BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: explanation of markings

Like many other brands, BOSCH includes in the labeling of its products certain information about their parameters and capabilities. Every letter and every number has a meaning here.

Thus, the number 8 in the name of the series indicates that the machines belonging to it are capable of washing eight kilograms of laundry at a time.

Logixx 8 usually have markings starting with the letter combination WAS, where “W” means “Washer” - washing machine, “A” - a unit with front loading of a standard depth of 60 cm. The letter “S”, in fact, duplicates the number 8 in the series name and means a premium load of 8 kg.

The first two digits of the number indicate the spin speed. To confuse consumers, the company removed the last zeros from this indicator, and multiplied what was left by two. Simply put, if the number starts with the number 20, this means that the model spins at a speed of 1000 revolutions, if the number contains the number 28, then the spin speed will be 1400 revolutions.

The next two digits of the number are the machine control type. The first one points to the display. On Logixx 8 machines, it can be symbolic, in which case the number will contain the number 4, or text, marked with the number 7.

Subsequent numbers can mean various characteristics of the car, for example, its design, the presence of the “aquastop” function and other parameters, which, in any case, can always be found in the description.

The letters “B” or “S” after the digital marking mean that this model was released not in white, but in black or silver.

The model number ends with two letters, which indicate the country where the car was manufactured. In domestic retail outlets, you mainly find models marked with the combination “OE”, which means, as you might guess, Russian production.

Specifications

According to the factory instructions, the machine has the following dimensions: 40*65*90 cm. The protruding part of the structure is taken into account. The weight of the unit is 60 kg. In order to provide it, 2.3 kW of power is required. Voltage value 220-240 V, frequency 50 Hz. The minimum water pressure is about 1 bar. The maximum value is 10 bar.

Our article contains instructions in an abbreviated version without additional information. When operating this washing machine, it is important to follow safety precautions in the same way as when operating any other. If you do not find the necessary information, then you need to look for it in the instructions.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: general characteristics

The machines of this series, with increased capabilities for loading laundry, have undistinguished standard dimensions (60 x 60 x 85 cm). The models provide “A” class washing with economical energy consumption at “A” and “A+” levels. Depending on the model, the spin speed can be 1000, 1200 or 1400 rpm.

Water consumption per cycle (cotton, full load, washing temperature 60 degrees) is 56 liters, energy consumption is 1.35 kilowatts.

The quiet operation of the series machines is also ensured by a special noise and vibration absorption system AntiVibration. The essence of the system lies in the special design of the side walls of the units.

The machines of the series are equipped with trays for detergents of three sections, of which two are intended for bulk products and one for liquid products.

The manufacturer provides a one-year warranty on all models.

Tank, drum and electrics

The main working parts of any such machine are the tank and the drum, as well as the electrics, which will ensure the operation of the washing machine in various modes. Bosch devices use the following parts:

1. A bolt that is designed to secure the drum pulley.
2. The large drum pulley is designed to transmit the rotation from the electric motor to the drum.
3. The back wall of the tank where laundry was loaded.
4. Bearings that allow the drum to rotate.
5. The drive belt connects the axle, which is rotated by the motor, and a pulley attached to the drum.
6. A stopper that stops the drum.
7. A metal drum together with a special cross with a bushing.
8. Large rubber seal for the tank.
9. Counterweight.
10. The mechanism by which a counterweight is attached.
11. Bolts that provide reliable fastening of the washing machine motor.
12. Front engine mounts.
13. An electric motor that rotates the tank.
14. Electric motor brushes.
15. Rear engine mounts.
16. Stands for mounting the tank. They are designed for shock absorption, which dampens the rocking of the machine, which can occur due to the rapid rotation of the drum.
17. A mechanism designed to fix the heating element.
18. An element that heats water to the desired temperature.
19. Thermistor is a temperature sensor, based on the data of which water heating is controlled.
20. A clamp that is designed to secure the cuff.

22. Thin rubber gasket.
23. Front counterweight-stabilizer.
24. Front of the tank.
25. Springs that are designed to hang the tank.

The listed details related to this group are not complete. Here it is necessary to add various connecting wires and terminals that ensure the operation of the electrical system of the Bosch machine.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: control

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines are equipped with electronic control, which is carried out using a rotary programmer, buttons and an LCD display.

Using the programmer, you can select one of the washing programs. The buttons allow you to set additional options: washing temperature, spin speed, degree of soiling of the laundry, delayed start, economical washing, ironing, interface language, sounds, etc. The programmer can be rotated in both directions.

The display shows data regarding the parameters and the washing stage, error codes, activation of protection functions, time remaining until the end of the wash, etc.

Models of the series do not have the function of auto-weighing laundry, but can determine its approximate amount by volume (drum loading indication). In accordance with this, the machine determines the amount of water required for washing (therefore, less electricity will be spent on heating it). The display shows recommendations regarding the use of detergents (as a percentage of the full load).

Preventive Maintenance

In order for the washing machine to go without repair for as long as possible, you need to regularly clean the filters installed in it.
Particular attention should be paid to the drain filter: it is recommended to clean this element every 2 to 3 washes. It is advisable to clean the drain pump and lubricate the bearing seals at least once every six months.

To reduce the formation of scale, you need to install a filter with a softening cartridge (it can be regenerated using various substances) or a hydromagnetic system with a mechanical cleaning filter in front of the machine in the water supply.

Owners of Indesit washing machines periodically encounter minor breakdowns of the unit. Indesit washing machine: do-it-yourself faults and repairs of some types of breakdowns will be discussed in this article.

We will look at what types of country toilets and sewerage systems there are in this review.

Washing machines BOSCH Logixx 8: hatch and drum

The hatch in Logixx 8 models has a diameter of 32 cm, which is slightly larger than the standard dimensions. This makes loading and unloading bulky items easier. The opening angle of the hatch is 165 degrees.

The glass of the hatch has a special shape, which helps to redirect the laundry during the washing process to the center of the drum, smoothly moving it in a horizontal plane, which ensures high-quality and at the same time gentle washing.

Modifications of Logixx 8 are equipped with an innovative VarioSoft drum, which, in addition to perforation, has drop-shaped protrusions, one side of which is very flat, the other is steeper. When washing durable items, the drum rotates so that it is exposed to the “steep” side, which provides a stronger mechanical treatment. When delicate wash programs are selected, the drum rotates in the other direction, and the flat side of the droplets acts very gently on things.

Main nodes

This device has many parts that belong to the following groups:

1. Those parts that relate to the control panel.
2. Various parts of the body.
3. Electrical devices, tank and drum.
4. Hydraulics.

In the future, each of them will be considered separately.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: washing programs

Logixx 8 series machines have fourteen built-in washing programs, as well as the ability to set your own program according to special parameters (in some models you can store not one, but two of your own programs in memory). The list includes several washing modes for cotton, synthetics, silk and delicate fabrics, shirts and blouses, down jackets, wool, children's clothing, sportswear. There is also a quick cycle for washing mixed laundry at a temperature of 40 degrees, as well as a super-fast wash in fifteen minutes. Among the special programs, in addition to the standard drain, spin and rinse, there is a delicate spin program.

Delicate items are washed with short spins after rinses, and wool is washed without spinning at all. If desired, the spin/gentle spin can be activated additionally after the main cycle has completed. The super-short wash cycle is also performed without spinning.

The washing program for children's clothes uses more water and more active rinsing, which ensures good leaching of detergent chemicals from the fabric. This program is recommended for use by all people with sensitive skin and allergies. The anti-allergenic effectiveness of the children's regimen has been confirmed by the European Center for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF).

All washing programs include pauses in the rotation of the drum, necessary for better saturation of the fabrics with the washing solution.

Most programs have various additional functions available, which we will discuss in the following sections.

It should be remembered that the maximum load of 8 kg series machines is only possible when washing cotton products. Other programs have a reduced download. Thus, it is recommended to wash synthetics and sports items in an amount of 3.5 kg, and delicate linen and woolen items - no more than 2 kg.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: stain removal

The machines of this model range have a built-in program that allows you to cope with sixteen types of stains from:

• cosmetics
• blood
• red wine
• eggs
• baby food
• herbs
• land
• tomatoes
• berries
• citrus
• tea
• coffee
• sweat
• chocolate
• fat

Manufacturers have identified dirty socks as a separate type of stain.

To remove stains, you should load laundry with one type of stain into the machine: it is impossible to wash stains of different origins in one cycle.

Depending on the type of contamination, the machine will automatically select the duration of soaking, washing temperature, number of rinses, intensity of movement of the laundry in the drum and other parameters.

For example, if blood stains are selected in the settings, then the process of removing them will begin in cold water (in hot blood, its particles coagulate and “stick” tightly to the fibers). But egg stains will be washed off in warm water with an increased amount of water and additional rinsing.

For better results, manufacturers recommend not waiting for stains to become old, but washing them fresh. In this case, the solid components of the stains should be removed with a brush or other means before loading the laundry into the drum.

If any contaminants were removed using chemical solvents, their remains should be removed manually.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: additional features and capabilities

The series machines have a large number of additional features.

One of them - Vario Perfect - allows you to use each washing program in one of three modes: standard, accelerated (Speed ​​Perfect) and economical (Eco Perfect).

The “easy ironing” option, which is activated by a special button, is convenient. A special algorithm for rotating the drum allows you to straighten the laundry and avoid the appearance of creases and folds.

If during the washing process the housewife remembers that she did not load all the things into the drum, then thanks to a special electromagnetic hatch lock and the presence of a “Start/reload” button.

BOSCH Logixx 8 models are equipped with the 3D-Aquaspar function, which is implemented due to special perforation of the drum and additional water injection through the hatch cuff. This ensures intensive and complete hydration of laundry, improves the quality of washing and rinsing and reduces cycle time. As manufacturers write in advertising brochures, laundry is not only bathed in such machines, but also showered.

The end of the program will be notified by a sound signal, the volume of which can be changed in the settings.

Price list for repairs

The final cost of repair depends on how serious the damage is. You can find out the approximate price now from the tables below. Only a specialist can determine the exact amount during diagnostics.

BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines: protection

Manufacturers have taken great care of the safety of the machine. So, there is child protection (locking the hatch and buttons), electronic control over foam formation (if the amount of foam increases, the machine will activate an additional rinse cycle), 3D touch control over imbalance.

The AquaStop system of guaranteed leakage protection deserves special attention. In Bosch machines, their organization was approached with special attention. In addition to a particularly durable inlet hose, capable of withstanding seven times the water pressure in the water supply system (70 atmospheres) and placed in an especially strong protective shell, this system includes a solenoid valve placed at the end of the inlet hose at the point of connection to the water supply, and at the bottom of the machine - the tray with a float that controls the presence of water and a microswitch. If the inlet hose is damaged or there is a water leak in any other part of the machine, the AquaStop system will immediately close the inlet hose valve and block the water supply.

Bosch is so confident in the effectiveness of its anti-leak system that it offers a lifetime warranty and promises to reimburse customers for any costs associated with a leak due to a faulty AquaStop.

Most common faults

According to Bosch service center technicians, the most common breakdowns are:

• During washing, the water does not heat up;
• Water does not drain;
• The drum does not rotate;
• The washing machine drum makes noise;
• Water does not fill;
• The electric motor does not start.

When analyzing faults, we can come to the conclusion that in Bosch washing machines the heating element most often fails. If the heating element is broken and the electronic system is working properly, the repair will not take much time.

However, if the electronic system also fails, then repairs will be quite expensive. After all, you will have to replace electronic modules and call a technician.

Washing machines BOSCH Logixx 8: price

Despite the fact that premium-class equipment cannot be too cheap, prices for BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machines start from eighteen to twenty thousand rubles. At the same time, buying such a car today is not easy. The fact is that it was discontinued and was replaced by new, even more advanced models of the eighth series. On most retail chain websites, the product is listed as “out of stock.”

But the BOSCH Logixx 8 washing machine can be bought on private message boards, where used household appliances are presented. Here prices for Logix 8 are in the range of 10 – 14 thousand rubles.

Washing machines BOSCH Logixx 8:

Users respond quite well to the models of the BOSCH Logixx 8 line. The advantages include good loading, quiet operation, a large set of functions, and, without unnecessary bells and whistles, the presence of a super-short washing cycle. Customers are quite satisfied with the quality of washing.

As for the shortcomings, users note that the display constantly lights up during operation (it turns out that this irritates many), a weak hatch handle, which can break off if you are not careful, as well as a drum, the perforation of which sometimes spoils delicate things. Well, the weak point of all inverter motors: they burn when there is a voltage drop in the network. Logix 8 series machines are not spared this problem either.
