Depending on the model of your bosch washing machine there are several ways that the child lock can be deactivated.
If none of these solutions work then it may be that your washing machine has a fault with the lock.
The child lock function of your bosch dishwasher prevents accidental program changes and stops children playing with the controls while the appliance is running.
When the child lock is activated there will either be a key symbol or a cl symbol in the display and all the washing machine buttons will be disabled.
You might want to turn the lock off if it has been accidentally turned on.
Hold down the button labeled with a symbol or the words child lock for approximately 3 seconds until the display reads.
We have created a 4 part video series to quickstart your appliance in no time.
Start the desired wash cycle.
