USING THE SELF CLEAN FUNCTION

■
This convenient pyrolytic Self Clean function takes care of the mess and grime that
is traditionally associated with oven cleaning. The extremely high temperature during
a Self Clean cycle burns off and breaks down stubborn soil and grease deposits. All
that remains is a clean oven cavity with a little grey ash which you can easily remove.
Important!
■
Do not use oven cleaners, any degreasing cleaners, or oven liners.
■
Make sure you remove the oven shelves and trays, rotisserie and all other bakeware
and utensils from the oven before starting a Self Clean cycle. If left in the oven, they
will become permanently discoloured or damaged; items made from combustible
materials (eg wood, fabric, plastic) may even catch fire.
■
Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts.
■
Make sure the room is well ventilated.
■ Before starting a Self Clean cycle, make sure you move any pet birds to another,
closed and wellventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes
given off during a Self Clean cycle, and may die if left in the same room as the oven
during such a cycle.
■
During a Self Clean cycle, the oven reaches higher temperatures than it does for
cooking. Under such conditions, the surfaces may get hotter than usual and children
should be kept away.
■
The oven door will be locked during the Self Clean cycle.
■ If there are cracks or flaws on any of the oven door glass panes, if the oven seal is
damaged or worn, or if the door does not close properly, do not start a Self Clean cycle.
Call your Authorised Repairer or Customer Care.
To start a Self Clean cycle
1a. Remove oven shelves and all other
accessories, bakeware, and utensils
(fig. 17).
1b. Wipe up any spills. Failure to do so
may discolour the oven surfaces.
1c. Check the inner glass pane of the oven
door (D). If it has soiling on it (eg stains
from greasy splatter), you will need to
clean it manually before starting a Self
Clean cycle.
