Pyrolytic cleaning of the oven cavity
The oven has the 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.
