Instructions for the Bosch maxx 5 washing machine

Many people find it difficult to use new washing equipment. And in the detailed instructions it is quite difficult to find the necessary information. Next, we will consider an abbreviated version of the operating instructions for the Bosch maxx 5 washing machine, which will contain only basic information.

Correct installation of the machine

Bosch Maxx 5 washing appliances should be installed on a reinforced surface. It should be noted that during the washing process the machine may move due to strong vibration. That is why it should be installed level. It’s even better to fix the body by additionally securing the legs.

It is important to note that this washing equipment is heavy. Therefore, you need to be very careful when moving it from one place to another.

After unpacking the machine, you need to check the condition of the case. If damage is found, the equipment must be returned to the store. You don't even need to connect it to the mains.

If the body of the machine has no defects, then you can install it. However, it is necessary to first prepare the place where the washing equipment will be located.

To do this you need to do the following:

Strengthen the floor. It is not at all necessary to make the floor perfectly level, because at the base of the washing machine there are twist-out legs with which you can adjust its position.
Organize the removal of sewerage and water pipes. You also need to install a moisture-resistant outlet for the washing machine.
Check the space in which the washing machine will be placed. The gap between objects located nearby should be at least 1 centimeter.

The fifth Bosch Maxx model contains special transport bolts. They secure the drum during transportation. Before using the machine, they should be unscrewed. These bolts should be collected, but not thrown away. They may be needed in the future.

Then you need to plug the holes for the bolts. It is also necessary to remove the drain and fill hoses from the fixing fasteners. But this is done after moving the washing machine to the installation site.

Then you need to place a building level on the lid of the washer, and then unscrew its legs one by one until the machine is level. The deviation should not exceed 2 degrees. Next you need connect the drain hose to the sewer. It needs to be bent in such a way that water remains in the knee. Then no foreign odors from the sewer pipe will enter the machine. The best connection height is 60 centimeters.

Next, you need to connect the inlet hose to the water pipe. This is done through a tee tap. The connections must be insulated with foam. Tee valve terminals must have a standard diameter (3⁄4 inches). Before screwing on the inlet hose, you must check that all rubber seals are present.

Not worth it connect washing equipment to a water supply with low water pressure. Checking the pressure is very simple. You need to open the tap and then count the number of liters of water that will flow out of the water supply in one minute. Must be at least 8 liters.

At the final stage, you need to plug in the washing machine.But first, you need to check the serviceability of the socket. If at this stage you have doubts, it is better to contact an electrician. It is important that the socket is grounded. It should also cope with the maximum load that the Bosch machine can create.

Powder receptacle compartments

The Bosch Maxx 5 washing machine has a rectangular powder receptacle. To pull it out, you need to pull the handle until it stops. The stopper will not allow you to pull the cuvette out completely.

The powder receptacle contains three compartments:

Bosch maxx 5 powder receptacle

The first compartment (on the right) is marked with the number "I", so you are unlikely to confuse it. It is necessary for pre-washing and, as a rule, is rarely used.
The second compartment (in the middle) contains a picture of a flower. It is used for conditioner, starch or rinse aid.
The third compartment (on the left) is marked with the number "II". It is used more often than the others. This compartment is used for stain remover, Calgon and powder intended for the main wash.

Powder is poured into the first compartment only in cases where the program provides for pre-wash . For example, when washing mixed or heavily soiled cotton laundry.

Do not avoid overdosing on conditioner, powder, and especially bleach. Since this can harm both the laundry and the washing machine. With a large amount of powder, increased foaming occurs . And this can cause a malfunction of the electronic module.

Starting the wash

Do not turn on the Bosch Maxx 5 washing machine immediately after connecting. First, you need to check whether the tee tap is open. You should also check whether water is flowing by gravity into the washing machine tank.

If everything is in order, then you need to do the following:

Control panel Bosch Maxx 5

Turn on the washing machine by pressing the “on/off” button;
Close the hatch;
Add a little powder to the powder receptacle compartment intended for the main wash. Then push the tray in.
Using the program selector, select the laundry washing mode at 900C.
Press the “start” button. Wait until the washing process finishes. After the machine stops working, it can be used as usual.

First start Bosch washing equipment should be performed without laundry in the drum. In other words, the program in this case should run idle.

Starting the washing machine when washing clothes should be done in the same way as when starting it for the first time. But you need to pour in more powder and pre-sort the laundry before putting it in the machine.

To reload laundry during washing, you must press the “start” button. One of the messages should appear on the display. Additional loading can be performed if the message “Yes” is displayed. If the message “No” appears, additional loading cannot be performed. Next, you need to press “start” and the washing process will continue.

It should be noted that the washing program can be changed during its execution. In this case, you need to press “start”, then set the washing mode selector to the required position. Next, you need to press “start” again. As a result, the old washing program will be canceled and a new one will start from the beginning.

Equipment care

A Bosch washing machine will last a long time with proper care. The washing machine hatch should be left slightly open at the end of each wash. Otherwise, air will not get inside the machine and an unpleasant odor or mold may appear. The powder receptacle should also be left open.

After washing, you need to wipe the hatch cuff with a cloth. The same is done with the inner surfaces of the drum and the powder compartments.Dirt quickly accumulates in the garbage filter, so it needs to be unscrewed and washed after every 4-5 washes.

You should also check the pockets of your clothes before putting them in the washing machine drum. Small objects should not remain in them. After using washing equipment, be sure to close the tap.

Do not overload the washing machine with a large amount of laundry. Also, do not put in excessive amounts of rinse aid or detergent. If the machine malfunctions, an error code appears on its display. In this case, you need to contact a service center for help.
