– Do not use the pizza oven any more if the gas hose is dam-
aged or porous.
Ignition system
1. Set the temperature controller to the OFF position.
2. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle. Turn the gas supply
on the regulator to the On position.
3. Push in the temperature regulator and turn it to the left.
4. A click can be heard. This indicates that the device is ignit-
ing. Repeat this 4 to 5 times or until the flame burns. Repeat
the process if the flame does not burn immediately.
5. If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, turn the rotary
switch to the OFF position and wait 5 minutes for the gas to
evaporate and repeat the above process. If the burner still
does not ignite, ignite manually as described in the operat-
ing instructions (see section Conventional lighting with a
match).
6. To switch off the pizza oven, turn the regulator on the gas
bottle to the Off position. Then turn the temperature control
on the device to OFF.
Conventional Ignition with Match
Danger Risk of burning!
Never ignite the pizza oven with a match from above,
always from below.
1. Set the temperature controller to the OFF position.
2. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle. Turn the gas supply
on the regulator to the On position.
3. Push in the temperature control and turn it to the left.
4. Insert a burning, commercially available fireplace match
(extra long) from below through the large hole in the bottom
of the burner housing near the burner. If you use a normal
match to light the device, be sure to use the match holder
supplied.
5. Consult your dealer to solve the ignition problem on the
device.
Switch off the pizza oven
To switch off the pizza oven, turn the regulator on the gas bot-
tle to the Off position. Then turn the temperature control on the
device to OFF.
Cleaning and maintenance
Your pizza oven is made of high-quality materials.
Clean the pizza oven after each use. To clean and care for the
surfaces, please note the following:
Danger Risk of burning!
Let the pizza oven cool down completely before clean-
ing.
Danger Health hazard!
Do not use any paint solvents or thinners to remove
stains. Such liquids are hazardous to health and may
not come into contact with food.
Attention Risk of damage!
Do not use any strong or abrasive solvents or scouring
pads as such products attack the pizza oven‘s surfaces
and leave permanent markings.
• Set the regulator on the gas hose to the Off position before
you start cleaning.
•
Do not immerse the pizza stone in water!
Only clean the
cooled pizza stone by carefully removing leftovers with a
commercially available kitchen scraper.
• Remove loose deposits on the pizza oven with a wet sponge.
•
Caution! Never use commercially available oven clean-
ers!
• Food residues can be removed with a brush, spatula or clean-
ing sponge. Then wash off with warm soapy water. Rinse with
clear water and dry.
• In general, clean the interior and surfaces with warm soapy
water.
• Use a soft, clean cloth to dry it. Do not scratch the surfaces
while rubbing dry.
• If the gas pizza oven is not in use, it should be covered with
a protective hood.
Cleaning the burner
• Turn the regulator on the gas bottle to the
Off
position. Then
set the temperature regulator on the pizza oven to
(off) and
disconnect the gas hose from the gas bottle.
• Clean the burner with a soft brush or with pressurised air.
Then wipe it down with a cloth.
• Clean blocked openings with a sturdy pipe cleaner, a wire or
with the opened end of a paperclip.
Cleaning the Ignition Head
• If it becomes difficult to ignite the flame, this may be due to
the fact that the tip of the ignition head is dirty. In this case it
needs to be cleaned. The ignition head tip is located next to
the burner opening.
• To ensure perfect functioning, food residues between the ig-
nition head tip and the burner must be removed. Use fine
sandpaper in order to clean the ignition head tip and the
burner edge.
• The ignition head tip should be approx. 4 - 6 mm away from
the burner edge. This is the ideal distance for reliable ignition.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
You may have acquired a
protective hood
for your pizza oven.
In order to protect your investment, it is recommended that a
protective hood is always used when the pizza oven is not in op-
eration. However, please ensure that the protective hood is only
put on once the pizza oven has cooled down and is clean and
dry. The use of a protective hood may be required.
Caution!
A
protective hood that is placed on a warm, wet, or unclean pizza
oven can lead to heavy corrosion.
For this reason,
the pizza oven should always have cooled
down and be cleaned of surface dirt and thoroughly dried
before the protective hood is placed on it.
This is particularly
important when the pizza oven is not going to be used for an
extended period of time and, for example, stored over winter.
