Removing self-cleaning panels and rack/
tray support frames (on some models
only)
Removing the self-cleaning panels and the
rack/tray support frames enables the sides
to be cleaned more easily.
Removing the rack/tray support frames:
1. Pull the frame towards the inside of the
oven cavity to unhook it from its
groove
A .
2. Then slide it out of the seats on the
back B .
3. When cleaning is complete, repeat the
above procedures to replace the rack/
tray support frames.
Regeneration of the self-cleaning panels
(catalysis cycle) (on some models only)
The regeneration cycle of the self-cleaning
panels is a cleaning method through
heating suitable for removing small grease
residues, not sugar-based ones.
1. First, clean the base and the upper
guard (if present) using a microfibre
cloth soaked in water and neutral
washing up liquid. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Set a regeneration cycle by selecting a
fan-assisted function at the maximum
temperature for one hour.
3. If the panels are particularly dirty after
the regeneration cycle, remove them
and wash them with neutral washing up
liquid. Rinse and dry them.
4. Put the panels back in the oven and set
a fan-assisted function at a temperature
of 180°C for one hour, in order to
ensure that they are thoroughly dry.
We recommend carrying out the
self-cleaning panel regeneration
cycle every 15 days.
