Possible Causes

Descaling cycle not completed correctly, Incorrect descaling agent used, Faulty flowmeter or time-based counter, Firmware bug

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Follow all instructions on-screen; do not interrupt descaling once started.

  • Repeat descaling: Run the full descaling program again, carefully following each step and using Bosch-approved descaler.
  • Ensure no interruptions: Do not switch off or open doors during the cycle.
  • Check software updates (if applicable): Some connected models may receive firmware updates via app; update if available.
  • If prompts continue: The flowmeter or control board may be miscounting usage; professional diagnosis is needed.
