Pyrolysis (self-cleaning) en-us
. Pyrolysis (self-cleaning)
Pyrolysis (self-cleaning) During self-clean (pyrolysis), the oven heats up to 905°F
(485°C). Thus, remainders from roasting, grilling or
baking are burnt up and all you have to do is wipe the ash
out of the interior.
Self-clean (pyrolysis) takes three hours. You can move the
self-clean switch-off time (for example, if you would like it
to run at night).
9 WARNING
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning,
small amounts of Carbon Monoxide can be created
and the fiberglass insulation could give off very
small amounts of formaldehyde during the first
several cleaning cycles. To minimize exposure to
these substances, provide good ventilation with an
open window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.
Wipe out excessive spillage before self-cleaning the
oven.
