using purchaser, provided that the Product was
purchased:
For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal
household purposes.

returned model), and not for resale, or commercial
use.
Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply only to the first
purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while
not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the
best way for Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a
safety notice or product recall.
Limitation for Third Party Accessories:
Third party accessories, other than those shipped with
your Bosch appliance, and any consequential damages
resulting therefrom, are not covered by this warranty. This
limitation expressly includes the implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose,
which are also expressly excluded with respect to third
party accessories, other than those shipped with your
Bosch appliance. Use of third party accessories, other
than those shipped with your Bosch appliance, does not
void this warranty on any other part, and all other
provisions of this warranty remain in effect.
How Long the Warranty Lasts:
Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred
sixty-five days (365) days from the date of purchase. The
foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or
suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This product is
also warranted to be free from
cosmetic defects in
material and workmanship (such as scratches of
stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents,
or other damage to the finish) of the Product, for a period
of thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or closing
date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty
excludes slight color variations due to inherent
differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as
differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location,
or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty

circuit boards, drive motor or component part of the drive
motor that proves defective under conditions of normal
home use during the first seven hundred thirty (730)
days from the date of purchase, labor charges excluded.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy:
During this warranty period, Bosch or one of its
authorized service providers will repair your Product
without charge to you (subject to certain limitations
stated herein) if your Product proves to have been
manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship.
If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been
made without success, then Bosch will replace your
Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in

superior reputation for customer service and technical
ability (note that they are independent entities and are
not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of
Bosch). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bosch will not
incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if
it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from
an authorized service provider) or is in a reasonably
inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous
locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event,
if you request, Bosch would still pay for labor and parts
and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service
provider, but you would still be fully liable and
responsible for any travel time or other special charges
by the service company, assuming they agree to make
the service call.
Out of Warranty Product:
Bosch is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to
provide you with any concessions, including repairs,
prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has
expired.

I received the washer supposedly brand new but there are clear water marks. The place I received it from claims this is common as they test these washers before shipping them. Is this true?

Yes, it is true that water marks may be present on a supposedly brand new dryer like the Bosch 500 Series WTG86401UC. This is because the dryers are tested before shipping to ensure their functionality and performance. The presence of water marks does not indicate that the dryer is used or defective.

Why is my dryer not turning on?

First, check if the dryer is properly plugged into a power outlet. If it is, make sure the circuit breaker connected to the dryer is not tripped. Additionally, ensure that the dryer's door is securely closed, as it has a safety feature that prevents it from starting if the door is open.

Why is my dryer taking longer than usual to dry clothes?

There could be a few reasons for this. Ensure that the lint filter is clean, as a clogged filter can restrict airflow and prolong drying time. Also, check that the dryer vent is not blocked or obstructed, as this can affect the drying efficiency. If the issue persists, you may need to adjust the drying cycle settings to a higher heat level or check if the load size is appropriate for the selected program.

Why is my dryer making loud noises during operation?

If you hear unusual noises like knocking, thumping, or squeaking, it could indicate a problem. Check if any objects, such as buttons or coins, are trapped in the drum or the lint filter. These can cause noise during operation. Additionally, examine the dryer's leveling to ensure it is stable on the ground, as an unbalanced dryer can also lead to noise issues.

Why is my dryer not heating up?

If the dryer drum rotates but there is no heat, check that the dryer's power supply is not interrupted. Make sure the circuit breaker is not tripped and that the dryer is plugged in correctly. Another common cause of no heat is a blown thermal fuse, which is a safety feature that shuts off the heating element if it overheats. In this case, you may need to replace the thermal fuse or consult a technician.

How can I clean the dryer exhaust duct?

Cleaning the dryer exhaust duct is essential to maintain proper airflow and prevent fire hazards. To clean it, disconnect the dryer from the power source and detach the duct from both the dryer and the wall. Use a specialized brush or a vacuum cleaner with a long, flexible hose to remove lint and debris from the duct. Be thorough in cleaning both ends and ensure there are no blockages. Reattach the duct securely before using the dryer again.
