Bosch SGE53U56UC Operating Guide

Large food remnants in the rinsing water not retained by the filters may
block the drain pump. The rinsing water does not get pumped out and cov-
ers the filters.
In this case:
• Disconnect the appliance from the power supply. 
• Remove the filters.
• Scoop out standing water - use a sponge if necessary.
• Using a spoon, pry off the pump cover (see Figures 14-15) until it clicks, 

then grip the cover and pull upward until it resists and then pull forward.

• Check inner compartment and remove any foreign objects.
• Place cover in the original position, press down and engage.
• Reinstall filters.

Before leaving for vacation during warmer weather, besides turning off the main valve, also turn off wa-
ter supply at the nearest point to the dishwasher. During colder weather, please follow the instructions 
for winterizing your unit below.

If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended period of time in a location that experiences freezing 
temperatures (holiday home or through a vacation period), have your dishwasher winterized by a pro-
fessional servicer.
