Special features
●
Fast Wash:
The Fast Wash programmes are designed for lightly soiled loads delivering quick results for smaller loads,
using less energy. For loads with stains or increased soil levels which require deeper cleaning, use the standard
or intensive wash cycles.
●
Cool Wash: 30˚C
A low temperature wash which delivers cleaning results comparable to the intensive 40˚C cotton programme
but at a lower temperature for more colour sensitive garments and using less energy.
●
Handwash:
A gentle action programme for delicate items and items labelled as hand wash only.
Not for Wool or Silk garments (use the special programmes for those materials).
●
Handwash Wool Approved:
The wool wash cycle on Hotpoint machines has been tested and approved by the Woolmark company for
washing garments labelled as ‘hand wash’, provided that the ‘garments’ are washed in accordance to the
instructions issued by the manufacturer of this machine.
This cycle is selected by pressing the wool programme selector button and selecting the ‘Wash Enhance’
option modifier (see Programme Table and Option Modifiers).
We recommend using a wool wash liquid when using Wool programmes.
●
Super Silent Wash:
Using the latest brush-less electric motors and damper technology the noise levels during the washing phase
are significantly lower than a conventional washing machine.
●
LCD Display
Shows all information relating to your programme selections. Also indicating the stage of a programme in
progress.
If time delay is selected this shows the time remaining until the start of the wash programme in hours – counting
down each hour.
It also displays which option modifiers have been selected, the door lock status and the time to end of the
wash programme in hours and minutes, counting down each minute. Please note time can go up as well as
down depending on load absorbency, size and water temperature.
