Cleaning and care

Remove any coarse soiling from the oven before you start.

There is a fibre-glass door seal around the oven cavity.

This seal is particularly sensitive and should not be cleaned unless absolutely necessary. Rubbing can damage it.

Remove all accessories as well as the runners, the FlexiClip runners and any extra accessories from the oven interior before starting the pyrolytic cleaning process. The high temperatures needed for pyrolysis will damage the accessories.

The oven door gets much hotter during pyrolytic operation than during normal use.

Make sure children cannot touch the oven whilst a pyrolytic programme is running. Danger of burning.

During the pyrolytic process the oven is heated to approx. 460 °C. Any residual soiling is burnt off by the high temperatures.

The pyrolytic programme duration will vary depending on the level of soiling.

For safety reasons the oven door is automatically locked at the beginning of the pyrolytic programme.

At the end of the programme it will not be unlocked until the temperature inside the oven has dropped to below 280 °C.

If the pyrolitic cleaning programme has been started by mistake or if the process is interrupted, the door lock will be released:

immediately if the temperature is below 280 °C.

not until the oven interior temperature is below 280 °C if the temperature inside the oven is higher than

280 °C.

Starting a pyrolytic process

^Take all accessories out of the oven.

^Select the "Pyrolitic" function.

^Start the pyrolytic cleaning process. The door will lock.

You can delay the start of the pyrolytic process for example, to take advantage of cheaper night electricity tarifs. To do this:

^Select "Start time" and select a time to start the programme at.

You can change the start time if you wish at any time up until the delay period has elapsed.

At the end of the programme a buzzer will sound and the message "Programme finished" will appear in the display.

^Switch off the oven.
