Introduction  
Your new electric oven is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance  
has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions detailed in this booklet.  
To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.  
The oven is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.  
Note:When the oven is first used, an odour may be omitted - this will cease after a short period of use.  
To help remove the 'new' smell, heat the empty oven to maximum temperature for a minimum of two to three hours,  
keeping the door/s closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (eg. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that  
persons who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room  
until the smell has ceased.  
This odour is due to any temporary finish on oven linings and elements and any moisture absorbed by the insulation.  
*The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:  
(a) Has been used solely in accordance with this booklet.  
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate, attached to the  
appliance.  
(c) Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the  
manufacturers authorised employee or agent.

THE COOKING FUNCTION SELECTOR  
: "Fast cooking"  
It comprises 10 marks represented in order by the following  
pictograms:  
«0» : stop  
The combination of all the heating elements together with  
the fan guarantees a uniform distribution of heat throughout  
the oven.  
This particular cooking mode is ideal for fast cooking  
(not requiring any pre-heating) and for cooked dishes  
(frozen, pre-cooked food).  
In this case, use the baking tray as a dish support and  
place it on the 2nd shelf position from the oven bottom.  
: oven light  
The oven light stays on during cooking, in whatever  
cooking mode (with the exception of Fast Clean).  
If you decide to delay the cooking start, the oven light  
comes on as soon as you programme the start and stays  
on until the cooking is finished.  
: "Multicooking"  
: "Traditional"  
The combination of all the heating elements together with  
the fan guarantees a uniform distribution of heat throughout  
the oven.  
This cooking mode is recommended for cooking several  
dishes on more than one shelf.  
This cooking mode is suitable for cooking individual dishes.  
Two heating elements (one at the top of the oven and the  
other at the bottom) work together.  
The air heats up upon contact with these heat sources,  
and circulates around the inside of the oven to provide  
uniform heat, as the hot, lighter air tends to rise. This is  
caused by natural convection. This cooking mode is  
especially recommended when cooking simmered recipes  
using covered casserole dishes (hotpots, tripe, etc.) or  
for Bain Marie cooking (crème caramel, terrines, etc.).  
In this case, use the baking tray as a dish support and  
place it on the 2nd shelf position from the oven bottom.  
We recommend you pre-heat the oven before placing your  
dishes in it.  
Even if the dishes vary in nature, their respective flavours  
are maintained during cooking.  
When using this cooking mode, all the dishes should  
require the same cooking temperature (you just need to  
take them out gradually as each one is ready). When  
cooking on two shelves, for example, use the baking tray  
as a dish support on the first shelf position from the bottom  
and the shelf on the third shelf position from the bottom.  
We recommend you pre-heat the oven before placing your  
dishes in it.  
: "Pastry"  
: "Pizza"  
Only the circular heating element at the back of the oven  
and the fan come on to provide delicate heat, suitable for  
baking cakes and pastries such as brioches, chocolate  
cake, fruitcake, sponge cake, mini cup cakes, meringues,  
etc.  
In this case, use the baking tray as a dish support and  
place it on the 2nd shelf position from the oven bottom.  
We recommend you pre-heat the oven before placing your  
dishes in it.  
The heating elements (bottom and circular) are turned on  
to heat the oven up quickly.  
Your pizzas and tarts will benefit from a greater amount  
of heat from below, thus guaranteeing the rapid baking of  
the dough during cooking.As for the fan, the latter browns  
the surface as necessary, making the food even more  
appetising.  
Use the baking tray as a dish support and place it on the  
1st shelf position from the oven bottom.  
We recommend you pre-heat the oven before placing your  
dishes in it.

The Controls  
Continued ventilation  
: "Grill"  
The fan stays on when cooking is finished in order to cool  
the oven down. So do not worry if you hear the fan going  
even after you have turned the controls off. The fan will  
stop when the temperature has dropped below 120°C.  
The top heating element comes on: the grill goes red and  
emits infrared rays. This cooking mode does not  
essentially intend to heat up the air inside the oven, but  
rather to expose the food directly to these rays.  
Use this cooking mode with the oven door closed.  
We recommend you start with the oven cold.  
: Fast Clean  
The amount of heat radiated is adjustable on the  
temperature selector.  
Place the grill pan on the first shelf position from the bottom  
in order to catch any fat or juices that may drip from the  
dish and place the shelf on one of the top shelf positions  
depending on the size of the meat.  
This process cleans the oven fully.  
For further details on the oven's fast clean properties,  
please see Fast Clean section.  
: "Gratin"  
Only the top heating element comes on, with the emission  
of infrared rays. The forced circulation of air caused by  
the fan at the back of the oven ensures the uniform  
distribution of heat throughout, and all foods benefit from  
the following at the same time:  
the infrared rays that guarantee the perfect cooking  
of the food surface, sealing in the tenderness and juices  
in the case of meat,  
the hot air that also allows for the food to be cooked  
thoroughly via conduction.  
This cooking mode is recommended when cooking roasts  
(red or white meats), and for poultry.  
Place the shelf on the 2nd shelf position from the oven  
bottom as a support for the meat and the grill pan on the  
1st shelf position from the bottom to catch any dripping  
fat or juices.  
Always place your food in the oven when it is cold.  
Your oven is equipped with a rotisserie, you can use it  
with the functions grill and gratin. Always keep the oven  
door shut when using the rotisserie and start with the oven  
cold in order to avoid scalding yourselves when positioning  
the spit.  
Place the grill pan on the 1st shelf position from the bottom  
to catch any dripping fat or juices and position the rotisserie  
on the 3rd shelf position from the oven bottom (please see  
the next paragraph for instructions on positioning the  
rotisserie).  
When using the "grill" or "gratin" modes, remember  
to keep children away from the accessible parts of  
the appliance as they become very hot.

The accessories  
Your oven offers you many differing cooking modes. These  
can only be achieved thanks to a number of accessories  
which we have chosen for you.  
The rotisserie  
Wing screw  
Spit  
These accessories slide in and out of the different shelf  
positions inside your oven and can thus be positioned  
according to the individual cooking requirements of differing  
foods and dishes.  
Spit cradle  
Prong  
The grill pan / baking tray  
Use it:  
as a grill pan or baking tray. There is a grid to grill food  
on which fits into the grill pan.  
as a dish support for all dishes when cooking on  
one rack only and in Bain Marie cooking,  
as a support for food (mini cup cakes, etc.),  
Spit handle  
This accessory is ideal for roasting meats, as it rotates the  
meat slowly and browns uniformly until cooking is finished.It  
is comprised of the following:  
a support situated on the 3rd shelf position from the  
oven bottom so the rotisserie fits into the hollow shaft  
of the rotisserie motor located at the back of the oven,  
behind the perforated oven back panel.  
as a drip tray to catch juices and fat dripping from  
food situated on the rod shelf.  
We advise against using the baking tray / grill pan on the 4th  
and 5th shelf positions from the oven bottom.  
a spit that passes through the roast, which is kept  
firmly in place on both ends by two adjustable sliding  
forks each fastened onto the spit by means of a wing  
nut.  
The large rod shelf  
Always use this with the edges upwards and together with  
the grill pan.  
Warning: when positioning the rotisserie assembly, ensure  
the spit fits firmly into the hollow shaft connected to the motor.  
Make sure you position the following correctly:  
- the spit in the centre of the roast  
- the roast at an equal distance from both ends of the spit.  
When it is positioned on the 2nd shelf position from the  
oven bottom, it acts as a meat support, with the grill pan  
placed on the 1st shelf position from the bottom to catch  
any dripping fat or juices.  
a removable handle made of insulating material to  
screw onto the front of the spit allows you:  
- to have a rotisserie which is long enough for even  
the largest of roasts  
When it is positioned on the top shelf position  
(depending on the size of the foodstuff) for grilled food,  
the grill pan is to be placed on the 1st shelf position from  
the oven bottom to catch any dripping fat or juices.  
- to avoid scalding yourself when removing the roast  
at the end of cooking.  
Screw on the handle tightly to take out the spit (the handle  
When it is positioned on the top shelf position for  
cooking on more than one shelf.  
should be removed from the spit during cooking).  
We advise against placing meat directly onto the grill  
pan when using the "gratin" mode as the fat and juices  
heated from below in this particular cooking mode could  
in fact char and splash onto the oven inside panels and  
create smoke.  
Rotisserie timer  
This oven is fitted with a rotisserie timing device.  
When cooking is finished, the rotisserie motor continues to  
turn the spit and only comes to a stop when the temperature  
inside the oven has dropped sufficiently: this prevents the  
surface of the meat from burning.  
When cooking is finished, leave the function selector set to  
the cooking mode under way and set the temperature  
selector back to the minimum setting.

Care and Cleaning  
Always unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off  
the main switch before all operations.  
Disassembling the oven door  
The oven door can easily be removed to clean the space  
between the bottom of the door and the front of the oven.To  
disassemble the door, proceed as follows:  
- open the oven door fully,  
Inside the oven  
We recommend you clean your oven each time you use it,  
especially after cooking roasts. In fact, it is advisable to  
prevent food residue from building up during cooking: the  
residue would be re-cooked each time the oven is used  
and would char and release smoke and unpleasant  
odours.  
- lift up and turn the small levers situated on the two hinges,  
- shut the door, but not completely,  
- grip the door on the two external sides and pull it towards  
you, pulling it out of its seat.  
Reassemble the door by following the above procedures  
in reverse order.  
Oven exterior  
Clean the enamelled or stainless steel exterior surfaces of  
your oven using a sponge soaked in soapy water, making  
sure you rinse and dry these thoroughly, without using  
abrasive or corrosive products which could damage them.  
1

3
Stainless steel  
Rinse stainless steel parts and dry them thoroughly using  
a soft cloth.Use a specific non-abrasive product to remove  
tougher stains,  
DO NOT use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the  
oven.  
1
2
3
To avoid having to clean the bottom of the oven, you must  
never be tempted to line it with some aluminium foil. We  
strongly advise against this.The aluminium foil sheet  
in direct contact with the heated enamel coating could  
melt and damage the enamel coating inside the oven  
irreversibly.  
Cleaning the rotisserie and other accessories  
The rotisserie can be removed completely using the 2 wing  
nuts. The elements comprising the rotisserie assembly  
should be cleaned together with the other accessories  
(baking tray, shelf) in the sink using a damp sponge and  
ordinary detergent or in your dishwasher.  
Replacing the oven lamp  
- Always unplug the appliance from the mains or switch  
off the main switch before all operations.  
- With the aid of a narrow, flat item (such as a screwdriver  
or a spoon handle, etc), remove the glass cover.  
- Unscrew the lamp and replace it with another featuring  
the same characteristics:  
Rubber Seal  
- voltage 230/240 W  
- wattage 25 W  
- type E 14  
There is a rubber seal surrounding the oven opening which  
guarantees its perfect functioning. Check the condition of  
this seal on a regular basis. If necessary, clean it using  
warm water and dry thoroughly.  
DO NOT use abrasive products or objects to do so. Should  
the seal become damaged, please contact Hotpoint Service  
(see KEY CONTACTS, back page). We recommend you  
avoid using the oven until it has been repaired.  
- Replace the glass cover and ensure you reposition the  
seal correctly.

How to start the cleaning process  
Safety  
In fast clean mode, the temperature inside the oven reaches  
500°, which is necessary for the destruction of food and fat  
residue, as illustrated below.  
Take all the accessories out of the oven. Remove the  
toughest grease and food spots and especially all  
substantial overflows in order to avoid the creation of  
flames or smoke.  
Given this high temperature, your oven is fitted with some  
safety devices:  
Shut the oven door.  
the oven door is locked automatically as soon as  
the temperature reaches 125°C in order to avoid risks  
of burns.  
Turn the function selector to  
Programme it..You can choose between:  
- an immediate start  
- a delayed start  
the heating elements are no longer powered if an  
anomaly occurs.  
The pyrolytic self-cleaning process takes approximately  
90 minutes.  
Note:  
1. Despite the high temperatures inside the oven during the  
pyrolytic self-cleaning process, the external surfaces of the  
appliance remain luke warm, thanks to:  
What happens during the fast clean process?  
When the temperature reaches 325°C, the oven door is  
automatically locked:the letter "P" comes up on the display,  
along with the remaining process time, as it decreases.  
The oven door stays locked for as long as the temperature  
inside the oven remains high.  
- a reinforced insulation of the oven compartment.  
- a fan that ensures the circulation of air to cool down  
the  
oven wall panels.  
2. When looking through the oven door, you may notice some  
particles that light up when they are destroyed by pyrolysis  
upon contact with the heating elements: this is simply  
spontaneous combustion, it is extremely normal and  
without danger.  
What happens at the end of the fast clean  
cycle?  
Precautions to be taken before performing the  
fast clean process  
When the process is over, "P.0.00" comes up on the display.  
To be able to open the oven door, you will have to:  
- wait for the temperature inside the oven to have dropped to  
an acceptable level.  
1- Try to remove the larger food residue from inside the  
oven using a wet sponge.We highly advise against the use  
of detergents or all other products recommended for cleaning  
ovens.  
2- Remove all the accessories from the oven: they are  
not designed to withstand such high temperatures. What's  
more, some of these accessories would alter the result of  
the pyrolytic self-cleaning process and obstruct the circulation  
of heat inside the oven. The accessories can easily be  
cleaned like everyday crockery and are dishwasher-proof.  
3- Don't leave any tea towels on the oven door handle.  
- have to set the function control back to O.  
You will notice some white dust deposits on the bottom and  
sides of the oven, remove them with a damp sponge when  
the oven has cooled down completely.  
If on the other hand you want to take advantage of the heat  
accumulated during the process to start cooking, the dust  
can stay where it is: it is completely harmless and will not  
affect your food.  
Warning: the oven surfaces may get hot during the fast  
clean process: keep children well away.

Troubleshooting  
If your oven releases a lot of smoke during cooking:  
Make sure you have selected the correct cooking mode for the type of dish you want to prepare and that you have  
selected the right accessories and put the dish in the oven at the recommended rack height.  
Check the temperature selected: is it too high for the type of cooking required.  
Check the degree of soil of the oven, and whether it needs to be cleaned. Food residue encrusted onto the enamel  
coating inside the oven becomes charred and creates both smoke and pungent smells.  
Splashes of grease or overflows onto very hot surfaces could create smoke.  
Notice: the appliance is fitted with a diagnosis system which  
detects any malfunctions. The user is informed of the latter  
by messages such as:  
"FnFm" (n and m are numbers):in these cases, contact  
your nearest Hotpoint Service (see KEY CONTACTS,  
back page).
