Possible Causes

Incorrect cycle rate or differential settings, Thermostat installed near return air grille or draft, Internal sensor calibration offset, Oversized Bosch AC/heat pump system

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No high‑voltage work is required.

  • Check thermostat location: Ensure it is not directly in the path of supply air or near a return grille, which can cause false readings.
  • Adjust settings: In advanced settings, adjust cycle rate, differential, or adaptive recovery options according to Bosch recommendations for your system type.
  • Calibrate temperature: Use the temperature offset feature to correct minor sensor errors after comparing with a reliable thermometer.
  • Observe behavior: After changes, monitor several cycles to see if overshoot improves.
  • Consult HVAC professional: If overshoot remains severe, the cooling system may be oversized or have airflow issues that require professional evaluation.
