- Pyro-cleaning involves cleaning the oven by heating to a high temperature (pyrolysis) in order to remove grime and dirt inside the
oven caused by splashing or dripping during cooking. The smoke and smell this produces are removed by being passed through
a catalyst.
The oven has three pyro-clean cycles (Model UMP 50*) suited to all situations
- An economic cycle that lasts 1h30 (the oven is locked for 2 hours to allow for cooling down). This cycle consumes 25%
less the standard pyro-clean cycle. When used regularly (every two or three times you cook meat) this cycle keeps the oven clean
under any conditions.
- A medium cycle that lasts 1h 45 (the oven is locked for 2hours 15m to allow for cooling down). This cycle cleans dirty
ovens efficiently.
- A super-cleaning cycle that lasts 2 hours (the oven is locked for 2hours 30m to allow for cooling down). This cycle is for
really dirty ovens.
- For safety reasons the door is automatically locked shut after about 2 minutes of pyro-cleaning.
It is impossible to unlock the door even if the selector switch is in the 0 position.
How much does pyro-cleaning cost?
No more than the cost of a stamp!
What is pyro-cleaning?
Your oven smokes when you pre-heat it, or it smokes a lot during cooking.
Your oven smells when it has cooled down after cooking certain types of food (lamb, fish, grills, etc).
Don't wait until the oven is very grimy before carrying out pyro-cleaning.
It is not necessary to use the program each time the oven is used; it depends on the amount of grime in the oven.
Why use the pyro-clean program?
COOKING PRODUCING sponge cakes, vegetables, pastries, Cooking without splashing;
NO GRIME quiches, soufflés, etc. pyro-cleaning is not necessary.
COOKING PRODUCING meat, fish (in a dish), Pyro-cleaning may be necessary
SOME GRIME stuffed vegetables every three times the oven is used.
COOKING PRODUCING large pieces of meat; Pyro-cleaning may be carried out
A LOT OF GRIME cooking on the spit: duck, turkey, after cooking of this type if there has
leg of lamb, etc. been a lot of splashing.
When to use the pyro-clean program
A few hints
To reduce splashing, check that you are using:
- the right position advised in your instruction book;
- the right height inside the oven;
- the right temperature.
If the food still produces splashing and smoke, reduce the temperature on the thermostat.
