Pyrolytic cleaning (self-cleaning)
During self-cleaning, the oven heats up to 485°C.
Thus, remainders from roasting, grilling or baking are
burnt up and all you have to do is wipe the ash out of
the interior.
Pyrolytic cleaning takes three hours. You can move the
pyrolytic cleaning switch-off time (for example, if you
would like it to run at night).
m
Risk of fire!
Loose food residues, grease and meat juices may
catch fire during pyrolytic cleaning. Remove coarse
dirt from the cooking compartment and from the
accessories before every pyrolytic cleaning cycle.
m
Risk of fire!
The appliance will become very hot on the outside
during the pyrolytic cleaning cycle. Never hang
combustible objects, e.g. tea towels, on the door
handle. Do not place anything against the front of the
oven. Keep children at a safe distance.
m
Risk of serious damage to health!
The appliance will become very hot during the
pyrolytic cleaning cycle. The non-stick coating on
baking trays and tins is destroyed and noxious gases
are released. Never let non-stick baking trays and tins
go through the pyrolytic cleaning cycle. Only
enamelled accessories may be cleaned at the same
time.
Preparing pyrolytic self-cleaning
Caution!
Fire risk! Loose food remainders, fat and roast juice
can catch fire. Wipe out the oven interior with a moist
cloth.
▯
Remove coarse soiling and food remainders from
the oven.
▯
Clean the door seals manually, the inside of the
door and the glass pane because the pyrolytic
cleaning process does not clean these parts.
▯
Remove all loose interior parts from the oven
interior. The slide-in racks are pyrolysis-proof.
There must be no objects left in the interior.
▯
Close the oven door.

Cleaning accessories with pyrolytic
self-cleaning
Gaggenau baking trays and grill trays are coated with
pyrolysis-proof enamel. To arrive at an optimum
cleaning result, you are nevertheless advised to
remove all accessories from the oven before the
pyrolytic cleaning process. Only this will ensure
optimum heat distribution.
If you would like to remove burnt-in residues from your
baking tray or your grill tray with pyrolytic self-
cleaning, it is imperative that you observe the
following notes:
Notes
‒
Remove extreme soiling, roast juice and food
remainders before pyrolytic self-cleaning. Food
remainders, grease or roast juice can catch fire
during pyrolytic self-cleaning.
‒
Only ever insert one baking tray or one grill tray in
the lowest shelf in the oven.
‒
Insert the baking tray or the grill tray fully.
‒
The wire rack, rotisserie spit, cast roaster, baking
stone, core temperature probe or other
accessories must not be cleaned by pyrolytic self-
cleaning.
