10 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Operating instructiOns

freestanding cookers

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.

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.

• 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

Reversed Position

for height variation between shelves; this is a particularly useful feature when cooking with deep dishes, for large roasts or when batch cooking.

Normal Position

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.

2 Set oven temperature control knob to 200º C and select

cooking function mode 2 by turning function control knob.

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, 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 louvre just above the oven door handle, reducing outside heat.

Temperature

3 Allow to burn in for 10 to 15 minutes.

4 Repeat process for functions 5 and 8 in sequence and

allow to burn in each mode for 10 to 15 minutes.

5 Clean the oven thoroughly when you have completed the

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

• 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.

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 moderate 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. Remember to reduce the temperature by 20ºC when using the fan forced function.

11ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Most ILVE electric ovens are multifunctional and feature 10 or 11 cooking modes (secondary ovens

excempt. This enables you to choose from a variety of 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 clockwise.

ILVE electric ovens are equipped with rear, 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.

The ILVE electric oven also has a quick start or preheat mode which allows the oven to heat from 0 –175oC in just 6 to 8 minutes.

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.

The cavity cooling fan will continue to run after the oven has been turned off. The fan will automatically shut off once the oven cavity has reached a suitable temperature.

MODE 1 Pizza mode

for pizza cooking) ILVE’s pizza mode will do the rest by turning on all elements in the oven at 30% and the bottom element on at 100% of their capacity. This ensures you get a nice crispy base with the assistance of the other elements at lower heat to cook the top of your pizza. For best results it is recommended that ILVE’s pizza stone be used on the middle shelf when using this function.

MODE 3 Lower floor heating mode

MODE 4 Upper element mode

MODE 5 Conventional Grilling mode

Rotisserie mode (All models except 600mm and P70 Series ovens)

MODE 6 Fan Grill

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, Christmas cakes, breads and large roasts. Such items need to be placed in a central position in the oven.

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.

In this mode the upper outer element is in use. The permits ‘Au Gratin’ style cooking for a firm crust.

In this mode the complete inner roof element heats up creating direct infra-red heat from above. With this mode you should grill with the door closed.

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 in the rear of the 300mm & 400mm ovens. The ILVE rotisserie can accommodate up to two joints of meat or portions of poultry at once.

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 8 Fan Forced

MODE 9 Quick Start or Pre-heat mode

MODE 10 Defrost mode

Roasting probe (For models 948 Series, 600SSXMP & Majestic Series only)

PLEASE NOTE: To turn the oven light on or off during cooking,

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.

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 and most general cooking tasks. IMPORTANT – Ensure you reduce the temperature by 20°C. Mode 8 is also the self-cleaning mode in models, which have self cleaning liners.

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 175°C in just 6 – 8 minutes. Once preheated the required cooking mode should be selected before proceeding with cooking.

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.

Some ILVE models are 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.

14 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Preheating

freestanding cookers

Always preheat your ILVE oven to at least 175oC before placing food in it. To do this use the Quick Start mode (Mode 9) on your control knob. Set your oven to 175oC, after the oven has reached temperature, indicated by the temperature light turning off, you may then switch the oven to your required mode.

Roasting Probe

ILVE’s premium models are 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 fromt he 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).

How To Use The Roasting Probe

Before putting the meat into the oven, insert the sharp end of the probe into the centre of your cut of meat being sure to keep away from any bones as this will give a false reading to the temperature detector. Then insert the other end of the probe into the connection point at the top right hand corner of your over, you will notice your display now shows two sets of numbers – the numbers on the left represent the meat at that time, the numbers on the right represent the desired temperature you would like the meat to be at the end of cooking. To alter this, press the + or – buttons until you get the desired temperature.

Roasting guide:

• Rare 60°C

• Medium 70°C

• Well-Done 80°C

If the meat is left in the oven an alarm will sound and the oven will turn off when the desired temperature is reached. Set the function and thermostst knobs to your desired settings and your oven will do the rest. If you like you can also use the minute minder whilst using this feature for multi-tasking.

15ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

There are two ways to grill food in an ILVE electric oven;

grilling systems

electric

freestanding cookers

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. ILVE ovens combine the advantages of infra-red heat with fan forced air assistance, allowing grilling and baking on two different levels at the same time.

Traditional grill

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

2. Turn the temperature control knob to 200º C.

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

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.

MODE 5 Full roof area conventional grilling mode

ILVE TIP

• When conventional grilling

the oven door should always

be closed

• The best settings for conventional

grilling is between 175 – 190º C.

• For best results, we recommend

grilling on level 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 6) on the function control knob.

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

4. Allow oven to preheat for a minimum of four minutes depending on food types.

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

MODE 6 Hot air grilling system

16 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

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 of the food 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 the grill rack that sits inside the baking tray alternatively; food can be placed on a grill rack positioned over an oven pan to make sure any drips are caught.

ILVE TIP

freestanding cookers

• 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 5 to

1 from top to bottom

(See diagram above right).

IMPORTANT!

Do not place anything on or cover the base of oven as this impedes the transfer of heat from the bottom element to the oven cavity and can cause irreparable damage to the oven base.
