What is cleaning with pyrolysis?
On the pyrolysis setting your oven cleans itself through the elimination at high temperature of staining caused by splashing or
spillages.
The smoke and odours produced are destroyed by being passed through a catalyser unit.
As a safety measure, a pyrolysis cycle can only run when the door has been locked automatically.
As soon as the temperature inside the oven exceeds the usual cooking temperatures, it is impossible to unlock the door, even by tur-
ning the “COOK” selector to OFF.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Before starting a cleaning cycle, the following essential precautions must be taken:
- Remove all accessories from the oven (shelves, multi-purpose dripping pan, etc.).
- Remove the remains of any serious spillages which may have occurred, to prevent any risk of fire or smoke.
Note:
During a pyrolysis cycle it is not advisable to use the cooking zones on a hob located above the oven.
In fact, for safety reasons, a temperature limiter will stop the pyrolysis cycle and an engineer will be required to reset the limi-
ter.
Following a pyrolysis cycle, when the oven door is opened, some whitish residue may be noticed on the walls. Once the oven has
completely cooled, simply wipe them off with a damp sponge.
During this operation the front of the oven becomes hotter than during cooking:
keep young children away.
Running a pyrolysis cycle immediately
To save electricity and take advantage of the heat already accumulated in the oven, it is preferable to start a pyrolysis cycle straight
after cooking.
●
●
Set the “COOK FUNCTION SELECTOR” knob at “Pyrolysis”.
●
●
The display shows you:
- The time at which your oven will be available.
A pyrolysis cycle last for 2 hours and 30 minutes (this period cannot be altered). This time takes into account the cooling period until the door is unlocked.
- The
indicates that you have started a pyrolysis cycle.
●
●
During a pyrolysis cycle:
- A key
appears on the display and shows you that the door is locked.
When the key
is no longer displayed, the door can be opened.
●
●
At the end of the pyrolysis cycle:
- Turn the “COOK FUNCTION SELECTOR” knob back to OFF
.
Running a delayed pyrolysis cycle
●
●
Set the “COOK FUNCTION SELECTOR” knob at “Pyrolysis” .
●
●
Set the start time for the pyrolysis cycle.
By pressing the + or - “
” buttons you can change the time the pyrolysis cycle will end; so you simply have to take account of the
duration (2 hours and 30 minutes) of the cycle to work out the start time of your pyrolysis.
