• Supervise its use by older children, the elderly or rm. If allowing older children to use the appliance
without supervision, please ensure that they are aware of how a microwave oven works and understand
the dangers of improper use.
Technical safety
• If the connection cable is damaged, the new cable must be tted by a ILVE approved service
technician.
• Do not use the microwave if the door is warped, the door hinges are loose, holes or cracks are visible
in the casing, the door or the oven interior walls. Operating the appliance with this type of damage will
result in microwave leakage and present a hazard to the user.
• Never open the casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous and can cause operational faults or electric shock.
• Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the rating on the data plate
corresponds to the voltage and frequency of the household supply. This data must correspond in order
to avoid risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qua electrician if in any doubt.
• Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do
not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
• The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it
and an e ective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most
important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and where there is any
doubt, the on-site electrical wiring should be inspected by a qua electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
• The appliance must be built in before operation to ensure that no electrical components are accessible.

socket and the plug removed or the mains fuse is disconnected or the screw-out fuse is removed
(in countries where this is applicable).
• This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qua engineer.
• In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all
times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.
7ILVE Operating Manual

Warning and Safety Instructions
Using the Microwave Oven
• Always ensure that food is su iently heated.
• Many factors will a ect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its initial
temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cooking container.
• Some foods may contain micro-organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking, therefore
when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked
through (at temperatures over 70°C for more than 10 minutes). If in doubt, select a longer cooking or
reheating time.
• It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked. This can be
achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and by observing a su ntly long standing time, which
should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.
• Always remember that times for cooking, reheating and defrosting in a microwave oven are usually
considerably shorter than with traditional methods of food preparation.
• Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning, or could even cause it to
catch re. There is also a danger of re if breadcrumbs, owers, herbs, etc., are dried in the microwave
oven. Always ensure that this type of procedure is supervised.
• Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or pads lled with cherry kernels, wheat grains,
lavender or gel, such as those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated, even after
they have been removed from the microwave.
• Exercise caution when cooking or reheating food with a high sugar content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If
heated for too long, the sugar may caramelise or ignite.
• Do not use full power to warm empty dishes.
• Do not use the appliance without food, or if it is incorrectly loaded.
• Never cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. With baby bottles, the screw
top and teat must be removed. Otherwise pressure builds up which can cause the bottle or container
to explode, posing a severe risk of injury.
• Before serving, remember to allow a s cient standing time and then always check the temperature
of the actual food itself after taking it out of the microwave. The temperature of the container is not an
indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. This is particularly important when preparing
food for babies, children, and the elderly or in rm. Shake or stir baby milk and food thoroughly after
heating, and try it for temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby. When heating food and drink
remember that the heat is created in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The
dish is only warmed by the heat of the food.
8 ILVE Operating Manual

• To avoid fueling any ames, do not open the oven door if smoke occurs in the oven interior. Interrupt
remove the plug. Do not open the door until the smoke has dispersed.
• Never heat undiluted alcohol in the oven as this can easily ignite.
Danger of Injury or Fire:
• Do not heat up tins in the microwave oven, pressure can build up and they may explode resulting
in injury or damage.
• Cover any food which is left in the oven to be kept hot, as moisture in the food could lead to corrosion
damage in the oven. This also prevents the food from drying out.
• Try to avoid the interior walls being splashed with food or liquids containing salt. If it does happen,
wipe these away thoroughly to avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surface.
• Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal
glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or wire ties. Do not
use bowls with milled rims, or cream pots with the tinfoil lid only partially removed. Such items could
be damaged or cause a re hazard.
• Do not leave the oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in disposable containers made of
plastic, paper or other materials. Before using single-use plastic containers, make sure
they are suitable for use in microwave ovens. See appropriate section.
• Eggs can only be cooked in their shells in the microwave oven in a specially designed egg boiling
device available from specialist shops.
9ILVE Operating Manual

Warning and Safety Instructions
• Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven as this may lead to the eggs
bursting, even after they have been taken out of the oven.
• Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave heat only if the yolk membrane has been
punctured several times rst. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.
• Use a suitable heat-resistant mat or pot rest.
• Do not use the oven to heat up the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the
appliance could catch re.
• When using kitchen appliances connected to sockets near the appliance, ensure that the cable cannot
get trapped in a hot oven door, which could melt the cable insulation and be dangerous.
• To check food temperature, st interrupt the cooking process. Only use a thermometer spec ally
approved for food use to measure the temperature of the food. Never use a thermometer containing
mercury or liquid, as these are not suitable for use with very high temperatures and will break very
easily.
• Do not use a steam-cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could reach the
electrical components and cause a short circuit.
When using browning dishes:
• Always use oven gloves when handling the browning dish to avoid burns.
• Never place the browning dish directly onto a table or work surface. Use a suitable heat resistant mat,
grid or board to protect the work surface or table and prevent heat marks.
• Browning dishes should only be used in a microwave oven, or as a serving dish.
• In a conventional oven the special glaze would su er damage.
Disposal of your old appliance:
• Before disposing of your old appliance, st make it unusable.
• Disconnect it from the mains, cut the cable near the appliance and cut and render any plug
unusable. This should be done by a competent person.
• The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and
Safety instructions.
10 ILVE Operating Manual

In a microwave oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy
into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior and rebound o
the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides. Microwave distribution is improved
with the turntable engaged. In order for microwaves to reach the food, they must be able to penetrate the
cooking utensil being used. Microwaves can penetrate porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastics, but not
metal. Do not, therefore, use utensils made of metal, or which contain metal, for example in the form of
gold or silver trim. The metal re ects the microwaves and this could lead to the creation of sparks. The
microwaves cannot be absorbed. Microwaves pass through a suitable container and nd their way directly
into the food. All food contains moisture molecules which, when subjected to microwave energy, start to
oscillate 2.5 thousand million times a second.
The friction caused by this vibration creates heat, which rst starts developing around the outside of the
food and then slowly penetrates towards centre. The moisture, fat and sugar content of food will a ect the
speed at which it is cooked.
As heat is produced directly in the food,
– food can generally be cooked without adding much liquid or cooking oil.
– cooking, reheating and defrosting in a microwave oven is quicker than using conventional methods.
– nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, are generally retained.
– the colour, texture and taste of food are not impaired. Microwaves stop being produced as soon as the
cooking process is interrupted or the appliance door is opened. When the appliance is in operation, the
closed, sealed door prevents microwaves escaping from the appliance.
Modes of Operation
11ILVE Operating Manual

Suitable Containers for Microwave Ovens
Microwaves
– are re ected by metal,
– pass through glass, porcelain, plastic and card,
– and are absorbed by food.
Material and shape
The material and shape of containers used a ect cooking results and times. Heat distribution is more even
in round and oval shaped at containers than in rectangular containers, providing better results.
Metal
Metal containers, aluminium foil and metal cutlery, or china with metallic decoration, such as gold rims
or cobalt blue must not be used in an oven being used in microwave mode. The metal re ects the
microwaves, hindering the cooking process.
Exceptions:
– Ready-meals in aluminium foil dishes.
These can be defrosted and reheated in the microwave oven, if recommended by the manufacturer.
However, as food is only heated from the top, it is better to remove the food from the aluminium foil
container and transfer it to a dish suitable for a microwave oven. The heat distribution will be more even.
If sparks and arcing occur when using an aluminium container, stop and transfer the food to a microwave
safe container.
– Pieces of aluminium foil
For even defrosting and to avoid overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of meat, poultry or h, small pieces
of aluminium foil may be used to mask wingtips or other thin parts for the last few minutes of the
programme. Make sure that the aluminium foil is at least 2 cm from the oven walls at all times. It must not
touch the walls.
– Metal meat skewers or clamps.
These should only be used if they are very small in comparison to the size of the cut of meat.
– Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass are ideal for use in the microwave oven. Crystal glass contains lead
which could cause the glass to crack. Glass dishes with a milled rim are also subject to this risk. Both are
unsuitable.
Porcelain
Porcelain is a suitable material. Do not use porcelain with gold or silver edging or items with hollow knobs
or handles, as insu cient ventilation may cause pressure.
Earthenware
Decorated earthenware is only suitable if the decoration is beneath an all-over glaze. Earthenware can get
very hot, and may crack.
Glazes and colours
Some glazes and colours contain metals which make them unsuitable for use in a microwave oven.
12 ILVE Operating Manual

Suitable Containers for Microwave Ovens
Plastics
When purchasing plasticware, make sure that it is suitable for use in a microwave oven. Plastic containers
must only be used in microwave mode alone. Plastics must be heat-resistant to a minimum of 110 °C.
Otherwise the plastic may melt and fuse with the food. Special plastic utensils designed for use in
microwave ovens are available from good retail outlets. Melamine is not suitable as it absorbs energy and
heats up. Disposable containers, such as trays made from polystyrene, can only be used for very short
timed warming and reheating of food. Plastic boiling bags can be used for cooking and reheating. They
should be pierced beforehand so that steam can escape. This prevents a build-up of pressure and
reduces the risk of the bag bursting. Roasting bags and tubes can also be used. Roasting tubes should
be about 40 cm longer and roasting bags about 20 cm longer than the food being roasted, and carefully
tied with string. Turn the ends over and secure them. The bag should be pierced according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use metal clips, plastic clips containing metal parts or paper ties
containing wire. There is a danger that they will ignite when heated.
Wood
Wooden dishes are not suitable. Moisture contained in the wood evaporates when exposed to microwave
energy, causing the wood to dry and crack.
Disposable containers
Only those plastic disposable containers which are s d by the manufacturer as suitable for use in a
microwave oven may be used. Do not leave the oven unattended when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plastic, paper or other ammable materials. Disposable containers are
not always recyclable or bio-degradable.
Testing dishes for their suitability
If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or porcelain plates or dishes are suitable for use in a
microwave oven, a simple test can be performed:
Place the item you wish to test in the centre of the oven, l a suitable glass with water and also place this
in the oven.
- Close the door.
- Turn the power selector to 900 W.
- Enter a time of 30 seconds with the time selector.
- Press the Start button.
At the end of the test, the water in the glass should be warm and the dish cool. If the dish is hot the water
cold it would be unwise to use the dish.
If a crackling noise is heard accompanied by sparks during the test, switch the appliance immediately
(press button Stop/C twice).
Any crockery which causes this reaction is unsuitable for use with microwave power.
If any doubt exists about the suitability of containers, please contact the supplier.
This test cannot be used to check whether items with hollow knobs or handles are suitable for use with
microwave power.
