BEFORE USING YOUR PIZZA OVEN
1. Place oven in a well-ventilated area to burn off any residual dust
from manufacturing.
2. Plug unit in, open door and set Temperature Control to 400˚F
(205˚C). After one hour, close door and increase temperature
to 500˚F (260˚C) for at least 1½ hours.
NOTE: The oven may emit an odor during this process; this is
normal and not harmful, and should quickly dissipate.
3. Turn off the oven and allow it to cool completely. Remove any
residue from the interior with a dry cloth.
4. Place clean, cool oven in the area where it will be used. Be sure
there is at least 6 inches’ clearance between sides and top of oven
and any wall or cabinet.
5. Check to ensure nothing is blocking the exhaust vent on back
of unit.
BAKING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
Only pizza and breads can be placed directly on the ceramic
pizza deck. All other food items must be put onto a tray or into a
container rated for high-temperature use.
Set the Temperature Control Knob to the desired temperature to
preheat oven. When it reaches temperature, the ready light will
illuminate.
The Pizza Oven can be used to bake both fresh and frozen products.
Frozen items should go right from the freezer into the heated oven.
Cooking time will vary depending on the consistency and weight of
the product.
The temperature range for baking fresh pizza is usually between
500˚F (260˚C) and 575˚F (300˚C), depending on the individual product.
Generally, frozen items are cooked at a lower temperature, but
always follow recommended cooking instructions.
Bake pizza until the cheese bubbles and the bottom is evenly
browned, rotating it during the baking process if necessary.
Open and close door quickly when putting pizza in oven to prevent
heat from escaping, which can slow down cooking time.
