ILVE stoves, wall ovens and cooktops feature
many advanced cooking components and
safety refinements. However before using
your oven for the first time the following
installation check must be carefully carried
out and oven elements must be burnt in.

■ Check that your ILVE installer has screwed the oven into its
cavity and that all packaging is removed from inside oven.

■ Check that all oven racks are in place.

Rack Positions

ILVE ovens are equipped with
various racks depending on
the model and size; all ILVE
wire racks are reversible. They
have angled offset ends to allow for height variation between
shelves; this is a particularly useful feature when cooking with
deep dishes, for large roasts or when batch cooking.

Burning in elements

It is necessary to burn the protective oils that are used in
manufacturing and shipping from the elements.

1 Set the clock to the correct time (See page 12)
2 Set oven temperature control knob to 125º C and select

cooking function mode 2 by turning function control knob.

3 Allow to burn in for 10 to 15 minutes.
4 Repeat process for all seven cooking modes (3 through 8)

in sequence and allow to burn in each mode for 10 to

15 minutes.
5 Clean the oven thoroughly when you have completed burn in

process so that the oven and grill/rotisserie will be ready
for use in cooking.

■ There may be a slight unpleasant odour during the initial
burn off procedure. As a result we advise you open doors
and windows in the kitchen during this procedure.

Installation Features

Cavity Cooling Fan

ILVE ovens are equipped with a
cavity cooling fan. The fan is
thermostatically controlled and
will switch on automatically when
the oven cavity reaches a
temperature of 60º C. Air will
gently be blown out through the
front louvre, just above the oven
door handle. This keeps the
interior of the cavity housing cool.

Cooktop

ILVE’s gas burners feature high
thermal efficiency, economical
energy consumption and
precision temperature settings,
allowing you to not only have
total control over cooking
temperatures but instant
response in temperature
changes and automatic
ignition. All ILVE cooktops meet
the highest standards of
operational efficiency required
for approval by the Australian
and European Gas Association.

Hob Burners

ILVE’s quad ring high intensity
burner is a high speed, high
temperature burner rated at

19.4 Mjh. It has a broad
diameter to provide even heat
across a maximum surface area
of a wok or frying pan allowing for
cooking efficiency and elimination

4

Normal Position

Reversed Position

of localised
hot spots
which can cause
burning and sticking.

ILVE’s conventional high
efficiency medium burners are
rated at 10 Mjh, while the small
burners are rated at 5 Mjh and
have a range of precision
temperature settings from low
simmer to medium and high.

ILVE’s multi fuel hobs
are equipped with the
usual combination
of conventional gas
burners with gas wok
burner but can also
be equipped with a
variety of specialized
electric hotplates.
Options include the
tepanyaki plate or the
electric volcanic rock
barbecue grill.

Low Simmer

A low simmer can be achieved by
selecting a temperature between
the off position and the high
flame position on the selector
knob. This feature is available on
ILVE models which have a flame
failure device (All except Compact
and Maxi gas cooktops). This fea­ture allows an accurate and safe
simmer and complete control
over the height of the flame.

Trivets

ILVE’s cooktop trivets are
designed to provide exceptional
stability for even the largest
woks, frying pans and pots.
The trivets are easily removable
for cleaning (See page 14).

Volcanic Rock
Barbecue Grill

ILVE’s volcanic rock
electric barbecue
grill is a low profile,
3cm deep, large
dimension barbe­cue which features
12 temperature
settings. Meat,
poultry and sea­food chargrilled on

the barbecue grill
remain succulent and moist while
developing subtle smoky flavours.
The volcanic rock barbecue grill
is easily disassembled for ease
of cleaning.

ILVE Range Hoods

A complete range of designer
range hoods are available for all
ILVE stoves and cooktops, please
consult your ILVE dealer for
further details.

Griddle Plate

Optional cast iron
griddle plates are
available for ILVE
cooktops. The griddle
plates fit over the cen­tre fish burner on 80,
90 120 and 150cm
cooktops.

For all other models the
griddle plates fit on the wok

burner. Please consult your
ILVE dealer for further details.

Pizza Stone

A flat ceramic pizza stone is
available from ILVE and is for
those cooks who like to make
cakes and pastries, bake bread
and make home made pizzas.
This pizza
stone
fits onto
any shelf
in the
oven and
comes
with its
own ideas
booklet.

Safety Flame
Failure Device

All burners on ILVE cooktop and
freestanding upright models,
excluding the Maxi and the
Compact series of gas cooktops,
have a unique safety flame failure
device. This feature instantly
stops the flow of gas to a burner,
if that burner is extinguished for
any reason. You will need to hold
the gas control knob in firmly
once it lights for 10-15 seconds
to override the thermocouple.

MODE 5 Full roof area conventional

grilling mode

In this mode the inner roof element
heats up creating direct infra-red heat.
This mode allows you to grill with the door
either ajar or closed.
Grilling with the door ajar may lead to the
control knob heating up slightly.

MODE 6 Hot air grilling system

This mode utilises the fan combined with the
infra-red grill to ensure hot air is circulated
evenly around the oven. This is the ideal
mode to use when multitasking, grilling chops
and sausages on the top level whilst baking
a potato bake on the lower level. The door
must be closed during this grilling mode.

There are two ways to grill food in an ILVE
electric oven; by using radiant heat to
cook the food or by using thermal grilling,
a combination of radiant heat with thermal
air flow.

The full roof area conventional grill system
uses automatically controlled direct
infra-red heat radiated from above for
traditional grilling applications. The electric
multifunction oven combines the advantages
of infra-red heat with fan forced air
assistance, allowing grilling on three levels
at the same time.

Both cooking techniques give exceptional
results for a wide range of meat cuts such
as chicken breasts, beef steaks, lamb and
pork. It is also ideal for grilling fish and
fish fillets.

Grilling Systems Electric

Traditional Grill

1. Select the grill mode (Mode 5)
on the function control knob.

2. Turn the temperature control
knob to 250º C.

The oven heating indicator light at
the front control panel comes on
when the thermostat is energised
and turns off once it has reached
the selected temperature setting.

ILVE TIP

■ When conventional grilling the
oven door should always be
open

■ The best settings for

conventional grilling is
between 175 – 190º C.

■ Care must be taken to make
sure that there is at least 8cm
between the top of items being
grilled and the grill element to
allow for unimpeded circulation
of hot air (shelf 4).

Fan Grilling

1. Position racks at heights
according to food types and
thickness (See hot air grill
cooking guide)

2. Select the fan grill mode
(Mode 5) on the function

control knob.

3. Turn the temperature control
knob to 175 – 180º C.

4. Allow oven to preheat for a
minimum of four minutes

depending on food types (See

hot air grill cooking guide).

When fan grilling on multiple
shelves the oven door must be
closed. The grill element at the
top of the oven produces
intense heat to sear the surface

6

of the meat while the fan moves
this heat around the oven.
Fan grilling eliminates the need
to turn food over during the
grilling process; however,
turning is optional depending on
the degree of browning desired.
When using this function make
sure that food is elevated to allow
the hot air to circulate around
the food. Food can be placed
on grill grid inside a grill tray
alternatively; meat can be placed
on a wire oven rack positioned
over an oven pan to make sure
any drips are caught.

ILVE TIP

■ The oven door should always
be closed during hot air grilling.

■ The temperature should be
set from 175 – 180º, this
range in temperature helps
prevent food from burning and
avoids splatter, minimising the
need for cleaning.

■ The shelves are numbered

4 to 1 from top to bottom
(See diagram above).

■ ILVE’s fan grill system can
be used to cook on multiple
shelves, for example grilling
meat on top shelf, lasagna on
middle shelf, garlic bread on
bottom shelf, while warming
plates on the bottom of the
oven.

Controlling smoke
and splatter while
grilling

When grilling items such as
sausages or fatty meats it is
advisable to add 1 cup of water
to the grill pan to control, drips,
splatter and smoke.

Shelf Positions

All ILVE electric ovens are multifunctional
and feature up to eleven cooking modes.
This enables you to choose from a variety of
pre-set functions depending on your cooking
needs. Selection of the correct mode and
oven temperature are important to obtain
the best possible cooking results. All modes
are pictured on your control knob and are
numbered anti-clockwise.

ILVE electric ovens are equipped with both top and bottom
elements, which can be used individually or together; radiating
heat from above and below simultaneously or individually for
specialist tasks such as au gratin style cooking, crisping pork
crackling or to brown off a roast.

By recessing the upper roof element and extending the cook­ing shelves to the rear of the oven, ILVE has created an oven
interior which on average is 30% larger than ovens of similar
style. These design features mean that more cooking space is
available, so large roasts or four to five racks of food can be
cooked easily.

The ILVE electric oven also has a quick start or preheat
mode which allows the oven to heat from 0 –180ºC in just
6 to 8 minutes.

PREPARING YOUR
ELECTRIC OVEN
FOR USE

Setting the clock

To enable use of your ILVE oven
you must first set the clock to
the correct time. If the clock is
not set correctly the oven will not
operate (See page 12)

Using the oven

When using your ILVE oven you
must select, using separate
knobs, both a mode of cooking
and a temperature at which to
cook. The only exception to this
rule is when using the defrost
mode or light mode, where no
temperature setting is required.

Temperature is indicated by an
ORANGE light. This light will turn
on and off during cooking as the
thermostat readjusts itself.

Cooking mode selection is
indicated by a GREEN light. This
light should stay on throughout
the cooking process.
All ILVE ovens are fitted with a
cavity cooling fan. This fan is
thermostatically controlled and
automatically switches on when
the oven cavity reaches 60ºC.
This gently blows air out through
the front lourve just above the
oven door handle, reducing
outside heat.

Temperature

ILVE ovens are well insulated and
therefore highly efficient; as a
result we recommend you may
have to adjust cooking tempera­tures. In an ILVE oven a moder-

ate to hot temperature is 175ºC.
You will find this temperature will
not need to be exceeded, except
for specific cooking requirements
which call for high heat over a
short period of time. Exceeding
175ºC when cooking may result
in food cooking too quickly on the
outside while remaining under­cooked inside.

Preheating

Always preheat your ILVE oven
before placing food in it. To do
this use the Quick Start mode
(Mode 9) on your control knob.
After the oven has reached
temperature, indicated by the
temperature light extinguishing,
you may then switch the oven
to your required mode.

Roasting probe

ILVE’s 948 model is equipped
with a microprocessor controlled
roasting probe which can be used
to cook roasts to a precise finish.
The probe is thermostatic and is
inserted into the thickest part of
the roast away from the bone.
When the probe is fitted to the
connection point, the thermom­eter activates. By pressing the

+ or – buttons you can program
the probe to the desired tem­perature for the roast (to reset
remove the probe from oven).

■ Roasting guide:
Rare 45 degrees
Medium 55 degrees
Well-Done 65 degrees
If the meat is left in the oven an
alarm will sound and the oven
will turn off when the desired
temperature is reached.

To cook with the light off, choose the required cooking function by turning selector
switch clockwise to the chosen function. Make one extra click clockwise and one
extra click anticlockwise and the oven will operate with the light off. To switch the
light back on, turn the selector one click anticlockwise and then two clicks clock­wise. Return knob to the desired operating function with one click anticlockwise.

MODE 2

Conventional

oven mode

This is the traditional static oven mode with no fan allowing heat from both above
and below to convect simultaneously. This is the ideal function for cooking heavy
cakes such as mud cakes or banana cakes, breads and large roasts. Such items
need to be placed in a central position in the oven. Mode 9 is also the self-cleaning
mode in models, which have self cleaning liners.

MODE 3

Lower floor

heating

mode

This mode allows heat from the base of the oven. It is suitable for long, slow
cooking such as stews and casseroles or for blind baking and finishing pastries.
This mode is also perfect when using the ILVE Pizza Stone, for perfect pizzas
cooked directly on the stone in a wood fired fashion.

MODE 4

Upper

element

mode

In this mode the upper element is in use. This is ideal for finishing omelettes,
browning dishes such as cauliflower au gratin or finishing off lemon meringue pies
or flans whose base has been previously baked using another mode.

MODE 5

Conventional
Grilling mode

In this mode the complete inner roof element heats up simultaneously creating
direct infra-red heat from above. This mode allows you to grill with the door either
ajar or closed. Grilling with the door ajar may lead to the control knob heating up
slightly.

MODE 6

Hot Air

Grilling mode

This mode utilises the fan combined with the infra-red grill to ensure hot air is
circulated evenly around the oven. This is the ideal mode to use when multitask­ing, grilling chops and sausages on the top level whilst baking a potato bake on the
lower level. For best results the door should be closed during this grilling mode.

MODE 7

Convection

heating

mode

With both the top and bottom elements in use and the fan circulating hot air,
this cooking mode is best suited for bread, cakes and sponges, where very even
temperatures are required, even in the corners of the oven.
This mode also creates less splatter when roasting.

MODE 8

Advanced

hot air

mode

The fan in all ILVE ovens is surrounded by a triple ring heating element that
evenly distributes heated air throughout the oven. This mode is perfect for batch
baking biscuits or muffins or for that large Christmas cake which requires low
temperature cooking over a long time period.

MODE 9

Quick Start

or Pre-heat

mode

To obtain the best result from your oven it is recommended that you preheat it
prior to use. Combining an advanced hot air function and conventional heating
mode ILVE ovens can reach a temperature of 180°C in just 8 – 10 minutes.
Once preheated the required cooking mode should be selected before proceeding
with cooking.

MODE 10

Defrost

mode

This function allows you to fan defrost at an ambient temperature.
Unlike defrosting using your microwave this mode does not dry or par-cook food.

Rotisserie

mode

(All models except

600mm and

700mm ovens)

The rotisserie mode works in a similar way as traditional grilling and is one of the
best ways to cook meat and poultry. With a right hand side motor drive in the
oven, or rear in the 300mm ovens the ILVE rotisserie can accommodate up to
three joints of meat or portions of poultry at once.

Roasting

probe

(Model 948 only)

ILVE’s 948 model is equipped with a microprocessor controlled roasting probe
which can be used to cook roasts to a precise finish either rare, medium or
well-done, taking the guess work out of cooking.

Electric Oven Cooking Modes

There are a four cooking options
available with ILVE Gas Ovens:

1. Static Gas Oven

2. Fan Forced Gas Oven

3. Rotisserie

4. Electric Grill

Cooking in your
gas oven

To use the gas oven open the
door fully and select your mode
of cooking, either static or fan
forced. To do this you must
turn the knob numbered
1 - 12 clockwise.
By turning the knob clockwise and
clicking it past 12, the fan-forced
function is turned on. You can
re-adjust the intensity of the grill
element between 1 and 12. If the
knob is not clicked past the 12
the oven will stay in static mode.
Once you have selected a mode
of cooking, the light will go on in
the oven.

Now press the thermostat knob
gently and turn it anticlockwise
towards maximum temperature
position (250°C.). Press the
thermostat knob right in to prime
the electric ignition and keep
pressing it for 10 - 15 seconds
to allow the thermocouple to heat
up and let the gas through. Make
sure that the gas has lit and,
after three minutes, close the
door, then select the temperature
(from 100°C to 250°C)*.

Electric grill

To use the electric grill in the gas
oven turn knob numbered 1 – 12
clockwise to the grilling icon (A)
then adjust the thermostat knob
to the required temperature.

ILVE TIP

■ Cooking with the electric grill
must be carried out with the
door of the oven closed.

■ The grill does not operate
when the gas function of the
oven is on.

■ It is advisable to preheat the
grill for 5 minutes before
putting food in.

■ Do not grill on the top level
of the oven - for even grilling
cook on the second level from
the top.

Rotisserie

Still using the grill function, this
function is also used as a rotis­serie in all ovens (except 60cm).
For example chicken, duck, beef
and lamb can be spit roasted
at temperatures up to 225°C.
Vegetables can be also be placed
in the baking tray whilst using the
rotisserie to add flavour to them.

Selecting the
ventilated gas or
electric function

(For models with a VENTILATED
GAS oven)
Turn the knob (pictured right) to
position 12 and then turn it past
position 12 as far as it will go in
a clockwise direction. This starts
up the radial fan which is located
inside the oven and provides
forced ventilation during cooking.
To light the ventilated electric grill
apply the same steps as above.

*NOTE: the electric grill will not
work whilst the gas oven is in
use.

1. Before you start

As a safety precaution always
switch off the power to the oven
before commencing any clean­ing or maintenance. Never use
abrasive scourers or spray any
chemical oven cleaners or caustic
solution on the catalytic oven liners
as this may cause damage, wash
instead with soapy water.

When removing oven shelves you
must slide shelf out to the stop­per using both hands before lifting
front of the shelf up and sliding
out. To replace shelves do the
reverse of the above. It is advised
that you wear oven mitts or heat
protective gloves if oven has been
turned on.

2. Catalytic self
cleaning liners

Every ILVE oven (with the excep­tion of the 200LM, 600LM and
800LM models) has catalytic lin­ers. These have been pre-installed
in your ILVE oven to make your life
easier. As you cook the liners will
absorb any fat that splatters keep­ing your oven cleaner. There can
be four liners in your oven; one on
either side, one on the rear and
one on the roof of your oven. Only
the side liners are removable.

To maintain your oven you must
regularly do a self clean to remove
the fat absorbed in the liners
during the cooking process. This
may be weekly, monthly or yearly
depending on oven usage. Fat build
up is easily distinguishable by a
slight discolouration of the liners.
To do a self clean you must at the
end of the cooking process, turn

ILVE’s exclusive turbowave cooking system
means lower and more accurate cooking
temperatures and a reduction in cooking
time and food splattering. These advances
in oven design and technology means that
ILVE ovens require less cleaning when
compared to other ovens.

The introduction of the catalytic oven
cleaning system of removable floor, racks
and door glass, means that the once
torturous task of cleaning your oven has
become simplified. It is important to note
that regular thorough cleaning will keep your
oven looking good for an extended time.

To maintain your oven you must do a self
clean on a regular basis, approximately
every three to four months of normal usage.
