Warning:
During the PYROLYSIS programme, the temperature inside the oven reaches 500°C and starts the
pyrolysis process, in other words the carbonisation of food residues The residues are literally incinerat-
ed. During pyrolysis, the surfaces can become very hot: keep children away. You may occasionally see
particles light up through the glass: this is instantaneous combustion, a completely normal phenomenon
which presents no dangers. Before activating PYROLYSIS:
Remove excess residues with a damp sponge. Do not use detergents; remove all accessories, the tele-
scopic runners and brackets. Do not place towels or potholders on the oven handle. If the oven is very
hot, pyrolysis may not start. Wait for it to cool down. The programme only activates after the oven door
has been closed.
Programming the Pyrolyse function
Press
1. Economy (ECO): 1 hour 30 minutes duration
2. Intensive (INT): 2 hours duration;
Select the desired pyrolysis level. Its duration is preset and
cannot be changed using the + and - buttons.
e.g. Pyro eco, duration 1 hr 30 mins.
Press start. The time is shown on the display and the pro-
gramme starts. After a fews minutes the door locks. The
icon is shown on the display.
Programming delayed pyrolysis
It is possible to delay the time when pyrolysis is to start. For details, see section "programmed cooking
with delayed start and selected end time" (p.9)
Safety mechanisms
The door locks automatically when the temperature reaches high levels. If a malfunction occurs, the
power to the heating elements is automatically cut. Once the door has been locked, it is not possible to change
the duration and end time. Programming can only be carried out after the PYROLYSE programme has been
selected.
When pyrolysis has finished:
The oven door unlocks when the temperature inside the oven has come down to safe levels. White dust may
be found around the inside of the oven. Remove it using a damp sponge after the appliance has cooled com-
pletely. Why not take advantage of the stored heat to start cooking without worrying about the dust residues.
They are completely harmless.
