Cleaning and care
During the pyrolytic process the oven is heated to approx. 460 °C . Any residual soiling is burnt off by the high temperatures.
The oven door is automatically locked shortly after the pyrolytic cleaning process starts.
Depending on soiling levels you can choose between two cleaning programmes:
–PY I lasting approx. 2 hours
–PY 2 lasting approx. 2 hours 30 minutes
For safety reasons the door will remain locked until the temperature in the oven cavity has dropped below 280 °C.
