Hotpoint Ventilation Hood HDI90X User Manual

Instructions for Installation and Use  
Electric Hood  
Model HDI90X  
 
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.  
• 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.  
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 been  
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.

INSTALLATION  
Drilling the Ceiling/shelf and fixing the frame  
DRILLING THE CEILING / SUPPORT SHELF  
• Use a plumb line to mark the centre of the hob on the ceiling/support shelf.  
• Place the drilling template 21 provided on the ceiling/support shelf, making sure that the template  
is in the correct position by lining up the axes of the template with those of the hob.  
• Mark the centres of the holes in the template.  
• Drill the holes at the points marked:  
For concrete ceilings, drill for plugs appropriate to the screw size.  
For hollow brick ceilings with wall thickness of 20mm: drill ø 10mm.  
For wooden beam ceilings, drill according to the wood screws to be used.  
For wooden shelf, drill ø 7mm.  
For the power supply cable feed, drill ø 10mm.  
For the air outlet (Ducted version), drill according to the diameter of the external air exhaust  
duct connection.

INSTALLATION  
FIXING THE FRAME  
Before fixing, seperate the Upper section 2.1 and  
the Lower section 2.2 from the frame by unscrewing  
the screws 12c. Then seperate the two sections of  
the frame (Upper and Lower) by unscrewing the 8  
side screws.  
Fix the Fixing Part of the Upper Chimney 26 to the  
hanging kit using the 2 screws 12w (M3 x 8).  
Upper Frame  
• Align the power supply cable feed hole.  
• Fix the upper frame to the ceiling of shelf using:  
For concrete ceilings, use the appropriate plugs for the screw size (not provided).  
For hollow brick ceilings of wall thickness of approximately 20mm: use 4 plugs 11 and 4  
screws 12h (5.2 x 70), provided.  
For wooden beam ceilings, use 4 wood srews (not provided).  
For wooden shelf, use 4 screws 12g (M6 x 80) with washers 22 and nuts 23, provided.  
Lower Frame  
• Fix the lower frame using the 8 previously removed screws, adjusting the length according to the  
installation height (hood body lower fixing surface must be at least 710mm from the hob).  
• For the recirculation version, turn the frame in the direction chosen for the recirculated air outlet.  
• The frame mounting must be secure to withstand the weight of the hood and any stresses caused  
by the occassional side thrust applied to the device. On completion, check that the base is stable,  
even if the frame is subjected to bending.  
• In all cases where the ceiling is not strong enough at the suspension point, the installer must  
provide strengthening, using suitable plates and backing pieces anchored to the structurally sound  
parts.

DUCTED VERSION AIR EXHAUST SYSTEM  
When installing the ducted version, connect the  
hood to the chimney using either a flexible or  
rigid pipe ø 150 or 120 mm, the choice of which  
is left to the installer.  
• To install a ø 120 mm air exhaust connection,  
insert the reducer flange 9 on the hood body  
outlet.  
• Fix the pipe in position using the pipe clamps  
25 provided.  
• Remove any activated charcoal filters.  
RECIRCULATION VERSION AIR OUTLET  
• Push the connection 15 onto the air outlet.  
• Insert the connection extension pieces laterally  
14 in connection 15.  
• Place the upper chimney section and fix the

Chimney using the 2 screws 12c (2.9 x 9.5)  
provided.  
• Similarly, position the lower chimney section  
and fix the lower part to the frame using the 2  
screws 12c (2.9 x 9.5) provided.  
Recirculation version  
• Make sure that the outlet of the extension pieces  
14.1 is horizontally and vertically aligned with  
the chimney outlets.  
• If this is not the case, remove the lower chimney  
section and adjust the position by either  
reversing the connection pieces 14.1 or by cutting  
the hood body extension 14 along one of the  
thinner section channels denoting the pre-fixed  
lengths, then reassemble as described previously.  
• Fit the directional grids 8a-8b in their housings  
making sure that the directional symbols are  
towards the top. Also make sure that they are  
correctly inserted in the connection extension  
pieces 14.1.

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.
