To start a wash and dry cycle, first load your laundry into the drum. Select the desired program using the control dial. Press the "Dry" button to activate the drying cycle and adjust the drying level if necessary. Finally, press the "Start/Pause" button to begin the cycle.
If your washer dryer is not draining, check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged. Clear any blockages and ensure the hose is properly positioned. Also, inspect the pump filter for debris and clean it if necessary. Restart the machine to see if the problem is resolved.
To clean the detergent drawer, carefully remove it from the machine. Rinse it thoroughly under warm water to remove any detergent residue. Use a soft brush to clean any stubborn deposits, then dry the drawer and replace it in the machine.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the detergent drawer, checking and cleaning the pump filter, inspecting hoses for leaks or damage, and ensuring the drum is free of foreign objects. Running a maintenance wash with a drum cleaner can also help keep the machine in optimal condition.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced load or improper leveling of the machine. Ensure the laundry is evenly distributed in the drum. Check that the appliance is level by adjusting the feet as necessary. Avoid overloading the machine, which can also cause vibration.
A persistent odor may be due to mold or residue buildup. Run a hot wash cycle with a cup of white vinegar or a washing machine cleaner. Clean the detergent drawer and door seal thoroughly. Ensure the machine is aired out after each use by leaving the door open.
Ensure the machine is plugged in and the power socket is working. Check that the door is fully closed and latched, as the machine won't start if the door is not secure. Make sure the program has been selected and the "Start/Pause" button has been pressed.
To minimize wrinkles, promptly remove clothes from the drum once the cycle is finished. Shake out garments and fold or hang them immediately. Using a dryer sheet or fabric softener during the cycle can also help reduce wrinkles.
Use the "Delicates" program for washing delicate fabrics. Place items in a mesh laundry bag to offer extra protection. Use a gentle detergent and avoid high spin speeds to prevent fabric damage.
Refer to the user manual for specific error code meanings. Common solutions include checking water supply, ensuring the door is closed, and clearing any blockages in the drainage system. If the error persists, contact Hotpoint customer support for assistance.
