Hotpoint AVXXF129 Washer/Dryer User Manual


 
Caring for your appliance door and
drum
Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent
unpleasant odours from forming.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If you
see any cracks, replace it immediately: during the
wash cycles, high water pressure could cause a
cracked hose to split open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
Fuses
Your appliance comes fitted with a plug and a 13 amp
(13A) fuse. If you need to replace the fuse, use only
those rated at 13 amp (13A) and ASTA approved to
BS1362. To change the fuse, insert the fuse and push
the fuse holder down into the locked position. Correct
replacement is identified by colour coding or the
marking on base of the plug.
! DO NOT use the plug unless the fuse holder is in the
locked position and the top cover firmly replaced.
Care and maintenance

GB
Switching off the electricity
Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will
limit the wear of your appliances water system
and also prevent leaks.
Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and
during all maintenance operations.
Cleaning
Cleaning the exterior
Use a damp cloth or silicon polish to clean the exterior
surfaces of the appliance.
Cleaning the door bowl
Clean the internal surface of the door bowl regularly
with a soft cloth. A build up of soap powder and water
hardness residue may result in water leaking from the
door.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer and compartments
It is advisable to clean the dispenser drawer regularly.
! Do not try to clean any part of the dispenser drawer
while the machine is running.

2. Press the drawer release
button to remoce the dispenser
drawer (see figure).
3. Clean and dry the dispenser
drawer, syphons, grate and
fabric conditioner exit channel
(A). Also regularly clean the out-
let pipe area (B).
4. Relocate the dispenser drawer and push it firmly
back into place.
! Do not clean any part of the machine with abrasive
cleaners, scouring agents, acids, any bleach or metal
polish as they may cause damage.
