Notes
–
The total duration of the pyrolytic self-cleaning
function comprises the cleaning time and cooling
period. The time for the relevant section of the
pyrolytic self-cleaning function counts down in the

For safety reasons, the oven door locks
automatically. During cooling, the door mechanism
is opened as soon as the temperature falls below
200 °C.
Depending on the type of soiling, white deposits may
remain on the enamel surfaces. These deposits are
residue from the food and are harmless. They do not
affect how the appliance works. If required, you can
remove these residues using lemon juice and a soft
cloth.
Cleaning accessories with pyrolytic
self-cleaning
Gaggenau baking trays and grill trays are coated with a
pyrolysis-resistant enamel. However, for an optimum
oven-cleaning result, we recommend that you remove all
accessories from the oven before the pyrolytic self-
cleaning. This is the only way to ensure that the heat is
distributed evenly.
If you want to remove burnt-in residue from your baking
tray or your grill tray, you must observe the following
information:
Notes
–
Remove any coarse dirt, meat juices and food
residue before the pyrolytic self-cleaning. Food
residues, grease or meat juices may catch fire
during the pyrolytic self-cleaning.
–
In each case, only slide one baking tray or grill tray
into the lowest shelf in the oven.
–
Slide the baking tray or grill tray in as far as it will
go.
–
Wire rack, rotisserie spit, metal roasting dish,
baking stone, core temperature probe or other
accessories must not be cleaned in pyrolytic self-
cleaning mode.
–
Grill trays that have stainless steel bushes may
become discoloured during pyrolytic self-cleaning.
This has no effect on usability.
