Running a wash cycle
1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the On/Off
button ; the text HOTPOINT will appear on the display
and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in
a green colour.
2. LOAD THE LAUNDRY. Open the porthole door.
Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed
the maximum load value indicated in the table of
programmes on the following page.
3.
MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT.
Open the
detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into
the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents
and laundry”.
4.
CLOSE THE DOOR.
5.
SELECT THE WASH CYCLE.
Use the WASH CYCLE
SELECTOR knob to select the desired wash cycle; the
name of the wash cycle will appear on the display. A
temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle;
these may be adjusted. The duration of the cycle will
appear on the display.
6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant
buttons:
Modifying the temperature and/or spin speed.
The machine automatically selects the maximum
temperature and spin speed set for the selected wash
cycle; these values cannot therefore be increased.
The temperature can be decreased by pressing the
button, until the cold wash (the display will visualise the
“ -- ” symbol) setting is reached. The spin speed may be
progressively reduced by pressing the button, until
it is completely excluded (the display will visualise the
“ -- ” symbol). If these buttons are pressed again, the
maximum values are restored.
!
Exception: if the 2 programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 40°C.
!
Exception: if the 3 programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.
!
Exception: if the 4 programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 60°C..
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected programme,
press the corresponding button repeatedly until the
required delay period has been reached. To remove the
delayed start function press the button until the text
“
-- h
” appears on the display.
Set the rinse type.
Option makes it possible to select the desired
rinse type for sensitive skin. Press the button once for
the “ Extra +1 ” level, which makes it possible to select
an additional rinse after the standard cycle rinse and
remove all traces of detergent. Press the button again
for the “ Extra +2 ” level, which makes it possible to
select two additional rinses to the standard cycle rinses;
it is recommended for very sensitive skin. When the
button is pressed for the third time, the “ Extra +3 ” level
is set, thus allowing the selection of 3 rinses in addition
to the standard cycle’s rinses. The option - started with
cycles at a temperature of 40°C - makes it possible to
remove major allergens such as pollen, cat and dog
hair. With cycles at a temperature higher than 40° a very
good level of antiallergic protection is achieved. Press
the button again to go back to the “ Normal rinse ” rinse
type. If the current adjustment can be neither set nor
changed, the display will show “ No Selection ” or “ No
Change ”.
Modifying the cycle settings.
• Press the button to enable the function; the relevant
indicator light on the display will light up.
• Press the button again to disable the function; the
relevant indicator light on the display will switch off.
!
If the selected function is incompatible with the set
programme, the relevant indicator light will appear dimly
lit; in addition, the incompatibility will be signalled by a
buzzer (3 beeps) and the wording “ No Selection ” will
appear on the display.
! If the selected function is incompatible with another
previously set function, the wording “ No Selection ”
will appear on the display and the function will not be
enabled.
! The functions may affect the recommended load value
and/or the duration of the cycle.
7. START THE PROGRAMME. Press the START/
PAUSE button. The corresponding indicator light will
become green, remaining lit in a fixed manner, and the
door will be locked (the DOOR LOCKED symbol will
be on). During the wash cycle, the name of the phase in
progress will appear on the display. To change a wash
cycle while it is in progress, pause the washing machine
using the START/PAUSE button (the START/PAUSE
indicator light will flash slowly in an orange colour);
then select the desired cycle and press the START/
PAUSE button again. To open the door while a cycle
is in progress, press the START/PAUSE button; if the
DOOR LOCKED symbol is switched off the door
may be opened. Press the START/PAUSE button again
to restart the wash cycle from the point at which it was
interrupted.
8. THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE. This will be
indicated by the text “CYCLE END” on the display;
when the DOOR LOCKED symbol switches off
the door may be opened. Open the door, unload the
laundry and switch off the machine.
! If you wish to cancel a cycle which has already begun,
press and hold the button. The cycle will be stopped
and the machine will switch off.
Direct Injection
The washing machine is equipped with the innovative
technology «Direct Injection» which pre-mixes water and
detergent, thus immediately activating the detergent’s
cleaning principles. This active emulsion is directly
introduced into the drum of the washing machine and
penetrates the fibres with more efficacy in cleaning
even heavily soiled garments at low temperatures, fully
preserving colours and fabrics.
The mode «Power» ensures the best cleaning performance
and the mode «EcoEnergy» allows more energy saving.
