Start-up and use  
! The first time you use your appliance, heat the empty  
oven with its door closed at its maximum temperature  
for at least an hour. Ensure that the room is well  
ventilated before switching the oven off and opening  
the oven door. The appliance may produce a slightly  
unpleasant odour caused by the burning away of  
protective substances used during the manufacturing  
process.

Cooking modes  
Cooking modes  
e GRATIN mode  
GB  
! A temperature value can be set for all cooking  
The top heating element, as well as the fan, will come  
on. This combination of features increases the  
effectiveness of the unidirectional thermal radiation of  
the heating elements through forced circulation of the  
air throughout the oven. This helps prevent food from  
burning on the surface, allowing the heat to penetrate  
right into the food. Always cook in this mode with the  
oven door closed.  
modes between 60°C and Max, except for  
• GRILL (recommended: set only to MAX power  
level);  
• GRATIN (recommended: do not exceed 200°C).  
a TRADITIONAL OVEN mode  
Both the top and bottom heating elements will come  
on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use  
one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used,  
the heat will be distributed unevenly.  
Practical cooking advice  
! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fan-  
assisted cooking. Excessive direct heat can burn  
temperature sensitive foods.  
b MULTI-COOKING mode  
! In the GRILL and GRATIN cooking modes, place the  
dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues  
(fat and/or grease).  
All the heating elements (top and bottom), as well as  
the fan, will come on. Since the heat remains constant  
throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food  
uniformly. A maximum of two racks may be used at  
the same time.  
MULTI-COOKING  
• Use position 2 and 4, placing the food that requires  
more heat on 2.  
c TOP OVEN mode  
• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack  
on top.  
The top heating element comes on. This mode can be  
used to brown food at the end of cooking.  
GRILL  
d GRILL mode  
• Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in  
the centre of the rack.  
The top heating element comes on. The extremely  
high and direct temperature of the grill makes it  
possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts  
while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The  
grill is also highly recommended for dishes that  
require a high temperature on the surface: such as  
beef steaks, veal, rib steak, filets, hamburgers etc...  
Some grilling examples are included in the “Practical  
Cooking Advice” paragraph. Always cook in this mode  
with the oven door closed.  
• We recommend that you set the maximum power  
level. The top heating element is regulated by a  
thermostat and may not always be on.  
PIZZA  
• For best results when cooking pizza, use the  
MULTI-COOKING mode.  
• Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the  
rack provided.  
For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan  
(prevents crust from forming by extending cooking  
time).  
• If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend  
adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza  
halfway through the cooking process.

Precautions and tips  
! The appliance was designed and manufactured in  
compliance with international safety standards. The  
following warnings are provided for safety reasons  
and must be read carefully.  
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.  
GB  
Disposal  
• Observe local environmental standards when  
disposing packaging material for recycling  
purposes. Observe existing legislation when  
disposing of the old appliance.  
General safety  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use  
inside the home and is not intended for commercial  
or industrial use.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),  
requires that old household electrical appliances  
must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted  
municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be  
collected separately in order to optimise the  
recovery and recycling of the materials they contain  
and reduce the impact on human health and the  
environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin”  
symbol on the product reminds you of your  
obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance  
it must be separately collected.  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even  
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave  
the appliance exposed to rain and storms.  
• When handling the appliance, always use the  
handles provided on the sides of the oven.  
• Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with  
wet or moist hands and feet.  
• The appliance must be used to cook food by adults  
only and according to the instructions in this  
manual.  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct  
disposal of their old appliance.  
When the appliance is in use, the heating  
elements and some parts of the oven door  
become extremely hot. Make sure you don't  
touch them and keep children well away.  
Respecting and conserving the  
environment  
• Ensure that the power supply cable of other  
electrical appliances does not come into contact  
with the hot parts of the oven.  
• By using the appliance in the hours between late  
afternoon and early morning, you can help reduce  
the work load placed on electrical companies.  
• The openings used for ventilation and dispersion of  
heat must never be covered.  
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the  
GRILL and GRATIN modes: to attain best results  
and to save energy (approximately 10%).  
• Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the  
ends may be hot.  
• Always use oven gloves to place cookware in the  
oven or when removing it.  
• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to  
ensure they are free of debris so that they stick  
properly to the door and do not allow heat to  
disperse.  
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the  
oven.  
• Do not place flammable materials in the oven: if the  
appliance is switched on by mistake, it could catch  
fire.  
Recycling & Disposal Information  
• Always make sure the knobs are in the “l”/“¡”  
position when the appliance is not in use.  
As part of Hotpoint's continued commitment to helping  
the environment, Hotpoint reserves the right to use  
quality recycled components to keep down customer  
costs and minimise material wastage.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the  
plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the  
cable.  
Please dispose of packaging and old appliances  
carefully.  
• Never carry out any cleaning or maintenance work  
without having unplugged the plug from the mains.  
To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the door,  
plug and cut mains cable off flush with the appliance.  
Dispose of these parts separately to ensure that the  
appliance can no longer be plugged into a mains  
socket, and the door cannot be locked shut.  
• In the case of a malfunction, under no  
circumstances should you attempt to repair the  
appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by  
inexperienced persons may cause injury or further  
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a Service  
Centre (see Assistance).

Maintenance and care  
Switching the appliance off  
Inspecting the seals  
GB  
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply  
before carrying out any work on it.  
Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If  
the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest  
After-sales Service Centre (see Assistance). We  
recommend not using the oven until the seals have  
been replaced.  
Cleaning the appliance  
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on  
the appliance.  
Replacing the light bulb  
• The stainless-steel or enamel-coated external parts  
as well as the rubber seals may be cleaned using a  
sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water  
and neutral soap. If these stains are difficult to  
remove, use only specialised products. After  
cleaning, rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use  
abrasive powders or corrosive substances.  
• Ideally, the inside of the oven should be cleaned  
after each use, when it is still lukewarm. Use hot  
water and detergent, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.  
Do not use abrasive products.  
To replace the oven light bulb:  
• The accessories can be washed like everyday  
crockery (even in your dishwasher).  
1. Remove the glass cover of the lamp-holder.  
2. Remove the light bulb and replace it with a similar  
one: Wattage 25 W, cap E 14.  
Cleaning the oven door  
3. Replace the glass cover (see diagram).  
Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge  
and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry  
thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive  
material or sharp metal scrapers as these could  
scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.  
To clean more thoroughly, you can remove the oven  
door.  
1. Open the oven door fully (see diagram).  
2. Lift up and turn the small levers located on the two  
hinges (see diagram).  
F
3. Grip the door on the two  
external sides and close it  
approximately half way. Unlock  
the door by pressing on the  
clamps F, then pull the door  
F
towards you lifting it out of its  
seat (see diagram).  
To replace the door, reverse
