Hotpoint Ventilation Hood HD90X User Manual

Instructions for Installation and Use  
Electric Hood  
Model HD90X  
 
RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS  
Using your new Cooker Hood is very simple. Nevertheless, to get the best results it is important  
that you read this manual thoroughly before installing and using your appliance for the first time.  
INSTALLATION  
• All installation and repairs should be carried out by a qualified  
technician in accordance to regulations in force.  
• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damage resulting  
from incorrect or improper installation.  
• After having removed the packaging, check the condition of the  
appliance, if in any doubt, do not use and contact Hotpoint Service  
(see Key Contacts, back page).  
• The minimum safety distance between the hob and the extractor  
hood is 650 mm.  
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the  
rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.  
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply  
guarantees adequate earthing.  
• Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum  
diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.  
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying  
combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).  
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances  
(e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of ventilation  
must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of  
exhaust gas. The kitchen must have a suitable vent to the outside  
of the building, so that clear fresh air can circulate through the  
kitchen.  
650 mm min.  
USE  
• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use  
to eliminate kitchen smells.  
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has ben  
designed.  
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in  
operation.  
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan  
only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.  
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use:  
overheated oil can burst into flames.  
• When frying, never leave the pan unattended.  
• The hood should not be used by children or persons not instructed  
in its correct use.  
MAINTENANCE  
• Switch off and unplug the appliance from the mains supply before  
carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.  
• Clean regularly (see Care and Cleaning section), build up of dirt  
and grease could cause a fire hazard.

Electrical Connection  
WARNING: This appliance MUST be earthed. Connect to a 230 - 240V A.C. Supply only.  
• Connection to the electricity supply should be made via a properly earthed, readily accessible  
wall socket which is adjacent to and not more than 1.25m away from the appliance and capable of  
electrical isolation.  
Should this plug not fit the socket outlet in your home it should be cut off and replaced with a  
suitable plug as outlined below.  
Note: The removed plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly  
disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with the  
obvious consequent danger.  
IF THE FITTED PLUG IS REMOVED  
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected as below, to a three pin plug of not less than 13  
amp capacity. If a B.S.1363 fused plug is used, it must be fitted with a 3amp fuse which is approved  
to B.S.1362.  
IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance with  
the following code:  
GREEN and YELLOW - EARTH  
BLUE - NEUTRAL  
BROWN - LIVE  
3amp FUSE  
CORD CLAMP  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured  
markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:- The wire which is green and  
yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth  
symbol or coloured green or green and yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected  
to the terminal which is marked with the N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown  
must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. When wiring the  
plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the  
mains lead clamp on the plug. As the appliance must be earthed, DO NOT use 2-pin socket outlets,  
if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.  
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a  
2
qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size ie. 0.75mm  
cross sectional area and temperature rating of 85°C eg. heat resisting PVC.  
IF A MOULDED PLUG IS FITTED  
In the event of replacing a fuse in the plug supplied a 3amp ASTA approved fuse to B.S.1362 must  
be fitted.  
Note: The fuse cover must be refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse cover  
the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been obtained and fitted. A new fuse  
cover can be obtained from your local Electrical Retailer. The colour of the correct replacement fuse  
cover is that of the coloured marks or inserts in the base of the plug.

GREASE FILTERS: CLEANING METAL SELF- SUPPORTING GREASE FILTERS  
The filters must be cleaned every 2 months of  
operation, or more frequently with heavy usage,  
and can be washed in a dishwasher.  
• Remove the filters one at a time by pushing  
them towards the back and pulling down at the  
same time.  
• Wash the filters, taking care not to bend them.  
Allow them to dry before refitting.  
• When refitting the filters, make sure that the  
handle is visible on the outside.  
CHARCOAL FILTER: REPLACING THE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL FILTER  
This filter is not washable and must be replaced  
after every 4 months of operation, or more  
frequently with heavy usage.  
• Remove the metal grease filters.  
• Remove the saturated activated carbon filter by  
releasing the fixing hooks.  
• Dispose of the carbon filter.  
• Fit the new filter by hooking it into its housing

LIGHT REPLACEMENT  
20W halogen bulb.

sure that the two pins are properly inserted in  
the bulb holder socket holes.  
• Replace the support, fixing it in place with the  
two screws removed as above.  
CLEANING  
• Clean with a sponge soaked in warm water and  
a sodium bicarbonate solution, which is among  
other things a good disinfectant. If you do not  
have any, you can use a neutral soap.  
• DO NOT use abrasive detergents, bleach or  
detergents using ammonia. NEVER use solvent  
based products.  
Failure to carry out the basic standards of cleaning and replacement of the filters could cause a fire  
risk. Therefore you must observe these instructions.
