Starting the oven

1.Fit the DIVIDER to the DIVIDER shelf "D" using the pin, with the arrows turned towards the rear part of the oven. After it has been fitted correctly, you will be able to read the text “OPENSPACE” on the front part of the DIVIDER frame. A buzzer will sound to confirm that the DIVIDER has been fitted correctly; it will then be possible to use the two Main and Small space compartments separately or at the same time.

￿The EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob will be disabled.

2.Select the desired cooking function by turning the MAIN SPACE FUNCTION knob.

3.The oven will begin its preheating stage. The temperature may be changed by turning the

TEMPERATURE knob. The indicator light flashes during the pre-heating stage.

4.Once the pre-heating stage is completed, the icon stops flashing (becomes fixed) and a buzzer sounds. It is now possible to introduce foodstuffs into the oven.

5.During cooking it is always possible to:

-Change the temperature by turning the TEMPERATURE knob.

-Set the cooking duration in addition to the cooking end time.

-Stop cooking by turning the MAIN SPACE FUNCTION knob to the “0” position.

6. If a blackout occurs while the oven is already in operation, an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate the cooking function from the point at which it was interrupted, as long as the temperature has not dropped below a certain level. Programmed cooking modes which have not started will not be restored and must be reprogrammed.

Cooking functions

UNIVERSAL function

All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of three racks may be used at the same time. If you are using several racks at the same time, we recommend you place the dripping pan on shelf level

1.If you are cooking on 3 levels at the same time, we recommend you place the shelves on racks 3 and 5, and the dripping pan on rack 1.

OS 897D IX/HP, OS 897D C IX/HP specifications

The Hotpoint OS 897D C IX/HP and OS 897D IX/HP are highly regarded built-in ovens that bring together a blend of style, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology. These models are designed to meet the needs of modern kitchens, characterized by their sleek design and array of practical features.

One of the standout features of both ovens is their multifunction cooking capabilities. With a range of cooking modes, including conventional, fan-assisted, and grill options, users can experiment with various cooking techniques to achieve perfect results. The inclusion of a fan-assisted mode ensures even heat distribution, allowing food to cook uniformly, whether baking cakes or roasting meats.

In terms of capacity, the Hotpoint OS 897D series offers a generous internal space, accommodating large dishes with ease. This is particularly beneficial for families or those who enjoy entertaining, as it allows for batch cooking or the preparation of multiple dishes simultaneously. The spacious interior is complemented by a telescopic shelf system, enabling easy access to hot dishes without the risk of burns.

Energy efficiency is another critical aspect of the OS 897D C IX/HP and OS 897D IX/HP models. Both ovens feature A-rated energy efficiency, which not only helps to save on electricity bills but also demonstrates a commitment to environmentally conscious cooking. The static and fan-assisted electric cooking options provide flexibility while ensuring minimal energy consumption.

Another innovative technology is the Smart Control feature. This function allows users to manage cooking times and temperatures with precision, often via a digital display and user-friendly control knobs. This level of control contributes to successful cooking outcomes while reducing the risk of overcooking or undercooking.

Cleaning is made easy with the integrated pyrolytic self-cleaning system found in both models. This feature heats the oven to very high temperatures, effectively incinerating food residues and grease, making post-cooking cleanup a breeze. The user-friendly design and removable inner door glass also facilitate manual cleaning when needed.

In summary, the Hotpoint OS 897D C IX/HP and OS 897D IX/HP ovens are excellent choices for anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen appliances. With multifunction cooking options, generous capacity, energy efficiency, smart controls, and easy cleaning technologies, these ovens combine modern features with practical functionality, making them a valuable addition to any home.
