Enter the Menu
Prior to entering the inter@ct menu please note you have 30 seconds per operation to make
your selection. Should you run out of time the display will return to the start screen, and you
simply have to re-enter the inter@ct menu at continue with the programming.
From this stage the menu can be programmed. Hold down the “Express Wash”
and the “Extra Rinse”
buttons together for 5 seconds or until the beep sounds.
The menu options can be changed by pressing the “Extra Rinse” button.
To confirm and enter an option press the “Express Wash” button.
Setting the language (default setting - ENGLISH)
Your washing machine is automatically set to English. If you require another language (it is
this language you will read when utilising the machine) follow this procedure:
Hold down the “Express Wash” and the “Extra Rinse” buttons together for 5 seconds or until
the beep sounds to enter the Menu selection the display will then ask you to choose the
desired language.
Release the “Extra Rinse” and “Express Wash” buttons and scroll through the language
options by pressing the “Extra Rinse” button until you reach the language of your choice.
PROGRAMME END
18.00 14:00
Release the “Extra Rinse” button and press the “Express Wash” button to enter your selection.
When you have entered your chosen language, the display will then ask for the “Time-mode”
to be set.
Setting the time mode (default setting - ABSOLUTE)
There are two ways to select the time mode.
The first is if you wish programme end or delay start to be programmed by starting the actual
time you want the programme to end or begin, e.g., programme to end 18.00. This is called
Absolute Time Mode.
When utilising the programme end function (or start delay), an example can be seen below
when the Absolute Time Mode has been selected in the menu set-up stage.
Therefore, when setting the Programme end time the programme (as shown above) will end
at 18.00.
The second is if you wish programme end time or delay start to be programmed by adding
hours; e.g., programme to end in 1
1
/
2
hours. This is called Relative Time Mode.
When utilising the programme end function (or start delay), an example can be seen below
when the Relative Time Mode has been selected in the menu set-up stage.
Therefore, when setting the Programme end time the programme (as shown above) will end
at 15:30.
Both options are very useful, but we feel that the Absolute Time Mode will be more beneficial
and easier to use since there will be no need to calculate how many hours you will need to
leave before you want the machine to end or start.
On reaching the set time mode you will be asked if you would like to select “Relative” time or -
by scrolling through using the “Extra Rinse” button - “Absolute” time.
Enter the preferred setting by pressing the “Express Wash” button.
When you have entered your preferred time-mode, the display will then ask for the Enable
Final Beeping to be set.

When using your new Hoover Inter@ct for the first time
This machine will operate prior to programming the Inter@ct set up. However, this machine
has Start Delay and Programme End functions and for these functions to work efficiently the
inter@ct set must be programmed. This is a simple operation and special care has been
taken during manufacture to ensure that the user can operate this machine simply and
effectively.
Programming the machine
Inter@ct needs to be programmed so that the correct clock setting, language and personal
requirements are set. When the machine is turned on and the programme dial is moved away
from the “off” position to the programme selections a welcome message will appear.
This message is displayed for a short time while the machine recognises which programme
has been selected. When the machine is ready, the programme details will appear on the
display and from here you may now beging programming the machine.
