2. Switching on, setting parameters, switching off
Reset the machine by turning the STOP button (12) clockwise.
Switch on the machine by pressing the ON/OFF button (11).
After a few seconds, display (1) will show the upper plate temperature and display (3) the lower plate
temperature.
To set the upper plate temperature press either button (5) or (6); display (1) will start flashing; press the
(5) or (6) button until the desired temperature is reached.
To set the lower plate temperature press either button (7) or (8); display (3) will start flashing; press
button (7) or (8) until the desired temperature is reached.
N.B. At the moment of switching off, the current temperature will be memorized and reproposed to the user
when the oven is switched on again.
To set contact time between plates press button (10); display (1) will start flashing and show the set time;
press button (5) and (6) until the desired time is reached.
Wait for the plates to reach the set temperature; then try flattening some dough balls, varying the dis-
tance between the platens by means of the lever (13) until the required thickness has been obtained.
The dough is flattened by placing the ball in the centre of the lower plate and keeping the guard (14)
Lowered.
When the lower plate has returned to the starting position, the guard may be raised and the pizza base or
crust removed, taking care not to get burned on the surfaces of the plates.
Having adjusted the appliance suitably for the type of dough being used, it is now ready to start work.
To switch off, just press the ON/OFF button (11).
CAUTION:
The guard should only be raised when the lower plate has finished the pressing cycle and has returned to
the starting position; however, if you want to anticipate the lower plate descent in order to reduce the
pasta disc diameter, raise the grid before cycle end.
3. Switching on the appliance for the first time
At the first start-up cycle on the end user’s premises, it is advised that the temperature should be raised
to 150° C and maintained for at least 1 hour.
The appliance will produce smoke and unpleasant odours during this time due to the evaporation of the
moisture contained in the insulating materials.
The smoke and odours will disappear in subsequent use.
4. Advice for use
We recommend setting the thermostats at a temperature of 150/160 _C and the timer at a contact time of
0.8 seconds (these values may change according to the type of dough used by the operator, its degree of
leavening and its temperature).
During the first operating cycle it is advisable to spread a little olive oil over the hot plates with paper; this
operation creates a protective layer over the plates, which helps the dough slide during flattening, and
should be repeated whenever the plates are thoroughly cleaned.
IT IS ALSO ESSENTIAL TO USE WELL-LEAVENED AND NOT COLD DOUGH (TAKE THE DOUGH
OUT OF THE FRIDGE AT LEAST TWO HOURS BEFORE STARTING WORK) AND TO PLACE THE
LIGHTLY FLOURED BALL PRECISELY IN THE CENTRE OF THE LOWER PLATEN.
