What do these symbols mean on Hoover Performa 600 Washing Machine?
I inherited this hoover washing machine but don't know what the icons refer to and can't seem to get it to fill with water. It's hooked up to water hose and hose is on. I'm not sure re settings. I have searched online for the manual-no luck. See attached image.

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
Hoover Performa 600 symbols identified by finding the correct manual
- The problem
- The owner had inherited a Hoover Performa 600 washing machine and could not understand the programme symbols. They also initially could not get the machine to fill with water, but were unsure whether this was due to incorrect settings because they did not have the instruction book.
- Likely cause
- The main supported issue was difficulty identifying the correct model number and obtaining the user manual. The discussion does not confirm a mechanical fault with the washer or a definite cause of the no-fill symptom.
- What fixed it
- Use the correct model number from the appliance rating information, stated in the discussion as AM640/AM640S, and obtain the corresponding instruction manual. The owner later confirmed they successfully found the manual after re-entering the number and selecting the model from the list.
- Checks to try
- Confirmed the water hose was connected and turned on
- Checked the model number from the machine photos
- Advised that full model numbers on Hoover washing machines are usually behind the door

That's an old one. You should be able to download a full instruction book from here - appliance instruction manuals just make sure you look for the proper model number (which looks like AM640S). Full model numbers on Hoover washing machines are usually behind the door.

thanks.Your message helped me find the manual number. after hours of searching I still could not get the user guide. I still don't know what the icons refer to.
I'd be surprised if they aren't in the instruction book although if not I'd take that as it being unnecessary to understand them.

I can't get the instruction book.
I found it in 15 seconds using the link I posted Your model number according to your photos is AM640. You just need to select Laundry Appliances from the right menu then washing machine.
