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
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
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).
Safety devices
The
icon on the display, when lit, indicates
that the oven door was automatically locked as soon
as the temperature reached a high value.
The
icon indicates that the cleaning cycle
may be cancelled at any time by pressing the
button.
If a malfunction occurs, the heating elements will
be switched off.
Once the oven door has been locked, you cannot
change the duration and cycle end time settings.
Programming the automatic cleaning end time
1. Press the
button until the icon and the two
digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.
2. Turn the TIMER KNOB towards + and - to
adjust the hour value.
3. Press the
button again until the other two
digits on the DISPLAY begin to flash.
4. Turn the TIMER KNOB towards + and - to
adjust the minute value.
5. Press the
button again to confirm.
6. When the set time has elapsed, the text END
appears on the display and a buzzer sounds.
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
and
buttons are illuminated. The display shows the FAST
CLEAN end time and duration alternately.
Once the automati c 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.
