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.

• Remove the DIVIDER.

• 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 enable the FAST CLEAN cycle, turn the
EXTRALARGE SPACE FUNCTION knob to

.

Press the

button. 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.

• 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 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.
