Regeneration of self-cleaning panels
(catalytic cycle) (on some models only)
The regeneration cycle of the self-cleaning
panels is a cleaning method through
heating suitable for removing small grease
residues, not sugar-based ones.
1. Clean the base and the upper guard first
(where fitted) with a microfibre cloth
soaked in water and neutral washing up
liquid. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Set a regeneration cycle by selecting a
fan assisted function at the maximum
temperature for one hour.
3. If the panels are particularly dirty, after
the regeneration cycle, remove them and
wash them with neutral washing up
liquid. Rinse and dry them.
4. Put the panels back in the oven and set
a fan assisted function at a temperature
of 180°C for one hour, in order to
ensure that they are thoroughly dry.
Cleaning the roof of the oven (on some
models only)
The appliance is equipped with a tilting grill
element that allows for easy cleaning of the
roof of the oven cavity.
1. Free the upper heating element by
gently lifting it and rotating its retaining
latch by 90 degrees.
2. Gently lower the heating element until it
stops.
3. When you have finished cleaning, place
the heating element back in position and
turn the retaining latch to lock it in place.
We recommend carrying out the
self-cleaning panel regeneration
cycle every 15 days.
High temperature inside the oven
during use
Danger of burns
• The following operations must be
performed only with the oven switched
off and completely cool.
Improper use
Risk of damage to the appliance
• Do not excessively flex the element
during cleaning.
