Can I stack my Hotpoint fridge and freezer on top of each other?

You must not stack your Hotpoint refrigeration appliances directly on top of each other as the cabinets of the appliances are not suitable for this purpose.

In order to be able to stack appliances you will need to purchase a product that is designed and built with this type of floor space saving feature such as an Hotpoint fridge freezer.

What does the holiday button do on my Hotpoint appliance fridges?

The holiday button that is fitted to certain models is to be used after you have emptied the appliance and intend to be away from the house for a number of days or weeks.

During this period of absence your appliance will run on the bare minimum of temperatures within the freezer compartment and disconnect the cooling apparatus within your fridge.

Using the assumption that as you are away from your appliance and that the doors will be kept shut, the energy consumption will be much lower.

Do not press the holiday button unless the fridge compartment of your Hotpoint appliance is empty as selecting this option whilst the fridge is full will result in food loss.
