4 / CARING FOR AND CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
EN
If your oven emits smoke during preheating or releases large amounts of smoke during cooking.
If your oven releases an unpleasant odour when cooled after various types of cooking (lamb,
fish, grills, etc...).
- Pyrolysis is a cycle during which the oven cavity is heated to a very high temperature in order
to eliminate spatters and spills. Smoke and odours released during pyrolysis are destroyed by
moving through a catalyzer.
- Pyrolysis is not necessary after each cooking cycle, simply when the degree of soiling warrants it.
- As a safety measure, the cleaning operation only begins after the door has automatically
locked. As soon as the internal temperature of the oven exceeds cooking temperatures, it is
impossible to unlock the door even if the “function selector” is set to 0.

Meat, fish (in a dish), stuffed
vegetables.
Large cuts of meat on the spit.
Splatter-free cooking: pyrolysis is
not warranted.
Pyrolysis may be warranted after
every 3 cooking cycles.
Pyrolysis can be performed after
one cooking application of this
kind, as there is a lot of
splattering.
WHAT IS PYROLYSIS?
Tip
You should not wait until the oven is overly coated in grease to initiate a cleaning cycle.
IN WHAT SITUATIONS SHOULD PYROLYSIS BE USED?
••

Tip
Your oven is equipped with enamelled wire shelf supports: these need to be removed
before running the pyrolysis cycle.
