Automatic cleaning using the
PYROLYTIC cycle
During the PYROLYTIC cycle, the internal temperature
of the oven reaches 500°C. The pyrolytic cycle is
activated and burns away food and grime residues.
Dirt is literally incinerated.
Keep children away from the appliance during the
automatic cleaning cycle as surfaces may become
very hot. Particles may ignite inside the oven as a
result of the combustion process. There is no cause for
concern: this process is both normal and hazard-free.
Before initiating the PYROLYTIC CYCLE:
• Remove large or coarse food residues from the
inside of the oven using a damp sponge. Do not use
detergents.
• Remove all accessories.
Remove the two
frames, lifting them
away from the spacers
A (see figure).
• Do not place tea towels or pot holders over the oven
handle.
• Turn the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.
! If the oven is too hot, the pyrolytic cycle may not start.
Wait for the oven to cool down.
! The programme may only be started once the oven
door has been closed.
To activate the PYROLITIC CYCLE cleaning procedure,
press and hold the button for approximately 4
seconds. The TIMER KNOB may be used to select
the desired cleaning level; there are three default time
settings which cannot be modified.
1. Economy (ECO): turn the knob towards "-". Duration
1 hour.
2. Normal (NOR): initial level. Duration 1 hour and 30
minutes.
3. Intensive (INT): turn the knob towards "+". Duration
2 hours.
4. Press the button to confirm.
An end time for the PYROLITIC CYCLE (as for a normal
cooking cycle) may be programmed (see Programming
the automatic cleaning end time).

You will have to wait until the temperature inside the
oven has cooled down sufficiently before you can open
the oven door. You will notice some white dust deposits
on the bottom and the sides of your oven; remove
these deposits with a damp sponge once the oven has
cooled down completely. Alternatively, you can make
use of the already heated oven, in which case it is not
necessary to remove the deposits, they are completely
harmless and will not affect your food in any way.
