FREESTANDING COOKERS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ILVE freestanding Cookers 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 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. (refer to page 13)
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 15 minutes.
4 Repeat process for functions 5 and 8 in sequence and
allow to burn in each mode for 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.
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.
Normal Position
Reversed Position
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.
(refer to page 13)
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. The temperature
selector should only be set to the selected
temperature after the mode is selected.
When switching the oven off or changing
the mode always set the selector to 0
before changing the mode. The quick start
or preheat mode should only be used for a
maximum of 10 minutes.
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 the cavity 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 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.
