CLEANING MENU

There are 2 possibilities:

• Manual cleaning (on demand)
• Auto cleaning (cleaning programmed every day of the week):

The cavity should never be cleaned with grills or containers in situ. 24.1 « MANUAL » CLEANING (on demand):

➔ Intensity of the cleaning: Light / Medium / Intensive / Ultimate (The durations are shown on the left)
➔ Descaling included: In addition to the cleaning cycle, a descaling cycle will be run if necessary, depending on the use and setting of the oven. (Measured by the frequency of use of the oven and the water hardness recorded in the parameters)
➔ Integrated drying: drying of the cooking cham as well as the cleaning and/or descaling cycle if the key is selected.
➔ 2 possible mode choices:
– Washing with descaling activated as default: if this choice is un-ticked the cycle time is shortened to cleaning time only,
– Descaling only: allows enhanced descaling cycle to be run.
Procedure:

• Switch the oven on.
• Wait a few seconds until the start screen clears. If the preheat starts press STOP.
• Press the Service tab. The screen shows the last washing level used and whether a descaling cycle will be run.
  ➔ “Cleaning and descaling (if necessary)”
• Press to select:
  ➔ “Start” a cleaning cycle.
• The screen indicates the different phases selected for the cycle, the running time, and the remaining time. When the cleaning cycle has finished the “Service” screen is displayed again.
  Note: The washing level/descaling/dry can be modified:
• Press to select:
  ➔ “Cleaning “
• Select the required level of cleaning depending on how dirty the oven is. ➔ “Cleaning level” Light, medium, intensive or ultimate. The time for each is indicated in the box, shown in minutes.

GUIDANCE AND INFO ABOUT THE CONTROL SCREEN

USB PORT SOCKET / CORE PROBE SOCKET

The USB port and core probe sockets are fitted with a silicone protective cover.

Warning!

• Always put the protective cover in place (lowered to protect connections) whenever the socket is not in use.
• Never “clean” connections with a water hose or a sponge. (If the silicone cover is used and put back in place after use, no maintenance is necessary).
• The guarantee will not apply if these recommendations are not observed.

Note: To use the USB socket, refer to the “Data export” paragraph or to the “FastPAD PC” software in the user manual

TOOLS FOR OPTIMAL COOKING

27.1 CORE PROBE
The core probe allows the perfect control of the level of your cooking which can be reproduced day after day whatever the size of the product. The core temperature to be reached will vary, of course, with the kind of product and the cooking level desired.
WARNING: The cooking of a product does not stop at once when removed from the oven.
As a matter of fact, after a standstill, the core temperature continues rising to reach a temperature all the higher as the product has been cooked at a high temperature.
Example:
Beef roasted in combined mode at 392°F and removed from the oven at the time when its temperature reaches 104°F will see this later rise to about 135°F.
The same beef, steam-cooked at low temperature at 140°F (as the last phase) and removed from the oven at the time when its core temperature has reached 126°F, will evolve very little reaching 133°F.

NOTE: Recommendation for controlling the core temperature (cooking degree):
To control properly the degree of cooking, the aspect, and the weight loss, more especially in the case of red meats, we recommend finishing cooking with a low-temperature steam phase. Adjust the temperature to 46°C above the core temperature desired.
Example: Roasting beef:

The cooking time increases to about 1 hour 25 minutes.

27.2 LOW-TEMPERATURE COOKING
To optimize certain types of cooking, electronic regulation allows for long low-temperature cooking. The set temperature corresponds to the core temperature which must be achieved.
Low temperature is indispensable for treating big pieces (sucking pig, leg of pork (ham), big fish), often treated in vacuum bags (sous vide).
This cooking mode is also worthwhile for perfectly controlling the cooking level (very rare, rare, well done…), for the aspect (external and sliced), for diminishing weight loss, but also for being safer from a hygienic point of view in the preparation of food products.
The quality of cooking is also much less sensitive to the size of the products treated, as well as to their quality.
The time necessary for cooking entirely conducted at low temperatures is of course longer.

NOTE: Medium size pieces of meat (joints, leg of lamb…)
It is possible to diminish significantly the cooking times (2 or 3 times less), for medium-sized pieces, and still partly keep the advantages above, by following:

MAINTENANCE OF THE OVEN

WARNING: Regular and thorough cleaning will ensure the prolonged service life

• UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD CLEANING CHEMICALS BE USED ON SURFACES THAT ARE OVER 140°F. The result will be serious discoloration and damage to the surfaces.
• Jet washers and hoses, high or low pressure should never be used for cleaning.
• The warranty will not cover the resulting damage if the following guidance is ignored.
• The appliance must be isolated electrically during cleaning or maintenance and when replacing parts.

28.1 INFORMATION ABOUT STAINLESS STEEL
Stainless steel is a steel grade designed in that a thin protective sheet is formed on the metallic surface, which protects it against corrosion (Oxide film resulting from the chemical reaction of oxygen on the metallic surface).
Anything hindering the formation of this sheet, or facilitating its partial destruction (Food residues, overflow of liquids, stagnant liquids…)
reduces the resistance of stainless steel to corrosion.
Whilst the composition of stainless steel enables it to withstand some chemical aggression better than classical steel, you must not think that stainless steel is indestructible.
⚫ 3 main factors contributing to corrosion should be watched for:

The combination of these three factors may lead to the eventual destruction of parts of the equipment, even if they have been made in very high-quality stainless steel.
Note that when stainless steel becomes corroded, it is extremely rare that this is generated by the steel itself. Generally, cleaning products, which are not appropriate or are improperly used, lack maintenance, or are under extreme conditions of use are often found to be the cause of the damage.
WARNING!
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for cases of corrosion resulting from these conditions and the warranty will not apply.
A list of the most frequent causes follows, to allow you to better identify possible inappropriate use and to ensure the long service life of your equipment.

28.2 THE COMMONEST CAUSES OF CORROSION:
Floor cleaning
Floors are often cleaned with very aggressive products (prior to handover or during a kitchen deep clean). If the product is sprayed, without necessary precautions or suitable dilution, any splashes on the appliances may result in the corrosion of legs, bases, and low-level trims.
Worse still, if the area is not properly ventilated after application, the vapor from these products may settle on the equipment and result in corrosion spreading to the entire surface.
Inappropriate cleaning products (Bleach, Acids, Soda)
If inappropriate products, such as bleach, acid, or soda dilutions, (all products which are not specifically designed for the maintenance of stainless steel) are used, irreversible etching of the stainless-steel surfaces can occur.
Cleaning product applied when the temperature is too high
All cleaning products are more aggressive at higher temperatures. In principle, the temperature of any surface must not exceed 140°C or permanent staining (blackening) of the stainless steel will result.
Inadequate rinsing after cleaning
After cleaning the surfaces should all be rinsed thoroughly to remove any chemical residues. If this is not done the residue will continue to act over time with the risk of starting the corrosive process.
Worse still, if the affected surface is submitted to temperatures over 140°C (inside of an oven, a tank, or tank, …), the impact will be greater and corrosion will almost inevitably occur.
Stagnation of cleaning products
In the same way, all the areas that can trap chemicals, especially the channels, gutters, drainage manifolds, traps, etc. must be subject to careful and plentiful rinsing. (Use a nylon brush to reinforce the action of rinsing with clean water).
Salt concentration
Salt, much in use in kitchens, is often found to be the origin of pitting that can even penetrate the stainless steel. Spillages on any surface should be cleaned up at once.
The particular case of cooking in boiling salted water:
Salting water in a tank or tank presents a major risk: never put cooking salt into the tank before the water and remember that salt can concentrate on the base of the tank. Salt should be added to the water and stirred until it dissolves, the risk is reduced using table salt which dissolves faster.
Intensive use with brine
Certain products, such as sauerkraut (acid juices), fish and seafood (presence of salt), and in general, all brines, must be subject to particular attention. In the case of occasional use, there should be no problem if the equipment is carefully and systematically cleaned after each use.
In the case of intensive use, all the cooking equipment (ovens, boiling pans, even utensils) must be selected with a grade of stainless steel specifically adapted to use in such an environment
Too much chlorine in the mains water supply
Sometimes certain networks supply water containing chlorine at above normal levels. In this event, it is not unusual to be faced with problems of corrosion, pay particular attention to bain-marie, water baths, and equipment left to soak overnight, etc.
Cleaning aluminum or aluminum coated items
The presence of aluminum or items that are aluminum coated in a chlorine solution is a particularly powerful catalyst for damaging stainless steel.
Do not leave fittings such as hood filters, aluminum trays, or dishes soaking in tanks, tanks, pots, fryers, etc. Just one night is sufficient to etch stainless steel at the point of contact with aluminum.

28.3 MAINTENANCE OF EXTERNAL SURFACES
It is necessary to clean the metal surface carefully so as to eliminate all dust, metal particles, and deposits of any kind which could damage the protective layer mentioned above. For this purpose, it is sufficient to wash these surfaces with soapy water or any other neutral and non-abrasive cleaning product. RINCE CAREFULLY and wipe the surfaces. Never scrub stainless steel with metal wool, but if necessary, only with a “Scotch Brite” type pad or a similar product, by following the direction of polishing of the stainless-steel surface.
28.4 CLEANING THE ELECTRONIC COMPARTMENT VENTILATION OPENINGS
Cooling of the electronic compartment is ensured by means of the ventilation apertures at the right front of the equipment (6 / 7 and 10 levels). Once a week, check that the aeration grids are clean and not obstructed by dust by cleaning their surface with a dry cloth. 28.5 CLEANING THE CAVITY GASKET
In order to remove traces of grease or food scraps that can damage the gasket, regular and manual cleaning of the cavity gasket should be performed on the inner and outer faces.
Before cleaning, use water with soap or neutral and non-abrasive detergent with a sponge or a soft cloth to remove the grease from the cavity gasket.
28.6 CLEANING THE SELECTION KNOB
To clean the part behind the selection knob, remove it. 

28.7 CLEANING BEHIND THE INNER DOOR
In order to keep optimum visibility of the cooking area, regularly clean the inner door and the door paneling with a suitable product and a soft cloth.
Opening the internal glass

* Open the door
To open the internal glass
– Press gently on the retaining clip to release the glass
Opening the door paneling

Open the door
To open the internal glass
– Press gently on the retaining clip to release the glass
Removing the door paneling
– Undo the 2 Phillips screws on the side of the door
– Undo the 3 Phillips screws holding the door paneling
– Remove the paneling and the internal glass retaining clips

28.8 MAINTENANCE OF INTERNAL SURFACES
The general principle consists in not letting the following settle in certain places:
– Substances are likely to become concentrated and so become corrosive.
– Settling of different minerals contained in water and likely to generate corrosion (walls) performance and life-duration (fan balancing, exchanger dissipation, ..) problems.
CLEANING, DEGREASING: Once a day (see section « Cleaning menu »)
DESCALING: Every day if necessary.
If there are any mineral deposits (whitish specks) as a result of un-softened water in the cooking chamber this must be removed daily.
For maximum efficiency of the descaling product without damaging the material and components of the oven, you should use an appropriate descaler. The use of certain acids has an irreversible destructive effect that may cause significant damage. The descaling product must contain corrosion inhibitors to prevent the metal attack. It must also comply with legal requirements, in particular for material intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
Chemical products containing nitric acid are strictly prohibited. Recommended composition:
– Phosphoric acid <50%
– Corrosion inhibitor

28.9 MATERIAL USED FOR COOKING CORROSIVE PRODUCTS (Sea fish, sauerkraut)
The materials used intensively and regularly for cooking corrosive products, such as sea fish, and sauerkraut, …, should be cleaned carefully and systematically after each use.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

The appliance must be isolated electrically during cleaning or maintenance and when replacing parts.
