Bosch 3.81 cu ft Nexxt 500 Plus Series Washer - WFMC530 1UC / SUC / CUC / WFMC530CUC - Champagne Du

New machine, manual says run a spin cycle, can't... (by 3 users)

posted by JuHu on Dec 30, 2007


The manual of my new Bosch Nexxt tells me to run a spin cycle with a small load. This is supposed to help with leveling, and it seems to be hinting at a spin only cycle. I can't figure out how to make it spin only. The manual hints at a spin only when it talks about the Refresh option.
Thanks for any hints!

Solution #1
If I could find a "spin" only function I would press it. There is no spin button or selection that is obvious.

Solution #2
Yes of course the shipping bolts are removed. I'm not saying it won't spin I'm asking for the magic buttons to make it do a spin cylce with no water added. The manual hints at this but no telling how.

The only way to get it to spin, is to totally run a whole new washing program. And this machine is supposed to be energy efficient? Even after running the load thru another whole cycle; no spin at all. You could count the rpm's, at about 60 to 120 a minute. I could spin the clothes faster by hand. Bring back the "scrub board"!!

Unfamiliar with your machine; why not try by putting your machine on, inserting the small load (there shd be a small load button), then pressing the "spin" only function - & then "start".

Washing machines are much more complex than driving cars, the manuals dont print that. They are close to outer space modules....
