Self Cleaning Function - (This is not a cooking function)
This is not a cooking function but is only used to clean the oven.
Before starting the self cleaning cycle:
◦
Take all the accessories out of the oven (drip tray and shelves).
◦
Clean any traces of liquid which have overflowed.
◦
Close the oven door and make sure that it is closed properly.
If there are cracks or flaws on the oven door glass (inside/outside) or if the gaskets are
ruined or worn or if the door does not close perfectly, disconnect the appliance from the
electrical supply and contact the Service Centre.
◦ During the self cleaning cycle the accessible parts may become hot. Keep children away.
◦ NEVER USE THE COOKER WHEN THE OVEN IS OPERATING IN SELF CLEANING MODE.
DO NOT OPERATE THE TOP BURNERS
◦ DO NOT OPERATE THE WARMING DRAWER DURING THE SELF-CLEANING CYCLE If
during self-cleaning cycle the warming drawer control dial has been turned ON re- turn the dial to
the OFF position. Otherwise at the end of the self-cleaning cycle and after having turned the
oven selector control dial to the OFF position, the warming drawer will operate.
◦ WHEN THE SELF CLEANING MODE HAS BEEN COMPLETED: do not start immediately a new
self cleaning cycle on the oven. LET THE COOKER COOL DOWN.
◦ The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning
cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another
closed and well ventilated room.
General Information
• In this function the residual cooking greases on the inside walls of the oven cavity are pulverized by the high
temperature. The fumes produced during this process are filtered by a special catalyst in the upper part of the
appliance.
• Smells and fumes produced during self cleaning are not a cause of alarm. Adequate ventilation should however
be provided in the room where the cooker is installed, e.g. by opening a window.
• Do not wait for the oven to be very greasy before performing this cleaning. It should not be performed after every
cooking, either, but only when the level of dirt justifies it (on average 1 – 2 times a month depending on oven
