Features of Bosch Built-in Dishwashers
Bosch dishwashers for the Japanese market are manufactured at the Bosch Group’s dedicated dishwasher factory in southern Germany. This factory produces 3 million dishwashers annually for various brands under the group, leveraging extensive manufacturing experience for continuous product development and improvement.
Bosch dishwashers not only enhance their primary function of washing and drying dishes but also achieve a balance between cleaning/drying performance and environmental performance by reducing water and energy consumption. They also excel in considerations for residential environments, such as quietness and sterilization with high-temperature water, ensuring safety and peace of mind.
Feature 1: Unique Electricity-Free Drying Method, “Zeolith-Dry” (※2)
Zeolite, a mineral known for generating heat when absorbing moisture, is utilized. During washing, it raises the internal temperature, and during drying, it absorbs moisture from dishes and the interior, rapidly drying dishes. Zeolite does not require replacement or replenishment, maintaining a consistently beautiful finish.
Feature 2: Quiet Operation at Just 44 Decibels, Comparable to a Library
The noise level inside a library is said to be 43 decibels (※3). The World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines also suggest that noise levels in bedrooms at night should preferably be within 45 decibels (※4). The Bosch dishwasher’s operating sound of 44 decibels is quiet enough to meet such standards.
Feature 3: “No Pre-Rinse Needed” – Simply Load Dishes After Meals
Bosch dishwashers incorporate a pre-wash cycle before the main wash with detergent. This eliminates the need for users to pre-rinse dishes by hand, ensuring thorough cleaning. The high-temperature water is also designed to be evenly distributed throughout the interior, effectively tackling stubborn stains.
Feature 4: “Double Spray Arm” Adopted for 45cm Models
The 45cm model features a rectangular interior. To ensure efficient water distribution, two spray arms are installed at the bottom of the upper basket, allowing washing water to reach every corner effectively.
Reliable 5-Year Long-Term Warranty
For five years from the delivery date, all repair costs related to equipment malfunctions or defects are covered free of charge, based on the warranty certificate.
About Bosch Home Appliances
The Bosch Group’s origins trace back 140 years to 1886 when Robert Bosch opened his “Workshop for Precision Mechanics and Electrical Engineering.” While starting with just two employees, the “Magneto High-Voltage Ignition Device” completed in 1897 gained recognition as a reliable automotive system, leading to significant success. Since then, Bosch has grown into a world-leading automotive equipment supplier and entered the home appliance market in 1933. Today, it is Europe’s No.1 in large home appliance sales (※1) and has established itself as a beloved appliance manufacturer in 47 countries worldwide.
