Pyrolytic cleaning an oven or cooker


Pyrolytic ovens are basically an automatic cleaning system , The system heats the inside of the oven until it reaches 400 degree C this turns any food residue to ash which can then be wiped away once the oven cools again and the door lock opens.

Due to the temps reaches during this cleaning ovens with this option usually have  lot more heat insulation around the outside of oven and also have more glass layers in the door.

The door is always locked during the operation and some ovens re fitted with catalytic convertors to filter out smells as well.

  • Remove everything inside the oven, close the oven door and select the pyrolytic cleaning function.
  • During pyrolytic cleaning, the internal temperature of the oven will reach 400 + °C.
  • The glass door of the oven might be hot to touch. Do not touch it during the cleaning cycle.
  • Once the pyrolytic cleaning is completed, you can wipe away any remaining residue inside the oven with a damp cloth.
