Connect the drain hose, without bending it, to a draining duct or a wall drain situated between 65 and 100 cm from the floor;

the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instructions below.

Where it connects to the waste water pipe cut end off spigot or remove the blanking cap

The drain hose may be connected to an under- sink trap. Before connec- ting the drain hose from the machine ensure that any blanks or removable ends have been taken off the spigot.

If it is placed over the edge of a basin or sink be sure the free end of the hose should not be underwater.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Replacing the fuse:

When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.

Replacement fuse covers:

If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.

Removing the plug:

If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to re-route the mains cable through parti- tions, units etc., please ensure that either:

the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.

!We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case of absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length. Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, that the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 inches). If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause the machi- ne to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.

Electric connection

Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make sure that:

the socket is earthed and in compliance with the appli- cable law;

the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum power load indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine;

or:

the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable out- let, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.

Disposing of the plug:

Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket.

Washing Machine specifications

Hotpoint washing machines have earned a remarkable reputation for their reliability, innovative technologies, and user-friendly features. These appliances are designed to provide effective laundry solutions, ensuring that clothes are cleaned thoroughly while remaining gentle on fabrics. Let's explore the main features, technologies, and characteristics that set Hotpoint washing machines apart.

One of the most notable features of Hotpoint washing machines is their energy efficiency. Many models are equipped with an A+++ energy rating, which indicates low energy consumption. This not only helps in reducing energy bills but also contributes to a more sustainable approach to washing laundry. Hotpoint has made a commitment to environmental responsibility, designing machines that minimize water usage and energy consumption without compromising performance.

Another key technology found in Hotpoint washing machines is the Anti-Stain technology. This innovative feature effectively targets and eliminates a variety of tough stains by optimizing the washing cycle for different fabrics. The machine recognizes the type of stain and adjusts the temperature and wash action accordingly, ensuring that all garments are treated with care. This focus on stain removal is especially beneficial for families with children or those engaged in outdoor activities.

Hotpoint washing machines also incorporate the Direct Injection technology, which pre-mixes detergent and water before it enters the drum. This allows for better distribution of detergent throughout the wash cycle, leading to cleaner clothes and reduced detergent waste. By enhancing the efficiency of the wash process, this technology ensures that clothes come out sparkling clean with less effort.

In terms of user convenience, Hotpoint washing machines come equipped with intuitive touch controls and a selection of pre-programmed cycles tailored to various fabric types and washing needs. Models often feature quick wash cycles, allowing users to enjoy thoroughly cleaned clothes in a fraction of the time. Additionally, many Hotpoint machines offer a delay-start function, enabling users to schedule washes during off-peak energy times or when it’s most convenient for them.

The design and build quality of Hotpoint washing machines also deserve mention. With modern aesthetics and durable materials, these machines can seamlessly blend into any laundry room while ensuring reliability. Furthermore, many models come with a large drum capacity, accommodating larger loads and reducing the frequency of laundry days.

In summary, Hotpoint washing machines combine efficiency, innovative technologies, and user-friendly features to create a superior laundry experience. The blend of energy efficiency, stain removal capabilities, and advanced wash technologies makes them a popular choice among consumers looking for reliable and effective laundry solutions. With their commitment to quality and sustainability, Hotpoint continues to be a leader in the washing machine market.
