and Benefits

of Your New Dryer

® Technology

Quiet

Moisture and temperature levels are constantly monitored to
ensure precise drying results for a wide array of fabrics.
Everything from T-shirts to baby blankets come out warm
and soft every time.
Constant monitoring ensures the lowest energy usage
possible, cutting consumption by up to 50% per year.

WRINKLEBLOCK

Dryer Rack
The Nexxt TMdryer rack protects the most delicate fabrics or
a pair of tennis shoes, and it dries without the tumbling. It is
standard on the Nexxt TMPremium model or available as an
accessory.

Sometimes you can't get your laundrYTright when the buzzer
rings. Extended WRINKLEBLOCK
gives you one hour
of intermittent tumbling, preventing creases from setting in
and, ultimately, reducing ironing time.

Stainless

Steel

Performance

Bosch laundry appliances use brushless motors,
suspended pump systems and special sound-deadening
material to keep them exceptionally quiet while in operation.
Which means they can be installed virtually anywhere in the
home without causing a disturbance.

Lint Trap
Our lint trap is conveniently located in the appliance housing
below the dryer door for easy access. The lint trap's fine
mesh filter captures even the smallest lint particles. And to
increase drying efficiency, there's also a lint filter light that
illuminates should the filter need immediate cleaning.

Drum

Nexxt
dryers feature smooth stainless steel drums for the
gentlest of care.

180 ° Door Hinge

MISTCARE
programs utilize added moisture to help relax
fabric, ease wrinkling, and freshen cotton blend laundry
items to reduce odor.

Finally, a dryer door that completely opens up to a full 180°
- making it easier to load and unload laundry. Washer and
dryer doors also open in opposite directions, so when set
up side by side, transferring your damp laundry to the dryer
becomes an effortless task.

Benefits of maintaining greater
distance (clearances) than the
minimum shown include:
• reduction of the risk of mold
formation behind the appliance.
• reduced noise transmission

Water Connection
Attach the dryer water supply hose to a
cold water faucet (the faucet must be
located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the water
inlet valve on the back of the dryer).

Ductwork
The dryer vent system moves moist air
away as your clothes tumble dry. You
can shorten drying times, save energy
and help ensure the safety of the
system by making sure your dryer's
exhaust duct system is properly
installed and maintained.
Important

Points to Consider:

C]

Keep exhaust duct runs (total
length of the exhaust duct system
from the dryer to the exhaust hood
outside) as short as possible (refer
to the table "Maximum Ductwork
Length" on page 12.)

C]

Use the minimum number of
elbows needed when installing the
exhaust duct system. Avoid
placing two 90 degree elbows
adjacent to one another.

To take account of the spatial
requirements and an existing exhaust
air system, the following connection
options are possible for the exhaust air
outlet:
-

on right side of the appliance,
on the underside of the appliance.

11

E3 Check and clean the exhaust duct
system and exhaust hood at least
once each year, and any time you
suspect dryer performance is
decreased.
Remove accumulated lint to
prevent diminished air flow or
clogging of the system.
Professional cleaning is
recommended annually and when
attaching your dryer to a previously
used exhaust duct system.
_1

D

Replace any plastic or metal foil
venting sections with rigid metal or
flexible metal ducting. Rigid metal
ducting is recommended.
Correct exhaust system installation
is the responsibility of the
consumer.
Problems that result from
incorrect installation are not
covered by the appliance
warranty.

All joints should be tight to avoid leaks.
The male end of each duct section
must point away from the dryer.
Whether connecting to an existing
venting system or a new venting
system, make sure that all ducting is
clean and free of lint.
The maximum permitted length for
rigid duct and for rigid duct used with
flexible metal duct is shown in the table
below. If using flexible metal ducting to
connect the appliance to the ductwork
system, the total length of flexible
metal duct used shall not exceed 2.4 m
and can only be used to connect the
dryer to the ductwork system. As the
table below shows, the maximum
overall ductwork length is reduced if
flexible ducting is used.

Additional Safety
Information
Always follow the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(see page 4).

Protection of the
environment
Tips on saving energy
To save energy, money and time,
Bosch recommends the following:
Drain the laundry thoroughly!
Before drying, spin the laundry
thoroughly in the washing
machine. Use the highest possible
spin speed for the type of laundry!
Higher spin speeds reduce the
drying time and the energy
consumption.
Use optimum load!
Use maximum recommended
loads. However, do not exceed
loads.
Clean filter!
Clean the filter before and after
each drying process
(see page 21).
Ventilate the room!
During the drying process provide
an adequate supply of fresh air.
Do not dry unsuitable materials!
Do not dry rubberized or air-tight
items.
Clean and inspect the exhaust
system on a regular basis!
Blockages may extend drying time
or may cause the dryer to
malfunction.

Temporary
disconnection
the dryer

of

Operate your dryer only when you are
at home. If you intend going on
vacation or are not using your dryer for
an extended period of time, you
should:
1. Turn off the circuit breaker.
2. Pull out the power supply plug if
possible.
3. Clean the lint filter.
4. Turn off the water supply.
5. Close the shut-off valve

Laundry
Identification

of fabrics

Observe the treatment symbols on the
textile labels. They provide valuable
information as well as limitations about
the drying process.
Do not dry the following textiles in the
dryer:
Air-tight textiles (e.g. rubberized)
Delicate fabrics (silk, synthetic
curtains)

% Dry woolen or wool-rich textiles
with dryer rack only!
% Use the time program "Air fluff/No
heat" to dry articles containing
foam rubber or similarly textured
rubber-like materials.

In principle, the following applies to all
drying programs:
To ensure a uniform drying result,
sort the laundry according to fabric
type and drying program.
Fasten zippers, hooks and eyes.
Fasten loose belts, apron strings,
etc..
Do not overdry easy-care laundry risk of wrinkling! Leave laundry to
dry in the air.
Do not iron laundry immediately
after drying. Place the laundry in a
pile for a short while. Residual
moisture will then be distributed
uniformly.
Knitted textiles (e.g. T-shirts,
cotton jersey laundry) often shrink
when dried for the first time. Do
not use the "Very dry/Extra dry"
program.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning the exhaust
The access panel located on the
bottom left of the dryer is for Service
Access and is to be opened only by
an Authorized or Qualified Service
Technician. (Panel may be hidden
from view by door extension).

duct

Inspect and clean the exhaust ducting
at least once a year to prevent
clogging. A partially clogged exhaust
will lengthen the drying time and will
result in poor performance of the dryer.

Cleaning the bearing
shield
Over time, fluff from the drying process
collects in the bearing shield.

Turn off the circuit breaker
Pull out power supply plug
Close the shut-off valve.
Disconnect the duct from the
dryer.
Vacuum and reconnect the duct.

Remove gas connection before
moving the dryer to clean the duct.
Be careful not to damage the gas
connection when cleaning the duct.
Refer to page 10 for instructions on
how to re-establish the gas
connection.

Cleaning the moisture
sensor
The moisture sensor has to be cleaned
because a fine layer of transparent
buildup is deposited on the sensors.

This fluff can be easily removed using
your vacuum cleaner, at least once a
month.

Cleaning the MISTCARE TM
Nozzle
Once a year inspect the nozzle outlet.
If you suspect blockage, wipe the
outside of the nozzle with a cloth
moistened with vinegar. If the nozzle is
completely blocked, consult the
troubleshooting guide (see page 26) for
removal and cleaning instructions. If
the nozzle remains blocked, call
customer service (see page 26).

Cleaning the dryer

TO AVOID
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
Never use solvents or highly
flammable liquids for cleaning.

Incorrect cleaning may damage the
dryer. Do not spray with a water jet.
Do not use scouring agents or
all-purpose cleaners. Do not use
steam cleaners.
Wipe the housing and fascia with a soft
cloth and soapy water only.
Wipe the drum, door seal and inside of
the door with a damp cloth only.

This deposit can easily be removed by
wiping the sensors (the two bars next
to the lint filter) with a cloth and a little
white vinegar.
Use white vinegar only!
Clean the moisture sensor once a
month.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
Bosch Nexxt ® Clothes Dryer
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to: The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances Corporation (Bosch)
_
_
in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch Nexxt ® Clothes Dryer ('Product)
sold to you, the first
using purchaser, but strictly conditioned on the Product having been purchased: (1) for your normal, household (non-commercial)
use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes (any commercial use or setting of the Product
automatically voids the warranty); (2) new at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously returned model) purchased directly by the
end-user consumer, and not for resale, or commercial use; and (3) within the United States or Canada, and has at all times
remained within the country of original purchase. The warranties stated herein apply only to the first purchaser of the Product and
are not transferable. The warranty is automatically void if the Product was a display model, sold "as is", tampered with, a
damaged or "scratch and dent" model, or a previously returned model, a free give-away, charitable donation or contest prize.
• Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for
Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts: Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period
of three hundred sixty-five days (365) days from the date of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy: During this warranty period, Bosch or one of its authorized service providers will
repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been
manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without
success, then Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in Bosch's sole discretion, for an
additional charge). All removed parts and components shall become the property of Bosch at its sole option. All replaced and/or
repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended
with respect to such parts. Bosch's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only,
using a Bosch-authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, Bosch
highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an un-authorized servicer; Bosch will have no
responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone other than an
authorized service provider work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID.
Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on Bosch products, and who
possess, in Bosch's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent
entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of Bosch). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch will not incur
any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service
provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such
event, if you request, Bosch would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but
you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they
agree to make the service call.

state, local, city, or county electrical, plumbing and/or building codes, regulations, or laws, including failure to install the product in
strict conformity with local fire and building codes and regulations; (5) ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease

excessive moisture or extended exposure to humidity, lightning, power surges, structural failures surrounding the appliance, and
acts of God. In no event shall Bosch have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for damage to surrounding property, including
cabinetry, floors, ceilings, and other structures or objects around the Product. Also excluded from this warranty are scratches,
nicks, minor dents, and cosmetic damages on external surfaces and exposed parts; Products on which the serial numbers have
been altered, defaced, or removed; service visits to teach you how to use the Product, or visits where there is nothing wrong with
the Product; correction of installation problems (you are solely responsible for any structure and setting for the Product, including
all electrical, plumbing or other connecting facilities, for proper foundation/flooring, and for any alterations including without
limitation cabinetry, walls, floors, shelving, etc.); and resetting of breakers or fuses. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THIS
WARRANTY SETS OUT YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCT, WHETHER THE CLAIM ARISES IN
CONTRACT OR TORT (INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OR NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE. THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF
ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY LAW, WHETHER FOR
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR THE
PERIOD THAT THIS EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EFFECTIVE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR

EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION TIME AWAY FROM WORK, HOTELS AND/OR RESTAURANT MEALS,
REMODELLING EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH ARE DEFINITIVELY CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY BY Bosch,
OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE
LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO
HAVE OTHER RIGHTS, WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE. No attempt to alter, modify or amend this warranty shall be
effective unless authorized in writing by an officer of BSH.
How to Obtain Warranty Service: To obtain warranty service for your Product, you should contact the nearest Bosch

Pour eviter Risque d'explosion!
Utilisez un tuyau d'alimentation en
gaz neuf et homologue AGA ou
CSA.
Installez un robinet de fermeture.
Serrez de maniere sore tous
les raccords de gaz.
Demandez a une personne qualifiee
de verifier que la pression du gaz ne
depasse pas 14" (colonne d'eau)/
3,49 kPa/0,509 psig (gaz naturel et
propane).
Cette personne quali%e peut _tre
par exemple :
- un technicien detenteur d'une
licence d'entretien des appareils
de chauffage,
- le personnel agree du fournisseur
du gaz,

Protection de
I'environnement
Conseils pour economiser
I'energie

Ne faites marcher votre seche-linge
que pendant que vous vous trouvez
votre domicile. En prevision d'un depart
en vacances ou si vous devez ne pas
utiliser le seche-linge pendant une
periode prolongee, vous devrez :
1. Ramener le disjoncteur en position
eteinte.
2. Debrancher la fiche m_le de
la prise de courant (si possible).
3. Fermez le robinet de gaz.
4. Fermez le robinet d'eau
5. Nettoyer le filtre a peluches.

de

Pour economiser de I'energie, de
rargent et du temps, Bosch vous
recommande ceci :
Essorez suffisamment le linge.
Avant le sechage, faites bien
essorer le linge dans le lave-linge.
Servez-vous de la plus haute
vitesse d'essorage possible
adaptee au type de linge. Une
vitesse d'essorage assez elevee
reduit la duree du sechage et la
consommation d'energie.
Mettez la charge maximale de
linge.
Mettez une charge de linge
correspondant au maximum
recommande. Ne chargez
toutefois pas de quantites
excessives de linge.
Nettoyez le filtre.
Nettoyez le filtre avant et apres
chaque seance de sechage
(voir page 50).
Aerez la piece.
Pendant la seance de sechage,
veillez ace qu'il arrive
suffisamment d'air frais dans
la piece.
Ne sechez pas de materiaux
inadaptes!
Ne faites pas secher de pieces de
linge enrobees de caoutchouc ou
hermetiques.
Nettoyez et inspectez
regulierement le systeme
d'evacuation !
Les blocages peuvent prolonger la
duree de sechage ou emp_cher le
seche-linge de fonctionner
correctement.
