End of pyrolysis:

After the pyrolysis process has ended, an audible signal sounds and the (cooking time) symbol flashes. Press any key and turn the “Temperature" control knob to the 0 position and the “Mode" knob to a position other than Pyrolysis.

Please note that, for safety reasons, the door will not be unlocked until until the oven has cooled down to 150 °C. The door lock symbol goes off.

Wait until the oven has cooled down; then, you can remove any pyrolysis residues (e.g. ash) from the oven compartment.

In this mode of operation (auto pyrolysis), even stubborn soiling is burnt away at temperatures around 485 °C.

After the pyrolytic cleaning process, you can remove the ash easily from the oven using a moist cloth.

Ending the pyrolysis process before expiry of the entered time:

–Turn the “Temperature" control knob to the 0 position and the “Mode" control knob to a position other than Pyrolysis.

–Pay attention to the fact that the door is not unlocked until at a temperature of 150 °C or less.

Tip: wait until the appliance indicates that the pyrolysis process has ended. This ensures that you will achieve an optimum cleaning result.

Starting pyrolysis at a later time:

–Enter the required switch-off time (see Chapter 3).

–Turn the control knobs to the pyrolysis setting as described above.

Note: you can query the current pyrolysis time by pressing the (Timer) key. You can increase the length of the pyrolytic cleaning process during operation. Press the + key to increase the value by 30 minutes in each case. Confirm the value by pressing the (confirmation) key.
