Good morning, I recently purchased a Hotpoint HFO 3C32 dishwasher. The surprise was yesterday when I mounted it and I tried to see if it works. I connected everything to be connected, I added salt and water according to the manual. I tried to start a self cleaning program, select the program, start … pull the water, do something else there then drain the water and in 5 minutes (approximately) the message End appears on the display. It has absolutely no error code, nothing else… no lights on, nothing, neither when I select the program nor when that End appears. I want to mention that I tried all the programs and it does everything. Start, pull the water … then take it out and that End appears. Did I do something wrong? Did anything else need to be done before first use? Do I have to go to something in the settings? I have no idea … if anyone knows what they can have.
Hi, According to the user manual the self clean program should take 50 minutes not 5 minutes You should not have to do anything different than what you do when using the other programs when using the self clean program, as the cleaning action, is basically just a program that uses high temperature water to clean the machine with no dishes inside. If all the other programs work OK i.e. water heats OK, dishes are cleaned and dry at the end of the program and the programs take the required amount of time as shown in the manual, then there may be a problem with just that one program. Since it is a recent purchase (is it less than 12 months?), the dishwasher should still be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty (guarantee). Check the warranty statement that should have come with the dishwasher, as to what you have to do to get it repaired under the warranty.
