Using the Self Clean function
This convenient pyrolytic Self Clean function takes care of the mess and grime that is
traditionally associated with oven cleaning. The extremely high temperature during a Self Clean
cycle burns off and breaks down stubborn soil and grease deposits. All that remains is a clean
oven cavity with a little grey ash which you can easily remove.
A Self Clean cycle lasts about 3 hours.
Important!
Do not use oven cleaners, any degreasing cleaners, or oven liners.
Make sure you remove the side racks, oven shelves and trays, and all other bakeware and utensils
from the oven before starting a Self Clean cycle. If left in the oven, they will become permanently
discoloured or damaged; items made from combustible materials (eg wood, fabric, plastic) may
even catch fire.
Do not use your oven to clean miscellaneous parts.
Make sure the room is well ventilated.
Before starting a Self Clean cycle, make sure you move any pet birds to another, closed and well-
ventilated room. Some pet birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during a Self Clean
cycle, and may die if left in the same room as the oven during such a cycle.
During a Self Clean cycle, the oven reaches higher temperatures than it does for cooking. Under
such conditions, the surfaces may get hotter than usual and children should be kept away.
The oven door will be locked during the Self Clean cycle (approximately 3 hours).
If there are cracks or flaws on any of the oven door glass panes, if the oven seal is damaged or
worn, or if the door does not close properly, do not start a Self Clean cycle. Call your Authorised
Repairer or Customer Care.
To start a Self Clean cycle
1
Remove oven shelves, side racks and all other accessories, bakeware, and utensils.
2
Wipe up any spills. Failure to do so may discolour the oven surfaces. For best results, we also
recommend cleaning the inside of the oven door glass manually before a Self Clean cycle. See
‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
3
Close the oven door firmly.
