For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has 3 different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and length of cycle (see table of washing cycle programmes).

1 Resistants Fabrics

The programmes have been designed for a maximum wash and the rinses, with spin intervals, ensure perfect rinsing. The final spin gives more efficient removal of water.

2 Mixed and Synthetic Fabrics

The main wash and the rinse gives best results thanks to the rotation rhythms of the drum and to the water levels. A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.

3. Delicate fabrics, wool & hand washing

This group of programmes have been specially designed to wash the most delicate fabrics

Use the Delicate programme for delicate fabrics

Use the Woollens programme only for machine washable wool Use the HandWash programme for any machine washable handwash garments

Please read these notes

When washing heavily soiled laundry it is recommended the load is reduced to 3 kg maximum.

* Programmes according to CENELEC EN 60456.

The variable temperature selector allows a reduction in the wash temperature. For example, an intense cottons cycle can be washed in cold water simply by moving the dial to the tap symbol.

The spin speed may also be reduced, to match any guidelines suggested on the fabric label, or for very delicate fabrics cancel the spin completely this option is available with a spin speed selector.

■ "RAPID 29" Programme

The "RAPID 29" programme allows a complete washing cycle to be carried out in approximately 30 minutes, with up to a maximum load of 2 kg and a the temperature of up to 50°C.

The washing temperature can be reduced by using the control knob I.

When selecting the "RAPID 29" programme, please note that we recommend you use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.

The detergent must be placed in the pre-wash compartment (marked I) in the detergent dispenser.

For mixed, synthetics and very delicate fabrics that are heavily soiled a prewash cycle may be selected using the "RAPID 29" programme (the detergent must be placed in the compartment marked I) before selecting the main wash programme.

Get the best results from your new Hoover machine

To ensure you get the best results from your new Hoover machine it is important to use the right detergent in your everyday wash. There are many detergents available in the market and making a choice from the wide range available can often be confusing.

At Hoover we regularly test many different types of detergent to assess which give the best wash results in our machines. We found only one brand always lives up to our exacting standards and provides outstanding cleaning across a broad range of dirt and stains, as well as providing high levels of fabric care. That's why Hoover gave Arlet their official seal of approval.

CAPÍTULO 11

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance.

MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE

To prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent we recommend that you put a full load in your washing machine, not exceed the maximum loads shown below:

Cotton and linen 6 kg Mixed 2 kg Very delicate 1.5 kg Wool 1 kg

Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load Instead of 2 half loads.

DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?

For heavily soiled laundry only! SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?

Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme. Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

ES

LAVADO

CAPACIDAD VARIABLE

This washing machine automatically adapts the level of the water to the type and quantity of washing. In this way it is also possible to obtain a "personalized" wash from an energy saving point of view. This system gives a decrease in energy consumption and a sensible reduction in washing times.

The maximum load for heavy fabrics is 6 kg, while, in the case of delicate fabrics, it is advisable not to exceed 2 kg (1 kg in the case of machine washable articles in "Machine Washable Wools") so as to avoid the formation of creases which may be difficult to iron. A net bag should be used for particularly delicate fabrics. Let us suppose that the washing consists of HEAVILY SOILED COTTON (tough stains should be removed with suitable stain removal).

It is advisable not to wash a load made up entirely of articles in towelling fabric which absorb a lot of water and become too heavy.

EXAMPLE:

The advice of Hoover is set out in the washing programme table:

● Ensure that article labels carry the indication 60°C.

● Open the door by pressing button (B).

● Load the drum with a maximum of 6 kg of dry washing.

- Close the door

ES ES

Select programme 2: Choose the programme by rotating the knob (L) in a CLOCKWISE DIRECTION and make the number of the programme coincide with the sign.

- Move the temperature knob (1) to 60°C.

● Open the detergent drawer (A).

● Put 120 g in the second III wash compartment.

● Put 50 ml of the desired additive in the additives compartment

- Close the detergent drawer (A).

● Ensure that the water inlet tap is turned on.

● And that the discharge tube is in place.

- Press the "ON" button (C). The washing machine will carry out the set programme.

● At the end of the programme, press the On/Off button (C).

- Open the door and remove the washed articles.

FOR ALL TYPES OF WASH CONSULT THE PROGRAMME TABLE AND FOLLOW THE OPERATIONS IN THE ORDER INDICATED.

LIMPIEZA Y MANTENIMIENTO ORDINARIO

Do not use abrasives, spirits and/or diluents on the exterior of the appliance. It is sufficient to use a damp cloth.

The washing machine requires very little maintenance:

● Cleaning of drawer compartments.
- Filter cleaning
● Removals or long periods when the machine is left standing.

CLEANING OF DRAWER COMPARTMENTS

Although not strictly necessary, it is advisable to clean the detergent, bleach and additives compartments occasionally.

Remove the compartments by pulling gently.

Clean with water.

Put the compartments back into place

ES

LIMPIEZA FILTRO

The washing machine is equipped with a special filter to retain large foreign matter which could clog up the drain, such as coins, buttons, etc. These can, therefore, easily be recovered. The procedures for cleaning the filter are as follows:

● The filter should be cleaned once a month.

● Ease off the base as shown in fig.
● Use the base as a tray to collect leftover water in filter.
● Tum the filter anticlockwise till it stops in vertical position.
- Remove and clean.
● After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end of the filter clockwise. Then follow all procedures described above in reverse order.

REMOVALS OR LONG PERIODS WHEN THE MACHINE IS LEFT STANDING

For eventual removals or when the machine is left standing for long periods in unheated rooms, the drain hose should be emptied of all remaining water.

The appliance must be switched off and unplugged. A bowl is needed. Detach the drainage hose from the clamp and lower it over the bowl until all the water is removed.

Repeat the same operation with the water inlet hose.

Please note:
It is normal for the programme selector dial to move only from one stage of washing programme to another and not show any movement in-between - so at certain periods, the dial will stay still. An electronic device is controlling the exact movement of the timer.

If the fault should persist, contact a Hoover Technical Assistance Centre. For prompt servicing, give the model of the washing machine, to be found on the label placed on the cabinet inside of the porthole or on the

The use of environment friendly detersives without phosphates may produce the following effects:
- The discharge rinse water may result cloudier due to the presence of zeolites in suspension. This does not compromise the efficiency of the rinses.
- The presence of white powder (zeolites) on the washing at the end of the washing cycle. This does not remain incorporated in the fabric and does not alter the colour.
- The presence of foam in the last rinse water which is not necessarily a sign of inadequate rinsing.
- The non-ionic surface-active agents present in the composition of washing machine detersives are often difficult to remove from the washing itself and, even in small quantities, may produce visible signs of the formation of foam.
- C carrying out further rinses, in cases such as this, is not useful.
2 If your washing machine fails to function, carry out the above-mentioned checks before calling the Hoover Technical Assistance Service.
