Frequently Asked Questions - HOP114/1 X HOOVER

How do I install the oven correctly?

Ensure the oven is placed in a built-in cabinet with proper ventilation. Connect to a 220-240V outlet and avoid using extension cords. Refer to the installation diagram in the manual.

What type of cookware can I use?

Use oven-safe materials like glass, ceramic, metal, or silicone. Avoid plastic or wooden utensils. For grill functions, use metal grills or trays.

How do I clean the catalytic liners?

Catalytic liners self-clean when heated. Simply wipe off residues after a high-temperature cycle. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.

Why is the oven not heating?

Check the power connection and fuse. Ensure the timer is set correctly. If the problem persists, the heating element or thermostat may need replacement.

How do I use the defrost function?

Place frozen food on a tray in the oven. Select the defrost function and set a low temperature (30-40°C). The fan circulates air to thaw evenly without cooking.

Can I use aluminium foil in the oven?

Yes, but avoid covering the entire rack or blocking air circulation. Do not let foil touch the heating elements to prevent fire hazard.

How do I replace the oven light?

Disconnect power, remove the glass cover, and replace with a 25W/300°C halogen bulb. Press the cover back securely. Reconnect power.

What is the child lock and how to activate it?

The child lock prevents accidental operation. Press and hold the lock button for 3 seconds until the indicator lights up. Repeat to deactivate.

How do I set the timer for delayed cooking?

Turn the timer knob to the desired cooking duration. The oven will start immediately. For delayed start, set the end time using the end cook timer if available.

Why does the cooling fan run after cooking?

This is normal. The fan continues to run until internal temperatures drop to safe levels to protect adjacent cabinets.

AVVERTENZE GENERALI

Diagram of a ceiling structure with ventilation ducts and airflow direction arrows (no text or symbols)

Thank you for choosing one of our products. To get the most out of your oven we recommend that you:

• Read the notes in this manual carefully: they contain important instructions on how to install, use and service this oven safely.
• Keep this booklet in a safe place for easy, future reference.
• All accessible parts are hot when the appliance is in operation, take care to not touch these elements.

When the oven is first switched on it may give out acrid smelling fumes. This is because the bonding agent for insulating panels around the oven has been heated up for the first time.

This is a completely normal, if it does occur you merely have to wait for the fumes to clear before putting the food into the oven.

An oven by its very nature becomes very hot. Especially the glass of the oven door.

Do not allow children to go near the oven when it is hot, especially when the grill is on.

A specially designed protector shield (some models only) which reduces considerably the surface temperature of the oven door can be obtained through our service organization. This shield is recommended for households with young children.

DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE

- The parts of this appliance that may come into contact with foodstuffs comply with the provisions of EEC Directive 89/109.

CE Appliance complies with European Directives 73/23/EEC and 89/336/EEC, replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC, and subsequent amendments.

When you have unpacked the oven, make sure that it has not been damaged in any way. If you have any doubts at all, do not use it: contact a professionally qualified person. Keep packing materials such as plastic bags, polystyrene, or nails out of the reach of children because they are dangerous for children.

SAFETY HINTS

• The oven must be used only for the purpose for which it was designed: it must only be used for cooking food. Any other use, e.g. as a form of heating, is an improper use of the oven and is therefore dangerous.
• The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper, incorrect or unreasonable use. When using any electrical appliance you must follow a few basic rules.
• Do not pull on the power cable to remove the plug from the socket.
• Do not touch the oven with wet or damp hands or feet.
• Do not use the oven unless you are wearing something on your feet.
• Do not allow children or irresponsible people to use the oven unless they are carefully supervised.
• It is not generally a good idea to use adapters, multiple sockets for several plugs and cable extensions.
• If the oven breaks down or develops a fault switch it off at the mains and do not touch it.
• If the cable is at all damaged it must be replaced promptly. When replacing the cable, follow these instructions. Remove the power cable and replace it with one of the HO5RR-F, H05VV-F, H05V2V2-F type. The cable must be able to bear the electrical current required by the oven. Cable replacement must be carried out by properly qualified technicians. The earthing cable (yellow-green) must be 10 mm longer than the power cable.

Use only an approved service centre for repairs and ensure that only original parts are used. If the above instructions are not adhered to the manufacturers cannot guarantee the safety of the oven.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

INSTALLATION

Installation is the customer's responsibility. The manufacturers have no obligation to carry this out. If the assistance of the manufacturer is required to rectify faults arising from incorrect installation, this assistance is not covered by the guarantee. The installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel must be followed. Incorrect installation may cause harm or injury to people, animals or belongings. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for such harm or injury.

FITTING THE OVEN INTO THE KITCHEN UNIT

Fit the oven into the space provided in the kitchen unit; it may be fitted underneath a work top or into an upright cupboard. Fix the oven in position by screwing into place, using the four fixing holes in the frame.

To locate the fixing holes, open the oven door and look inside. To allow adequate ventilation, the measurements and distances indicated in the diagram on last page must be adhered to when fixing the oven.

Note: For ovens that are combined with a hob unit the instructions contained in the manual for the hob unit must be followed.

IMPORTANT

If the oven is to work properly, the kitchen housing must be suitable. The panels of the kitchen unit that are next to the oven must be made of a heat resistant material. Ensure that the glues of units made of veneered wood can withstand temperatures of at least 120 °C. Plastics or glues that cannot withstand such temperatures will melt and deform the unit. Once the oven has been lodged inside the unit, the electrical parts must be completely insulated. This is a legal safety requirement. All guards must be firmly fixed into place so that it is impossible to remove them without using special tools.

Remove the back of the kitchen unit to ensure an adequate current of air circulates around the oven. The hob must have a rear gap of at least 45 mm.

CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Plug into the power supply. Ensure first that there is a third contact that acts as earthing for the oven. The oven must be properly earthed.

If the model of oven is not fitted with a plug, fit a standard plug to the power cable. It must be able to bear the power supply indicated on the specifications plate. The earthing cable is yellow-green. The plug must be fitted by a properly qualified person. If the socket and the plug are incompatible the socket must be changed by a properly qualified person. A properly qualified person must also ensure that the power cables can carry the current required to operate the oven.

An ON/OFF switch with a minimum distance of 3 mm between contacts may also be connected to the power supply. The connections must take account of the current supplied and must comply with current legal requirements. The yellow-green earthing cable must not be governed by the ON/OFF switch. The socket or the ON/OFF switch used for connecting to the power supply must be easily accessible when the oven has been installed. Important: During installation, position the power cable in such a way that it will not be subjected to temperatures of above 50°C at any point.

The oven complies with safety standards set by the regulatory bodies. The oven is safe to use only if it has been adequately earthed in compliance with current legal requirements on wiring safety. You must ensure that the oven has been adequately earthed.

The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any harm or injury to persons, animals or belongings caused by failure to properly earth the oven.

WARNING: the voltage and the supply frequency are showed on the rating plate (fig. on last page).

The cabling and wiring system must be able to bear the maximum electric power required by the oven. This is indicated on the specifications plate.

If you are in any doubt at all, use the services of a professionally qualified person.

USEFUL TIPS

SHELF SAFETY SYSTEM

Diagram of a ceiling structure with grid lines and an arrow indicating direction (no text or symbols)

The oven features a new shelf safety system.

This allows you to pull out the oven shelves when inspecting the food without danger of food spillages or shelves falling accidentally out of the oven. To remove the shelves pull out and lift.

GRILLING

Grilling makes it possible to give food a rich brown colour quickly. For browning we recommend that you insert the grill onto the fourth level, depending on the proportions of the food (see fig. page 11).

Almost all food can be cooked under the grill except for very lean game and meat rolls.

Meat and fish that are going to be grilled should first be lightly doused with oil.

COOKING TIME

For recommended cooking times and temperatures the first time you use the oven, refer to the tables on pages 11, 12. You may then wish to vary these times and settings in the light of your own experience.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Never use a steam or high pressure spray to clean the appliance. Never use abrasive cleaners, wire wool or sharp objects to clean the glass oven door. Clean the stainless steel and enamelled surfaces with warm, soapy water or with suitable brand products. On no account use abrasive powders that may damage surfaces and ruin the oven's appearance. It is very important to clean the oven each time that it is used. Melted fat is deposited on the sides of the oven during cooking. The next time the oven is used this fat could cause unpleasant odours and might even jeopardise the success of the cooking. Use hot water and detergent to clean; rinse out thoroughly. To make this chore unnecessary all models can be lined with catalytic self-cleaning panels: these are supplied as an optional extra (see the section SELF-CLEANING OVEN WITH CATALYTIC LINING).

Use detergents and abrasive metal pads like «brillo pads» for the stainless steel grills.

The glass surfaces as the top, oven door and warming compartment door must be cleaned when they are cold. Damage that occurs to them because this rule was not adhered to are not covered by the guarantee.

To replace the interior light: switch off the mains power supply and unscrew bulb. Replace with an identical bulb that can withstand very high temperatures.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN WITH CATALYTIC

Special self-cleaning panels covered in a micro-porous coating are available as optional extras for all models. If they are fitted, the oven no longer needs to be cleaned by hand. The fat that is splattered onto the sides of the oven during roasting is eliminated by the microporous coating which breaks the fat down by catalysis and transforms it into gas.

Excessive splattering may nevertheless block the pores and therefore hinder self-cleaning. The self-cleaning capacity may be restored by switching on the empty oven to maximum for about 10-20 minutes.

Do not use abrasive products, metal cleaning wads, sharp objects, rough cloths, or chemical products and detergents that may permanently damage the catalytic lining.

It is a good idea to use deep roasting trays to roast fatty foods such as joints of meat etc. and to put a tray underneath the grill to catch surplus fat.

If the walls of the oven are so thickly coated in grease that the catalytic lining is no longer effective remove surplus grease with a soft cloth or sponge soaked in hot water.

The lining must be porous for self-cleaning to be effective.

N.B.: All catalytic linings currently on the market have a working life of about 300 hours. They should therefore be replaced after about 300 hours.

SERVICE CENTRE

Before calling the Service Centre

If the oven is not working, we recommend that:

- you check that the oven is properly plugged into the power supply.

If the cause of the fault cannot be detected:

disconnect the oven from the mains, do not touch the oven and call the after sales service.

Before calling the Service Centre remember to make a note of the serial number on the serial number specifications plate (see fig. on last page).
