Operating Instructions

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

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.

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

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 re-adjusts itself.

Burning in elements

It is necessary to burn the protective oils that are used in
manufacturing 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.

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.

burn off procedure. As a result we suggest you open doors
and windows in the kitchen during this procedure.

Cooking mode selection is indicated
by a GREEN light. This light should
stay on throughout the cooking
process.

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 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.

9ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Oven Systems

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 may 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.

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.

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.

12 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

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.

Preheating

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 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).

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60ºC

• Medium70ºC

If the meat is left in the oven an alarm
will sound and the oven will turn ff 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.

13ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Grilling Systems Electric

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. 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.

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.

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.

ILVE Tip

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
closed. Grilling with the door open 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.

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.

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.

Using the Rotisserie

ILVE’s Rotisserie mode is represented by one of these symbols:

How to use your Rotisserie

• Remove all oven shelves and the wire grid from the grill tray and pre-heat the oven to 175°C.

• Sit the rotisserie cradle on to the grill tray.

• Slide one fork onto the rotisserie rod and secure with the wing nut.

• Slide your cut of meat onto the rod being sure to pierce the centre of the cut. If cooking a whole

chicken remember to truss the legs first. Then slide on the other fork and secure the wing nut.

• Place the rod onto the cradle.

• Slide the grill tray onto shelf number 1 and insert the right hand end of the rod into the round motor
casing. The indentation on the left end of the rod should be sitting on top of the cradle so it turns easily.

• Turn the function knob to Grill mode 5. The rotisserie will start turning.

• When the meat is cooked remove from the cradle by using the rotisserie hook and plastic handle. Using the
hook, lift the left hand end of the rod and remove it from the motor socket. Slide the grill tray out and using the

black plastic handle on the left hand end, wind onto the rod. Then with the hook on the right hand end of the

rod, lift the rod off the cradle and onto your serving plate.

• You can also use the black plastic handle to loosen the wing nuts of the forks.

18 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

PRACTICAL HINTS FOR USE

WARNING

Do not use pots which exceed the width of the trivet (the trivet is the frame with fingers that
the pot sits on). If pot size exceeds the edge of the trivet, flames could cause damage to work
surfaces either side of the burner. Do not use pots which are too small for the burner size,
they become unstable on the trivet.

Always use a vessel for cooking that is appropriate in size for the size of burner. Never use
pots that are too small or too large. For wok cooking it is recommended that a domestic size
wok, no larger than 400mm in diameter be used.

Always use the small pot trivet for pots with a base smaller than 100mm.
Use a strong flame to bring liquids to boil, seal meat and generally for all food which must be
cooked rapidly i.e. when using a wok.

Use a low flame for sauces or stews.

Do not cook food over too strong a heat. Boiling food fast does not cook any faster but
violently stirs up the food causing it to lose flavour.

19ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Tepanyaki Plate (Fry Top)

A = cooking tray
B = drip tray
C = exhaust flue for combustion fumes

The Fry-Top is composed of a special stainless steel plate (8mm thick), specially designed to have
temperatures evenly distributed over the whole surface so that you can utilise the complete
cooking surface. The plate also has hygienic advantages.

Another advantage is the high heat accumulation of the plate, with very low heat loss. To use
the appliance, light the flame below the plate by means of the corresponding knob (see
“Lighting the burners”) and ensure that the flame is burning.
Leave the knob in this position for about 10 minutes at the most and wait for the plate to heat
up. Once this period has elapsed, the plate is ready to start cooking.
By adjusting the flame, there is no limit to your culinary imagination. If you turn the knob to
minimum, you can do slow cooking or types of cooking in which you want to maintain the
organic properties of the foods. Higher temperatures are suitable for cooking meat, fish and
vegetables.

The Fry-Top plate is ideal for Japanese Tepanyaki cooking: the special lid needed for this type of
Oriental cooking is available as an optional accessory.
Some models are supplied with the spatula shown in above, which is useful for both cooking
and for cleaning the plate.

recommended as a great cleaning solution (Available online).

21ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Simmer Plate (Coup Feu)

Use of the Coup Feu

The large “Coup feu” solid cast iron plate made of concentric rings allows you to rest the pan
(or even several pans) directly on the surface (fig. B, C). it is heated by means of a gas burner (fig. A).
The plate is designed to provide a moderately intense heat which is well distributed over the surface.
This is ideal for slow cooking and particularly for sauces, browning and grilling, heating dishes or
keeping them warm. Switch the burner on 15/20 minutes before use to allow the cast iron plate
to accumulate heat. You will then be able to use the plate even when switched off for a further 10/15
minutes. The middle of the plate is the area where the highest temperatures are reached whereas the
outer part is cooler. By simply moving the pan from the middle to the outside of the plate, you can obtain
different cooking intensities without regulating the flame. Pan dimensions permitting, several dishes can be
cooked at the same time (fig. C). if necessary it can be used as a handy top, providing ample space for
resting pots and pans.

Cleaning the Coup Feu

The hotplate should be cleaned while still warm using the products normally used in the kitchen for metal
surfaces. Rub with a wire pad, following the direction of the satin finish. Dry well immediately. If you want
to give the plate a better appearance, after cleaning, apply a coat of Supercromo paste.

If you do not intend to use the hotplate for long periods, after normal cleaning apply a thin film of liquid
paraffin (Vaseline oil) with a wad of cotton wool. This treatment is necessary to prevent any formation of
surface oxides. When next turning on the plate you will notice the evaporation of the paraffin oil used. This
phenomenon will disappear in a few seconds. The hotplate may sometimes present surface oxidation due
to the presence of humidity, but above all due to lack of use. You are therefore advised to use it frequently
to prevent any oxidation. Never leave the hotplate damp. If the oxidation phenomenon still appears, use
lightly abrasive paper to remove it, taking care to rub gently, always in the direction of the plate satin finish.

Do not cook food directly on the plate surface. Always use suitable containers / cooking equipment.

Electric BBQ (Lava Grill)

The Lava Stone BBQ allows you BBQ meats and fish with out the use of oils.
The lava stones placed under the electric element enables a constant
temperature (250°C) and the absorption of fats without smell and vapor.
The grid, tray and lava stones are easily removable for the cleaning.
Before turning on the appliance, check that all parts are well installed.
To turn on the BBQ rotate the knob to the desired setting between
“1” and “12”; the indicator light will be illuminated, indicating that the
appliance is working. When the knob is turned to the “0” position the
appliance is turned OFF and the indicator light will go out.
Important: To grill, we recommend pre-heating the grill element and lava
stones for approximately 10 minutes on position “12”, this allows the
lava stones to reach the required temperature to vapourise the fats and
liquids from the meat to enhance the flavour of the produce being cooked.

Cooking Table

CARING AND CLEANING FOR YOUR LAVA STONE BBQ

Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the mains. Cleaning must be carried out when the
appliance is cold. Remove all the removable parts. Remove the grid, lift the heating element and take
away the hob bed with lava stones. Stainless steel parts must be cleaned with water and detergent, then
dry with a soft cloth carefully. Under no circumstances use corrosive or abrasive detergent, this could
damage the appliance. Stainless steel, brass or copper parts must be treated by using the proper
products, thus keeping the brightness for a long time.
Control Panel and aluminum parts must be cleaned by means of degreasing detergent.

Ceramic Electric Hot Plate

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE ELECTRIC PLATE

The vitreous ceramic electric plate (5) is controlled by a knob (as above energy regulator). A pilot light
comes on as soon as the heating element is activated. The control knob is graded from 0 to 12. Position 0
indicates that the corresponding cooking area is switched off. Position 1 indicated that the corresponding
cooking area is at the minimum power, while position 12 indicates that the cooking area is at maximum
power.

The energy regulator controls the cooking area with two circuits (5). When the knob is turned clockwise
from position (off) to the desired position (1-12), the primary part of the cooking area is switched on. To
switch on the secondary part, turn the knob to position 12 and then turn it past position 12 as far as it will
go in a clockwise direction. At this point the secondary circuit switches on too and it is possible to vary
the power from 1 to 12 (1 = minimum, 12 = maximum)

RESIDUAL HEAT WARNING LIGHTS

Important: The ceramic hob cooking surface remains hot for a long time after use. Do not touch the hob
with your hands or let children near it. The residual heat indicator (Q) will remain lit until the hob has cooled
down.
If any cracks appear in the ceramic hot, disconnect the appliance immediately from the mains and call an
authorised technical service centre

ELECTRIC HOTPLATE

For efficient use and low energy consumption, it is advised to use pans specifically designed for electric
cooking on ceramic hobs. The bottom of the pan must be thick and flat. Its diameter must be as similar as
possible to that of the cooking ring. The surface of the hob and the bottom of the pan must be kept clean.

A – Do not leave the hotplate switched on without a pan
B – Do not wet or overheat the plates
C – Avoid sudden changes of temperature on the ceramic hob. For example, do not pour cold water onto

the hot hob.

24 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

D – Ensure that the pan covers the whole cooking area.
E – The bottom of the pan must be flat and dry so as to use less energy and keep your ceramic hob in

good condition.

F – Do not leave the pan handles sticking out as they could be knocked over accidentally.
G – Do not forget that the cooking area remains hot for quite a long time even after it has been switched

off. Make intelligent use of this characteristic by switching off the cooking area a few minutes before

completing cooking. The residual heat that has been accumulated in the ceramic will thus enable you

to complete cooking without using more electric power.

H – It is preferable not to cook on the ceramic hob with pans that have been used on gas burners. The

flames will have deformed the bottom of the pans. Do not use aluminium pans on your ceramic cook
top as this metal is very soft and can damage and/or permanently stain your cook top.

Cooking Table - (The following table is a guide only to settings for a variety of foods.)

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB

The flat surface of the ceramic hob makes it considerably easier to clean than traditional hobs. Clean the
hob in the same way as any glass surface in your home. For more accurate cleaning, a special product
may be used which can be supplied by Ilve Spare Parts. Never use abrasive products. Routine cleaning
must be carried out when the hob is cold. Caution: take care not to drop substances containing sugar on
the hob during operation. If this should happen, immediately turn off the respective heating element and
clean with warm soapy water before the glass cools. When performing this special cleaning, take
particular care not to burn yourself.

We recommend cleaning the cooking top once it has cooled down. The stainless steel and painted parts
must be cleaned with lukewarm water and anti-corrosive liquid detergents. Dry the parts with a soft cloth.

Never use steel wools or abrasive detergents. The brilliance of the stainless steel, brass and copper is
obtained by using periodically detergents or similar products. The instrument panel and all the aluminum
parts must be cleaned only with alcohol or degreasing products. Never use lemon on

The ILVE induction cooktops have been designed to make your cooking quick and easy. When using an
Induction cooktop you will need to use specific cookware, this is due to induction technology using
magnetic fields which transfer the cooking energy to the base of your cookware. You need to make sure
that the cookware you are using has a magnetic base.

Due to the cooktop needing a magnetic base to work, the cooktop will not start to generate heat until it
comes into contact with the magnetic field the cookware will create. Once the saucepan is removed the
cooktop will automatically shut down until magnetic contact is reintroduced.

Even though the cooktop uses the base of your cookware as the heating element and not the cooktop
you should still be aware that the cooktop surface may still be hot from residual heat. The cooktop display
will have a

Cookware bases that will work on induction surface: enamel, cast Iron, stainless steel or magnetic bases.
Cookware bases that will not work on induction: copper, glass, ceramic, aluminum.

appear to indicate to you the surface may be hot and you should not touch it.

SAFETY DEVICES

Your ILVE induction cooktop has been installed with some safety devices. If you happen to boil dry a
saucepan or pot, or if the cooktop reaches a dangerous temperature the cooktop will shut down
automatically to prevent any harm to itself or your kitchen. The cooktop will also beep at you to alert you
of a problem.

The cooktop is also fitted with a spill detection device, this means that if you have left something
unattended and there happens to be a boil over, once the cooktop control panels senses a spill it will
automatically shut down and beep at you to come and check what has happened.

TURNING ON THE COOKTOP

A cooking area is switched on by turning the respective knob clockwise. The set power level appears on
the hob display (1-9). A cooking area is switched off by turning the respective knob anti-clockwise. The
symbol (0) appears on the hob display for 3 seconds, and then it disappears from the display or changes
to the symbol (H), if the cooking hob is still hot. The cook top will automatically switch off if any conditions
of excess temperature or errors in power supply occur.

Induction Cooktop continued

POWER BOOSTER FUNCTION

The purpose of the booster function is to give more power to a determined area in order to reduce the
necessary cooking time. This function is activated by turning the knob clockwise all the way to the final
position. The Symbol (P) appears on the display, meaning that the booster function is activated. The
booster function has a maximum duration of 10 minutes. The area concerned will then return to power
setting (9).

KEY LOCK FUNCTION

The key lock function is useful if there are children at home. The key lock function is activated, with the
knobs in position (0), by turning the first and last cooktop controls anticlockwise. The letters

appear on the display.

AUTOMATIC BOIL AND REDUCE FUNCTION

The heat up function, or quick heating, is available on each cooking area. This means that for a
defined time the cooking area works at maximum power and at the end of this time the power is
automatically brought to the set level. In this case the duration depends on the set power level. The heat
up function is activated by turning the knob anticlockwise from position (0) to the final position. As soon
as the control is turned to the left, a letter (A) is shown on the display for the area. After it has been
activated you must set a power level to continue cooking within 3 seconds.

Induction Tepanyaki Cooktop

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE INDUCTION TEPANYAKI PLATE

There are a few differences between our models when it comes to Induction cooking. For use of your
freestanding induction cook top refer to the notes above. The tepanyaki plate with induction is similar
except for two main points. You don’t need to have a booster on a tepanyaki plate.Boost is mainly used
when boiling water. And there is also no need for a keep warm function as tepanyaki style cooking is
predominately used on a high heat. It does have an automatic boil and reduce function. Refer to the notes
above.

The tepanyaki plate needs about 5 minutes to preheat. You can use the induction zones with out the
tepanyaki plate if preferred. Take care when removing and replacing the plate as it is very heavy and if
dropped onto the glass it could cause damage.

27ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

Gas Ovens

IMPORTANT: The oven will not light unless the oven door is fully open.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT SURFACES. ALLOW OVEN TO COOL BEFORE WIPING SPILLAGES. Should
a spill occur, allow surface to cool and wipe up the spillage from the cover over the burner, then
remove the burner cover by sliding it towards the front of the oven and lifting it out. Wipe up any
excess spillage that may have migrated into the base of the oven.

There are upto five cooking options available with ILVE gas ovens (depending on the oven size):

1. Static Gas Oven

2. Fan Forced Gas Oven

3. Fan Grill

4. Static Grill

5. Rotisserie (80cm + 90cm Ovens Only)

IMPORTANT: When your gas oven is being operated for the first time it is important to burn off
the protective oils that are used in manufacturing from the grill element. To do this see ( using
your grill element below ) and set the temperature to 9 and allow to burn for 15 minutes.

Lighting your gas oven

The oven will not light unless the oven door is fully open. To turn on the gas oven, open the oven door and turn the thermostat
knob (B) anti-clockwise to 250ºC and hold in for approximately 15 seconds. This will heat the thermocouple and allow the gas
to flow through. (You do not need to use the knob (A) marked 1-12 at this stage.) You can tell that the oven is alight, looking
through the small holes situated in the base of the oven you should see the flame.

Once the flame is lit, the door must stay open for 3 minutes (this ensures there is enough oxygen to keep the flame alight.)
Then with the temperature knob (B) select the temperature required. Temperature range is from 100°C – 250°C. To achieve
100°C on the temperature knob (not visibly marked), there is a section when you turn the knob (B) towards the off position
where it won’t allow the knob to move/turn anymore without the knob being pressed in (which turns the oven off), and this is
the 100°C gauge.

To turn the light on inside the oven whist cooking turn the Function knob (A) to the very first icon (square box with light picture
and rotisserie) this will turn the light on. At this stage the oven is heating from the base (gas flames are under the removable
floor). There are 5 shelf levels in your oven. Level 1 is the bottom and level 5 is the top. For most cooking it is recommended
to use shelf levels 3 or 4.

FAN OFF OTHERWISE THE GRILL WILL BECOME ACTIVE.

IMPORTANT - AFTER USING THE FAN ASSISTED MODE IN YOUR GAS OVEN, MAKE SURE YOU TURN THE

Using the different functions in your gas oven

To use the Fan Forced function in the gas oven, once you have closed the door turn the Function knob (A) past the number
12, you will feel a click and hear the fan activate. This is now Fan Forced Gas Oven mode.

To turn off Fan Forced, turn the Function knob (A) back to the light icon. The benefit of Fan Forced Gas Oven is that the heat
is distributed evenly through the whole oven. The rear fan circulates the air creating even temperatures inside the oven cavity.
Fan Forced is most beneficial when doing batch/multi level cooking.

Grilling

The Function knob (A) is for the grill function also. The grill is electric and will not work whilst the gas oven is on. To activate
the grill turn knob (A) clockwise to number 8. This is equivalent to 180C. You can use the grill as a static grill (normal grilling
with radiant heat) or you can choose to have fan grill.

Static Grill

This is great for an intense heat e.g. Cheese toast, oyster Kilpatrick, Crème Brule. Static grill cooking use Level 4 for the best
results.

Fan Grill

This is great for cooking meat e.g. – skewers, sausages, cutlets and chicken pieces (wings and drumsticks.) On this function
there is no need to turn the foods, the grill will brown the top of the food and the hot air which is being circulated by the rear
fan, will cook it from the underside, locking in the juices and keeping the heat inside the oven. To activate the fan grill, turn
knob (A) past the number 12 until you hear a click. This has activated the fan. Then turn the knob back to number 8 which is
the best temperature for fan grilling. Keep the door closed when using fan grill.

This is done on the static grill function. The rotisserie can weight
bear up to 8kg. Skewer your desired meats onto the rotisserie
rod and secure in place with the forks. Set up baking tray (black
tray) with the rotisserie cradle, this goes into level 1. Place
meat inside oven and turn Function knob (A) to 12 for the first
8 minutes. This helps to ensure the skin will seal and lock in
juices. After the 8 minutes, turn down to number 6 or 7.
When the meat is cooked, remove from oven and allow to rest
before carving. If you wish to cook your roast potatoes, put them
in the oven at the same time as the meat. They will take longer to
cook compared to normal roasting. Whilst the meat is resting, you
may want to brown off the potatoes if desired. To do this, move
the baking dish to level 4, turn function knob (A) to 9 and grill for
5 minutes or until browned.

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

Cooking In Your ILVE Gas Oven

An ILVE fan forced gas oven has the

base burner situated under the oven

floor. The advantage of ILVE’s fan forced

gas oven is that the heat is distributed

evenly throughout, which makes it ideal

for batch baking. However, the lower

shelf is the hottest when baking so

experiment with different shelf positions

to obtain the best results.

The thermostat in ILVE gas ovens is

mechanical; it operates on a different

system than electric ovens. There is no

indicator light on the front of the panel of

the upright to show you when the oven

has reached the correct temperature,

however the gas oven heats up fairly

quickly due to the powerful gas burner at

the base of the oven.

A moderate to hot temperature in gas

ovens is 175°C. You cannot switch

between the mode of cooking in the

gas oven like you can in the electric – if

you are cooking on the fan forced and

then wish to use the grill then you must

start again and activate the electric grill

element.

Cakes

Cook cakes on the third shelf from the

top on fan forced at approximately

150°C. This will give the cake a great

colour and texture.

Biscuits

If doing more than one tray of biscuits

at a time then use the top three levels

only. The bottom shelf in oven is far too

close to the burner and biscuits will burn

underneath.

(B)

Thermostat knob

Cook your biscuits at 140°C on fan

forced so they cook evenly.

Muffins

Cook at 175°C on the third shelf from the

top of the oven on fan forced. Muffins

cook very well in the gas oven with a

great texture and very even colour .

Roasting

Cook at 175°C on fan forced for half an

hour per 500g. The gas oven is fantastic

for roasting – the meat tends to be very

moist and browns very well. Best cooked

on the ILVE baking tray.

Grilling

Grilling must be done on the second level

from the top of the oven; the top level is

too close to the grill.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

Always wipe spills up when they occur. Do not leave spills to dry
onto the surface of the hob.

IMPORTANT – DO NOT PLACE ANYTHING ON OR COVER
THE BASE OF THE OVEN AS THIS IMPEADS THE TRANSFER
OF HEAT FROM THE BOTTOM ELEMENT TO THE OVEN
CAVITY AND CAN CAUSE IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO THE
OVEN ENAMEL LINING. DO NOT TOUCH HOT SURFACES,
ALLOW HOTPLATE TO COOL BEFORE CLEANING

ILVE’s advanced 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.

The introduction of the catalytic oven cleaning system and
removable racks and door glass means that the task of
cleaning your oven has become simplified. It is important to
note that regular cleaning will keep your oven looking great
and operating better for an extended time.

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

NOTE: Fat build up is easily distinguished by a slight
discolouration of the liners

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 600LM and Built-in Gas Oven
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.

30 ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

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 the oven
thermostat to 200 °C in fan forced
mode for 20–30 minutes. Always ensure
that you remove excess trays (be aware
as oven racks & trays will be hot), side
racks and the fat filter as any fat will
burn on these items making cleaning
extremely difficult. It is recommended to
clean the glass with hot soapy water on
a regular basis to prevent a build up of
burnt on fat.

Leave the oven with the door closed
and in this time the fat absorbed in the
catalytic liners will burn off the liners
and the elements.

All ILVE ovens use easy clean vitreous
enamel interiors giving a smooth black
non staining appearance.

Once the oven is cool you may need to
wipe the base of the oven with a damp
sponge to remove the product of the
burn off. The side liners can be washed
in hot soapy water and are to be dried
before placing them back in the oven.

The enamel of the oven should be
wiped with warm, soapy water at
regular intervals and after each use
when cooking recipes with a high salt
and or lemon content.

B. Removal of inner glass
ILVE oven doors are fitted with
athermic door glass panels, the inner
panels are removable. To remove glass
open the door fully and lift latches (A)
and hook into arm (B) on both sides
and unscrew the thumb screws (D&E)
located on the top of door, remove top
strip and gently remove glass (F&G)
before washing in hot soapy water. The
interior glass can also be cleaned with
a damp cloth. When replacing the glass
it is important that the tinted surface
faces in towards the interior of the oven
and that the top strip is replaced before
screwing the glass back in place.

Please note: The oven door glass
must be replaced the same way it was
removed with the tint facing the inside
of the oven.

A

B

The fat filter at the rear of your oven
has to be cleaned on a regular basis;
the filter can be cleaned with hot soapy
water, or in the dishwasher

NOTE: It is important that you to not
use any caustic oven cleaner as this
will ruin the liners

3. Removal of door & inner
glass

For ease of cleaning ILVE have made
their oven doors removable so that
the interior oven glass can be removed
and cleaned.

A. Removal of door
Open the door fully and lift latches (A)
and hook into arm (B) on both sides.
Lift door gently upwards (C), as if
closing, using both hands placed either
side of the outer glass edge and door
should loosen. Gently pull the door
up towards you. If force is needed the
door is not in the correct position and
you will need to repeat the procedure.
To refit the door reverse the procedure.

IMPORTANT: NEVER USE
ALUMINIUM FOIL ON THE BASE OF
THE OVEN OR ON ANY ENAMEL
SURFACE INCLUDING THE BAKING
TRAY.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

Cooktops

Clean the stainless steel cooktop surface after each use with a clean cloth and normal detergent. Make
sure the detergent does not contain chloride or any chloride compound. For persistent stains use warm
vinegar or a non-abrasive cleaner. To make cleaning easier always wipe spills when they occur, do not
leave them to dry as this makes cleaning harder.

Trivets

Trivets should only be cleaned once they have cooled, to stop crazing from occurring. To clean trivets,
wash in sink with warm soapy water then dry immediately using a clean dry cloth. Do not use anything
too abrasive such as a chrome detergent as this may cause damage. The alkalinity of dishwashing
detergents could damage the trivets. If you choose to wash the trivets in the dishwasher we recommend
you use a hot rinse mode with no detergent. Enameled trivets may over a period of time discolour, this is
due to exposure to a naked flame which may burn the enamel edge off the tips of trivets. This will not
affect the performance of the cooktop. To remove surface staining use any cooking oil and a fine brush or
scourer, lightly oiling trivets will also help in keeping their new appearance.

Burner caps

The burner caps sit on the brass burners. To clean, remove and wash in warm water. Burner caps should
not be put into cold water immediately after use, as crazing will occur, always allow caps to cool before
cleaning.

Brass burners

The brass burners will tarnish to a brown colour with use. To clean simply scrub with QuicKleen S
(Available online) or soak in white vinegar for two hours to remove food splatter.

Aluminium skirts

The aluminium skirt from the base of the burner may be washed in warm soapy water using a gentle
scouring pad to remove any burnt on food splatter. A commercial product such as Autosol, which is
designed for cleaning aluminium, can be used following makers’ instructions. Do not put skirts in the
dishwasher as this may cause the aluminium to discolour. You can also use QuicKleen S (available at all
ILVE Showrooms or shop.ilve.com.au).

Stainless steel

Stainless steel can be cleaned using the ILVE cleaning cloth available from ILVE or a range of commercial
products and stainless steel cleaners. Follow makers’ instructions, taking care when cleaning around the
graphics. When cleaning, be sure to follow the grain of the stainless steel as much as possible. Never
use abrasive products on the stainless steel as it will scratch the stainless steel. Take care not to drop
substances containing sugar on the hob, if this does happen clean with warm water immediately before
the glass cools.

Oven light replacement

Replacement globes are available from the Ilve service department. When changing over the lamp always
switch off the power first. Unscrew the glass cover over the globe by twisting it anticlockwise. If glass
cover is hard to unscrew, heat oven slightly, as this will heat any fat that might be congealed around the
glass, and unscrew using a cloth. Remove existing globe and fit new bulb, refit the glass cover and switch
on the power.

ILVE Freestanding Operating Manual

NOTE: The light may be difficult to remove over time. Try using Multi-Grips being sure NOT to break the
bulb and/or glass.

Rangehoods

Rangehood filters need to be washed regularly by using warm soapy water and dried using a soft
dry cloth. There are various commercial products available which also may be used. Follow
manufacturers’ directions for use. Cleaning filters in the dishwasher: The heavy alkalinity of dishwashing
detergents could damage filters. If you choose to wash the filters in the dishwasher we recommend you
use a hot rinse mode with no detergent. Quickleen R is recommended as a great cleaning solution
(Available online)

burner caps and burner head assemblies and skirts. Using a flat bladed screwdriver remove the five
screws, one in each corner of the hotplates left and right spillage bowls and one centrally located at the
rear of the centre spillage bowl. Care must be taken to ensure that no damage occurs to the spark ignition
leads, igniters or thermocouples (if fitted). Disconnect all ancillary gas piping. Remove the two securing
screws from the positioning brackets at the front and also the securing bracket near the gas inlet point to
the burner compartment. The gas manifold may than be extracted. Replacement is a reversal of the above
procedure.

ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE GAS CONNECTION IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE SERVICING APPLIANCE

Conversion

If the appliance is to be used with another gas type, either ULPG Gas or Natural Gas, it must be converted
by an Authorised Person. Contact Eurolinx Pty Ltd or their unathorized agent for details. For Natural and
ULPG Gas Injector Sizes and Mj/H refer to tables on pages 39. The table above shows the
appropriate injector sizes for either ULPG Gas or Natural Gas.

NOTE

After conversion check the GAS PRESSURE and IGNITER OPERATION for the burners. If the hotplate
cooker cannot be adjusted to perform correctly, or if there is excessive flame discolouration, yellow tipping
or excessive noise contact ILVE or their authorised agent for advice. It is also recommended
that this appliance be serviced at 12 months minimum intervals or sooner as required. Please also ensure
that the duplicate data plate supplied be attached to the appliance or in an accessible place such as a
cupboard for future reference.

IMPORTANT: Verify periodically the gas connection pipe and replace it as soon as any irregularity is present.

IMPORTANT: Correct positioning of the brass flame distributor is very important. For this purpose, ensure that

the flame distributor tooth coincides with the notch on the aluminum base. To keep the flame
distributor covers new, you are advised to remove them before lighting the flame.

WARRANTY

1. Warranty
ILVE warrants that each ILVE product will remain, for

a period of twenty four (24) months computed from
the date of purchase of the ILVE product, free from
defects arising in the manufacture of the ILVE product
(“Warranty”). Except for consumer guarantees set
out in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)
(“Act”), ILVE does not make any further warranties or
representations in relation to ILVE products.

The Warranty does not apply if an ILVE product is
defective by a factor other than a defect arising in the
manufacture of the ILVE product, including but not
limited to:

(a) damage through misuse (including failure to
maintain, service or use with proper care), neglect,
accident or ordinary wear and tear (including
deterioration of parts and accessories and glass
breakage);

(b) use for purpose for which the ILVE product was not
sold or designed;

(c) use or installation which is not in accordance with
any specied instructions for use or installation;

(d) use or operation after a defect has occurred or been
discovered;

(e) damage through freight, transportation or handling
in transit (other than when ILVE is responsible);

(f) damage through exposure to chemicals, dusts,
residues, excessive voltage, heat, atmospheric
conditions or other forces or environmental factors
outside the control or ILVE;

(g) repair, modication or tampering by the purchaser
or any person other than ILVE, an employee of ILVE or
an authorised ILVE service contractor*;

(h) use of parts, components or accessories which have
not been supplied or specically approved by ILVE.
(i) damage to surface coatings caused by cleaning or
maintenance using products not recommended in the
ILVE product handbook provided to the purchaser upon
purchase of the ILVE product;

(j) damage to the base of an electric oven due to items
having been placed on the base of the oven cavity or
covering the base, such as aluminium foil (this impedes
the transfer of heat from the element to the oven cavity
and can result in irreparable damage); or

(k) damages, dents or other cosmetic imperfections not
affecting the performance of the ILVE in respect of an
ILVE product purchased as a “factory second” or from
display.

The Warranty does not extend to light globes used in
ILVE products.

3. Domestic Use
Each ILVE product is made for domestic use. This

Warranty may not extend to ILVE products used for
commercial purposes.

4. Time for Claim under the Warranty
You must make any claim under this Warranty within

twenty eight (28) days after the occurrence of an event
which gives rise to a claim pursuant to the Warranty, by

Warranty unless ILVE determines the expenses are
reasonable, in which case the customer must claim
those expenses by providing written evidence of
each expense to ILVE at the address on the Warranty
Registration Card.

7. Statutory Rights
(a) These terms and conditions do not affect your

statutory rights.
(b) The limitations on the Warranty set out in this

document do not exclude or limit the application of the
consumer guarantees set out in the Act or any other

equivalent or corresponding legislation in the relevant
jurisdiction where to do so would:
(i) contravene the law of the relevant jurisdiction; or
(ii) cause any part of the Warranty to be void.
(c) ILVE excludes indirect or consequential loss of any

kind (including, without limitation, loss of use of the
ILVE product) and (other than expressly provided for in

these terms and conditions) subject to all terms,
conditions and warranties implied by custom, the

general law, the Act or other statute.

express or non-excludable implied term, condition or

ILVE product;
(ii) paying the cost of replacing or repairing the

defective part of the ILVE product;
(iii) replacing the ILVE product; or
(iv) paying the cost of replacing the ILVE product.
(e) Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be

excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are
entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure

and for compensation for any other reasonably
foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to

have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail
to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not

amount to a major failure.

8. Defects
Any part of an ILVE product deemed to be defective

and replaced by ILVE is the property of ILVE. ILVE
reserves the right to inspect and test ILVE products
in order to determine the extent of any defect and the
validity of a claim under the Warranty.

with the palm of your hand.

This may be due to a liquid spill over, which can cause moisture to enter into ignition micro
switches under knobs. Spraying liquid type cleaners can also create a problem. If this does
occur, the cooktop should be turned off at power point and left to dry out. Removing all knobs
and using a hair dryer on the control panel, will assist the drying out process.

This problem can occur after a power interruption or when the power is first turned on to the
appliance. The display will show an “A” and the clock needs to be reset. This can be done by
pressing both pot buttons (

This is a natural occurrence and is caused by the self-clean burning off process. A good tip: leave
the oven on at a high temperature for 10 minutes after removing cooked food. This will burn off
any splatter and prevent the oil from going cold. It will then start to burn off when oven is next
turned on. Please note: all ovens will occasionally require to be dismantled and cleaned internally,
even if self-clean liners are fitted. Do not use oven cleaner on self-clean liners. For full instructions
refer to the operating manual supplied with the appliance or available on line at www.ilve.com.au

Check that the correct ventilation has been allowed. See illustrations of ventilation requirements
in the installation book. Please note that being an oven, the external panels will warm up after the
oven has been on for over an hour, at high temperatures. This is normal heat transfer; the panels
can heat up to around 60ºC.

Cover the glass with e.g. an old tea towel and use multi-grip pliers to lightly grip the cover and
undo it turning anti-clockwise.
