Safety
In fast clean mode, the temperature inside the oven reaches
500°, which is necessary for the destruction of food and fat
residue, as illustrated below.
Given this high temperature, your oven is fitted with some
safety devices:
•
the oven door is locked automatically as soon as
the temperature reaches 125°C in order to avoid risks
of burns.
•
the heating elements are no longer powered if an
anomaly occurs.
Note:
1. Despite the high temperatures inside the oven during the
pyrolytic self-cleaning process, the external surfaces of the
appliance remain luke warm, thanks to:
- a reinforced insulation of the oven compartment.
- a fan that ensures the circulation of air to cool down
the
oven wall panels.
2. When looking through the oven door, you may notice some
particles that light up when they are destroyed by pyrolysis
upon contact with the heating elements: this is simply
spontaneous combustion, it is extremely normal and
without danger.
Precautions to be taken before performing the
fast clean process
1- Try to remove the larger food residue from inside the
oven using a wet sponge. We highly advise against the use
of detergents or all other products recommended for cleaning
ovens.
2- Remove all the accessories from the oven: they are
not designed to withstand such high temperatures. What's
more, some of these accessories would alter the result of
the pyrolytic self-cleaning process and obstruct the circulation
of heat inside the oven. The accessories can easily be
cleaned like everyday crockery and are dishwasher-proof.
3- Don't leave any tea towels on the oven door handle.
Warning: the oven surfaces may get hot during the fast
clean process: keep children well away.
Fast clean
How to start the cleaning process
•
Take all the accessories out of the oven. Remove the
toughest grease and food spots and especially all
substantial overflows in order to avoid the creation of
flames or smoke.
•
Shut the oven door.
•
Turn the function selector to
•
Programme it..You can choose between:
- an immediate start
- a delayed start
•
The pyrolytic self-cleaning process takes approximately
90 minutes.
What happens during the fast clean process?
When the temperature reaches 325°C, the oven door is
automatically locked: the letter "P" comes up on the display,
along with the remaining process time, as it decreases.
The oven door stays locked for as long as the temperature
inside the oven remains high.
What happens at the end of the fast clean
cycle?
When the process is over, "P.0.00" comes up on the display.
To be able to open the oven door, you will have to:
- wait for the temperature inside the oven to have dropped to
an acceptable level.
- have to set the function control back to O.
You will notice some white dust deposits on the bottom and
sides of the oven, remove them with a damp sponge when
the oven has cooled down completely.
If on the other hand you want to take advantage of the heat
accumulated during the process to start cooking, the dust
can stay where it is: it is completely harmless and will not
affect your food.
