Automatic cleaning with the FAST CLEAN function

With the FAST CLEAN mode, the internal temperature of the oven reaches 500°C. The pyrolytic cycle is activated, burning away food and grime residues. Dirt is literally incinerated.

Keep children away from the appliance during the automatic cleaning cycle as surfaces may become very hot. Particles may ignite inside the oven due to the combustion process. There is no cause for concern: this process is both normal and hazard- free.

Before initiating the FAST CLEAN mode:

Remove large or coarse food residues from the inside of the oven using a damp sponge. Do not use detergents.

Remove all accessories.

Do not place tea towels or pot holders over the oven handle.

Turn the SELECTOR knob to the “0” position.

!If the oven is too hot, the pyrolytic cycle may not start. Wait for the oven to cool down.

!The programme may only be started once the oven door has been closed.

To activate the FAST CLEAN cycle press and hold

the Manual background button for approximately 4 seconds. The TIMER KNOB may be used to select the desired cleaning level; there are three default time settings which cannot be modified.

1.Economy (ECO): turn the knob towards “-”. Duration 1 hour.

2.Normal (NOR): initial level. Duration 1 hour and 30 minutes.

3.Intensive (INT): turn the knob towards “+”. Duration 2 hours.

4.Press the Manual background button to confirm.

An end time for the FAST CLEAN cycle (as for a normal cooking cycle) may be programmed (see Programming the automatic cleaning end time).

• For example: it is 9:00 a.m. and the Economy (ECO) FAST CLEAN level has been selected, with the default duration of 1 hour. 12:30 is scheduled as the end time. The programme will start automatically at 11:30 a.m.

Programming has been set when the Manual background and Manual background buttons are illuminated. The display shows the FAST CLEAN end time and duration alternately.

Once the automatic cleaning cycle is over

You will have to wait until the temperature inside the oven has cooled down sufficiently before you can open the oven door. You will notice some white dust deposits on the bottom and the sides of your oven; remove these deposits with a damp sponge once the oven has cooled down completely. Alternatively, you can make use of the already heated oven, in which case it is not necessary to remove the deposits, they are completely harmless and will not affect your food in any way.
