Error Code: SQUARE WITH CIRCLE AND ONE DOT Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Gentle drying at a low temperature.
How to Fix SQUARE WITH CIRCLE AND ONE DOT Error (Step-by-Step)
- Locate the symbol on the clothing tag; it is a square with a circle that has a single dot in the center.
- This symbol is a specific instruction to use a low temperature setting for drying.
- Place the delicate garment into your Bosch dryer and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
- Select a cycle that utilizes low heat, such as the ‘Delicates’ or ‘Low’ temperature option.
- Avoid high heat, as it can cause damage, shrinkage, or melting of the sensitive fabric.
- Start the low-heat drying cycle and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
- Check the item near the end of the cycle and remove it as soon as it is dry to prevent over-drying.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
