ParticipantHello,
wondering if anyone can help me. I have been given a Hotpoint wma60 washing machine but don’t have an instruction book for it. I would like to set a programme that I will use most of the time but can’t figure out how to do so. It is a 1400 spin model. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. 😀September 22, 2008 at 9:25 pm #263163dan0k5

Hi. I hope that nobody minds me posting a bit of help here!
I am presuming this is an Ultima machine with a display and buttons with no dials.To select your average Cotton cycle you press the silver “start” button. Now the machine is on. press the top button in the programme line up. this will select a 40c cottons wash with normal dirt level, rinsing and spinspeed.
If you wish to adjust the programme for example reduce the dirt level for a lightly soiled load, press the “how dirty” button. This will change the length of the cycle accordingly.
If the “heavy” option is set. The machine automatically adds a 30*c prewash to the cycle. So you will need to add detergent to the prewash section in the drawer too.There are also three variable buttons to the left of the display. Spin, Rinse & Temperature.
The spin speed button will reduce the spin speed of any programme in 100rpm decrements.
The rinse button will either add rinses or delete rinses. the display will show which option you have selected by indicating “add rinses” or “reduced rinses”
The temperature button will reduce the wash temperature in 5*c decrements to the lowest which is 20*c.
To sum up.
Press Start. Press Cottons once – 40c. Press Start again. Away you go! At the end of the cycle, after unloading, press stop/cancel and this will turn the machine off.
The above should suit most loads fine. However remember to hit that “cottons” button twice for bedlinens, towels and tea towels which need at least 60c washes to remain sufficiently germ free!
Anymore questions regarding your machines programmes etc. I’m sure someone will be able to help you.
