If something still
goes wrong ...
.... don't panic
Just quickly check these points bifore calling a
Hotpoint engineer:
1. Check that the mains supply is switched on.
2. Check that the Timer is not flashing or, the
incorrect 'Time of Day' is showing:
- The power supply has been interrupted but has
now come back on again. Reset the Timer to the
correct 'Time of Day' as stated in the Timer
instructions. Oven back to Manual operation.
3. If using the Grill in the Top Oven make sure that
the Top Oven control is set to 'O' Off.

Parts
Please remember your new appliance is a complex
piece of equipment.
'DIY' repairs or unqualified and untrained service
people may put you in danger, could damage the
appliance and might mean you lose cover under
Hotpoint's Parts Guarantee.
If you do experience a problem with the appliance
don't take risks; call in Hotpoint's own Service
Engineer (see back page).
Our spare parts are designed exclusively to fit only
Hotpoint appliances. Do not use them for any other
purpose as you may create a safety hazard.
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
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.
• Whenever possible, avoid pre-heating the oven
and always try to fill it. Open the oven door as little
as possible because heat is lost every time it is
opened. To save a substantial amount of energy,
simply switch off the oven 5 to 10 minutes before the
end of your planned cooking time and use the heat
the oven continues to generate.
• Keep gaskets clean and tidy to prevent any door
energy losses
• If you have a timed tariff electricity contract, the “delay
cooking” option will make it easier to save money by
moving operation to cheaper time periods.
• The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate.
If it is smaller, precious energy will be wasted and
pots that boil over leave encrusted remains that can
be difficult to remove.
• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-fitting
lids and use as little water as possible. Cooking with
the lid off will greatly increase energy consumption
• Use purely flat pots and pans
• If you are cooking something that takes a long time,
it's worth using a pressure cooker, which is twice as
fast and saves a third of the energy.
