Did you ever find an answer to your question - I've got the same problem with my Hotpoint New Edition and am wondering what to do? Any suggestions would be gratefully received - thanks
I have a Hotpoint First Edition 1000 washing machine and for the last two washes have had what looks like brown limescale marks and in some cases actual pieces on the washing. Do I need to run a cleaning washing through and if so what do I put in to clean it? Many thanks
