Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Bosch 6 Avantixx WAQ24461 below.

What temperature should I use for my laundry?

The washing label of your garment shows the recommended washing temperature.

Do I need to use an anti-scaling agent for my washing machine?

It is not necessary to use an anti-scaling agent. Scale deposits can be prevented by limiting washing at high temperatures and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

How do I prevent my washing machine from smelling?

Unpleasant odours can be avoided by occasionally washing at 60 degrees and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

Why is the washing machine not starting when I press the power button?

Regular maintenance is important for optimal performance. Refer to the manual to find the recommended cleaning method for your specific model. Typically, using a damp cloth with a mild detergent is sufficient to clean the drum.

Why is the washing machine making loud noises during the spin cycle?

Excessive noise during spinning may be due to unbalanced loads or objects trapped inside the drum. Pause the machine, redistribute the load evenly, and remove any foreign objects. If the issue persists, consult the manual for further troubleshooting steps.

How do I adjust the water temperature for a specific wash cycle?

The temperature settings may vary depending on the chosen wash cycle. Refer to the manual to identify the appropriate temperature options for each cycle. Generally, the temperature can be adjusted using the machine's control panel or selector dial.
