Frequently Asked Questions
The dishwasher accommodates approximately 12–15 place settings depending on the model configuration and basket arrangement, with adjustable upper basket height to fit larger items.
Is this answer helpful?
Yes. For effective water softening and to prevent limescale you should use dishwasher-specific special salt when your water hardness exceeds the threshold. Rinse aid improves drying and reduces spots. The manual explains hardness settings and when salt or dedicated rinse aid are required.
Is this answer helpful?
You can use combined cleaners up to moderate water hardness (typically up to ~21°dH). Above that, separate salt and rinse aid are recommended for best cleaning and drying results. Some indicators can be disabled if they become redundant with combination detergents.

Regularly clean the filter system and spray arms, refill salt and rinse aid as needed, run a maintenance wash with a dishwasher cleaner periodically, and wipe seals and the door to avoid residue. The manual provides step-by-step cleaning and descaling guidance.

Use Eco 50° for energy-optimized routine loads. For heavily soiled pots and burnt-on residues, select Intensive 70° or a higher-temperature program. VarioSpeed can shorten cycle time when needed, increasing water and energy use.

The dishwasher includes child-safety features and warnings. Children under eight should be kept away from detergents and the appliance. Use the child lock if available and store detergents out of reach. Repairs should always be performed by qualified technicians.
Is this answer helpful?
Check water supply, ensure the door is fully closed, inspect filters and hoses for blockages, and perform the reset procedure described in the manual. If faults persist, disconnect power and contact authorized customer service with the product and serial numbers from the type plate.

Product Description
Bosch Serie 2 SBV24AX00E Large-Capacity Dishwasher Manual
Overview
The Bosch Serie 2 SBV24AX00E is a large-capacity dishwasher engineered for efficient, everyday household use. Designed to accommodate 12–15 place settings, it offers a variety of programs and features to handle everything from fragile glassware to heavily soiled pots and pans. Built-in functions such as VarioSpeed (time saving), IntensiveZone, Hygiene, Half Load and Extra Drying adapt washing and drying performance to your needs while optimizing water and energy consumption.
Key features and usage
This model emphasizes user safety and convenience: child lock options, clear indicator lights for rinse aid and special salt, and straightforward controls make daily operation simple. The Aquasensor adjusts water usage by measuring turbidity, while program choices (Eco 50°, Auto 45–65°, Intensive 70°, Glass 40°, Quick cycles and Pre-Rinse) let you match wash intensity to soil level. An adjustable upper basket, foldable tines and optional knife tray provide flexible loading for varied dishware sizes.
Maintenance and correct consumable use are highlighted: the appliance uses a water softening system that requires special dishwasher salt depending on local water hardness, and rinse aid to avoid spots and improve drying. The manual details how to set water-hardness levels, fill salt and rinse aid containers, and disable refill indicators if using combination detergents. Cleaning routines—filter and spray-arm maintenance, descaling and interior care—help preserve performance.
Safety guidance covers proper installation, electrical connection requirements, secure placement (including anti-tilt measures for freestanding use), frost protection for unheated locations, and disposal instructions for end-of-life units. The manual stresses repairs should be carried out by qualified technicians and warns against DIY electrical or plumbing alterations.
Practical tips
- Load large pots in the lower basket and fragile glassware in the upper basket.
- Use combined detergents up to moderate water hardness; above that, use separate salt and rinse aid.
- Run the Eco 50° program for routine, energy-efficient washes; use Intensive 70° for burnt-on residues.
Notes
- The appliance is intended for household use up to 4000 m altitude.
