Operating instructions Bosch WLM24441OE Logixx 6 Washing machine

Introduction

This manual is intended to assist repair technicians in identifying and solving problems with Maxx 5-6-7 series washing machines.
It often happens that the washing machine error indication is directly related to the malfunction of one of the components, and can be reset by replacing the faulty component, without entering a service test.

In some cases, however, no error indication may occur due to a fault in a single component, but the fault can be detected in a special mode (service test). The service test is activated by a combination of actions on the machine controls and is not available to the average user.

This guide provides basic principles for identifying and debugging errors and managing service tests. With this, the repairman can save time and identify the source of the error with confidence before he starts replacing components.

The first question that naturally arises when an error is indicated is whether the problem is electrical in origin (and therefore due to the programmer or other component such as a heating element, drain pump, etc.), or hydraulic, such like a water leak.

The manual will ensure that the necessary checks are carried out to determine electrical faults.

We will provide a diagram indicating the steps to follow when exploring preliminary signal analysis. For LED control panels, the error code can be determined by the combination of LED lights.

Service test

Electronic washing machines can be run in self-diagnosis (service test) mode to check the full range of functions of the machine. This mode is not directly accessible to the user, but can be launched by pressing a key combination depending on the washing machine model. The self-test procedure depends on the model.

The control panel of washing machines of the MAX-5 series is equipped with rotary knobs for selecting a washing program (preliminary, intensive, delicate, hand wash of wool, etc.), buttons for selecting additional functions “Easy to iron”, “More water”, “Quick wash” "

Panels of washing machines of the Bosch Maxx 5-6-7 series can be either with a display or with LEDs.

Absolutely every modern washing machine is capable of signaling problems using an error code. If the device is equipped with a mechanical control board, a malfunction can be identified by the blinking indicators. The error is displayed on the electronic display in the form of Latin letters and numbers. To reset errors, you must fix the problem and, if necessary, perform a series of actions.

Elimination of error E00 for Bosch models

Users of a Bosch washing machine sometimes encounter a situation where the machine displays error E00, but there is no such code in the table. According to experts, E00 does not indicate a problem, but a successful outcome of testing. How to reset the so-called error if there is no need for repairs?

1. First, turn off the power to the unit.
2. After switching on, you need to wait for code E00 to appear.
3. The knob with which you can select programs is set to rinsing.
4. Two actions are performed simultaneously - the handle is put on spin and the revolution button is pressed.
5. The display should show 3 eights.
6. Next, turn the knob to the program for washing jeans.
7. After a few seconds, the device turns off by turning the knob to position 0.

Correct actions will result in the Bosch washing machine error being reset. If, after turning on again, the unit refuses to work, and E00 does not disappear, most likely, the electronic module of the machine will need to be repaired.

Connection to water and sewerage

The connection kit includes an inlet hose equipped with an Aqua Stop function. It must be connected to the inlet valve located on the rear side of the housing in the upper part. Installing the rubber O-ring included in the kit will prevent water leakage.

The next step is to turn off the water and unscrew the hose that goes from the water supply to the tap. There you need to install a tee and screw back the cold water hose and our tube that comes from the washing machine. To ensure the tightness of the connection, a sealant is wound onto the thread.

With a drain hose everything is easier. It just needs to be connected to the sewer. There are several options here. The first is to simply throw the end of the hose into the drainage channel. But we cannot say that this is the most aesthetically advantageous method. The second is to use the sewer outlet, if available. The third is to use a side outlet siphon of a purchased or existing siphon.

Setting up Bosch Maxx 5 and Classixx 5

It is important to remember that before resetting an error on a Bosch washing machine, you need to understand the cause of what is happening. This also applies to equipment from other companies.

To reset errors on the Bosch Maxx 5 washing machine, the following steps are provided:

1. The hatch closes.
2. The program selector is set to position 0.
3. The knob is rotated 180 degrees until the display shows an error.
4. The spin speed button is pressed and held, and the Bosch regulator switches to one section.
5. After 5 seconds, the speed button is released and the program selector is returned to its original position.

Sometimes, in order to reset Bosch maxx 5 machine errors, the procedure has to be performed repeatedly. If the reason that caused the errors has been eliminated, after resetting the Bosch washing machine will work normally.

How to reset the fault code on a Bosch Classixx 5 washing machine if one indicator is on, indicating an error in the hatch lock?

When the Bosch Classixx 5 indicates problems with the lock, but there are no other faults, you must:

• set the Bosch device regulator to position 0;
• click “Start”;
• turn the knob to 11 o'clock.

After the error is reset, the lock must be repaired.

Electrical connection

It would seem that what could be difficult about connecting the SM to electricity? But here there are some nuances that you need to know about. Electrical communications are prepared in advance. It is dangerous to connect the unit to a regular outlet, so today it is popular to use a moisture-resistant outlet.

The outlet must be grounded. To power this element, a three-core copper wire is used, which has a cross-section of 2.5 mm. Expensive equipment requires careful handling. A special stabilizer can protect the machine from voltage surges.

The last piece of advice: you shouldn’t get into the electrical network if you don’t have experience working with them. This is very dangerous not only during connection, but also after, during operation. An experienced electrician can organize the installation of an outlet in a matter of hours and carry out the work professionally.

Setting up other popular models of washing units

Owners of a Siemens washing machine often experience that the machine freezes or an error appears on the display after a repair has been carried out. Removing Siemens errors is carried out as follows:

1. The machine is first turned off (the program selector should be in the “Off” position).
2. The program dial turns to o.
3. The spin speed button is pressed and the regulator is set to position 9 until the code appears on the screen. The rev button cannot be released.
4. As soon as the screen goes dark, the Siemens machine can be turned off and then proceed to normal washing.

Preparing to connect

As you know, washing machines are transported over different distances, so the manufacturer packs them tightly and securely so that they are not damaged along the way. Basically, all the structural elements of the washing machine are located on it. But sometimes they are placed in a separate bag to ensure compactness.

When the washing machine is in the house, first of all you need to remove the packaging and check whether all the components are in place. In the case of home delivery, this must be done directly in front of the delivery person. When unpacking, you need to check the set of fasteners that are necessary to secure the main parts of the washing machine.

Important! The places where the transportation bolts are screwed must be closed with the plugs included in the package. This will prevent dust and dirt from getting inside the washing machine.

In the operating instructions, the manufacturer usually indicates where it is best to install the washing machine. The main thing is that the basic requirements that relate to the safe operation of the installation are not violated. In terms of convenience, it is important that you can easily approach the car.

To ensure normal, uninterrupted operation, it is necessary that there be at least 10 cm between the washing machine and another element of the interior or the wall. Putting things on the lid of the machine during washing is strictly prohibited.

As with any machine, it is important that the Bosch Logixx 6 is placed on a level and solid surface. The use of fabric flooring is unacceptable. If the surface is uneven or there is a “playing floor” effect, then it must be eliminated, strengthened, or another place for installation must be found.

It is not recommended to install the machine on parquet or laminate flooring. Even the most reliable machine, due to poor care and improper operation, can fail and leak. It will not be very pleasant when parquet or laminate absorbs moisture.

In order for the washing machine to work properly, you need to supply water to it, connect the electricity and drain the drain. Naturally, it is necessary to take into account the dimensions of the inlet and outlet tubes and the passage of the wire into the network. It is advisable that the washing machine power cord does not touch the floor and is as high as possible.

Next, the machine is dragged to a clean and prepared place. Hoses and fasteners are also removed there. It will not be possible to move the machine from point “A” to point “B” alone, so all work must be done with a partner.

To prevent the “home assistant” from tormenting the family with rattling and sounds, it is necessary to level it well. Bosch Logixx 6 Sensitive has adjustable feet, which reduces installation time to a minimum.

Resetting errors on a Bosch Classixx washing machine

This manual is suitable for machines Classixx 5, Classixx 4, Classixx 3.

• Make sure the selector is at the 12 o'clock position. Close the washing machine door until you hear a characteristic click.

• Press the "Start" button. Without releasing it, turn the selector counterclockwise 2 notches. The machine will enter the service menu and lock the door. The "Start" button can be released after 2 seconds.
