Super Wash button

This option can only be utilised for cotton programmes. Hoover has designed a special
wash boost system specially for large loads - by selecting the Super Wash option button,
the volume of water within the selected wash cycle and the length of time of the
programme is increased to improve the wash performance for the bigger load.

Time Saver button

This option can be utilised on cotton and synthetic programmes. By selecting the express
wash option, the wash time may be reduced by up to 50 minutes, depending on the
programme selected.

Pre-Wash button

This option is particularly useful for heavily soiled loads and can be used before selecting
the main wash programme. Detergent for this programme should be added to the first
compartment of the soap drawer labelled “I” (Please refer to Detergent Drawer Section of
manual). We recommend you use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the
detergent pack and fabric conditioner should not be used for this programme.

Extra Rinse button

This option adds more water at the rinsing stage. This can help prevent skin irritation from
detergent residue for people with particularly sensitive skin. Selecting the Extra rinse button
is also recommended when washing heavily soiled fabrics which need a lot of detergent, or
when the wash load contains towelling fabrics that have a greater tendency to retain
detergent.

Spin Speed button

On selecting the wash programme the display will inform you of the maximum spin speed
permitted for that programme. By repeatedly pressing the select spin button the speed will
decrease by increments of 100 rpm. By continuously pressing the spin speed option the
spin may be cancelled if desired. On selecting the required spin speed the display will then

Door button:

A special safety device prevents the door from being operated immediately after the end of the
cycle. “Door locked” indicator light is illuminated when the door is fully closed. Wait for 2 minutes
after the wash cycle has finished before opening the door. The door locked neon will go out and
the door may be opened. As a safety measure check that there is no water evident in the drum.

PROGRAMME CANCELLED

CANCEL

To cancel the programme the Start/Pause buttton must be pressed down for 5 seconds
until the beep sounds. The display will inform you that the display has been paused and
has then been cancelled.
