What model is this Bosch washing machine?

[Davie77]

Hi, can anyone tell me what model this washing machine is? I only have these photos so can't get access to it just yet, but hoping someone might know so I can check out the spec. Thanks in advance!

It looks like a version of the MAXX 5. Although as below, the model is normally shown on the powder drawer. Perhaps yours is a slightly earlier version.

Thank you! It looks close enough.

Would you happen to know where can the caps be bought to cap off the inlet pipe (cold water) to the washing machine. Or is it ok just to turn the valve off and not cap the pipe off as well? (moving home).

You can buy them from Toolstation, but to be honest, usually when folks move home they just switch them off.

There is a label with model and serial numbers on inside the door to the drum.

It would be safest to cap them off as they may drip or leak which could expose you to a claim for damage

It's called a Capnut. The thread is called 3/4" BSP. You may need two.



I also use them on full-bore drain valves on my radiator system, just in case, and they fit on some radiator valves when you have them off for decorating

Screwfix does not sell them, they are a couple of pounds on ebay. I couldn't be bothered to go to a plumbers merchant. You might find them cheaper.

Which also has the date of manufacture, jumbled, as "FD nr"

I have one very similar, I think it is 15-20 years old.
