This approach removes 99% of daily stains while protecting fabric fibres throughout the wash. The Soft Drum design further reduces the risk of snagging, keeping clothes in better condition over time. Steam-powered hygiene and versatile programme selection: With 16 wash programmes on board, the HBWR 496B8G-80 covers everything from a gentle Hand Wash to the Hygiene Plus 59 cycle, which uses steam and a powerful rinse sequence at 60°C for anti-bacterial results. The Fresh Vapour cycle refreshes garments without a full wash, while the Rapid option suits smaller loads when time is short. Smart Spray keeps the porthole and gasket free from residue buildup between cycles. Sensor Dry stops the cycle at exactly the right moment: Sensor Dry monitors moisture levels throughout the drying phase and stops automatically once your selected dryness level is reached, preventing over-drying and reducing energy waste. Four drying temperatures and six dryness levels give precise control over the finish. The combined wash and dry cycle handles a full 9 kg wash load through to drying in a single run, making it well suited to households without space for two separate appliances. hOn app connectivity with over 60 downloadable cycles: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity via the hOn app (iOS and Android) lets you start, stop, and monitor cycles remotely. The app provides access to more than 60 specialist programmes beyond the 16 built-in options, as well as energy consumption tracking and self-maintenance planning. KG Mode detects the actual weight of the load and adjusts water and energy use accordingly, while a 24-hour start delay lets you schedule cycles around your household routine. Built for long-term reliability: The Inverter BPM motor is designed for quiet, efficient performance and contributes to the machine's A noise emission class rating at 70 dB(A) during the wash cycle. Hoover's internal durability testing is rated to 4,000 cycles, equivalent to up to 20 years of typical household use. A 1-year manufacturer's labour warranty and a 10-year parts warranty (subject to registration) are included.
