4. Oven cleaning and maintenance
4.1 General notes on cleaning
The lifecycle of the appliance can be extended through regular cleaning.
Wait for the oven to cool before carrying out manual cleaning operations.
Never use abrasive detergents, steel wool or sharp objects for cleaning, so
as to not irreparably damage the enamelled parts. Use only water, soap or
bleach-based detergents (ammonia).
GLASS PARTS
It is advisable to clean the glass window with absorbent kitchen towel after
every use of the oven. To remove more obstinate stains, you can use a
detergent-soaked sponge, well wrung out, and then rinse with water.
OVEN WINDOW SEAL
If dirty, the seal can be cleaned with a slightly damp sponge.
ACCESSORIES
Clean accessories with a wet, soapy sponge before rinsing and drying them:
avoid using abrasive detergents.
DRIP PAN
After using the grill, remove the pan from the oven. Pour the hot fat into a
container and wash the pan in hot water, using a sponge and washing-up
liquid.
If greasy residues remain, immerse the pan in water and detergent.
Alternatively, you can wash the pan in the dishwasher or use a commercial
oven detergent. Never put a dirty pan back into the oven.

4.2 Pyrolysis
The oven is equipped with a pyrolyser cleaning system, which destroys food
residues at high temperature. The operation is carried out automatically by
means of the programmer. The resulting fumes are rendered “clean” by
passing over a Pyrolyser wich starts as soon as cooking begins. As very high
temperatures are required by the Pyrolyser, the oven door is fitted with a
safety lock. The pyrolyser can be stopped at any time. The door cannot be
opened until the safety lock is displayed.
NOTE :
If a hob has been fitted above the oven, never use the gas burners or
the electric hot-plates while the Pyrolyser is working, this will prevent the
hob from overheating.
TWO PYROLYTIC CYCLE are pre-set:
ECO PYROCLEAN :
Cleans a moderately stained oven. Operates for a period
of 90 minutes.
SUPER PYROCLEAN :
Cleans a heavily stained oven. Operates for a period of
120 minutes.
Never use commercially available cleaning products on a Pyrolytic oven!
Tip : Carrying out Pyrolytic cleaning immediately after cooking allows you to
take advantage of residual heat, thus saving energy.
Before executing a pyrolytic cycle:
• Remove all the accessories from the oven because they are not able to
tolerate the high temperatures used during the pyrolytic cleaning cycle ;
in particular removing grids, side racks and the telescopic guides (refer to
the chapter REMOVING GRIDS AND SIDE RACKS) . In ovens with meat
probe it is necessary, before making the cleaning cycle , close the hole
with the nut provided.
• Remove any large spillages or stains as it would take too long to destroy
them. Also excessively large amounts of grease could ignite when
subject to the very high temperatures of the Pyrolytic cycle.
• Close the oven door.
• Excess spillage must be removed before cleaning.
• Clean the oven door;
• Remove large or coarse food residues from the inside of the oven using
a damp sponge. Do not use detergents;
• Remove all accessories and the sliding rack kit (where present);
• Do not place tea towels.
Using the pyrolitic cycle:
1- Rotate the function selector to the position " ". On the display,
appears the indication " ECO " or " SUP ". The preset time is 90 min, this can
be varied from 90 min (Eco mode) to 120 min (Sup mode) via the
programmer (setting button " + " or " - "). If the oven is very dirty, it is
recommend o increase the time to 120 min, if the oven is moderately dirty
reduce the cleaning cycle time to 90 min.
2- It is possible to defer the start time of the pyroclean cycle by changing the
END time via the programmer.
3- After few minutes, when the oven reaches a high temperature, the door
locks automatically. The pyroclean cycle can be stopped at any time by
turning the function selector back to '0' (the word OFF will be displayed for
3 seconds).
4- Once the pyroclean cycle is finished, the pyrolysis will switch off
automatically. On the display appears the indication "END" until the door is
locked then "0--n".
5- You can turn the function selector back to " 0 " but if the temperaure is
still high, the "0--n " indication appears to inform that the door is locked.
Use of the pyrolytic cycle in Touch Control ovens:
1- Rotate the function selector into position pyrolisys. The display will show
either "ECO" or "SUP“
2- The pre-set time is 90 minutes but it can be varied from 90 min. (Eco
mode) to 120 min. (Sup mode) using the programmer (" +" or "-" key). If the
oven is very dirty, the time should be increased to 120 min., while if the
oven is only a slightly dirty, reduce the cleaning cycle to 90 min.
