Hotpoint guarantee

After Sales Service

“Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back”

We give you a unique ‘satisfaction guaranteed’ promise - valid

for 90 days - after you have purchased your Hotpoint

appliance. If there is a technical problem simply call Hotpoint

Repair service or visit our web-site at

www.theservicecentre.co.uk and where necessary, we will

arrange for an engineer to call. If the technical problem is not

resolved under this guarantee, we will replace your machine

or, if you prefer, give you your money back.

All Hotpoint appliances carry a fully inclusive 12 month parts
and labour guarantee as well as free replacement parts for the
first 5 years (except microwaves, selected integrated
appliances and cooker hoods, which have a one year
guarantee) provided that they are fitted by a Hotpoint 
engineer.

Recycling & Disposal

Information

As part of Hotpoint’s continued commitment to helping the environ-
ment, 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 risk of injury to children, remove the door, plug and cut
mains cable off flush with the appliance. Dispose of these parts sepa-
rately to ensure that the appliance can no longer be plugged into a
mains socket, and the door cannot be locked shut.

“No company is better positioned to offer an after sales service on
a Hotpoint appliance than us - the manufacturer”.

As part of our commitment to you, all Hotpoint appliances have the

added benefit of a fully inclusive parts and labour guarantee for the first

12 months. In addition to this you also have the advantage of free

engineer. When the 12 months parts and labour guarantee expires we
