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.
