Thank-you for choosing a Hoover washing
machine. We are proud to always offer
new, innovative and technologically
advanced products, with a complete range
of home appliances to ensure true
assistance in your daily routine.

We suggest you register your product at
www.registerhoover.com to gain faster
access to supplementary services solely
reserved to our most loyal customers.

Carefully read this manual for correct and
safe appliance use and for helpful tips on
efficient maintenance.

Only use the washing machine
after carefully reading these instructions.
We recommend you always keep this
manual on hand and in good conditions for
any future owners.

Please check that the appliance is
delivered with this instruction manual,
warranty certificate, service centre address
and energy efficiency label. Also check that
plugs, curve for drain hose and liquid
detergent or bleach tray (only on some
models) are included. We recommend you
keep all these components.

Each product is identified by a unique 16­character code, also called the “serial
number”, printed on the sticker affixed to
the appliance (porthole area) or in the
document envelope found inside the
product. This code is a sort of specific
product ID card that you will need to
register it and should you need to contact
the Hoover Customer Service Centre.

This appliance is marked according to
the European directive 2012/19/EU
on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE).

WEEE contains both polluting substances (which
can cause negative consequences for the
environment) and basic components (which can
be re-used). It is important to have WEEE
subjected to specific treatments, in order to
remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can
play an important role in ensuring that WEEE
does not become an environmental issue; it is
essential to follow some basic rules:

! WEEE should not be treated as household

waste;

! WEEE should be handed over to the relevant

collection points managed by the municipality or
by registered companies. In many countries, for
large WEEE, home collection could be present.

In many countries, when you buy a new
appliance, the old one may be returned to the
retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a
one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of
equivalent type and has the same functions as
the supplied equipment.
