Automatic cleaning with the FAST CLEAN function
GB
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:
• clean the oven door;
• remove large or coarse food residues from the inside of the oven using a
damp sponge. Do not use detergents;
• remove all accessories and the sliding rack kit (where present);
• Do not place tea towels or pot holders over the oven handle.
• Turn the SELECTOR knob to the "0" position.
! 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 activate the FAST CLEAN cycle press and hold the
approximately 4 seconds. The TIMER KNOB may be used to select the
desired cleaning level; there are three default time settings which cannot

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.

may be programmed (see Programming the automatic cleaning end time).

dust deposits on the bottom and the sides of your oven; remove these
