What does it involve? The walls inside the oven are finished with catalytic panels with tiny little holes that collect dirt. These are systematically burnt during use, which has its advantages &#8211; you do not need to use a special cleaning mode, so it is a more economical solution and very simple in everyday use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-what-is-pyrolysis\">What is pyrolysis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>How to clean an oven from burnt fat or other tough dirt? In this case, the pyrolysis function will be ideal! This self-cleaning option, unlike catalysis, has to be turned on separately &#8211; it cannot work together with cooking, for a very simple reason. In this case, the device is heated up to 500\u00b0C, and at this temperature all dirt, grease and food remains are burnt. When the cleaning programme is over, all you need to do is wipe the inside of the oven with a damp cloth to get rid of the burnt residues and enjoy a perfectly clean oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-how-to-clean-an-oven-with-hot-air-circulation\">How to clean an oven with hot air circulation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prepare a casserole dish with 250ml of water and add some lemon juice for extra cleaning power.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Preheat the oven to 150\u00b0C and select the heating and hot air circulation settings to evenly distribute the steam and lemon mixture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the oven has reached the set temperature, turn it off and let it cool.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After cooling, thoroughly wipe the inside of the oven.

For added effectiveness, add a little vinegar, lemon juice, or salt. Apply the paste to dirty areas and leave for about two hours.

Apply this mixture to the oven, then clean off with water and salt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vinegar Solution<\/strong>: Mix equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle.
