6.2 Pyrolysis (Self Cleaning)
In this mode of operation (pyrolysis), even stubborn
soiling is burnt away at temperatures around 485°C.
After the pyrolytic cleaning process, you can
remove the ash easily from the oven using a moist
cloth.
For technical reasons, simultaneous pyrolytic
cleaning of the top and bottom ovens is not
possible.
During the pyrolysis of one oven it is possible to
bake or roast in the other oven. Grill, economy grill
and baking stone operation are not possible.
You can choose the duration of the pyrolysis
(2, 2
1
/
2
and 3 hours) depending on the level of
soiling.
Caution!
Ve ry high temperatures occur during the pyrolytic
self-cleaning process.
Observe the appropriate caution and keep
children away.
Gaggenau baking trays and grilling trays are
coated with pyrolysis-proof enamel. To arrive at an
optimum cleaning result, you are nevertheless
advised to remove all accessories from the oven
before the pyrolytic cleaning process. Only this
will ensure optimum heat distribution.
If you would like to remove burnt-in residues
from your baking tray or your grilling tray, it is
imperative that you observe the following
safety notes:
– Remove extreme fatty soiling, roast juice and
food remainders before the pyrolytic cleaning
process. These can cause a fire risk!
– Only ever insert one baking tray or one grill tray
in the lowest shelf in the oven.
– Insert the baking tray or your grill tray fully.
– The gridiron, the rotary spit or the baking stone
must not be cleaned pyrolytically.
