Sorry Lee, but I have buried your recent posts amongst the servicing bumpff. The manual is for the original 1701 and will most definitely cover your machine.

I am impressed that you are able to remove the fascia stickers! I have one that such treatment requires meeting out on to, but am just not brave enough and as the fascia is so rare I daren't risk an attempt.

I definitely have replacement buttons for you and I might have a chrome door that is less pitted - problem is that they are deep in storage and I cant get to them for a while:-(
But they are features that can be easily retrofitted after the bodyshell has been restored.

Will post some of the part out photos soon.
Paul
p.s if you decide to touch up the silver covering on the back of the fascia, to try and fill in the blemishes, let me know what shade you find is best match.

As ever I’m indebted to you for your time photographing and posting the service guide.

Big thank you.

Hotpoint "ECO" buttons

Ere maybe Hotpoint were ahead of there time and developed special plastics that would naturally decompose, that way not polluting mother earth

And Hoover with there Green half load "save the planet" buttons on there early machines..............
