USING THE SELF CLEAN FUNCTION
●
During the pyrolytic Self Clean cycle the extremely high temperature burns off and
breaks down grime and grease deposits. All that is left is a small amount of grey ash that
you can easily remove.
●
There is a choice of Self Clean cycles:
●
Self Clean (3 hours) (for normal soiling).
●
Light Self Clean (2 hours) (suitable for a light or localised soiling).
IMPORTANT!
●
You must clean the inside glass door panel BEFORE starting a self-clean cycle. Failure
to do this may result in permanent staining or marking of the door glass.
●
Do not use oven cleaners, any degreasing cleaners, or oven liners.
●
Make sure you remove the side racks, oven shelves and trays, rotisserie and all other
bakeware and utensils from the oven before starting a Self Clean cycle. If left in
the oven, they will become permanently discoloured or damaged; items made from
combustible materials (eg wood, fabric, plastic) may even catch fire.
●
Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts.
●
Make sure the room is well ventilated.
●
Before starting a Self Clean cycle, make sure you move any pet birds to another, closed
and well-ventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during a Self Clean cycle, and may die if left in the same room as the oven during
such a cycle.
●
During a Self Clean cycle, the oven reaches higher temperatures than it does for
cooking. Under such conditions, the surfaces may get hotter than usual and children
should be kept away.
●
The oven door will be locked during the Self Clean cycle (approximately 3 hours).
●
If there are cracks or flaws on any of the oven door glass panes, if the oven seal is
damaged or worn, or if the door does not close properly, do not start a Self Clean
cycle. Call your Authorised Repairer or Customer Care.
To start a Self Clean cycle
1 Remove oven shelves, side racks and all
other accessories, bakeware, and
utensils.
●
Wipe up any spills. Failure to do so
may discolour the oven surfaces.
●
Check the inner glass pane of the
oven door (D). If it has soiling on it
(eg stains from greasy splatter), you
will need to clean it manually before
starting a Self Clean cycle. For
instructions, see ‘Care and cleaning’.
IMPORTANT!
If soiling is left on the glass, it will
become burnt on during the Self
Clean cycle, making it very difficult to
remove.
2 Close the oven door firmly.
