12.5 Cleaning the oven
To keep the oven in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after allowing it to cool down. Remove
all removable parts.
• Clean the oven shelves with hot water and non-abrasive detergents, rinse and dry.
• The round cover must be left in place during cleaning operations and must be dried quickly to ensure
that no liquids can leak underneath it. If this should occur, remove the cover, cut off the power
supply to the appliance and dry the area underneath.
• Wash the pizza plate separately with a non-abrasive metal pad dipped in lemon or vinegar: never
wash in the dishwasher or with an ordinary detergent.
12.6 Cleaning the door glazing
The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll; remove
stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and ordinary detergent.
When cleaning, dry the appliance thoroughly to prevent water or detergent drips from interfering with its
operation or creating unsightly marks.
12.7 Pyrolysis: automatic oven cleaning
Pyrolysis is an automatic high-temperature cleaning procedure which causes dirt to dissolve.
Before starting the automatic cleaning cycle, make sure that the oven does not contain any foods or
large spills from previous cooking operations inside.
A door interlock device means that the door cannot be opened during the procedure.
If the oven is installed underneath a hob, make sure that the burners or electric plates remain off during
the automatic cleaning cycle.
12.8 Before starting the automatic cleaning cycle
Pyrolysis may be carried out at any time of the day or night (if you wish to benefit from the lower cost of
electricity overnight).
• only the baking tray, the oven tray and the roof liner may be left inside the oven since they will
withstand the high temperatures of the pyrolysis process; all the other accessories must be removed
from inside the oven.
• remove the most obvious dirt (cleaning it by Pyrolysis would take too long);
• make sure that the oven door is firmly closed;
• when setting the cleaning cycle duration, refer to the chart below:
