Self-decreasing by catalysis

In this process, the interior walls of the oven are coated with a self-degreasing catalytic enamel. This enamel oxydizes and destroys all grease particles which splash on to the oven walls.The temperature of the walls must be over 170° for oxydization to occur. The porosity of the catalytic enamel increases the surface exchange required for oxydizing the grease particles by catalysis.

Towards the end of the cooking period, if there are still traces of grease particles, leave the empty oven turned on with

the door closed, set the temperature selector to maximum, the function selection control to for 60 to 90 minutes

according to the amount of grease residue. Hot water and a soft brush can also help remove spatterings of grease. Important: The Cannon catalytic enamel is very resistant. However, scraping the enamel with sharp objects (a knife for example) or cleaning with detergents and abrasives should be avoided as this may cause irreversible damage to the self-degreasing agents in the enamel. The enamel is very resistant, and enables easy sliding action of the various accessories (main rack, drip-pan, spit) without risk of damage to the enamel. Fine white dust may appear where the surfaces make contact, however this is no cause for concern.

Observations:

1.If the walls need to be replaced, they are removable.Your local Cannondistributor will supply you with a new set.

2.The grill element and roof are self-cleaning by the automatic destruction of residues due to the heat emitted from the element itself .

3.Other parts inside the oven such as the floor, the door the light fixture, can be cleaned with a soapy sponge. Rinse well and dry.

The accessories are produced from quality materials for easy cleaning, like everyday tableware, in a dish-washer.

Tips and recommendations

First use:

• Before using your oven for the first time, heat it once while empty, in a well-ventilated room.

We recommend that you use the “Forced air” mode at Maximum for 1 hour.

If your oven gives off a lot of smoke:

•Check that you have selected the appropriate function for the dish, that you are using the right accessories and cooking at the recommended level.

•Also check the displayed temperature: it is probably too high for the dish in question.

•Check whether the oven needs cleaning. Smoke and acrid odours are often the result of charred deposits stuck to the enamel.

If the fan continues to operate after the cooking ends:

•Do not be surprised if the fan continues to function even if you have turned the oven off. It will stop automatically once the oven has cooled sufficiently.

If the oven does not heat up:

•Check:

-that the electrical fuses have not blown,

-that the circuit breaker has not been triggered,

-that there is no mains power supply failure.

If the problem persists, contact your Distributor or After-Sales Service representative.
