3. Maintenance and cleaning

3.1 Cleaning the accessories. The accesso-
ries are dishwasher-safe. To wash them up
by hand, use ordinary detergent. Leave
them to soak for easier cleaning.
Non-pyrolytic ovens
3.2 Smooth-walls models. Clean the oven
while it is warm, wiping the walls with a cloth
soaked in hot soapy water.
3.3 Self-cleaning rough-walls models. On
these models, the rear plate and side panels
are covered with a self-cleaning enamel that
removes the grease while the oven is func-
tioning. The side panels are reversible, dou-
bling the lifetime of the coating.
If the panels are not performing the self-
cleaning process sufficiently, they will need
regenerating. To do this, remove all the ac-
cessories and utensils from the inside of the
oven. Thoroughly clean the oven surfaces
that are not self-cleaning. Select the
tion. Set a temperature of 250 ºC and set the
time between 30 and 60 minutes, depending
on how dirty the oven is.
When the cleaning program ends and the
oven has cooled down, wipe the self-cleaning
elements with a damp sponge. They will then
be totally functional again.

3.4 Pyrolysis cleaning
• The cleaning process consists of the dirt
being burnt at high temperatures.
• The smoke and smells are eliminated by a
catalyzer.
• There is no need to wait until the oven has
accumulated a large amount of grease to
perform the cleaning process.
• After pyrolysis, when the oven has cooled
down, wipe it with a damp cloth to remove
the white ash residue.
• Before starting the pyrolysis process, take
all the accessories out of the oven, includ-
ing the cooking accessories and the tele-
scopic runners.
• If any substances are stuck to the inside of
the oven due to spillovers, remove them
before carrying out the pyrolysis process
as they could catch fire or give off large
amounts of smoke.
func-
• During the pyrolysis process the surfaces
become hotter than during normal use.
Keep children away from the oven.
