Installation

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future

EN reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it.

Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding the safe installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.

This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:

-staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;

-farm houses;

-by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;

-bed and breakfast type environments.

Positioning and levelling

1.Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transportation.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.

2.Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or

even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop* (see the Assembly instruction sheet).

3.Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.

4*. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the appliance* on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Anti-condensation strip*

After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any condensation that may form.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the machine, the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.

If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the heating element may be damaged as a result.

This fridge-freezer combination stands out due to its efficient use of space, making it an ideal choice for both small and large kitchens. With its impressive storage capacity, the FDFF has been engineered to cater to the needs of busy households.

One of the primary features of the Hotpoint FDFF is its innovative No Frost technology.

As a result, food stays fresh for longer periods, minimizing waste and enhancing food preservation.

In addition to No Frost, the FDFF features an Energy Efficiency Class of A+, which significantly reduces energy consumption compared to older models. This not only helps to lower household energy bills but also promotes eco-friendly practices, aligning with contemporary emphasis on sustainability.

Furthermore, the FDFF showcases a stylish design with a stainless steel finish that easily complements any kitchen décor. Its built-in handle provides a seamless look while ensuring easy access.

Among its other features, the FDFF includes a temperature alert system that notifies users if the internal temperature rises too high, safeguarding against spoilage. This high-tech alert mechanism works in conjunction with its MultiFlow technology, which enhances air circulation for even cooling throughout the fridge and freezer.

In summary, the Hotpoint FDFF is a perfect blend of innovative technology and thoughtful design. With features like No Frost technology, energy efficiency, customizable storage options, and a chic exterior, it is an excellent choice for any modern home looking to enhance its kitchen experience.
