12.5 Cleaning the oven
To keep the oven in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after allowing it to cool down.
Remove all removable parts.
• Clean the oven shelves with hot water and non-abrasive detergents, rinse and dry.
• Never use a jet of steam for cleaning the inside of the oven.
12.6 Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll; remove
stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and ordinary detergent.
12.7 Pyrolysis: automatic oven cleaning
Pyrolysis is an automatic high-temperature cleaning procedure which causes dirt to dissolve.
Before starting the automatic cleaning cycle, make sure that the oven does not contain any foods or
large spills from previous cooking operations inside.
A door interlock device means that the door cannot be opened during the procedure.
if the oven is installed underneath a hob, make sure that the burners or electric plates remain off during
the automatic cleaning cycle.
12.8 Before starting the automatic cleaning cycle
Pyrolysis may be carried out at any time of the day or night (if you wish to benefit from the lower cost of
electricity overnight).
Before proceeding, check the following:
•
only the confectionary tray, the oven tray and the roof liner may be left inside the oven
since
they will withstand the high temperatures of the pyrolysis process; all the other accessories must be
removed from inside the oven;
• remove the most obvious dirt (cleaning it by Pyrolysis would take too long);
• make sure that the oven door is firmly closed;
• when setting the cleaning cycle duration, refer to the chart below:
LIGHT DIRT
MEDIUM DIRT
HEAVY DIRT
CLEANING DURATION:
90 MIN.
120 MIN.
180 MIN.
During the first automatic cleaning cycle unpleasant smells may occur due to the normal evaporation of
oily manufacturing substances. This is an absolutely normal phenomenon which disappears after the
first cleaning cycle.
During the automatic cleaning cycle the fans make more noise because they are running at higher
speed. This is an absolutely normal function, intended to provide more effective heat dispersal. At the
end of the pyrolysis process the fans continue to run automatically for long enough to prevent
overheating of the sides of the cabinet and the front of the oven.
