WIRE SHELF DRIP TR AY BAKING TRAY SLIDING RUNNERS

TURNSPIT GRILL PAN SET

INSERTING THE WIRE SHELF AND OTHER
ACCESSORIES

Insert the wire shelf horizontally by sliding it across
the shelf guides, making sure that the side with the
raised edge is facing upwards.

Other accessories, such as the drip tray and the
baking tray, are inserted horizontally in the same way
as the wire shelf.

FITTING THE SLIDING RUNNERS

Remove the shelf guides from the oven and remove
the protective plastic from the sliding runners.

Fasten the upper clip of the
runner to the shelf guide
and slide it along as far as it
will go. Lower the other clip
into position.

To secure the guide, press
the lower portion of the
clip firmly against the shelf
guide. Make sure that the
runners can move freely.
Repeat these steps on the
other shelf guide on the same level.

Please note: The sliding runners can be tted on any level

The number of accessories may vary depending on which
model is purchased.
Other accessories can be purchased separately from the
After-sales Service.

REMOVING AND REFITTING THE SHELF GUIDES

• To remove the shelf guides, lift them up and pull the
lower parts out of their lodgings: The shelf guides can
now be removed.

• To refit the shelf guides, first fit them back into their
upper seating. Keeping them held up, slide them
into the cooking compartment, then lower them into
position in the lower seating.

USING THE TURNSPIT

Push the skewer through the
centre of the meat (bound
with string if poultry) and
slide the meat onto the
skewer until it is positioned
firmly on the fork and
cannot move. Push the
second fork onto the skewer
and slide it on until it holds
the meat firmly in place.

Tighten the fixing screw to secure it in position.

Insert the end into
the recess provided
in the oven's cooking
compartment and rest
the rounded part on the
relevant support.

Please note: To collect the
cooking juices, position the
drip tray below and add
500ml of water. To avoid
burning yourself when the skewer is hot, only handle it by
the plastic handle (which must be removed before cooking).

FUNCTIONS

docs.hotpoint.eu for more information

TRADITIONAL

FAST PREHEATING

For preheating the oven quickly.

CONVENTIONAL

For cooking any kind of dish on one shelf only.

GRILL

For grilling steaks, kebabs and sausages,
cooking vegetables au gratin or toasting bread.
When grilling meat, we recommend using a drip tray
to collect the cooking juices: Position the pan on any
of the levels below the wire shelf and add 500 ml of
water.

TURBO GRILL

For roasting large joints of meat (legs, roast
beef, chicken). We recommend using a drip tray to
collect the cooking juices: Position the pan on any
of the levels below the wire shelf and add 500ml of
water. The turnspit (if provided) can be used with
this function.

FORCED AIR

For cooking different foods that require the
same cooking temperature on several shelves
(maximum three) at the same time. This function
can be used to cook different foods without odours
being transferred from one food to another.

CONVECTION BAKE

For cooking meat or baking cakes with liquid
centre on a single shelf.

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

DEFROST

For defrosting food more quickly.

KEEP WARM

For keeping just-cooked food hot and crisp.

RISING

For helping sweet or savoury dough to rise
effectively. To maintain the quality of proving, do not
activate the function if the oven is still hot following
a cooking cycle.

CONVENIENCE

The function cooks all kinds of dishes quickly
and gently. It can also be used to reheat food that
has already been cooked and then stored at room
temperature or in the refrigerator.

MAXI COOKING

For cooking large joints of meat (above 2.5kg).
We recommend turning the meat over during
cooking to ensure that both sides brown evenly. We
also recommend basting the joint every so often to
prevent it from drying out excessively.

FROZEN FOOD

Lasagne - pizza - strudel - French fries - bread.

This function automatically selects the optimum
cooking temperature and cooking mode for five
different types of frozen convenience food. Select
“Custom” to set the temperature for other types of
products.

SLOW COOKING

For cooking meat and fish gently while
keeping them tender and succulent. We recommend
searing roasting joints in a pan first to brown the
meat and help seal in its natural juices. Cooking
times range from two hours for fish weighing 300g
to four or five hours for fish weighing 3kg, and from
four hours for joints of meat weighing 1kg to six or
seven hours for joints of meat weighing 3kg.

ECO FORCED AIR*

For cooking stuffed roasting joints and fillets
of meat on a single shelf. Food is prevented from
drying out excessively by gentle, intermittent air
circulation. When this function is in use, the ECO
light will remain switched off throughout cooking
but can be switched back on temporarily by pressing

. To use the ECO cycle and therefore optimise
power consumption, the oven door should not be
opened until the food is completely cooked.

* Function used as reference for the energy eciency

FULLY AUTOMATIC RECIPES

For eliminating cooking spatters using a cycle at very
high temperature (approx. 500°C). Two selfcleaning
cycles are available: A complete cycle (PYRO) and

using the quicker cycle at regular intervals and the
complete cycle only when the oven is heavily soiled.

function and time automatically.

audible signal volume, brightness, Eco mode).

Please note: When the oven is switched o but Eco mode is

buttons are pressed, etc.

USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

3. HEAT THE OVEN

A new oven may release odours that have been left
behind during manufacturing: This is completely
normal.
Before starting to cook food, we therefore
recommend heating the oven with it empty in order
to remove any possible odours.

Remove any protective cardboard or transparent lm
from the oven and remove any accessories from inside it.
Heat the oven to 200 °C for around one hour, ideally
using a function with air circulation (e.g. “Forced Air”
or “Convection Bake”).
Follow the instructions for setting the function
correctly.

Please note: It is advisable to air the room after using the
appliance for the rst time.
