User Manual Bosch SHX87PW55N Benchmark 24 Inch Built In Dishwasher

Wipe down door seals with a damp, soft cloth.
To clean stainless steel, wash with warm, soapy water
and a soft cloth. Always wipe in the direction of the
steel’s grain. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, chlorine-
based cleaners, or abrasive sponges.
Condition the stainless steel with the Bosch Stainless
Steel Conditioner. DO NOT apply the conditioner to
logos, control markings, or black stainless steel.

Remove hard water residue and limescale buildup by
using a descaler a few times a year. Simply start the
hottest, longest cycle for the empty dishwasher (don't
add any detergent). After 30 minutes add one box of
Bosch descaler to the bottom of the dishwasher, then let
the cyle continue. After the cycle has finished, run
another wash cycle.
Descaling doesn't clean a dishwasher, it only removes
hard water buildup. Use the Bosch dishwasher cleaner a
few times a year to remove greasy residues.
Softening salt is a great way to soften the hard water
used in your dishwasher. Review your owner's manual to
see if your dishwasher utilizes softening salt. If it does,
simply pour the salt into the salt container, which is
inside the dishwasher.

Some dishwasher models use softening salt to soften
the hard water that enters the dishwasher. If your
dishwasher uses softening salt, just remember to fill the
salt container regularly and wipe away any salt crystals
that have spilled around the container lid so they do not
degrade the stainless steel tub.

Dishwashers are used on a regular basis which means
that limescale can build up quickly, especially in hard
water areas. To keep your dishwasher working as
efficiently and effectively as possible, and to ensure
your dishes come out perfectly clean, regular descaling
is important.
