ILVE 1739ae - Oven Cleaning and Maintenance; 1. Before you start; 2. Catalytic self cleaning liners

1. Before you start
As a safety precaution always
switch off the power to the oven
before commencing any clean-
ing 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 stop-
per 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 excep-
tion of the 200LM, 600LM and
800LM models) has catalytic lin-
ers. 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 keep-
ing 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.
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
ILVE’s exclusive turbowave 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 when
compared to other ovens.
The introduction of the catalytic oven
cleaning system of removable floor, racks
and door glass, means that the once
torturous task of cleaning your oven has
become simplified. It is important to note
that regular thorough cleaning will keep your
oven looking good for an extended time.
To maintain your oven you must do a self
clean on a regular basis, approximately
every three to four months of normal usage.
