Hello, I am having trouble getting my IDos sections to wash out. I've used it thrice now, but no water seems to be coming to the IDos sections. It hasn't emptied , even though I'm manually setting the fill level of each . I'm not sure if I'm making a mistake. Please help.

Hi, I have a Siemens iQ 700 WM14W440AU/09 just installed. It’s showing a E29 error code, which has not gone after ensuring water supply is OK. The problem was a blocked supply hose, now rectified and input filter checked OK. Now it won’t reset, the code won’t go away, and it won’t start. Can anyone help me either reset the ( now incorrect ) fault code OR help me figure out what the problem is? Christopher N.

Seal is broken how Much to replace the seal

Bob 4y

That is very disappointing, how long have you had your machine? If it isn't too long, the 4 year warranty should cover it at no cost. The seal breaking is pretty much unheard of with quality German machines.

Angela K. 4y

Thanks for the response. The machine is 6yrs old though.

I have a idos Siemens iq700 and I can’t seem to get both the fabric softener and washing detergent on at the same time. If I select the level of the softener it turns off the other one and vice versa. I want to add fabric softner during the cycle and I can’t seem to do it. Please any advice. I have followed the instructions in the manual and it just keeps switching off the other.

G'Day Georgia, This is so simple, just put you detergent in the left compartment and fabric softener in the centre one before you start your wash, the rest is done automatically. As for fabric softener, I don't use any, I use 2 tablespoons of White Vinegar in the centre compartment and 1/8th the recommended quantity of Detergent along with 2 tablespoons of Bi-Carbonate Soda, this is from Shannon Lush who can be heard on many radio programmes including on the ABC.

Thank you so much! I can’t believe I didn’t even think of that. Also thanks for the tip with the fabric softener! Do you just use add 1/8 of your normal washing powder to the coni and bicarb?

I have recently bought the 8kg Siemens front loader and unfortunately am extremely disappointed. The clothes that are washed are scrunched up and very very wrinkled and tied up into each other when i pull them out. I have called your service number and was given an unsatisfactory response that being to try reducing the spin speed which i have done which made the clothes very wet and was told that i do have to iron some clothes and that will never be not wrinkled! Can you please provide suggestions!? Thank you

Miles A. 7y

This happens to mine and is normal for a high rpm front loader. I simply shake out my clothes before hanging them to dry and most of the time I don’t even need to iron anything. As long as you shake them while they are wet it’s fine.

Sue 7y

Thank you but unfortunately that’s not the case with mine. They are being washed into tangled balls.

Bob 7y

This can be overcome by loading the clothes in intermediate layers of larger and smaller items, this tends to open up the load, give this a try.

Hi Merv. I notice you purchased your machine in 2009. Just wondering if you have the Siemens WM14W440AU or the very similarly named Siemens WM14S440AU? As your review is the only negative one on this page, it'd be great if you could confirm which model you have, Merv. Thanks in advance.

LinnyBling 9y

Hi, i think youve confused me eith someone else. Im not Merv. I bought my machine 2016 not 2009. And i wrote a positive review.

Scenery73 9y

Hi Linny Bling, not confused. I was asking the question to Merv, the person who started this thread. Thank you

I have a siemens BWM14S440au front loader washing machine and I can not open the door as the handle is loose. What do I do?

LinnyBling 10y

Hi Donna, your machine is different model to mine and havent had an issue with the door. If under warranty- maybe contact Siemans or just ask them your question. They may be able to troubleshoot problem in email or phone. Good luck.

Just looking ata new front loader. My Miele has died. I'm upset at how long the wash cycles are on the new machines. Is this a joke. Who has time for 2:5 hrs for wash cycle. How easy is it to adjust the cycle time? I need to know

LinnyBling 10y

Hi am loving my siemens front loader- one of the main things the cycles can be short. On the dial there is a specific 15 min wash cycle- so simple turn the dial to 'quickwash 15 mins' and press start. Other cycles are 30 mins and 45 mins. These are the common ones i use- 'The mixed' cycle is one of the shorter washes. And yes clothes are cleaner than my old top loader.. The time lights up in the LED section when you select a wash so you see how long it takes. There are longer wash cycles for bulky items. Winnings gave me heaps of info b4 i bought machine so maybe a good salesperson can help with further questions. I 'm same as you didnt want those ridiculous long wash times.

Hi Jenko ..so easy,just choose a wash programme depending on clothes,the display touch panel on the upper right allows you to adjust temp,spin time after you have selected a programme ,wool wash will always be cold. I like a lower spin time for towels.

Love this machine IQ 700 WM14W440AU have been using the speed perfect cycle for big wash ..just one button to hit ,takes 1 hour ....have used the shirts wash which has a less ironing function button if you wish to press ,this changes the spin speed ..less creases .Another bonus you can choose to have the child lock engaged or not ,my old machine would not open for 3 mins after the wash had finished...if home alone don't need it .

So good to wash a couple of items in 15 mins. Highly recommend reading the instruction booklet to get the most out of this machine .
