Hotpoint-Ariston FOURS user manual

There could be several reasons why your Ariston oven is not heating up:
1. Heating Elements Failure: The most common reason you may experience an oven that won't heat up is due to a failure of the heating elements. The elements may get burnt or come to the end of their lifespan and stop functioning entirely.
2. Fuse: If the oven's fuse has blown out, the oven won't heat up. You may have to replace or reset the fuse.
3. Thermostat is Broken: If the oven's thermostat is broken, it might not be able to send signals to the heating elements to heat up the oven.
4. Broken Temperature Sensor: If the temperature sensor is broken or if it is not giving accurate readings, it might prevent your oven from heating up.
5. Oven Timer: In some cases, a malfunctioning timer can stop the oven from heating up.
6. Wire and Terminal Damage: It may happen that the wiring or terminals connected to the elements are damaged resulting in an oven that can't heat up.
In all these cases, it is recommended to hire a professional to diagnose and fix the problem. It could be dangerous to try to repair an electric oven on your own.

Yes, some Ariston dishwashers require the use of dishwasher salt. Salt is used to regenerate the water softener system in the dishwasher, which prevents the build-up of limescale and ensures optimal cleaning performance. It is recommended to consult the dishwasher's user manual or contact the manufacturer directly to determine if your specific model requires salt.

1. Sort your laundry: Sort your clothes based on their colors, fabrics, and wash temperatures to ensure proper cleaning.
2. Load the machine: Open the machine's door and place your laundry inside. Be careful not to overload the machine, as this can affect the washing performance and durability.
3. Add detergent: Measure and pour the appropriate amount of detergent into the detergent dispenser drawer. Refer to the detergent's instructions for the correct dosage.

5. Start the cycle: Once you have chosen the settings, press the "Start" button to begin the wash cycle. The machine will start filling with water, agitating the laundry, draining water, and spinning to dry the clothes.
6. Add fabric conditioner (optional): If you wish to use fabric conditioner, open the machine's fabric conditioner dispenser drawer and pour in the recommended amount.
7. Remove clothes: Once the cycle is complete, the machine will either sound an alarm or display a "Finish" message. Open the door and carefully take out your freshly washed laundry.

To start your Ariston oven, please follow the steps below:
