The Cooking Modes
in your Cooker
Your new cooker is equipped with a number of
different cooking modes:
GB
Roast Chicken (Main Oven)
- specially created for cooking excellent roast
poultry. This mode can be used to roast chickens,
duck, turkey and other poultry to perfection. Each
heating element is used in the cycle to guarantee a
homogeneous temperature within the oven. A
temperature is suggested on this mode but this can
be altered using the '+/-' control knob.
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 open when
grilling.
Fish (Main Oven)
- this mode provides gently pulsing top and rear
heat to lightly poach fish dishes without overcooking
or drying out. A temperature is suggested on this
mode but this can be altered using the '+/-' control
knob.
Fan Oven (Main Oven)
- the fan oven operates by constantly blowing
heated air, from an element wrapped around the fan,
into the oven. This gives improved efficiency and in
general, enables the use of lower temperatures for
cooking. It also means that there is less need to be
particular about shelf positions and that you can
bake at more than one level simultaneously (Batch
Baking).
Bread cycle - Auto
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour.
When this mode is selected the time and
temperature cannot be adjusted. It is suitable for
baking bread weighing up to 1.5kg, either in a tin or
on a baking tray. This mode includes a proving
cycle and a baking cycle. If an initial proving cycle
is needed this can be done using the RISE mode
(8). Some recipe ideas are included in the recipe
book supplied with the cooker.
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
Cake cycle - Auto
- this mode is fully automatic and lasts for 1 hour.
When this mode is selected the time and
temperature cannot be adjusted. It is suitable for
baking sponge based cakes that take between 30
minutes and 1 hour to cook. Some recipe ideas are
included in the recipe book supplied with the
cooker.
respectively.
Roast Meat (Main Oven)
Rising (Main Oven)
- specially created for cooking joints of meat. This
mode raises the temperature in the oven to a very
high heat for the first part of the cooking cycle to
seal the outside of the joint and retain the juices of
the meat throughout cooking. After this the
temperature is reduced to the set temperature using
each heating element in turn to guarantee a
homogeneous temperature for the cooking period. A
temperature is suggested on this mode but this can
be altered using the '+/-' control knob.
- this mode heats and holds the oven at 40°C. It is
ideal for proving bread and yeast based dough
mixtures. When this mode is selected a cooking
duration of 14 minutes is automatically set, this can
be altered by pressing the 'time/mode' button until
the cooking duration icon flashes. Then use the '+/-'
control knob to adjust the cooking duration.

Temperatures
The recommended temperatures given are for
conventional and fan ovens. When using a fan oven
it will be necessary to reduce the cooking time by 10
minutes per hour and lower the temperature by up to
20°C.
Also, in the majority of cases, it is not necessary to
pre-heat the oven.
However, pre-heating is recommended when
cooking items such as Yorkshire puddings, whisked
sponges and bread. Your experience with the cooker
will enable you to select the cooking time and
temperature best suited for your recipe.
Condensation
Condensation may become evident on the inner door
and water may drip through the vent. This is normal
when heat and moisture are present and may be a
result of any of the following:
1. Kitchen temperature and ventilation.
2. The moisture content of the food eg. meat, roast
potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, roasting meat, etc.
3. The quantity of the food being cooked at any one
time.

The Working of the Heating Zones
Do Not
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.
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.
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.
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.
Choice of saucepans
It is essential that the saucepan's you use on the
ceramic hob are suitable.
ALWAYS USE:
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.
•
•
•
•
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.
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.
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
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.
GB
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).
4. If you fail to put the fire out, call the fire brigade
immediately.
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.

Solarplus Grill
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.
Warning: Accessible parts may become hot
during use. Young children should be kept
away.
GB
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.
Turning the control knob clockwise, will switch both
sides on. Turning it anti-clockwise, will only switch
the left side on.
The numbers which are displayed indicate the heat
setting:
MAXIMUM is the hottest and MINIMUM the coolest.
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.
GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN
WITH THE TOP OVEN/GRILL DOOR CLOSED
- This will cause overheating.
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.
The grill will not operate unless the top oven control
is in the Off position, 'O'.
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
(next page), for the food being cooked.
3. Place the grill pan on the rod shelf, ensuring it is
positioned centrally under the element.
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.
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
Using the grill pan kit
GB
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).
The operation of the controls is covered in “The
Controls” on page 6.
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 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.
•
The shelf should be positioned on the first or
second runner from the bottom.
2
1
To use the oven proceed as follows:
•
•
•
Set the top oven control to the required
temperature, the top oven light will come on and
wait for the thermostat light to go off, indicating
that the oven has reached the right temperature.
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.
25 mm (1 in)
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.

ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVENS ARE CLEANED
AND KEPT FREE FROM FATS, OIL AND GREASE.
'Stay Clean' Liners
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners
on the appliance.
'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.
! 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
NOTE: Do not use enzyme washing powder, harsh
abrasives or chemical oven cleaners of any kind.
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.
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.
To minimise cleaning:
Always take care and avoid spills.
Always use a Ceramic Hob Cleaner-Conditioner
whenever cleaning is done. The Cleaner-
Conditioner forms a protective film on the
hob and contains a mild detergent which
makes cleaning easier. Hotpoint has a
Cleaner-Conditioner which can be obtained,
either through a local Hotpoint Service Centre
or retailer, part no.6004.
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.
To clean off stubborn stains, the following can be
used when the surface has cooled:
Oven Door Cleaning
The inner door glass panel can be removed for easy
cleaning, see “Care and Cleaning”.
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.
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.
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.

Disposal
Disposal of your product
GB
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

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.
