IMPORTANT: - To be installed only by an authorised person - Save these instructions for the local inspector’s use. - Remove all packaging material and literature from the appliance before connecting the gas and electrical supplies. Additionally note that the correct wok trivet must be placed over the wok burner.
freestanding cookers Operating instructions 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.
freestanding cookers 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.

freestanding cookers electric oven cooking modes ICON MODE FUNCTION MODE 1 Pizza mode ILVE’s unique Pizza mode has been specifically designed for you to cook the perfect Pizza To achieve perfect results; turn the oven thermostat up to 250 degrees (best temperature 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers grilling systems 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.
freestanding cookers Shelf positions ILVE Tip • The oven door should always be closed during hot air grilling. • The temperature should be set –5 from 175 – 180º, this range in –4 temperature helps prevent food from burning and avoids splatter, –3 minimising the need for cleaning.
freestanding cookers 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.

freestanding cookers operating - gas cooktop LIGHTING BURNERS – simply press the knob in, turn anti-clockwise to maximum, the electronic igniter will spark and ignite the burner. Check that the gas has been lit; if the burner fails to ignite repeat the above process. For models with Flame Failure follow the above procedure but keep the knob fully depressed for up to 10 seconds after ignition to allow the safety to lock in.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers 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.

freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers induction cooktop 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.
freestanding cookers 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).
freestanding cookers 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.

freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers You may also need to wipe the door and inner glass if required. 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
freestanding cookers 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.
