PROPER CARE & MAINTENANCE:
WARNING:
If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on the cooking surfaces prior to

ach to food.
CLEANING INTERIOR OF PIZZA OVEN:
We recommend cleaning o
ff
food residue immediately
a�
er cooking by gently scrubbing grates with wire bristle brush
and then turning burners to HI for approximately 5minutes.
WARNING:
DO NOT leave pizza oven una
�
ended when pizza oven is on. Wear oven mi
�s
to protect from burns.
The heat from the burners will burn o
ff
most food/grease residue from grates and heat tents and turn it to an ash like
substance which will fall to the bo
�o
m of the
fi
rebox or grease tray. A
�
er the pizza oven cools (approximately 30 minutes)
remove grates and heat tents and brush the ash and any grease out of the
fi
rebox. Clean and replace grease cup. Inspect the
heat tents for damage or deteriora
�
on before reinstalling in the pizza oven.
Wash the grates and heat tents with a mild detergent and rinse with hot water periodically if desired.
CAUTION:
DO NOT allow ash residue to remain on the grease cup or
fi
rebox as it could block proper grease drainage of the pizza oven.
INTERIOR OF PIZZA OVEN DOOR:
Smoke will accumulate inside pizza oven door and may
fla
ke onto your food. Clean the inside of the pizza oven door
with scrub brush and baking soda/water solu
�o
n. Dry thoroughly. Do not mistake this for paint. The interior of gas pizza oven
door is not painted.
MAINTAINING EXTERIOR OF PIZZA OVEN:
To protect your pizza oven from excessive rust, the unit must be kept clean and covered at all
�
mes when not in use.
Painted surfaces. Wash with mild detergent or non abrasive cleaner and warm soapy water.
Stainless steel surfaces. To maintain your pizza oven’s appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water
and wipe dry with a so
�
cloth a
�e
r each use. Baked on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plas
�
c cleaning pad.
Use only in the direc
�
on of the brushed
finis
h to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics. Car wax may
help protect the exterior
finis
h of your pizza oven.
Porcelain surfaces. Because of glass like composi
�
on, most residues can be wiped away with a solu
�o
n of baking soda
and water or specially formulated cleaner. Use non abrasive scouring powder such as baking soda for stubborn stains.
Plas
�c
and rubber parts. Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers
or a concentrated pizza oven cleaner on plas
�c
parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
RUST:
Discolora
�
on, rust and rust pits can occur as a result of high cooking temperatures, acidic marinades, grease
fi
res and
exposure to coastal climates or other natural elements.
Rust spots on the interior surface can be bu
ff
ed, cleaned, and then lightly coated with vegetable oil or vegetable oil
spray to minimize rus
�n
g,.
Never use cleaners containing chlorine as chlorine promotes rust.
