Hi Ivy,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
If you press the speed perfect button (bottom left of the display) this will get the cycle completed as soon as possible but will use more energy and water. See page 14 of your user manual to see what other cycles can use this option.
If you need any more help, feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744.

The instruction manual of WAW28460AU suggests turning off the tap after each use? Is this required? The machine has aqua secure? what does that do?

I don’t turn off the tap after each wash. Works well for me

I always do this with any washing machine that I have. It is good practice as it takes the pressure off the inlet pipe, so that if it bursts or a water connection fails, then the amount of water that can escape is greatly minimized.

Hi Darryl,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
Turning off the tap is an extra safety measure. The Aqua secure is a device to assist with flooding but in the unlikely event it fails, turning off the tap will mitigate the risk.

Hi Jane,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
We would recommend checking the drain pump and the drain hose for obstructions. Even maybe where the drain hose connects to your drain pipe. If there is nothing there then a service call would be required to investigate further.
If you need any more help, feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
That error does have to do with the pump. If you've checked what you can then a service call would be needed to check further.

Which setting is the heavy duty wash cycle for work clothes

Bosch H.Bosch Home Appliances

Hi Drew,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
There is no heavy duty wash cycle on this appliance, it all depends on the fabric the items are made out of. Most of the time the Cottons program, designed for hard-wearing fabrics, heat-resistant fabrics made of cotton or linen will do well. You can increase the temperature to a maximum 90 degrees.

I have just had my bosch waw28460au front loader installed, however I’m trying to do the ‘ first initial wash/clean’ that is advised in the instruction manual- though it’s not wanting to start- that machine just beeps twice and will not go into the cycle ? Please help!

Hi Megan,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
If it's not starting a cycle at all we would recommend to check the door is shutting completely, It can take a few times to realise how much force is needed to shut it correctly. If there are any other indicators on the display flashing or lit up it may give you a better idea of what to look at.

Hi Rosemary,
Thanks for the question regarding the Bosch WAW28460AU.
If you're talking about the capacity of our appliances then it all depends on the amount of washing you do, we can't really recommend on that alone. You can go to https://www.bosch-home.com.au/productlist/washers-dryers/washing-machines/front-load-washing-machines to look at the current range our lowest capacity are the 2 7.5kg appliances. These are also the ones with the least amount of different functions.
If you need any more help, feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744 or to go into one of our retail partners stores, found at https://www.bosch-home.com.au/dealer-locator, to discuss more.

Hi my washing machine has just developed a small water leak which appears to be in the spin/empty cycle .. certainly not on the fill wash cycle or from the hoses.
Any ideas on what might be the probem?

Bosch H.Bosch Home Appliances

Hi Trisha,
Thanks for the question regarding your Bosch WAW28460AU.
If it happens during the draining/spin cycle then it's probably a blockage somewhere. If you check the drain pump and drain hose connection and there's nothing there then it might be further in and can only be resolved by a service technician. Feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744 to help arrange this or discuss further. Working with our colleagues in the UK we provide a 24 hours contact from 8:30 Monday to 5:00 Friday so please call at your convenience.

Hi Belinda, this unit only has Aqua Secure not Aqua Stop so it only detects a leak within the inlet hose, not within the appliance itself.
