What is the Auto cycle used for?
This is the adaptive everyday program for mixed dishes with an uncertain or varied level of food soil.
The dishwasher checks conditions in the wash water and adjusts parts of the program. A cleaner load may finish nearer the lower published time, while a dirtier load can require more washing, rinsing or heating.
Choose another cycle for: Loads that clearly need a gentle glass cycle or the strongest cookware cycle.
What this means for your load
Sensor-controlled program that adjusts to the detected soil level. Check the appliance display for its current estimate.
Why the time may change: Soil sensing, water temperature, load arrangement and drying options are the main reasons the estimate moves.
Check the full Bosch SHP95CM5N cycle table to compare other programs before starting.
When will it finish?
This variable program depends on the stored cycle, options or sensed load. Use the appliance's current displayed estimate.
Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
