The charity is focused on scientific and cultural discoveries that help continue the work of Robert Bosch. Bringing forward cutting-edge solutions that can easily be incorporated into everyday designs. One that offers users a pleasant experience, while making sure you leave a positive mark on the world.

Offering a wide range of appliances the Bosch name covers airport facilities, commercial buildings, the entertainment sector, the automotive industry, train stations, hotel facilities, and mining facilities. Additionally, the company only focuses on home appliances, power tools, and vehicles that change the way of our world.

Bosch might be a high-ranking company, but from time to time customers have complained about system errors. Fortunately, most of these errors can be fixed on your own. So rather than ignoring the error codes, your appliance is showing its time to note down the Bosh air conditioner error code and get to the bottom of the problem. To help you out we have listed down the most common error codes of Bosh air conditioners.

Troubleshooting

The following problems are not a malfunction and in most situations will not require repairs.

1. Unit does not turn on when pressing ON/OFF button: The unit has a 3-minute protection feature that prevents the unit from overloading. The unit cannot be restarted within three minutes of being turned off.

2.The unit changes from COOL/HEAT mode to FAN mode: The unit may change its setting to prevent frost from forming on the unit. Once the temperature increases, the unit will start operating in the previously selected mode again. The set temperature has been reached, at which point the unit turns off the compressor. The unit will continue operating when the temperature fluctuates again.

3.The indoor unit emits white mist: In humid regions, a large temperature difference between the room’s air and the conditioned air can cause white mist.

4.Both the indoor and outdoor units emit white mist: When the unit restarts in HEAT mode after defrosting, white mist may be emitted due to moisture generated from the defrosting process.

5.The outdoor unit makes noises: The unit will make different sounds based on its current operating mode.

Cleaning Your Air Filter

A clogged air conditioner can reduce the cooling efficiency of your unit, and can also be bad for your health. Make sure to clean the filter once every two weeks.

  1. Lift the front panel of the indoor unit.
  2. First press the tab on the end of filter to loosen the buckle, lift it up, then pull it towards yourself.
  3. Now pull the filter out.
  4. If your filter has a small air freshening filter, unclip it from the larger filter. Clean this air freshening filter with a hand-held vacuum.
  5. Clean the large air filter with warm, soapy water. Ensure to use a mild detergent.
  6. Rinse the filter with fresh water, then shake off excess water.
  7. Dry it in a cool, dry place and refrain from exposing it to direct sunlight.
  8. When dry, re-clip the air freshening filter to the larger filter, then slide it back into the indoor unit.
  9. Close the front panel of the indoor unit.
