Cleaning: pyrolytic, catalytic or enamel
- Pyrolytic. The oven heats to a very high temperature, grease turns to ash, and you wipe it out with a damp cloth. No chemicals or water. 11 Electrolux models in our range.
- Catalytic cleaning. A special coating breaks down grease when the oven is hot (Electrolux states from 250 °C).
- Enamel and AquaClean. Smooth enamel is cleaned by hand; AquaClean helps soften dirt with water and steam.
Sizes and installation
A standard oven is 60 cm wide and about 60 cm high, built in under the worktop or in a tall unit. A compact oven is about 45 cm high and fits in a tall unit above a standard oven. See the exact niche dimensions in each model's specifications and installation drawing.
