Special programme  
Delicates (programme J for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it  
only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (J at 30°C), you  
can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.  
We recommend the use of liquid detergent.

Note: to avoid excessive vibrations, before every spin cycle the machine distributes the load in a uniform manner  
by continuously rotating the drum at a speed which is slightly faster than the normal washing speed.  
When, despite repeated attempts, the load is still not evenly distributed, the machine spins at a lower speed  
than the set frequency.  
If the load is excessively unbalanced, the machine attempts to distribute it instead of spinning.  
The balancing attempts may extend the total duration of the cycle, up to a maximum of 10 minutes.

Detergents and laundry  
Detergent dispenser  
Special items  
G B  
Good washing results also depend on the correct  
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent  
won't necessarily make for a more efficient wash,  
and may in fact cause build up on the interior of  
your appliance and even pollute the environment.  
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow  
case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without  
exceeding half the appliance load. Use programme  
L which excludes the spin cycle automatically.  
Quilted coats and windbreakers: if they are  
padded with goose or duck down, they can be  
machine-washed. Turn the garments inside out  
and load a maximum of 2-3 kg, repeating the rinse  
cycle once or twice and using the delicate spin  
cycle.  
Open up the detergent  
dispenser and pour in  
the detergent and  
fabric softener, as  
follows.  
Trainers: remove any mud. They can be washed  
together with jeans and other tough garments,  
but not with whites.

Wool: for best results, use a specific detergent,  
taking care not to exceed a load of 1,5 kg.  
compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash  
( p o w d e r )  
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash  
cycle (powder or liquid)  
Liquid detergent should only be poured in  
immediately prior to the wash cycle start.  
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)  
The fabric softener should not overflow from the  
grid.  
! Do not use hand wash detergent because it may  
form too much foam.  
Preparing your laundry  
Divide your laundry according to:  
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.  
- the colours: separate coloured garments  
from whites.  
Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.  
Do not exceed the weight limits stated below,  
which refer to the weight when dry:  
Sturdy fabrics: max 5,5 kg  
Synthetic fabrics: max 2.5 kg  
Delicate fabrics: max 2 kg  
Wool: max 1,5 kg  
How much does your laundry weigh?  
1 sheet 400-500 g  
1 pillow case 150-200 g  
1 tablecloth 400-500 g  
1 bathrobe 900-1.200 g  
1 towel 150-250 g

Precautions and advice  
! The washing machine was designed and built in  
compliance with the applicable international  
safety regulations. The following information is  
provided for your safety and should consequently  
be read carefully.  
recovery and recycling of the materials they  
G B  
contain and reduce the impact 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 their local authority  
or retailer for information concerning the  
correct disposal of their old appliance.  
General safety  
This appliance has been designed for non-  
professional, household use and its functions  
must not be changed.  
This washing machine should only be used by  
adults and in accordance with the instructions  
provided in this manual.  
Saving energy and respecting the  
environment  
Environmentally-friendly technology  
If you only see a little water through your  
appliance door, this is because thanks to the  
latest Hotpoint technology, your washing machine  
only needs less than half the amount of water to  
get the best results: an objective reached to  
respect the environment.  
Never touch the washing machine when  
barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.  
Do not pull on the power supply cable to unplug  
the appliance from the electricity socket. Pull  
the plug out yourself.  
Do not open the detergent dispenser while the  
appliance is in operation.  
Saving on detergent, water, energy and time  
To avoid wasting resources, the washing  
machine should be used with a full load. A full  
load instead of two half loads allows you to save  
up to 50% on energy.  
Do not touch the drain water as it could reach  
very high temperatures.  
Never force the washing machine door: this  
could damage the safety lock mechanism  
designed to prevent any accidental openings.  
The pre-wash cycle is only necessary on  
extremely soiled garments. Avoiding it will save  
on detergent, time, water and between 5 and  
15% energy.  
In the event of a malfunction, do not under any  
circumstances touch internal parts in order to  
attempt repairs.  
Treating stains with a stain remover or leaving  
them to soak before washing will cut down the  
need to wash them at high temperatures. A  
programme at 60°C instead of 90°C or one at  
40°C instead of 60°C will save up to 50% on  
energy.  
Always keep children well away from the  
appliance while in operation.  
The appliance door tends to get quite hot during  
the wash cycle.  
Should it have to be moved, proceed with the  
help of two or three people and handle it with  
the utmost care. Never try to do this alone,  
because the appliance is very heavy.  
Use the correct quantity of detergent  
depending on the water hardness, how soiled  
the garments are and the amount of laundry  
you have, to avoid wastage and to protect the  
environment: despite being biodegradable,  
detergents do contain ingredients that alter  
the natural balance of the environment. In  
addition, avoid using fabric softener as much as  
possible.  
Before loading your laundry into the washing  
machine, make sure the drum is empty.  
Disposal  
Disposing of the packaging material:  
observe local regulations, so the packaging can  
be re-used.  
If you use your washing machine from late in the  
afternoon until the early hours of the morning,  
you will help reduce the electricity board's peak  
load.  
The European Directive 2002/96/EC 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  
If your laundry has to be dried in a tumble dryer,  
select a high spin speed. Having the least water  
possible in your laundry will save you time and  
energy in the drying process.

Care and maintenance  
Cutting off the water or electricity  
supply  
Cleaning the pump  
G B  
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning  
pump that does not require any maintenance.  
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)  
may fall into the pre-chamber that protects the  
pump, situated in the lower part of the same.  
Turn off the water tap after every wash. This  
will limit the wear of your appliance's water  
system and also prevent leaks.  
Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and  
during all maintenance operations.  
! Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug  
the appliance.  
Cleaning your appliance  
To access the pre-chamber:  
The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can  
be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm  
soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.  
1. using a screwdriver,  
remove the cover panel  
on the lower front of  
the washing machine  
(see figure);  
Cleaning the detergent dispenser  
Remove the dispenser  
1
by raising it and pulling  
it out (see figure).  
Wash it under running  
water; this operation  
should be repeated  
frequently.  
2. unscrew the lid  
rotating it anti-  
clockwise (see figure):  
a little water may  
trickle out. This is  
perfectly normal;  
2
Caring for your appliance door and  
drum  
Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent  
unpleasant odours from forming.  
3. clean the interior thoroughly;  
4. screw the lid back on;  
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are  
securely in place before you push it onto the  
appliance.  
Checking the water inlet hose  
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If  
you see any cracks, replace it immediately: during  
the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong  
and a cracked hose could easily split open.  
! Never use hoses that have already been used.

Troubleshooting  
Your washing machine could fail to work. Before calling for “Assistance” (see page 14), make sure the problem  
can't easily be solved by consulting the following list.  
G B  
Possible causes/Solution:

approximately 1 minute then switch it on again.  
If the problem persists, contact Assistance.  
The ON-OFF/DOOR LOCKED  
Led flashes rapidly at the same  
time as at least one other LED.  
The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should bear  
the definition "for washing machines" or "hand and machine wash",  
or the like).  
There is too much foam.  
You used too much detergent.

Recycling & Disposal Information  
As part of Hotpoint's continued commitment to helping the environment, Hotpoint reserves the right  
to use quality, recycled components to keep down customer costs and minimise material wastage.  
Please dispose of packaging and old appliances carefully. To minimise the risk of injury to children,  
remove the door, plug and cut the mains cable off flush with the appliance. Dispose of these parts  
separately to ensure that the appliance can no longer be plugged into a mains socket, and the door  
cannot be locked shut.
