Dishwasher not starting

Dishes not clean

Check that the spray arms are not blocked and can rotate freely. Ensure filters are clean and that you are using the correct wash programme and detergent. Overloading can also affect cleaning performance.

Dishes not drying properly

Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is full and the door opening drying system is not obstructed. Select the 'Extra Dry' option if available for a particular cycle.

Water not draining

Inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the filter assembly at the bottom of the tub.

Unusual noises

Check for any items that may have fallen to the bottom of the tub and are interfering with the spray arms or pump. Ensure the dishwasher is stable and level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a freestanding dishwasher, meaning it can be placed anywhere with access to a water supply, drainage, and an electrical outlet. Ensure the appliance is level using the adjustable feet. Connect the water inlet hose to your mains cold or hot water supply (max 60°C) and the drain hose to your household drainage system.

Compatibility: The Hotpoint H8FHS61XUK is designed to connect to standard household water and drainage systems. It requires a Type G power plug and a 13A power supply. The inlet hose is 1.55m long and the outlet hose is 1.5m long.

Care: Regular cleaning of the filters is essential for optimal performance and to prevent blockages. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. For internal cleaning, occasional use of a dishwasher cleaner or running an empty cycle with vinegar can help remove limescale and residue. Check the salt and rinse aid indicators and refill as needed.
