Water Connection

Connecting the water inlet hose supplied.

Remember that this is a cold-fill machine and the

water inlet hose MUST be fitted to the rear of the

machine and the cold water supply. Please use the new

hose supplied (located inside the drum). Old hoses

may cause leasks due to worn out washers or may

split due to water pressure .

- Before making the connections to the cold water

supply, allow the water to run freely from the cold

water supply tap until it is completely clear.

- Connect the straight end to the hose connector to

the cold water supply tap

until tight.

- Coonnect the angled end

of the hose to the

washing machines cold

water inlet point, situated

at the top right hand side

on the rear of the

appliance (see figure).

Turn the cold water supply tap on and check for leaks,

tighten if necessary.

Levelling

Your machine will be noisy if the two front feet are not

adjusted so that the machine stands firm and level.

! The machine should be levelled from side to side

and from front to back.

1. Move your machine into its final location, talking

care not to trap or kink the hoses.

2. Turn one or both front feet

counter-clockwise by hand until

the feet cannot be turned any more.

When adjusting the feet, use a

spirit level to check the

machine stands level, from side to

side and from front to back.

The spring on each foot will stop

them coming loose.

! If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet, adjust the feet

in such a way as to allow enough room for ventilation

beneath the machine.

Did you know?...

 ...the most common cause of problems with water connection is that the customer has not turned the

supply tap on.

 ...it is very important to ensure that your hoses or cables are not kinked or squashed when the machine is

pushed back into its location, as this can lead to your machine failing to fill or empty the water.

 ...the majority of problems with noisy machines are due to the feet not being adjusted correctly to

level the machine.

We recofitting a 3/4 sealing cap to

the hot water supply tap (if present),

to ensure there are no leaks. Sealing

caps can be purchased from

Hotpoint Service on 08709 077 077

or all good DIY and Plumbing outlets.

Benefits of cold fill

 Modern detergents are designed to give the best

cleaning results at low temperatures. Biological

detergents contain enzymes which are active between

30 °C and 53 °C, giving greater results at lower

temperatures.

 Cold water relaxes fabrics, whilst hot water can

seal in stains.

 Improved stain removal with cold water.

 The most commonly used programme at present is

40 °C, which will take on cold water even if hot and

cold were available.

 You can heat the water required to finish the wash

cycle, which makes it more economical than taking

water heated in a tank by an immersion heater or

gas boiler.

Hints and tips

 Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.

 The water pressure at the supply tap must be within

the values indicated in the Technical Details table

(see page 17 ).

 If the water inlet hose is not long enough, you can

purchase an extended hose from Hotpoint Service on

08709 077 077.

 Always use a new inlet hose.

 Check the water inlet hose at least once a year,

replace if cracked as worn hoses could split under

water pressure.

 Turn on the water supply and check that the

connections do not leak. If there is a leak, turn

off the water supply, disconnect the hoses and

check that the sealing washers are in place.

Refit the hoses and turn on the water supply.
