To reset the Hoover HBOU 172UK washing machine, unplug the appliance from the power source, wait for about 5 minutes, and then plug it back in. This can help clear minor electronic glitches.
First, check the drain hose for any kinks or blockages. Also, inspect the pump filter for debris and clean it if necessary. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
Remove the detergent drawer by pulling it out until it stops, then press down the release lever. Rinse under warm water to remove any detergent residue and use a soft brush if needed.
Loud noises may be due to an unbalanced load. Try redistributing the clothes evenly in the drum. Also, check if the machine is level on the ground. If the noise persists, it may indicate a mechanical issue.
Regularly clean the detergent drawer, door seal, and filter. Run a maintenance wash with a washing machine cleaner once a month to prevent buildup of detergent and mold.
Run an empty hot wash cycle with a cup of white vinegar or a washing machine cleaner to eliminate odors. Ensure the door and detergent drawer are left open after use to allow air circulation.
Error code E03 indicates a drainage problem. Check the drain hose and pump filter for blockages. If the issue is not resolved, refer to the manual or contact a service technician.
Ensure the washing machine is level by adjusting its feet. Avoid overloading the drum and distribute clothes evenly. Using anti-vibration pads can also help reduce movement.
The Hoover HBOU 172UK offers various cycles such as Cotton, Synthetics, Wool, Delicates, and Quick Wash. Refer to the user manual for a full list and instructions on selecting the appropriate cycle.
Ensure the machine is properly plugged in and the door is closed securely. Check the fuse and power supply. If the machine still does not start, it may require professional repair.
