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 and burns 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 spontaneous 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 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.
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 mode, press the
button and select the desired power level (the mode
has three power levels which cannot be modified):
1. Economy (ECO): 1 hour
2. Normal (NOR): 1 hour and 30 minutes
3. Intensive (INT): 2 hours.
Safety devices
The door is locked automatically as soon as the
temperature exceeds a certain value.
Should a malfunction occur, the heating elements
will switch off.
Once the oven door has been locked, you cannot
change the duration and end time settings.
Programming is possible only after selecting the
FAST CLEAN mode.
Programming delayed automatic cleaning
Press the
button, then:
1. Adjust the time using the + and - buttons on the

3. Press the START button to confirm the
programming process.
4. When the selected time has elapsed, END appears
on the TEMPERATURE display and a buzzer sounds.
For example: it is 9:00 a.m. and the Economy (ECO)
FAST CLEAN mode level has been selected: default
set time 1 hour. 12:30 is selected as the end time.
The programme will start automatically at 11:30 a.m.
Programming has been set when the

CLEAN end time and its duration alternately.
To cancel a programming procedure press the STOP
button.
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.
