Cooking Modes - Hotpoint OSX 896LD CX S Operating Instructions Manual

Restoring the factory settings
The oven factory settings can be restored to reset all
selections made by the user (clock and customised
durations). To carry out a reset, switch off the oven, then
keep the SELECTOR knob turned while pressing the
button for 6 seconds. Once the restore procedure is
complete, a buzzer will sound. The first time the
is pressed, the oven will behave as if it is being switched
on for the first time.
Standby
This product complies with the requirements of the latest
European Directive on the limitation of power consumption
in standby mode. If no buttons are pressed for 30 minutes
and the control panel/door lock has not been activated,
the appliance automatically reverts to standby mode. The
standby mode is visualised by the high luminosity "Watch
Icon". As soon as interaction with the machine resumes,
system operation is restored.

steam. This means it is possible to achieve optimal cooking
results for all dishes.
! Every time the oven is switched on, it suggests the first
CREATION cooking mode.
! Never put objects directly on the bottom of the oven; this
will prevent the enamel coating from being damaged.
! Always place cookware on the rack(s) provided.

an automatic system within the appliance will reactivate
the cooking mode from where it was interrupted as long
as the temperature did not drop below a certain level.
Programmed cooking modes which have not yet started will
not be restored and must be reprogrammed (for example:
a cooking mode has been programmed to start at 20:30. At
19:30 a blackout occurs. When the power supply is restored,
the mode will have to be reprogrammed).

CREATION cooking modes
! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature
which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C

cooking modes include all manual programmes.
The oven controls all essential aspects of each of these
