ding it, to a draining  
duct or a wall drain  
situated between 65  
and 100 cm from the  
floor;  
65 - 100 cm  
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE  
EARTHED.  
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE  
CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.  
The drain hose may  
be connected to an  
under-sink trap. Before  
connecting the drain  
hose from the machine  
ensure that any blanks  
or removable ends  
have been taken off  
the spigot.  
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.  
Where it connects to  
the waste water pipe  
cut end off spigot or  
remove the blanking cap  
Replacement fuse covers:  
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be  
of the correct colour as indicated by the colou-  
red 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.  
If it is placed over  
the edge of a basin  
or sink be sure the  
free end of the hose  
should not be under-  
water.  
Removing the plug:  
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moul-  
ded plug and you should wish to re-route the  
mains cable through partitions, units etc.,  
please ensure that either:  
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere  
rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of ap-  
proval.  
! 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 machine to self  
-syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.  
or:  
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13  
amp cable outlet, 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.  
Electric connection  
Before plugging the appliance into the mains  
socket, make sure that:  
the socket is earthed and in compliance with  
the applicable law;  
the socket is able to sustain the appliances  
maximum power load indicatedon the Tech-  
nical Data Plate fixed on the machine;

Door Mounting Accessories (Fig. 1-2-3-4-5).  
Instructions for the fitter  
GB  
Mounting the wooden panel onto the door and in-  
serting the machine into cabinets:  
In the case where the machine must be shipped for final  
installation after the wooden panel has been mounted, we  
suggest leaving it in its original packaging. The packaging  
was designed to make it possible to mount the wooden  
panel onto the machine without removing it completely (see  
figures below).  
The wooden panel that covers the face of the machine must  
not be less than 18 mm in thickness and can be hinged on  
either the right or left. For the sake of practicality when using  
the machine, we recommend that the panel be hinged on  
the same side as the door for the machine itself - the left.

2 plinth guides (Q)  
Fig. 10  
Adjusting the appliance height.  
Fastening the plinth guide.  
The height of the appliance can be adjusted (from 815 mm to  
835 mm), by turning the 4 feet.  
Should you require the appliance to be placed higher than the  
above height, you need to use the following accessories to  
raise it to up to 870 mm:  
the two crossbars (G); the 4 feet (H); the 4 screws (I); the 4  
nuts (L) then perform the following operations (fig. 11):  
remove the 4 original feet, place a crossbar G at the front of the  
appliance, fastening it in place using screws I (screwing them in  
where the original feet were) then insert the new feet H.  
Repeat the same operation at the back of the appliance.  
Now adjust feet H to raise or lower the appliance from 835 mm  
to 870 mm.  
If the machine is installed at the end of a set of modular ca-  
binets, mount either one or both of the guides for the base  
molding (as shown in fig. 8). Adjust them for depth based on  
the position of the base molding, and, if necessary, fasten  
the base to the guides (fig. 9).  
This is how to assemble the plinth guide (fig. 8):  
Fasten angle P using screw R, insert plinth guide Q into the  
special slot and once it is in the desired position, lock it in  
place using angle P and screw R.  
Inserting the machine into the Cabinet.  
- Push the machine into the opening, aligning it with the  
cabinets (fig. 6).  
- Regulate the adjustable feet to raise the machine to the  
appropriate height.  
- To adjust the position of the wooden panel in both the  
vertical and horizontal directions, use the C and D screws,  
as shown in fig. 7.  
Once you have reached the desired height, lock nuts L onto  
crossbar G.  
To adjust the appliance to a height between 870 mm and  
900 mm, you need to mount strip M, adjusting feet H to the  
required height.  
Insert the strip as follows:  
loosen the three screws N situated at the front of the Top cover  
of the appliance, insert strip M as shown in fig. 12, then fasten  
screws N.  
Important: close the lower part of the appliance front by  
ensuring that the plinth rests against the floor.

Care and maintenance  
To access the pre-chamber:  
Cutting off the water and electri-  
city supplies  
GB  
1. unscrew the lid  
by rotating it anti-  
clockwise (see figu-  
re): a little water may  
trickle out. This is  
perfectly normal;  
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.  
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in-  
side the washing machine and help to prevent  
leaks.  
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning  
it and during all maintenance work.  
Cleaning the washing machine  
2. clean the inside thoroughly;  
3. screw the lid back on;  
The outer parts and rubber components of the  
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth  
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use  
solvents or abrasives.  
Checking the water inlet hose  
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If  
there are any cracks, it should be replaced  
immediately: during the wash cycles, water  
pressure is very strong and a cracked hose  
could easily split open.  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
drawer

Caring for the door and drum of  
your appliance  
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order  
to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.  
Cleaning the pump  
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cle-  
aning pump which does not require any main-  
tenance. Sometimes, small items (such as  
coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber  
which protects the pump, situated in its bot-  
tom part.  
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and  
unplug the appliance.

General safety  
• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.  
This appliance can be used by children aged  
from 8 years and above and persons with re-  
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities  
or lack of experience and knowledge if they  
have been given supervision or instruction  
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way  
and understand the hazards involved. Chil-  
dren shall not play with the appliance. Clea-  
ning and user maintenance shall not be made  
by children without supervision.  
1. remove the plug from the electrical socket.  
2. make sure the water level inside the machine is lower  
than the door opening; if it is not, remove excess water  
using the drain hose, collecting it in a bucket as indicated  
in the figure.  
3. pull outwards using the tab as indicated in the figure,  
until the plastic tie-rod is freed from its stop position; pull  
downwards and open the door at the same time.  
• Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or  
damp hands or feet.  
• Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging  
the appliance from the electricity socket. Hold the plug  
and pull.  
• Do not open the detergent dispenser drawer while the  
machine is in operation.  
• Do not touch the drained water as it may reach extreme-  
ly high temperatures.  
• Never force the porthole door. This could damage the safety  
lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening.  
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circum-  
stances access the internal mechanisms in an attempt  
to repair it yourself.  
• Always keep children well away from the appliance while  
it is operating.  
• The door can become quite hot during the wash cycle.  
• If the appliance has to be moved, work in a group of two  
or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never  
try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy.  
• Before loading laundry into the washing machine, make  
sure the drum is empty.  
Disposal  
Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regu-  
lations so that the packaging may be re-used.  
The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical  
and Electronic Equipment, requires that old household  
electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal  
unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be  
collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and  
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the im-  
pact on human health and the environment. The crossed  
out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it  
must be separately collected. Consumers should contact

The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can  
vary according to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any  
wash options selected.  
For all Test Institutes:  
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle  
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be  
washed at 60°C and 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.  
60°C (2nd press of the button); set wash cycle  
40°C (3rd press of the button).  
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle  
40°C (3rd press of the button).  
3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle 60°C (1st press of the button); temperature of 40°C (press TEMPERATURE button).  
Wash functions  
text “END OF CYCLE” will appear on the display.  
To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the  
“Reduced Creases” button.  
Super Wash  
Because a greater quantity of water is used in the initial  
phase of the cycle, and because of the increased cycle  
duration, this function offers a high-performance wash.

Time Saver  
If you select this option, the wash cycle duration will be  
reduced by up to 50%, depending on the selected cycle,  
thereby guaranteeing simultaneous water and energy  
saving. Use this cycle for lightly soiled garments.  
Extra rinse  
By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increa-  
sed and optimal residual detergent removal is guaranteed.  
It is particularly useful for skin which is sensitive to deter-  
gents. We recommend this option is used with a full load of  
washing, or when a large amount of detergent is required.

Eco Wash  
The Eco Wash function saves energy by not heating the  
water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to  
the environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified  
wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash  
results in the same average time of a standard cycle.  
For the best washing results we recommend the usage of  
a liquid detergent.  
Reduced Creases  
By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be  
modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.  
At the end of the cycle the washing machine will perform  
slow rotations of the drum; the “Reduced Creases” and

Detergents and laundry  
Detergent dispenser drawer  
Special wash cycles  
GB  
Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of  
detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily  
result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause a  
build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to  
environmental pollution.  
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for  
pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.  
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.  
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these  
create too much foam.  
Anti Stain : this programme is suitable to heavily-soiled  
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing  
class that is higher than the standard class (A class). When  
running the programme, do not mix garments of different  
colours. We recommend the use of powder detergent.  
Pre-treatment with special additives is recommended if  
there are obstinate stains.  
Anti Allergy: use programme  
to remove major allergens  
such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.  
Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint machine has  
been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company  
for washing wool garments labelled as hand washable  
provided that the garments are washed according to the  
instructions on the garment label and those issued by the  
manufacturer of this washing machine. Hotpoint is the first  
washing machine brand to be approved by The Woolmark  
Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its washing per-  
formance and consumption of energy and water. (M1126)  
Open the detergent di-  
spenser drawer and pour  
in the detergent or washing  
additive, as follows.

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade  
mark is a Certification trade mark.  
!Do not pour detergent into the middle compartment (*).  
Detergent should only be poured into the compartment 1.  
Delicates: use programme  
to wash very delicate  
garments with decorative features, such as diamantes and  
sequins.  
We recommend turning the garments inside out before  
washing and placing small items into the special bag  
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate  
garments for best results.  
compartment 1: Detergent for the wash cycle  
(powder or liquid)  
For best results liquid detergent should be poured in the  
dispenser immediately before the start of the programme.  
compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)  
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.  
Load balancing system  
Preparing the laundry  
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and  
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates  
continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the  
washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load  
is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced  
spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the  
washing machine performs the distribution process instead  
of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and  
balance, we recommend small and large garments are  
mixed in the load.  
• Divide the laundry according to:  
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label  
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.  
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.  
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the  
weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of wash  
cycles”.  
How much does your laundry weigh?  
1 sheet 400-500 g  
1 pillow case 150-200 g  
1 tablecloth 400-500 g  
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g  
1 towel 150-250 g

and 100 cm from the floor (see “Installation”).  
• The drain hose is connected incorrectly to the sink trap allowing water to run  
into the machine, the drain hose must be positioned higher than the bottom of  
the sink to prevent water flowing down the drain hose.  
• The end of the drain hose has been pushed too far down the standpipe, the  
‘U’ bracket should be fitted 100 mm from the end of the drain hose.  
The machine does not drain or spin • The Pump filter is blocked.  
or F05 error code in the display.  
• The drain hose is kinked (see “Installation”).  
• New Installation - The blanking cap or spigot has not been removed if con-  
nected under a sink.  
• The drain hose or sink trap is blocked.  
• The wash cycle does not include draining, some wash cycles require the drain  
phase to be started manually.  
• The REDUCED CREASES function button has been activated. To complete the  
wash cycle, press the START/PAUSE button (see “Wash cycles and functions”).  
• The ‘Spin Speed’ selector knob is in the “OFF” position.

wash results.  
The programme takes too long  
or The Display changes the estima-  
ted ‘Time to End’ during the pro-  
gramme.  
• Programme times will vary due to water pressure, the incoming water tempera-  
ture and if the wash load goes out of balance. This will increase the programme  
times accordingly (see ‘ The machine wont spin properly’ below).  
The machine vibrates a lot during  
the spin cycle.  
• The feet have not been adjusted, enabling the machine to rock.  
• New Installation - Either the Transit Bolts including the plastic spacers, or the  
Polystyrene Packaging have not been removed when installing the machine.  
• The machine is trapped between cabinets and/or walls.  
• The load is in a slight out of balance condition and machine is spinning, but at  
a lower speed.

The machine is noisy.  
• There will always be some motor, pump and drum noise during spin.  
GB  
The machine wont spin properly.  
• Out of Balance detected when attempting to go into a spin cycle - If this  
happens the machine will continue to try to repeat the distribution of the load  
required before the machine will go into higher spin speeds - This will increase  
the programme time accordingly. This is a safety feature to prevent damage.  
Out of Balance can be caused by washing a single heavy item (eg duvet, quilt,  
etc). - Try the programme again using a different load.  
The machine leaks from the di-  
spenser.  
• The dispenser drawer is blocked with detergent and requires cleaning.  
• The water pressure is too high and requires turning down - turn down the tap  
on the water supply pipe slightly and try again.  
• The machine is tilting forwards - It must be level when in its final position.  
The machine leaks (other than  
dispenser).  
• The fill hose is loose, check both the cabinet and tap ends.  
• The fill hose is tight but still leaks, if so replace the rubber washers, or the fill  
hose is missing the rubber washer.  
• The drain hose is not fixed in properly.  
The indicator lights on the console  
are flashing rapidly.  
• Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and then  
switch it back on again If the problem persists contact the Technical Assistance  
Service.  
The machine smells.  
• The machine requires a service wash. Run a 90 degree wash cycle with deter-  
gent and no laundry.  
The machine door cannot be  
opened.  
• The door will not open until the door lock indicator light goes out shortly after  
the program has finished.  
Door Seal damaged at the bottom.  
• The door seal has drainage holes at the bottom - This is normal.  
• The water level is correct if it can be seen at the bottom of the door.  
The water level is too low when  
the machine is washing.  
There is too much foam.  
• The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text  
‘for washing machines’ or ‘hand and machine wash’ or the like).  
Too much detergent was used - less detergent is required in soft water.  
After completing the programme,  
or before starting a programme,  
the machine has turned itself off  
(no lights).  
To comply with new energy saving regulations the machine is fitted with an  
automatic standby system. Press ‘ON/OFF’ button for 3 seconds to activate  
the machine, it can then either be switched off or a new programme selected.  
General.  
Your washing machine contains sensors that monitor progress during the wash  
cycle (eg: Water Levels, Temperatures, Out of Balance loads, Wash time/pro-  
gress).  
Normally, if your machine successfully completes the cycle, there is unlikely to  
be anything wrong!  
Remember, you will be charged for a service call for problems caused by incorrect installation, as listed  
above.  
Not emptying contents from pockets may cause pump or drain blockages, or may damage the machine.  
Do not wash items which do not have a wash label, or wash items that are not intended as machine  
washable.
