign objects are in the pump area. Stop the cycle and carefully check the interior for obstructions.

Water standing at the bottom of the dishwasher.

This usually indicates a drainage issue. Check if the drain hose is kinked or blocked. Ensure the dishwasher's filters are clean and free of debris. If the problem persists, consult the installation manual for drain pump access or contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Setting up your Bosch SMS4EKI06G dishwasher typically involves standard plumbing and electrical connections. Ensure you have dedicated water inlet and drainage points, as well as a compatible power supply. The product dimensions are 845 x 600 x 600 mm (HxWxD), so measure your installation space carefully to ensure a proper fit. It is recommended to have the appliance installed by a qualified professional.

Compatibility

For the Home Connect features, you will need a compatible smartphone (iOS or Android) and a stable Wi-Fi network in your home. Ensure your Wi-Fi router is within range of the dishwasher for optimal connection. The Home Connect app is free to download from your device's app store.

Care

Proper care ensures longevity and optimal performance:

  • Clean Filters Regularly: Remove and rinse the filters at the bottom of the dishwasher every few weeks to prevent food particle buildup and ensure efficient washing.
  • Wipe Down Interior: Periodically wipe the interior seals and stainless steel to prevent residue and odors.
  • Check Rinse Aid and Salt Levels: Ensure rinse aid and dishwasher salt dispensers are filled according to your water hardness and detergent requirements. Rinse aid is crucial for the ExtraDry function.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the exterior surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
  • Run Maintenance Cycles: Periodically run a hot wash cycle with a dishwasher cleaner (without dishes) to descale and sanitize the interior.
