Pyrolytic cleaning of the
oven interior
Instead of cleaning the oven manually
you can run the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme.
During pyrolytic cleaning the oven
interior is heated up to over 400°C. Any
residual soiling is broken down and
reduced to ash by the high
temperatures.
This oven has three levels of pyrolytic
cleaning, each with a different duration.
Select:
– Level 1 for light soiling
– Level 2 for heavier soiling
– Level 3 for very heavy soiling
The oven door locks automatically as
soon as the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme starts. It cannot be opened
until after the programme has finished.
The timer can be used to delay the start
of pyrolytic cleaning, for instance to
make use of cheaper electricity tariffs.
At the end of pyrolytic cleaning any
residues such as ash from the pyrolytic
process can be easily wiped away.
Setting up for pyrolytic cleaning
Remove all accessories as well as
the runners and any extra
accessories such as FlexiClip
runners from the oven interior before
starting the Pyrolytic cleaning
programme.
The high temperatures needed for
pyrolysis will damage them.
Take the side runners out (see
"Cleaning and care – Removing the
side runners with FlexiClip runners"")
and remove any other accessories
from the oven cavity.
Coarse soiling in the oven
compartment can cause an
accumulation of smoke which can
lead to the pyrolytic cleaning
programme switching off.
Burnt on residues can leave
discolouration or matt areas on
enamelled surfaces.
Before running the pyrolytic cleaning
programme, remove coarse soiling
from the oven compartment and
loosen any burnt on residues with a
scraper suitable for use on glass.
