Before you operate your new
Hotpoint Double Oven
Please read these instructions fully.
1. Your oven should not be located adjacent to a gas hob/heater or eye level
grill as flames from the burners could cause damage to your oven.
2. For your own safety and to get the best results from your oven it is important
to read through this Handbook before using your oven for the first time
including the Always and Never on pages 8 and 9.
Electrical Requirements
●For your own safety, we recommend that your cooker is installed by a
competent person – such as one who is registered with NICEIC (National
Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting). The cooker should
be installed in accordance with the latest Edition of the IEE Regulations.
●THE INSTALLER MUST check that the voltage shown on the rating plate
corresponds with the house electricity supply.
●The oven must be supplied via a suitable double pole isolating switch,
having a contact separation of at least 3 mm in all poles placed in a readily
accessible position adjacent to the unit.
●The maximum loading for your oven is 5.3kW.
●If the oven is to be wired into a connector unit this may be positioned
behind the oven provided the following requirements are met:
i) The connector unit must not project from the wall more than 25 mm.
ii) The top of the connector must not be more than 350 mm above the base
of the oven recess.
●After unpacking the oven stand it on the packing base in order to avoid
damage.
Electrical Connections
●Remove the terminal cover at the rear base of the oven. Pass the cable
through the cable clamp and connect to the appropriate terminals provided.
Allow sufficient cable so that the oven can be set down on the floor whilst
still connected up. Tighten the screws on the cable clamp and replace the
terminal cover. Make mains connections.
This appliance conforms to EN55014 regarding suppression of Radio
and Television reception interference.
Where a double oven is used a 32 amp double pole control switch should be
used to feed the unit using a suitable rated cable. We recommend that a
minimum of 4mm2PVC insulated twin and earth cable conforming to B.S. 6004.
●Where a hob is fitted adjacent to an oven then a 45 amp Double Pole control
switch should be used to feed both units via separate suitably rated cables.
We recommend that a minimum of 4mm2PVC insulated twin and earth
cable conforming to B.S. 6004.

Retention of this Instruction Book
This Instruction Book must be kept handy for reference as it contains important
details on the safe and proper use of the appliance.
If you sell or pass the appliance to someone else, or move house and leave it behind, make
sure this Book is also provided so the new owner can become familiar with the appliance and
safety warnings.
If the Book is lost or damaged a copy may be obtained from General Domestic Appliances Ltd,
Morley Way, Peterborough, PE2 9JB.
When first using the cooker ensure that the room is well ventilated (e.g. 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 temporary
finish on oven liners and elements and also any moisture absorbed by the insulation.

Ensure that the electricity supply
is turned off before installing
your appliance.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT LIFT OVEN BY THE
DOOR HANDLES.
This equipment is designed
specifically for domestic purposes
and Hotpoint Limited cannot accept
responsibility if used for any other
type of application.
All electrical installations must be
carried out by a NICEIC registered
installer.
1. General
The appliance is designed for
mounting at a safe level into an
open housing which must be
secured to the backing wall.
2. Oven Unit Housing Cabinets
a. The oven unit housing cabinet
dimensions must comply with
Fig. 4. (See page 7.)
b. An air gap of 50 mm minimum
must be provided at the rear of
any top or bottom cupboards
or shelves. (See Fig. 1 page
6.)
c. Ventilation must be
unobstructed, ie. from adjacent
cabinetry. This can be done by
either raising the base of the
cabinets using the adjusting
feet (or spacers) or
alternatively by providing a
slot in the cabinet plinth to the
dimensions shown overleaf.
d. The air gap at the rear allows
the warmed air to pass out of
the inner cabinet space, but
where it is intended to fit
cupboards above the oven unit
to ceiling height it is essential
that the warmed air is
exhausted through the front of
the cabinet Fig. 1. (See page 6.)
e. If an oven unit is installed
adjacent to a tall cabinet,
steam escaping from the oven
when the door is opened could
condense on, and perhaps
stain, the adjacent surface. To
prevent permanent staining,
the adjacent surface should be
made of a material that is heat
resistant and easy to clean.
Adjacent tall cabinets should
not be deeper than the oven
housing cabinet.
IMPORTANT
It is essential that the lower
cupboard is constructed in the
manner illustrated see pages 6 and
7 ie. having side, back and roof
panels so joined as to provide no
apertures which could permit
access to the oven unit when
installed .
3. Final Installation
a. Using a spirit level, check that
the housing cabinet is level
from side to side and from
front to back in its installed
position.
b. Correct any unevenness by
placing wooden packing under
the bottom of the cabinet.
Make sure that the cabinet
rests firmly on the cabinet floor
without rocking
c. Before the oven is fitted, the
cabinet must be firmly secured
to the backing wall for stability.

d. The oven unit should now be
lifted (by 2 adults) into the
cabinet and pushed fully home.
e. Finally the oven unit must be
secured to the cabinet by
means of the four pozi wash
head screws, two through each
side trim.
f. REMOVE ALL PACKING
MATERIAL FROM THE GRILL
AND OVEN INTERIOR.
