That's absurdly long, why don't you call service? |

because everything that the Hoover/Candy company have done in the last 5 years has been stupid? Lol. A lot of modern machines take a stupidly long time. Have you checked the manual? It should have all the wash times on the program descriptions. Maybe there is a similar, yet more reasonably timed cycle that you haven't found yet? |

Is there a seeting to boost wattage consumed simultaneousy? Maybe the machine is set for another country where the mains only hold/deliver a limited wattage/capacity. |

Nothing strange about the cycle times there, the Hoover Vision that I used to have had really long cycles for the Cotton and Synthetic cycles. The Sensitive Care, or Allergy Care ( on the Candys') option also added at least another hour to the cycle, as it would extend the wash time futher due to having the reduced wash action, then a total of 5 rinses, so I didnt really use that option much! I also did find that the Time Saver option would be too short for alot of washing, in most cases as soon as the water had finished being heated to 40*c for example it would drain, so it was very hard to find a half way point with that machine in terms of cycles, the Hoovers I feel are the worst for programming - Many of them (Including the one I had) automatically added a Pre-Wash to the Synthetics cycles and I never use that option, seemed very wastefull, esspecially now considering we're meant to be washing more economically these days - totally defeats the object I think personally. From what Ive seen however on the Candy machines you can have a Synthetics cycle without a Pre wash which is better than what mine was like at least. Also what I found suprising with my Hoover was that the cycles could be that long, and still not do a fantastic job, it was better that some other machine I've had, but it didnt warrant cycles lasting over 3 hours I must say! Hope this helps :) Rich |
