BEFORE USING YOUR PIZZA OVEN 1. P lace oven in a well-ventilated area to burn off any residual dust from manufacturing. 2. P lug 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. T urn off the oven and allow it to cool completely. Remove any residue from the interior with a dry cloth. 4. P lace 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. C heck 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. 10
