- Quick-start pre-heating brings your temperature up to 350°F in less than 6 minutes.
- Dual capillary thermostats for more precise temperature control
- Cooking in the microwave reduces food shrinkage and splatter.
- Solid metal handles and knobs, as well as heavily insulated oven cavities that protect the cabinetry around them

Pizza, Lower Floor Heating, Upper Element, Fan Grill, Fan Assisted and Fan Forced, Conventional Grill with Rotisserie, Quick Start, and Defrost are among the ten cooking functions found in most ILVE ovens.
ILVE ovens have cavity cooling fans that turn on when the oven reaches a predetermined temperature and continue to run after the oven is turned off. The BIO-safe triple-coated glass door on the ranges prevents overheating and makes it safer to use.
