Frequently Asked Questions - AQ107D 49D IT HOTPOINT

How do I clean the filter on my Hotpoint AQ107D 49D IT washing machine?

To clean the filter, locate it at the bottom right corner of the machine. Open the flap, pull out the hose to drain any residual water, then unscrew the filter (turn counterclockwise). Clean the filter under running water and remove any lint or objects. Refit and screw back clockwise, ensuring it is tight. Close the flap.

What should I do if the washing machine displays error code F01?

Error F01 indicates a motor or tacho generator problem. First, turn the machine off and unplug it for 5 minutes. If the error persists, check the wiring between the motor and control board. If you are not experienced, contact a qualified technician.

Can I use liquid detergent in my Hotpoint washing machine?

Yes, you can use liquid detergent. However, always follow the dosage instructions on the detergent packaging. For better results, especially with powder detergent, use the main wash compartment (II). For liquid, use a dosing ball or pour directly into the drum.

How do I enable the child lock on the AQ107D 49D IT?

To activate the child lock, press and hold the 'Start/Pause' button for 3 seconds until the key symbol appears on the display. To deactivate, press and hold again for 3 seconds.

What is the maximum load capacity for a cotton cycle?

For the cotton cycle, the maximum load is 7 kg. Overloading may cause poor washing results and damage the machine.

How do I clean the drum of my washing machine?

Run a 'Drum Clean' cycle (if available) with an empty drum, using a washing machine cleaner or 50 ml of bleach. Alternatively, run a 90°C cotton cycle with no laundry. After the cycle, leave the door open to dry.

Why does my washing machine take too long?

The machine automatically adjusts the cycle time based on load size and water absorption. Additionally, if you select extra rinse or soak options, the time increases. The time displayed is an estimate and may change.

How do I install the washing machine?

Remove all packaging, including the transit bolts at the back (keep them for safe moving). Level the machine by adjusting the front feet. Connect the water inlet hose to a cold water supply (3/4 inch thread). Insert the drain hose into a standpipe or sink. Ensure the plug is accessible.

The machine does not start. What should I check?

First, ensure the door is closed properly and the start button is pressed. Check if the water supply is turned on and the filter is not blocked. Also, verify that the machine is not in a delay start mode. If none of these help, check the fuse or circuit breaker.

How often should I clean the detergent drawer?

Clean the detergent drawer every 2-3 months. Remove the drawer by pressing the release catch. Wash it under warm water with a brush, ensuring all compartments are clear. Dry and reinsert.

Unpacking and levelling

Unpacking

1. Once you have removed all the packaging from the washing machine, make sure it has not been damaged during transportation. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.

Pure technical diagram of a mechanical or electrical component with no visible text, numbers, or symbols.

1. Remove the 4 protective screws (used during transportation) and the corresponding spacer, located on the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

2. Close off the holes using the plastic plugs supplied in the pack.

3. Keep all the parts in a safe place; they will be needed again if the washing machine is moved to another location, to prevent the inside of the appliance being damaged.

! Packaging materials should not be used as toys for children.

Levelling

1. Place the washing machine on a flat sturdy floor, without resting it up against walls or cabinets.

Line drawing of a car door corner with a circular button and directional arrow (no text or symbols)

1. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the machine may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not exceed 2 degrees).

! If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to cause vibrations and noise while it is operating, particularly during the spin cycle.

! If it is placed on carpet or a rug, adjust the feet in such a way as to allow a sufficient ventilation space underneath the washing machine.

Connecting the electricity and water supplies

Connecting the water inlet hose

! Before connecting the inlet hose to the water supply, run the water until it is perfectly clear.

1. Connect the inlet hose to the machine by screwing it onto the cold water inlet of the appliance, which is situated on the top right-hand side of the rear part of the appliance (see figure).

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with two views: top shows a flanged knob and ring, bottom shows a flanged screw base (no text or symbols)

1. Connect the inlet hose by screwing it to a cold water tap using a 3/4 gas threaded connection (see figure).

2. Make sure that the hose is not folded over or bent.

! The water pressure at the tap must fall within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see next page).

! If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialised shop or an authorised technician.

! Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; use the products supplied with the machine.

Connecting the drain hose

Connect the drain hose to drain duct piping or a wall drain located between 65 and 100 cm above the floor, making sure it is not bent at all.

Diagram of a pipe connection with a hanging device (no text or symbols)

Alternatively, rest the drain hose on the side of a washbasin or bathtub, fastening the duct supplied to the tap (see figure). The free end of the hose should not be underwater.

! We advise against the use of hose extensions; if it is absolutely necessary, the extension must have the same diameter as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the electricity socket, make sure that:

• the socket is earthed and complies with all applicable laws;
• the socket is able to withstand the maximum power load of the appliance as indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);
• the power supply voltage falls within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);
• the socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, have the socket or the plug replaced.

! The machine must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain, storms and other weather conditions.

! The mains socket must remain within easy reach after the washing machine has been installed.

! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

Care and maintenance

GB

Cutting off the water and electricity supplies

• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in the machine and help to prevent leaks.
• Unplug the appliance when cleaning it and during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the machine

The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

To remove the drawer, press lever (1) and pull the drawer outwards (2) (see figure). Wash it under running water; this procedure should be repeated frequently.

Caring for your appliance drum

• Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the protective pre-chamber at the base of the pump.

! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. take off the cover panel on the front of the machine by first pressing it in the centre and then pushing downwards on both sides until you can remove it (see figures);

Simple line drawing of a ceiling-mounted device with a circular component and directional arrows (no text or symbols)

1. position a container so that it will collect the water which flows out (approximately 1.5 l) (see figure);

2. unscrew the lid by rotating it in an anti-clockwise direction (see figure);

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the lid back on;
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely in place before you push it onto the appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately: during the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

! The machine was designed and constructed in accordance with international safety regulations. The following information is provided for safety reasons and must therefore be read carefully.

General safety

• This appliance was designed for domestic use only.
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
- Do not touch the machine when barefoot or with wet or damp hands or feet.
- Do not pull on the power supply cable when unplugging the appliance from the electricity socket. Hold the plug and pull.
- Do not touch the drained water as it may reach extremely high temperatures.
- Never force the porthole door. This could damage the safety lock mechanism designed to prevent accidental opening.
- If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances access the internal mechanisms in an attempt to repair it yourself.
- Always keep children well away from the appliance while it is operating.
- If it must be moved, proceed with the help of two or three people and handle it with the utmost care. Never try to do this alone, because the appliance is very heavy.
- Before loading laundry into the washing machine, make sure the drum is empty.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates 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 distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

Disposal

• Disposing of the packaging materials: observe local regulations so that the packaging may be re-used.
• The European Directive 2012/19/EU relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the materials

inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and to public health.

The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding separated waste collection.

For more information relating to the correct disposal of household appliances, owners should contact their local authorities or appliance dealer.

Opening the porthole door manually

In the event that it is not possible to open the porthole door due to a powercut, and if you wish to remove the laundry, proceed as follows:

* If you select programme and exclude the spin cycle, the machine will drain only.
** The duration of the wash cycle can be checked on the display.

The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary according to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.

Note: 10 minutes after the START, the machine will recalculate the time remaining until the end of the wash cycle on the basis of the load inside it; this value will then be shown on the display.

1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 60°C.

This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be washed at 60°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.

2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.

This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be washed at 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.

For all Test Institutes:

2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.

3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.

Wash options

- If the selected option is not compatible with the selected wash cycle, this incompatibility will be signalled by the flashing of the indicator light and a sound alert (3 beeps); the option will not be activated.

- If the selected option is not compatible with another option that has been selected previously, the indicator light corresponding to the first option selected will flash and only the second option will be activated; the indicator light corresponding to the button will remain lit in a constant manner.

Super Wash

This option offers a high-performance wash due to the greater quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle, and due to the increased wash cycle duration, is particularly useful for the removal of stubborn stains. It can be used with or without bleach. If you desire bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (3) into compartment 1. When

pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the "max" level

marked on the central pivot (see figure). To bleach laundry without carrying out a full wash cycle, pour the bleach into the extra compartment 3, select the "Rinse" cycle and activate the "Super Wash" option.

Extra rinse

By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal residual detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for skin which is sensitive to detergents. We recommend this option is used with a full load of washing, or when a large amount of detergent is required.

Easy Iron

By selecting this option, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.

Detergents and laundry

Detergent

The type and quantity of detergent required depend on the type of fabric you are washing (cotton, wool, silk, etc.), as well as its colour, the washing temperature, the level of soiling and the hardness of the water in the area. Measuring out the detergent carefully will avoid wastage and help to protect the environment: although they are biodegradable, detergents still contain ingredients which alter the balance of nature. We recommend the following:

• use powder detergents for white cotton garments and pre-washing.
• use liquid detergents for delicate cotton garments and for all low-temperature wash cycles.
• use gentle liquid detergents for wool and silk garments. The detergent should be poured into the relevant compartment - or the dispenser placed directly inside the drum - before the wash cycle begins. In the latter case, it will not be possible to select the Cottons with pre-wash cycle.
  ! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C
  ! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
  ! Do not use hand washing detergents because these create too much foam.

Preparing the laundry

• Shake out the garments before loading them into the machin
- Divide the laundry according fabric type (symbol on the washing instruction label) and colour, making sure you separate the coloured garments from the white ones;
• Empty all pockets and check the buttons;
- Do not exceed the values listed in the "Table of wash cycles", which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillowcase 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
1 pair of jeans 400-500 g
1 shirt 150-200 g

Washing recommendations

Multi Colour: use the 📋 cycle to wash medium-soiled multi-coloured garments or garments of different colours. Cycle designed to ensure colour care while achieving a 40° performance at just 20°. We recommend using detergents that are suitable for coloured washes and active already at low temperatures.

! We always recommend a separate wash for running garments and the first time you wash a new coloured item.

Coloureds Intensive: use the cycle on light coloured garments to remove tough stains without damaging the integrity and brightness of the colours. The cycle is studied to guarantee a 60° performance at only 40°. We recommend the use of detergents suitable to wash coloured clothes.

Darks: use cycle 📋 to wash dark-coloured garments. This programme is designed to maintain dark colours over time. We recommend using a liquid detergent for the best results when washing dark-coloured garments.

Shirts: use the special ash cycle to wash shirts in different fabrics and colours to guarantee they receive the best possible care.

Duvets: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of which should not exceed 3,5 kg), cushions or clothes padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use the special wash cycle. We recommend that duvets are placed in the drum with their edges folded inwards (see figure) and that no more than 34 of the total volume of the drum is used. To achieve the best results, we recommend that a liquid detergent is used and placed inside the detergent dispenser drawer.
