Pyrolytic Cleaning of the Oven Cavity
(Pyrolytic models only)
The oven has a pyrolytic self-cleaning function. It cleans by
burning off the spatters and accumulated dirt and grease
from the oven liner, at high temperature. This process
produces ash which can then be wiped out of the oven
cavity. It is recommended you clean your oven regularly to
keep the oven in its best condition.
• Light clean - this is an energy saving cycle that can be
used on a regular basis if the oven is lightly soiled.
Possibly after every 2nd or 3rd roast.
• Normal clean - use this as the regular cycle about once
every 2-3 months.
Before carrying out the Pyrolytic cleaning function
WARNING
warning
• Clean large deposits, spills or grease from the
oven cavity.
• Please keep small children at a safe distance. The
appliance becomes very hot.
• Never clean non-stick baking trays and tins in the oven
during the pyrolytic cycle. High temperatures damage the
non-stick coating and poisonous gas is released.
• Pyrolitic cleaning can release fumes that are not harmful
to humans, including infants or persons with medical
conditions, however you are strongly advised to provide
good ventilation during and after each pyrolytic cleaning
process.
• Unlike humans, some birds and reptiles can be extremely
sensitive to the potential fumes emitted during the pyrolytic
cleaning process. It is strongly advised to remove any pets
(especially birds) from the vicinity of the appliance during
and after each pyrolytic cleaning process.
• Small pets can also be highly sensitive to the localized
temperature changes in the vicinity of all pyrolytic ovens
when the pyrolytic self cleaning program is in operation.
WARNING
caution
• All accessories must be removed from the oven, including
shelves, trays and side racks.
• During pyrolytic cleaning the air outlet vent above the
door must be kept clear of any obstruction (e.g. tea
towels).
30 PYROLYTIC CLEANING Built-in Cooking
• Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous items (e.g.
cookware).
• To prevent damage, do not use acids, sprays or similar
cleaning agents.
important TIPS & INFORMATION
During the pyrolytic cleaning function, it is advisable not to
use a cooktop if it is fitted above the oven. This could cause
overheating and damage to both appliances. The cooling
fan will operate at an increased speed for Pyrolytic cleaning
and will continue to run until the oven has cooled down. It is
recommended to use the Pyro clean function regularly to keep
the oven in its best condition.
Starting the Pyrolytic cleaning function
• Turn the oven "Function" selector clockwise to select the
"Pyro" function.
• Use the + or – buttons on the electronic clock to select
between a pyrolytic cleaning time of 1:30 hours (light
clean) or 2:30 hours (normal clean) for the appropriate
level of cleaning required.
• After 5 seconds from the last change, the oven
will begin heating and the "Remaining time" will
be displayed.
• The pyrolytic cleaning function can be stopped at any
time during the cycle by turning the function selector
counter-clockwise to the "OFF" position.
During Pyrolytic cleaning
When the temperature in the oven approaches 300
door will automatically lock and a padlock symbol will
appear on the display.
After Pyrolytic cleaning
The door will only unlock when the oven has cooled to a safe
temperature. Turning the function off will not unlock the door.
After cool-down, wipe the ash out of the oven with a soft
damp cloth and warm water. To restore the enamel shine
to more difficult areas, use a damp cloth with vinegar and
detergent.
Note: The "Remaining time" does not include cool-down time
for the oven.
