DEVELOPMENT HISTORY
September 2004 Aquarius Plus+ versions WD640 / WD645 enter full production.
Date Code 33
April 2005 Models WD640 & WD645
Date Code 40 Change to Cold Fill and deletion of heater box fluff filter.
On 25th April 2005 (Date Code 40), this range of washer dryers changed from
Hot and Cold Fill to Cold Fill only. Along with this change a modification was
made to the tumble dryer heater box assembly with the introduction of a
straight heating element, this to improve the air flow through the heater box.
This change enables the removal of the heater box fluff filter and deletion of the
flushing valve and hose. The thermistor, one-shot cut out and fan assembly are
not affected. The 4-way valve is replaced by a 3-way valve and the hot supply
hose is deleted.
A new file setting (EEPROM) is used for cold fill machines but the consumer
programmes remain the same for both Hot and Cold and Cold fill machines, the
changes to the heater box assembly does not effect the EEPROM file settings.
All parts that are affected with these changes are listed on Partfinder along with
a Special Notice.
October 2005 Models WD640 & WD645
Date Code 46 Change to 3.5 software along with a new PCB and programme settings file.
The dryer heater box connections J10 also changed with the introduction of the
new PCB. The fan motor connections move from J10 connector to a separate
connection on J16.
May 2006 Models WD640 & WD645
S/N 60508.0000 Re-introduction of flushing valve style heater box assembly.
On 8 May 2006 (Serial Number 60508.0000) the flushing valve and fluff filter
was re-introduced in production, along with spiral element, metal fan,
externally mounted dryer motor and thermal fuse cable which is attached to the
heater box upper casing in place of the one shot cut-out device.
A new file setting (EEPROM) was introduced for quality improvement during
this period. The Cotton fabric drying cycle heat default setting originally Low
Heat has changed to High Heat.

70°C as this could cause damage to the
laundry and the machine. Applies to
products produced prior to D.C. 40.
Do not connect the machine to a single
outlet instantaneous water heater.
The hot and cold water pressure should be
between 3 and 150 psi (21 - 1034 kPa).
Incorrect pressures could lead to flooding.
The water supply taps should be accessible
when the machine is installed.
Before connecting the fill hoses, check that
water is running from the water supply taps
you will use for the machine.
Connect the washing machine to the water
supply using the fill hoses fitted to the
machine.
Do not use old hoses.
Hot & Cold Fill - Cold fill only from D.C. 40
1 Unclip the grey and blue fill hoses from the
back of the machine.
2 Connect the free end of the grey fill hose

DRAINAGE CONNECTIONS
Take care when you remove the drain hose
from the clips on the back of the machine.
All machines are tested with water before they
leave the factory so a small amount of water
may still be in the hose.
Do not remove the hooked end support from
the GREY drainage hose when using any of
the drainage methods detailed below.
You may need to reposition it as required
along the drainage hose.
For drainage into a standard work top sink,
ensure the outlet pipe has a minimum
diameter of 32 mm. If the sink is inset, the front
edge of the basin must be less than 75 mm
from the front edge of the worktop, so that the
drain hose will hook securely into the sink.
Unclip the drainage hose from the back of the
machine and hook over into the sink. Make
sure that the sink is free of any obstructions
and that the sink plug can not fall into the sink,
preventing the water from draining away
freely. Pumped out water may be very hot.
We recommend one of the following drainage
methods:
Stand pipe Fig. 1 1 Make sure that the
standpipe has a
minimum diameter
of 38 mm.
2 Remove the
drainage hose from
the clips on the
back of the
machine.
3 Make sure that the
top of the standpipe
is positioned at
least 500 mm from
the floor (see
Fig.1).
Use the plumbing
indicator line label
on the back of the
machine as a
guide.
4 Place the drainage hose approximately
100 mm into the standpipe.
500 mm
Extending the drainage hose
If the GREY drainage hose is too short, a
longer drainage hose is available from our
Genuine Parts & Accessories Mail Order
Hotline.
WARNING!
The company denies all liability if and when
these warnings are not respected.
The first wash cycle
Once the appliance has been installed and
before you use it for the first time, run a
wash cycle without detergent and no
laundry, setting the 90°C programme
without a pre-wash cycle.

AUTOMATIC FEATURES
Auto Half Load
Auto half load adjusts the amount of water in the wash load depending on the absorbency of
garments in the wash load.
Fabric Conditioner Dispensing
Dispensing of fabric conditioner is achieved by energising both the Pre-Wash and Main Wash
cold valves
Out of Balance Protection
The machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent spinning with an unbalanced load. A calculation
via the motor tacho and control board detects the current drawn by the motor during
distribution.
Before each spin, the controls senses the load within the drum and if the load is calculated to be
out of balance the machine will not automatically spin to the full speed.
There are two levels of out of balance, level 1 @ 480 grams and level 2 @ 1030 grams.
If the out of balance is below level 1 the machine will spin at full speed, if between level 1 and
level 2 the machine will spin at the reduced speed of 600 rpm and above level 2 spin at reduced
speed of 400 rpm. There are 15 attempts at level 1 with 57 attempts in total, this being the same
for both cotton and synthetic spins.
The wool spin has one level of out of balance @ 1.8Kg. The controls will make three attempts to
achieve a balance, if after three attempts a balance is not achieved; the spin is reduced to a
speed of 90 rpm.

THE CONDENSER TUMBLE DRYING PROCESS
The drying process is by means of a closed air system driven by a circulating fan. Air is drawn
internally from the rear of the outer drum, passed over a heating element and returned to the front of
the drum via an inlet through the door seal. The warm air travels through the wash load collecting
moisture, the moist air then condenses on a stream of cold water running down the inner rear section
of the outer drum. The relatively dry air is then drawn back over the element to repeat the process.
The circulating fan, one shot cut-out or thermal fuse cable along with a thermistor to control the air
temperature are located in a heater box assembly attached to the top of the outer drum.
The airflow passes through a filter located within the air duct from the outer drum to the heater box
assembly. At the start of every drying program the filter is automatically cleaned by flushing water
through it by means of a fill valve wired in parallel with the hot fill valve for 5 seconds duration.
On products produced from April 2005, Date Code 40, the filter flushing hose was deleted.
On products produced from May 2006 (Serial No. 60508.0000), the flushing valve system was
re-introduced. See notes on Page 5.
The water supply for the condenser is by means of a direct feed from a cold inlet valve to the rear of
the outer drum and is pumped out approximately every 30 seconds.
The closed air system is sealed by a 'P' trap located within the dispenser inlet hose.
The hose is topped up with cold water every 8 minutes for a duration of 1 second.
There are two heat settings, high and low heat. The default setting is high heat, low heat is selected
by means of a push button on the console. The drying time is selected by means of a rotary switch
also located on the console. The drying times are followed by a 20 minute cool tumble.
Thermal Spin
A thermal spin on the High Heat setting is carried at the start of the of the drying process. The load
is pre-heated to approximately 50°C by the dryer heater with normal tumble action and pump out.
Thethermistorlocatedin the washheater willsense theload temperatureand when 50°Cis achieved
a 5 minute Spin profile will be carried out at full spin speed.
During thermal spin the out of balance detection will operate and maximum speed will only be
achieved depending on the out of balance condition.
On completion of the Thermal Spin, the tumble drying process will commence for the period of time
selected.
Thermal spin is NOT available when low heat is selected.

THREE PHASE MOTOR
These washing machines are equipped with three-phase motor.
Compared with the commutator motor there are no brushes and the stator is delta connected
internally (see diagram).
The three-phase motor has a thermoprotector that cuts in turning off the supply to the power part of
the electronic card and therefore to the motor.
The photo and diagram below give the connection diagram of the windings.
