Installation

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

Mains Connection

Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate, which is situated on the outer rear panel. The model number and serial number are located on the front of the cooker, as shown on the Feature’s page. The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as one who is a, NICEIC registered contractor to a suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm (applicable to newer properties, older properties where a 30A double pole control unit and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm is acceptable). The double pole control unit should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations. The control unit must be within 2 metres of but not directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of an emergency. The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2, minimum. Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains cable must pass through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.

Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between cabinets.

Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.

Note: This appliance must NOT be fitted on a platform.

Moving the Cooker

Before moving your cooker, switch off at the cooker control unit, ensure that it is cool. Open the grill door sufficiently to allow a comfortable grip on the underside front edge of the oven roof, avoiding any grill elements.

Radio Interference

The Cooking Modes in your Oven

Your new appliance is equipped with a number of different cooking modes:

Manual cooking modes

! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C and 250°C for TOP OVEN, between 800°C and 230°C for MAIN OVEN,(for GRILL mode- from 5% to 100%). If the oven had been heated up to a certain temperature level , and the newly selected temperature is lower than the temperature inside the oven, the text “Hot” appears on the display. However, it will still be possible to start cooking.

Conventional Heating (Top Oven)

- with upper and lower heat. This system is particularly suitable for roasting and baking on one shelf only.

Variable Grilling (Top Oven)

- the oven can also be used for conventional grilling with a full or half width fully controllable grill.

Note: The Top Oven door should be fully open when grilling. Temperature level can be modified in this mode.

Traditional (Main Oven)

- the upper and rear heating elements are switched on in this position. The traditional oven brings an outstanding level of temperature distribution and reduced consumption. In traditional cooking use only one rack to ensure good heat distribution. By using the various shelf positions available you can balance the quantity of heat between the upper and lower part. If cooking requires more heat from below or above, use the lower or higher shelves respectively.

MULTILEVEL mode (Main Oven) Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two racks may be used at the same time.

Rising (Main Oven)

- this mode heats and holds the oven at 35-40°C. It is ideal for proving bread and yeast based dough mixtures.

Automatic cooking modes

The temperature and the cooking duration are preset values, guaranteeing a perfect result every time

- automatically. These values are set using the C.O.P.® (Programmed Optimal Cooking) system. The cooking

cycle stops automatically and the oven indicates when the dish is cooked. You may start cooking whether the oven has been preheated or not. The cooking duration can be customised according to personal taste by modifying the

relevant value - before cooking begins - by ±5/20 minutes depending on the selected programme. The duration can however be modified even once cooking has begun. If the temperature inside the oven is higher than the suggested value for the selected mode, the text “Hot” appears on the display and it will not be possible to begin cooking; wait for the oven to cool.

! When the cooking stage has been reached, the oven buzzer sounds.

! Do not open the oven door as this will disrupt the cooking time and temperature.

BAKED CAKES mode This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are made using natural yeast, baking powder and desserts which contain no yeast. Place the dish in the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven. The maximum weight of kake is about 700 g.

BREAD mode Use this function to bake bread. To obtain the best results, we recommend that you carefully observe the instructions below:

• follow the recipe;

• do not exceed the maximum weight of the dripping

pan;

• remember to pour 50 g (0,5 dl) of cold water into

the baking tray in position 5.

• The dough must be left to rise at room temperature for

1 – 1 ½ hours (depending on the room temperature) or until the dough has doubled in size.

Recipe for BREAD:

1 Dripping pan holding 1000 g Max, lower level 2 Dripping pans each holding 1000 g Max, medium and lower levels

Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 360 g water, 11g salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast) Method:

• Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.

• Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately 35

degrees).

• Make a small well in the mound of flour.

• Pour in the water and yeast mixture.

• Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over

itself with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes until it has a uniform consistency and is not too sticky.

• Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a large

bowl and cover it with transparent plastic wrap to prevent the surface of the dough from drying out. Select the manual LOW TEMPERATURE function on the oven and set the temperature to 40°C. Place

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24

the bowl inside and leave the dough to rise for approximately 1 hour (the dough should double in volume).

• Cut the dough into equal sized loaves.

• Place them in the dripping pan, on a sheet of baking paper.

• Dust the loaves with flour.

• Make incisions on the loaves.

• Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.

• For example: it is 9:00 a.m. and a duration of 1 hour and 15 minutes is programmed. The programme will stop automatically at 10:15 a.m.

Setting the end time for a cooking mode

! A cooking duration must be set before the cooking end time can be scheduled. ! For the delayed programming to work properly, the clock should be set to the correct time.

• Start the

• Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill racks until they have cooled completely.

FISH mode Use this function to cook fish with a maximum weight of 1 kg. The paper/foil package can be placed directly on the dripping pan. Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.

ROAST MEAT mode Use this function to cook beef, veal and lamb. Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven.The maximum weight of meat is about 1kg. After selecting any of the oven programs, the parameter setting of the product is activated. It optimizes the performance of cooking, but could result in a delayed ignition of fan and heating elements.

Practical cooking advice

! Do not place racks in position 1 and 5 during fanassisted cooking. This is because excessive direct heat can burn temperature sensitive foods.

! In the GRILL cooking mode, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

MULTILEVEL

• Use positions 2 and 4, placing the food which requires more heat on 2.

• Place the dripping pan on the bottom and the rack on top.

Solarplus Grill

CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use - children should be kept away.

Your cooker is not fitted with a conventional type of grill. The solarplus grill is designed to reduce your grilling times. It is quicker because it takes less time to warm up from cold. Conventional grills require 5 minutes pre-heat before food is placed beneath them, but for normal grilling the solarplus grill can be used from cold without any pre-heat. However, when toasting, optimum performance is achieved by pre-heating the grill for about 1 minute.

Notes

You will notice that the grill elements are protected by a wire mesh. This stops you from touching live parts.

DO NOT under any circumstances insert objects into the grill mesh as this could damage or break the element tubes OR if the grill is on cause an electric shock.

During use the mesh may become soiled. Do not attempt to clean it while the grill is still on. Turn the cooker off at the control unit and wait until it has cooled down before cleaning. Care must be taken to ensure the grill mesh is not distorted - DO NOT store the grill pan handle on the grill pan grid when the grill pan runners are on the top runner position. There are two halves to the grill, one on the left and one on the right. You can choose to have both sides on or just the left side on.

Using the grill pan kit

The grill pan handle is detachable from the pan to facilitate cleaning and storage. Fix the pan handle securely before use:

1. Fit the handle to the grill pan so that the external ‘hooks’ embrace the edge of the pan (fig. 1)

2. Make sure that the middle part of the handle fits exactly the protruding support of the pan (fig .2) and holds the pan from the bottom.

The food must be placed on the rack in the grill pan. Position the grill pan on top of the oven rack. The best results are achieved by placing the oven rack on the uppermost shelves. Pouring a little water into the grill pan will make the collection of grease particles more efficient and prevent the formation of smoke.

GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED

- This will cause overheating.

To operate the grill proceed as follows:

1. Open the grill/top oven door fully.

2. Position the rod shelf as recommended, in the chart below, for the food being cooked.

3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is positioned centrally under the element.

4. Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil as this may cause overheating of fat in the grill pan.

Top Oven Conventional Cooking

The heat for conventional cooking in the top oven is provided by the grill element and the element under the floor of the oven. It is ideal for the slow cooking of cheaper cuts of meat in casseroles etc. but can also be used for small joints of meat up to 1.5kg (3lb).

See cooking charts for temperatures and shelf positioning. The top oven can be used either independently to cook small quantities of food or in conjunction with the main oven to provide additional cooking space.

 The shelf should be positioned on the first or second

runner from the bottom.

To use the oven proceed as follows:

Select the top oven, by pressing appropriate button Select desired program by turning the SELECTOR knob, located to the left. It’s possible to change default temperature and default cooking duration. To change temperature turn the THERMOSTAT/TIMER knob, clockwise to increase temperature and anticlockwise to decrease the temperature. To change the cooking duration, press the TIMER button, then turn the knob clockwise to increase and anticlockwise to decrease the cooking duration. Confirm the desired cooking duration by pressing the TIMER

button again

Platewarming in the top oven

Plates and dishes placed on shelf 1 of the top oven will be heated when the main oven is in use. When the main oven is not in use, for instance when a meal is being cooked on the hob, place the plates and serving dishes on the shelf using the bottom runner and turn the top oven control to approximately 100°C. A maximum time of 10-12 minutes is all that is required to heat the plates and dishes.

NEVER operate the grill control when using the top oven for cooking or warming plates and dishes.

WARNING: DO NOT put delicate items china or items which could be affected by heat into the oven. If using aluminium foil, never:

1. Allow foil to touch sides of oven.

2. Cover oven interior with foil.

3. Cover shelves with foil.

The most accurate method of testing the readiness of joints of meat or whole poultry is to insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of a joint, or the thickest part of poultry thighs, during the cooking period. The meat thermometer will indicate when the required internal temp has been reached.

Beef - Rare: 60°C Lamb: 80°C Poultry: 90°C

Medium: 70°C Pork: 80°C Well Done: 75°C Veal: 75°C

 The food to be cooked should be placed in the centre

of the shelf with a gap of at least 25mm (1in) between it and the grill element. This should avoid burning and ensure even cooking.

 Do not place food or dishes on the floor of the

oven.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, make sure that:

• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with the law.

• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the appliance itself.

• The voltage falls within the range of values indicated on the data plate.

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply

cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.

! The cable must not be bent or compressed. ! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by

authorised technicians only.

! The manufacturer declines any liability should these

safety measures not be observed.

! Do not remove or replace the power supply cable for any reason. Its removal or replacement will void the warranty and the CE marking. INDESIT does not assume liability for accidents or damage arising from replacement/removal of the original power supply cable. Replacement can only be accepted when carried out by personnel authorised by INDESIT and using an original spare part.

! The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease

on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

! A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity

supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now be switched on.

Types of noise during normal hob operation:

• Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases.

• Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot.

• Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase.

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24

Using the Ceramic Hob

• Loud whistle: heard when two induction elements of the same group function simultaneously at maximum power and/or when the booster function is set on the larger element while the other is autoadjusted. Noise is reduced by decreasing the power level of the auto-adjusted induction element; pot bottom layers made of different kinds of materials are among the main causes of this noise.

• Fan noise: a fan is necessary to ensure the hob functions correctly and to safeguard the electronic unit from possible overheating. The fan functions at maximum power when the large induction element is at maximum power or when the booster function is on; in all other cases, it works at average power depending on the temperature detected. Furthermore, the fan may continue to work even after switching the hob off, if the temperature detected is high.

The types of noise listed above are due to induction technology and are not necessarily operational faults.

! If the (-) or (+)button is pressed for an extended period

of time, the display scrolls quickly though the power levels and timer minutes.

Initial Light Conditions

When power is initially applied to the Cooktop, the touch control conducts a calibration process for the touch keys, which requires a low level of ambient light in the area of the touch keys. If during this calibration process excessive ambient lighting is detected the User Interface displays „FL” (Infrared Ambient Light Error) and the control calibration process is suspended. In order to rectify the process any lighting that could effect the calibration process should be switched off (e.g. halogen cooker hood lighting). The error will disappear when satisfactory ambient lighting is detected and the touch control calibration procedure will now complete satisfactorily.

-The „FL” error can only be generated within approx 3s

of initial power being applied to the cooktop.

-We recommend that the user switches off all cooker

hood lighting and lighting directed towards the cooktop when power is initially applied to the cooktop.

-After the touch control has conducted its initial cali-

bration process, (approx 3s) any cooker hood or other lighting can be switched on as normal and will not af-

fect the operation of the touch control.

Switching on the hob

After connecting the hob to the electricity mains, the touch pannel might be automatically locked. To unclock the pannel press and hold the Control Panel

Switching off the hob

Press the button to switch off the appliance - do not rely solely on the pan sensor. If the control panel lock has been activated, the controls will continue to be locked even after the hob is switched on again. In order to switch the hob on again, you must first remove the lock function.

Practical advice on using the appliance

! Use cookware made from materials which are compatible with the induction principle (ferromagnetic material). We especially recommend pans made from: cast iron, coated steel or special stainless steel adapted for induction. Use a magnet to test the compatibility of the cookware.

In addition, to obtain the best results from your hob:

• Use pans with a thick, flat base in order to fully utilise the cooking zone.

• Always use pans with a diameter which is large enough to cover the hotplate fully, in order to use all the available heat.

• An incompatible pan

• A pan whose diameter is too small

• The pan has been removed from the hotplate. After 10 sec. with no pan on the heating zone, a warning beep signal is emmited. After 60 sec. with no pan on the heating zone,, the heater switches off.

Overheating protection

If the electronic elements overheat, the number signalizing the power level starts flashing, and the letter “c” appears on the display. When the temperature has reached a suitable level, this message disappears and the hob may be used again.

Safety switch

The appliance has a safety switch which automatically switches the cooking zones off after they have been in operation for a certain amount of time at a particular power level. When the safety switch has been triggered, the display shows “0”. For example: the right rear hotplate is set to 5 and will switch off after 5 hours of continuous operation, while the front left hotplate is set to 2 and will switch off after 8 hours.

When one or more keys are activated for more than 10 sec. the touch control. switches off A warning beep sounds is emmited every 10 sec., while the key/s is/are activated. With all heaters at zero power during 10 sec. the Cooktop is switched off. If the switching off is due to an accidental activa-

tion of keys, the touch control actuates as above.

• Make sure that the base of the cookware is always clean and dry, in order to fully utilise and extend the life of both the cooking zones and the cookware.

• Avoid using the same cookware which has been used on gas burners: the heat concentration on gas burners may distort the base of the pan, causing it not to adhere correctly.

Safety devices

Pan sensor

Each cooking zone is equipped with a pan sensor device. The hotplate only emits heat when a pan with suitable measurements for the cooking zone is placed on it.

The “u” sign on the display appears if after selecting the cooking zone the pan is not placed on a heater , or in case of:

Buzzer

This can also indicate several irregularities:

• An object (a pan, cutlery, etc.) has been placed on the control panel for more than 10 seconds.

• Something has been spilt on the control panel.

Care of the Ceramic Hob

The Working of the Heating Zones

Heating only occurs within the marked circular cooking zones. The zones heat up and cool down quicker, providing greater controllability for sensitive foods. Each heating zone is equipped with a thermal limiter which is a safety cut-out which prevents the ceramic glass from overheating. After several minutes at full power without a pan on the heating zone the thermal limiter will switch the heating elements off and on automatically to avoid any damage to the ceramic glass.

The HOT HOB indicator light:

This indicates that the temperature of the corresponding cooking zone is greater than 60°C, even when the heating element has been switched off but is still hot.

Choice of saucepans

It is essential that the saucepan’s you use on the ceramic hob are suitable.

ALWAYS USE:

 Good quality pans with smooth, flat, heavy bases.  saucepan's manufactured from aluminium (enamelled

or machined) or stainless steel.

 Correct size saucepan's. The base of the pan must cover

the heating zone completely.

 saucepan's with lids which are well fitting to reduce

cooking time and energy use.

NEVER USE:

 Pans with thin, distorted or uneven bases as these

will extend cooking times, waste electricity and cause damaging, local hotspots on the glass surface.

 Pans with ridged or recessed bases.  Pans with damaged or rough bases which could scratch

the glass surface.

 Glass or glass ceramic utensils.

Do Not

In order to keep your ceramic hob in good condition, follow these simple guidelines:

Do not cook directly on the hob surface without a cooking

utensil, as this will result in damage to the surface of the hob.

Do not use the hob as a worktop surface as damage may

occur to the smooth surface of the hob.

Do not drag or slide utensils on the hob surface, as this

will cause scratches in the surface of the hob.

Do not allow a cooking utensil to come into contact with

the hob surround.

Do not place anything between the base of the utensil and

the ceramic hob, e.g. do not use asbestos mats, aluminium or wok stand.

Do not leave any utensils, food or combustible items on

the hob when it is not in use.

Do not place aluminium or plastic foil, or plastic containers

on the hob.

Do not leave the hotplates or cooking areas switched On

unless they are being used.

Do not leave heating zones uncovered when they are

switched On. We recommend not to place large preserving pans or fish kettles across two heating areas.

Do not leave utensils partly covering the heated areas.

Always ensure that they are placed centrally over the heated areas and have the same diameter as the heating area used.

Always ensure that the bottom of the pan is both clean and

dry. Dirt or moisture between the pan and the hob

can cause pitting of the surface of the glass. We do not recommend the use of utensils with a base diameter greater than 25cm (l0ins). Pressure cookers or other large pans should be used on the front cooking areas.

Always ensure that saucepan handles are positioned

safely. Always take extra care when cooking foods with a high

sugar content eg. jam, as spillage will cause

damage to the surface of the glass.

Always clean spills immediately (see Care and Cleaning).

IMPORTANT As with any cooking appliance there could

be some fire risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying, cooking utensils containing oil must not be left unattended (e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in close proximity to the patterned cooking areas.

1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the

appropriate heating area.

2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full with fat or oil.

3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or

cooking period.

4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially

frozen food. This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.

5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it

slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause frothing and spitting if added too quickly.

6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.

7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks

of oil or fat.

8. Never allow excessive splashing of oil onto the hob.

If something goes wrong...

Safety requirements for deep fat frying

In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:

1. Switch Off the electricity supply. NEVER attempt to move the pan - burns and injuries are caused almost invariably by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.

2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth. NEVER use a fire extinguisher to put out a pan fire, as the force of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over.

NEVER use water to extinguish oil or fat fires. When smothering the flames DO ENSURE that you FACE and ARMS are WELL PROTECTED from the flames to save you from becoming hurt.

3. After the fire has been extinguished LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT.

4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade

immediately.

Before calling a Service Engineer, please check through the following lists. THERE MAY BE NOTHING WRONG.

Problem Check

Slight odour or small amount of smoke when grill / oven used for first time

Nothing works

This is normal and should cease after a short period.

If you find that the timer display is blank, then it is likely that there is no electricity supply to your oven. Check: (i) That the main cooker wall is switched on (ii) Other appliances, to see if you have had a power cut (iii) The main circuit breaker for the property

Top oven, grill and main oven do not work.

Grill keeps turning on and off

Timer Display is flashing ‚0.00 ‚

Oven temperatures too high or low

Oven does not cook evenly

The oven is not working and showing F01 to F68 code in the display

Operating the cooker under the following conditions may cause a safety device to operate: (a) Grilling with the door closed - Always grill with the door fully open (b) Grilling for an excessively long period at maximum setting - see Grilling guide. Switch off appliance and allow to cool for approx 30 mins. Switch the cooker back on and check that the Grill / Top oven is now operating.

When the Grill control is operating at less than its maximum setting, the Grill will cycle on and off, this is normal and not a fault.

The power supply to your oven has possibly been interrupted, but has now come back on again. Reset the timer to the correct time and „Manual” operation using the instructions given in the timer section of the book.

Check temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the Oven Temperature Charts. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the recommended temperature slightly to suit your taste.

Check: (a) Temperature and shelf positions are as recommended in the Oven Temperature

Charts. (b) Oven utensils being used allow sufficient air flow around them.

Your appliance has developed a fault which will require assistance from our service department.

We recommend switching dripping pan positions halfway through cooking.

Disposal of your product

To minimise the risk of injury to children please dispose of your product carefully and safely. Remove all doors and lids. Remove the mains cable (where fitted) by cutting off flush with the appliance and always ensure that no plug is left in a condition where it could be connected to the electricity supply. To help the environment, Local Authority instructions should be followed for the disposal of your product.

Disposal of old electrical appliances

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24

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. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Care and Cleaning

WARNING: BEFORE CLEANING, SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE MAINS COOKER CONTROL PANEL AND ALLOW IT TO COOL. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVENS ARE CLEANED AND KEPT FREE FROM FATS, OIL AND GREASE.

! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

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.

! The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery

(even in your dishwasher).

Cleaning of the Ceramic Hob

Always clean spills immediately. If the hob is reused

before cleaning, spillage will be baked on and be very difficult to remove.

Always switch the cooker OFF at the cooker control

panel.

To minimise cleaning:

Always take care and avoid spills. Always use a Ceramic Hob Cleaner-Conditioner

whenever cleaning is done. The CleanerConditioner forms a protective film on the hob and contains a mild detergent which makes cleaning easier. Hotpoint has a CleanerConditioner which can be obtained, either through a local Hotpoint Service Centre or retailer, part no.6004.

To clean off stubborn stains, the following can be used when the surface has cooled:

1. Cif, non-scratch cream cleaner.

2. Heavy soil can be removed from the surface by carefully using a glass scraper.

3. Hard water stains, grease spots and any discolouration having a metallic sheen can be removed with Solvol Autosol Super or any non abrasive stainless steel cleaner.

After cleaning, always use the Cleaner-Conditioner and finish it off by polishing with a clean, dry paper towel.

Never use abrasive or chemical oven cleaners as they

can damage the surface of the hob. The visual effect of any scratches which may occur in use can be minimised by the use of Cleaner-Conditioner. Such scratches cannot be removed but do not affect the function of the hob in any way.

WARNING: BEFORE CLEANING, SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE MAINS COOKER CONTROL PANEL AND ALLOW IT TO COOL. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVENS ARE CLEANED AND KEPT FREE FROM FATS, OIL AND GREASE.

‚Stay Clean’ Liners

‚Stay Clean’ liners are covered with a special enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At higher temperatures the soiling is slowly destroyed. In most cases normal cooking at higher temperatures will permit this cleaning to take place automatically. However, if higher cooking temperatures are not used regularly then it may be necessary, in order to prevent heavy soiling, to run the oven at maximum temperature for at least two hours, from time to time. The ‚Stay Clean’ liners can be washed in warm soapy water followed by rinsing in clear water. Dry well with a soft cloth.

NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.

Oven Fittings

The oven shelves can be cleaned either in a dishwasher or by using a fine steel wool soap pad. The grill can be cleaned in warm soapy water using a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains or in a dishwasher. They should be cleaned after each use.

Oven Interiors

To clean the oven interiors remove all the oven fittings and where applicable the ‚Stay Clean’ liners. All types of oven cleaners can be used, but do not allow abrasive cleaners or oven spray to come into contact with the ‚Stay Clean’ liners. Use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains.

Oven Door Cleaning

The inner door glass panel can be removed for easy cleaning, see “Care and Cleaning”.

Cooker Exterior

The outside of the cooker should be cleaned regularly to keep it looking like new. Wipe over with a soft cloth wrung out in warm water and dry with a soft clean cloth. You can use mild non abrasive cleaners but always read the manufacturer’s instructions first. Always test their suitability on a small area of the cooker not noticeable in normal use.

NOTE: DO NOT use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the surface.

Wear protective gloves when cleaning any part of your cooker.

PLEASE PHONE US TO REGISTER YOUR APPLIANCE AND ACTIVATE YOUR PARTS GUARANTEE ON 08448 24 24 24

Care and Cleaning

Door and Control Panel (Glass)

Regularly wipe with a clean, damp cloth and polish with a clean, dry cloth.

Door and Control Panel Trims (Stainless Steel)

Regularly wipe with a clean, damp cloth and polish with a clean, dry cloth.

Solar Plus Grill

To clean the solar plus grill, use a clean, damp, soapy cloth and wipe over. If stubborn stains remain, gently clean with a well soaped nylon scouring pad and wipe over with a damp cloth.

NOTE: DO NOT use metal cleaning utensils, wire wool or proprietary oven cleaners on the grill element mesh.

WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, BEFORE REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT, SWITCH THE COOKER OFF AT THE COOKER CONTROL UNIT (and allow to cool if the oven has been used).

Replacement of the Oven Light

Unscrew the glass cover, using a suitable cloth to protect the fingers and remove carefully. Unscrew the existing light bulb, and remove. Screw the new bulb into position and replace the glass cover, with metal washer, until positioned securely.

2. Carefully slide the inner glass towards you and withdraw it from its locating slots. Ensure that the door is not allowed to slam shut, due to the reduction in door weight. Clean the glass as described above.

3. The inside of the outer door glass can now be cleaned while still fitted to the cooker.

Refit the door inner glass as follows.

1. Open the door fully.

2. Locate the inner door glass into its slots, so that the printing is readable from the face nearest the oven in the closed position and the widest black band is towards the bottom of the door. The inner door glass has a special reflective coating on one side, in order to minimise surface temperatures and energy consumption during use, it is important it is fitted correctly.

3. Carefully slide the glass into its slots as far as it will go and replace the end caps.

NEVER OPERATE THE COOKER WITHOUT THE INNER DOOR GLASS IN POSITION.

CLEANING THE DOORS

Take particular care not to damage the inner surface of the door inner glass that is coated with a heat reflective layer. Do not use scouring pads, or abrasive powder, which will scratch the glass. Ensure that the glass panel is not subjected to any sharp mechanical blows. Stubborn stains can be removed by using a fine steel wool soap pad. For slight soiling the inner glass panel may be cleaned, while still warm, without removing it from the door. After cleaning, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

SIDE OPENING DOORS

Cleaning the door glass is the same as the drop down doors, except take care to support the weight of the inner glass when removing and refitting.

DROP DOWN DOORS

Remove the door inner glass as follows.

1. Open the door fully and remove the extrusion end caps (This should be done by hand but if it proves too difficult, simply lift the inner glass to ease the end caps out of position).

NOTE: If you need to use a tool - be careful not to damage the extrusion or end cap.
