PYROLYSIS FUNCTION

IMPORTANT NOTES:

This is not a cooking function but is only used to clean the oven.
Before starting the pyrolytic cycle:
- Take all the accessories out of the oven (drip tray and shelves). If the oven
has an anti-grease filter unhook and remove it, as described on page 11.
- Clean any traces of liquid which have overflowed.
- Close the oven door and make sure that it is closed properly.
If there are cracks or flaws on the oven door glass (inside/outside) or if the
gaskets are ruined or worn or if the door does not close perfectly, unplug the
appliance and contact the After-Sales Service Centre.
GENERAL INFORMATION
• In this function the residual cooking greases on the inside walls of the oven cavity
are pulverised by the high temperature. The fumes produced during this process are
filtered by a special catalyst in the upper part of the appliance.
• Smells and fumes produced during pyrolysis are not a cause of alarm. Adequate ven-
tilation should however be provided in the room where the oven is installed, e.g. by
opening a window.
• Do not wait for the oven to be very greasy before performing this cleaning. It should
not be performed after every cooking, either, but only when the level of dirt justifies
it (on average 1 – 2 times a month depending on oven use).
• For safety reasons (high temperature of the oven cavity), when the pyrolysis starts
the oven is automatically locked by an electronic device (on the control panel the
pilot light with key symbol lights up). The door can no longer be opened and is only
unlocked at the end of the cleaning cycle or, stopping the cycle, when the oven cavity
has cooled to a temperature lower than 300 °C.
• When the pyrolytic function starts an internal fan starts automatically to cool the oven
walls. It only stops at the end of the cycle, when the oven cavity temperature has
dropped below 100 °C.
• The procedures for starting, stopping and completing the pyrolysis cycle and dealing
with any problems are described in the following chapters:
- "How to start the pyrolysis cycle"
- "Problems in starting and during the pyrolysis cycle"
- "How to stop the pyrolysis cycle"
- "What to do when the pyrolysis cycle has finished"
- "Abnormal situations and/or operating problems"
• Caution: during the pyrolytic cycle the accessible parts may become hot. Keep chil-
dren away.
