Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose 
of detergent: adding too much detergent will not neces-
sarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact a 
build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute 
to environmental pollution.

!

 

Do not use hand washing detergents because these 

create too much foam.

Open the detergent di-
spenser drawer and pour 
in the detergent or wa-
shing additive, as follows.

!

 

Do not pour detergent into the middle compartment 

(

*

). Detergent should only be poured into the compartment 1.

compartment 1: Detergent for the wash cycle (powder 
or liquid)

For best results liquid detergent should be poured in 
the dispenser immediately before the start of the pro-
gramme.

compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.

Preparing the laundry

• 

Divide the laundry according to:

  - the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
  - the colours: separate coloured garments from whi-

tes.

• 

Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.

• 

Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the 

weight of the laundry when dry:

  Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg
  Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 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 900-1200 g
  1 towel 150-250 g

Garments requiring special care

Baby cycle:

 

this wash cycle 

can be used to remove the 

soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring that all 
detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent 
the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. 
The cycle has been designed to reduce the amount 
of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and 
optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives 
added to the detergent.
At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly 
rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; 
to end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button.

Shirts:

 

use special wash cycle 

7

 to wash shirts in various 

fabrics and colours. 
It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments 
and minimises the formation of creases.

Lingerie cycle:

 

for undergarments of any colour, in any 

fabric. Use special wash cycle 

8

.

Wool:

 

Hotpoint is the only washing machine manufac-

turer to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark 
Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by the Woolmark 
Company, which means that all woollen garments may be 
washed in the washing machine, even those which state 
“hand wash only” 

 on the label. Wash cycle 

9

 therefo-

re offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen 
garments in the washing machine (max. load 1,5 kg) and 
guarantees optimal performance. 

Silk: 

use special wash cycle 

10

 to wash all silk garments. 

We recommend the use of special detergent which has 
been designed to wash delicate clothes.

Curtains:

 

fold curtains and place them in a pillow case 

or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 

10

.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations  and 
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum ro-
tates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than 
the  washing  rotation  speed.  If,  after  several  attempts, 
the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a 
reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, 
the washing machine performs the distribution process 
instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribu-
tion and balance, we recommend small and large garments 
are mixed in the load.
