PYROLYSIS FUNCTION

IMPORTANT NOTES:

This is not a cooking function but is only used to clean the oven. Before starting the pyrolytic cycle:

■■ Take all the accessories out of the oven (baking/grill tray and shelves). If the oven has an anti-grease filter unhook and remove it, as described on page 14.

■■ Clean any traces of liquid which have overflowed.

■■ Close the oven door and make sure that it is closed properly.

If there are cracks or flaws on the oven door glass (inside/outside) or if the ga- skets are ruined or worn or if the door does not close perfectly, unplug the ap- pliance and contact the After-Sales Service Centre.

GENERAL INFORMATION

■■ In this function the residual cooking greases on the inside walls of the oven cavity are pulverised by the high temperature. The fumes produced during this process are filte- red by a special catalyst in the upper part of the appliance.

■■ Smells and fumes produced during pyrolysis are not a cause of alarm. Adequate ven- tilation should however be provided in the room where the oven is installed, e.g. by opening a window.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

■■ Do not wait for the oven to be very greasy before performing this cleaning. It should not be performed after every cooking, either, but only when the level of dirt justifies it (on average 1 – 2 times a month depending on oven use).

■■ For safety reasons (high temperature of the oven cavity), when the pyrolysis starts the oven is automatically locked by an electronic device (on the control panel the pilot light with key symbol lights up). The door can no longer be ope- ned and is only unlocked at the end of the cleaning cycle or, stopping the cycle, when the oven cavity has cooled to a temperature lower than 300 °C.

■■ When the pyrolytic function starts an internal fan starts automatically to cool the oven walls. It only stops at the end of the cycle, when the oven cavity temperature has dropped below 100 °C.

■■ The procedures for starting, stopping and completing the pyrolysis cycle and dealing with any problems are described in the following chapters:

“HOW TO START THE PYROLYSIS CYCLE”

“PROBLEMS ON STARTING AND DURING THE PYROLYSIS CYCLE”

“HOW TO STOP THE PYROLYSIS CYCLE”

“WHAT TO DO WHEN THE PYROLYSIS CYCLE HAS FINISHED”

“ABNORMAL SITUATIONS AND/OR OPERATING PROBLEMS”

■■ Caution: During the pyrolytic cycle the accessible parts may become hot. Keep children away.
