How to Stop a Bosch Dishwasher From Beeping When Done

Most modern dishwashers, like those from Bosch, come with a control interface that allows the user to choose different settings for the appliance. The control panel will often produce notifications, letting you know when cycles are done or if there are problems with the dishwasher itself. These notifications can be messages on a screen, blinking lights or audible beeps (the manufacturer calls them signal tones). In addition, the dishwasher beeps at the end of the cycle, alerting you to its completion. If you find these notifications annoying and want to turn them off or reduce their volume, this can easily be done through the control panel.

Bosch dishwashers often come from the factory with the end-of-cycle notification turned on. If you prefer to silence this alert, the first step is to determine your dishwasher's model.

Bosch-brand dishwashers have an informational label in one of two places: either on the side or on the top of the rim on the door of the dishwasher. The informational label will be on the outside of the rim, and your model number will be listed in a box at the top.

Once you have the model number, you can use the Bosch website to search for your owner's manual and operating instructions. Not all Bosch dishwashers have the same features and functions, so it's best to find the instructions that pertain to your model. In the absence of your owner's manual, you can change the volume on your Bosch dishwasher by following some techniques that are common to many Bosch models. To do so, you will need to take note of the numbers on the display the next time a cycle concludes.
