Possible Causes

Door not fully locked, cavity temperature not reaching pyrolytic level, user settings incorrect, safety thermostat tripping intermittently

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the oven is empty of racks and accessories as required by Smeg before starting pyrolysis.

  • Check door lock: Confirm that the door lock engages and the door is fully closed. Listen for the lock motor at the start of the cycle.
  • Correct setup: Select the correct pyrolytic program and duration as per the user manual. Ensure the clock is set.
  • Ventilation and cooling fan: Verify that the cooling fan runs during the cycle and that cabinet ventilation is adequate.
  • Thermostat and sensor: If the cycle stops early repeatedly, the safety thermostat may be tripping. Have the thermostat and high-temperature sensor tested and replaced if necessary.
