Setup and First Use

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials from the oven and its accessories.
2. Cleaning: Before first use, wipe the baking plate and accessories with a damp cloth. Ensure all parts are completely dry. The terracotta dome can be wiped clean. Do not immerse the electrical unit in water.
3. Placement: Place the oven on a stable, heat-resistant, and level surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the appliance. Do not place it near flammable materials.
4. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. The appliance operates at 1200W.
5. Initial Heating (Burn-off): For the first use, it is recommended to operate the oven empty for approximately 10-15 minutes to burn off any manufacturing residues. A slight odor or smoke may occur; this is normal. Ensure the area is well-ventilated. Allow the unit to cool completely afterward.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to prepare delicious mini pizzas with your Emerio Countertop Oven:

1. Preheating: Turn the control knob to the desired temperature setting (if applicable, otherwise simply turn it on). Allow the oven to preheat for approximately 10-15 minutes. The terracotta dome needs time to absorb heat for optimal cooking.
2. Prepare Pizzas: Use the included dough cutter to create mini pizza bases (approx. 4.5 inches diameter). Top with your preferred ingredients. Avoid overloading the pizzas to ensure even cooking.
3. Placing Pizzas: Carefully place up to six mini pizzas onto the baking plate using the provided spatulas. Slide them into the openings under the terracotta dome.
4. Cooking Time: Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the dough and the type/amount of toppings. Generally, mini pizzas will be ready in approximately 5-7 minutes once the oven is fully preheated. The terracotta dome helps create a wonderfully crisp crust by absorbing moisture.
5. Removing Pizzas: Use the spatulas to carefully remove the cooked pizzas from the oven. Be cautious as the oven and spatulas will be hot.
6. Serving: Serve immediately and enjoy!
7. Switching Off: After use, turn the control knob to the "off" position and unplug the appliance from the power outlet.
