My Hotpoint integrated dishwasher will not fill

If your Hotpoint integrated dishwasher will not fill then please ensure that your water taps at the back of the Hotpoint integrated dishwasher are fully turned on and that the pipes are not kinked or squashed.

In order for a Hotpoint integrated dishwasher to fill it must first drain. See “my Hotpoint integrated dishwasher will not empty” below for advice on drainage plumbing.

If you need further assistance please call Hotpoint customer service on 0818 313 413


My Hotpoint integrated dishwasher will not empty

We recommend that you ensure that the waste hose has been correctly installed. If your Hotpoint integrated dishwasher empties into an under sink waste system please ensure that the blanked end of the waste spigot has been removed. Ensure the filter in the base of the dishwasher is clean and free from any blockages.

Check that the waste hose has not become trapped or kinked as this could also result in a failure to empty the waste water out of your Hotpoint integrated dishwasher.

If you need further assistance please call Hotpoint customer service on 0818 313 413


There is a smell coming from my Hotpoint integrated dishwasher

We recommend running your empty dishwasher on a hot setting using our Limescale which will hygienically clean your appliance and prevent the smell reoccurring. Please do this once a month to maintain.

For more information on the Limescale and Detergent Remover – click Limescale and Detergent Remover or call our Hotpoint spare parts department on 0818 313 413


My cutlery is becoming brown/rusty

Cast iron pots and pans can start to rust where they’re cleaned in a dishwasher.

This can result in the rust spreading onto other items such as your cutlery or the tub of your dishwasher. We recommend you avoid washing cast iron pots and pans in your dishwasher.

If you need further assistance please call Hotpoint customer service on 0818 313 413


Cloudy/White marks are being left on my dishes/glassware

If you are finding at the end of a wash cycle that your dishes and glasses are appearing cloudy then this could be a possible calcium deposit. We also recommend use of our Dishwasher Salt, which improves washing performance and protects your dishwasher. Unique table form is easier to dose than ordinary dishwasher powder.

There is no electrical power to my Hotpoint integrated dishwasher

Check that the socket your Hotpoint integrated dishwasher is connected to is live by plugging in and testing another piece of equipment such as a radio.

Your dishwasher comes fitted with a 13 amp plug and lead, please ensure that the correct rating of fuse is being used. If you are using an extension lead you might want to try testing your machine with a different one.

Always ensure that the on/off or start switch is in the correct position.

For further advice we recommend checking your user manual – you can also download your user manual manuals.
