How to install a Bosch integrated DISHWASHER

Is there no way to secure the dishwasher to the boards around it so it doesn't move freely?

Mine stops mid-cycle! 😢 there's no blockage that i can see either.

Fitted numerous integrated units in my homes over the years so I thought this would be a no brainer.
Watched your excellent video many times along with studying the instructions.
First its a lot easier it seems doing it with the worktop off especially when making sure the dishwasher does not move when you open the door for fitting the side screws.
Mine was a replacement, last dishwasher lasted just over a year so worktop already in place. Oh my god what a pain that was but got there in the end I thought.
Copied your video to the letter but when it came to opening the dishwasher with the door fitted it catches on the bottom of the dishwasher.
Nothing to say why or what you do about it. Seems strange that yours did not.
Like you I had that little card which I thinks explains what you have to do if the door catches on the bottom of the dishwasher when opening. But there is no other mention of that card or how it works.
I did think about raising the door but then I would have to drop the dishwasher and therefore leave a gap at the top between dishwasher and worktop.
I really do not know what to do, proper explanation in the instructions would have helped.

I wish I'd watched this before buying. I got myself one of these and only now realise you need a cabinet both sides to secure. I have an end-panel on the right, so I guess that means I'm screwed.

Sir, you are a Saint, just got our new Bosch dishwasher and I'm feeling much more relaxed about fitting it, thank you.

Very clear information well presented cheers

How to do it without paper 😅

Thank you for this video, it really is a lifesaver. The Bosch instructions are horrendous and I was very grateful to find this video.

Any advice on how to get the blue protective film off the side when the door is already fitted? I’ve got most of it but lots of small straggly bits are still stuck in certain places 😢

hey great video, I have brand new bosch Integrated unit. quick question on wastewater pipe. mine has what looks like a one way trap in the end closest to sink pipes. if I look at it I cannot blow past it. so I feel either it shouldn't be there or its faulty. no mention of it in install notes. causes an E61-03 which means it can't empty wastewater. it's brand new ! the small piece I'm talking about I can't easily remove either. it makes sense to have it to stop waste from sink going down into dishwasher. painful.

Hi, does a dishwasher need to be connected to the HOT or COLD water supply? Regards

This is gold. Thanks a lot for the explanations. Lifesaver 😊. The Bosch manual make the installation daunting. Not to say that the cabinet door fixing dimensions on the drawing don't fit with the screws positions on the dishwasher door.
Thanks again. All the best.

Nice job, you work very well

Does anyone know if the handle you install HAS to have two points (screws) of contact to the door? I was planning on installing a knob (one screw).

Thanks for a great video. We’ve moved house and taken our old dishwasher with us. Fitting new kitchen next week so just ordered door kit. Is it possible to fit the door without the paper temple? Bosch said two week + wait for template to come from Germany.

Thanks.

Your video saved me! Thanks for the great tutorial

Self adhesive metal tape, on the sides of the adjoining cabinet sides, makes cleaning up food splashes etc really easy

Andy, ur a star you are absolutely right, the instructions to install a Bosch integrated dishwasher are abysmal!! I was sitting there with a confused expression, till I discovered your excellent video, it was even the same model, that I was struggling with, I am now and enthusiastic subscriber, and just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for helping a very confuse Scotsman!! Well done you!

Was going to kit a freestanding in my new kitchen- this has given me confidence to go for and integrated- subscribed and thanks 👍🏻

thank you very much for your instruction video

Thanks alot!! I found it very useful

Always bear in mind what door is being fitted before deciding on the height of the dishwasher.
J-pull/ handleless doors don't have a full 18mm rail along the top so if the dishwasher is up tight to the worktop, the screws used to fix the door to the dishwasher
(the 2 screws at the top) will come through to the area where your hand goes when opening the door and will be visable.
I've been fitting kitchens for 20 years and I've seen this happen.

So simple, IF you don't have a worktop and adjacent sink base cabinet full pipes etc

Thanks - great advice.
I'm trying to remove our old (Bosch integrated) dishwasher to fit the new one. I've removed the screws, which secure it to the side of the kitchen unit, but it still seems stuck in place!

Where are function keys

Great! You are a lifesaver. Like you I just got stuck with the Bosch instructions and the height issue.
Luckily we got the exact same model dishwasher so it all follows as yours. Some good tips along the way.

we had same issue with bosch dishwasher and having to cut the plinth in same way - really poor hinge design compared to others

Thanks very much for that guide, it was very helpful to me as I installed the bosch doshwasher today.

Thank you, this video absolutely saved me. The instructions from Bosch are rather useless.

One question how do you levrl the dishwasher if you already have a workplace fixed?

Ive went out a bought the same bosch dishwasher as you becausevuou dispjayed acwonderful Easley video how to install it. Also i like your idea of sealing inside the unit around all corners for future proof. You have truelly thought out everything which i like about your videos! Keep up the work & ill keep watching.

Thanks.. Just installing the exact same machine today. Finally figured out the instructions after staring at them for an hour (glad to see it wasn't just me struggling) however, your video cleared up a few things nicely. Top man, cheers!

Youre an absolute genius. Saved us £125 really detailed and informative... brilliant 👏

Fantastic video! Thanks: Liked and subscribed. We’d just bought a Bosch dishwasher and I was scratching my head over that awful instruction sheet. Your video saved the day by adding a load more detail and explanation. It gave me the confidence to keep at (and eventually finish) the job.

Unless I missed it, you didn’t say about peeling the cover off the second (outer) side the Velcro pad. I did this and it helped to hold the door in place whilst I sorted out the screws. And being Velcro of course it allowed me to slightly adjust the position of the door before putting the screws in.

Thanks again for a really helpful video.

Our integrated Neff one packed in last week so we’ve a new Bosch one coming on Thursday. We thought about fixing it but it looked too difficult.

Where does the rubber sheet that cones with it go???

How did you opened the door ? It's impossible and you did it so easily

Thanks for this video. The information about the screw to adjust the back legs was what i was looking for.

How far do you know to push the dishwasher back?

After watched i never saw you adjust the legs? Any reason why you never? Good teacher!

Brilliant explanation could you do an integrated fridge freezer too? Cheers

To secure the machine in place the newer ones have 2 flimsy pieces of metal that you screw to the top and bend the ends down before pushing the macine into place. These require to have 2 screws inserted each side.
This system replaces the ratcheting plastic plugs on each side that you show in the video.

Thanks Andy! Looked at the "instructions" and thought, this is going to be a long day!
Anyway, it wasn't so cheers mate 😁

Thanks for this, you make it look so easy. I still don’t know how to do mine ? 🙈 i will start to get some tools. I live in Central London handy man is like gold dust!

Sorry to be nosey.....but why do you have copper pipework running up the wall, where you presumably are going to install your oven/rings ??? Great video. Two outstanding questions for me. 1) why did Bosch supply me with thick green fabric, which they want placed on the floor behind the kickboard and 2) in Stage 1 of the install guide, they show us cutting some material with scissors, any idea what thats about ??? Keep up the good work !!

excellent many thanks just followed your install to do mine brilliant work by you thx

I thought the card was fairly self explanatory, tick is correct, cross is wrong.
Looks to me like you messed up with the door and then edited the mistake out, should have kept it in so people could see your mistake.
