4. Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the oven from its packaging. Retain packaging materials for future transport or storage.
2. Placement: Place the oven on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface. Ensure there is sufficient clearance (at least 4 inches) around all sides for proper ventilation. Do not place near flammable materials.
3. Power Connection: Ensure the power outlet matches the oven's voltage requirements (110-120V). Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
4. Pizza Stone Installation: Place the pizza stone(s) inside each oven deck. Ensure they are properly seated.
5. Initial Burn-Off: Before first use, operate the oven empty at its maximum temperature (660°F / 350°C) for approximately 30 minutes to burn off any manufacturing residues. This may produce a slight odor; ensure the area is well-ventilated.

5. Operating Instructions

The PYY Double Decker Electric Pizza Oven features independent controls for each deck, allowing for versatile cooking.

5.1. Powering On and Temperature Setting

1. Ensure the oven is plugged in.
2. Turn the Power Switch to the "ON" position for the desired deck (upper or lower). The indicator light will illuminate.
3. Adjust the Top Temperature and Bottom Temperature knobs for the selected deck to your desired baking temperature, ranging from 175°F to 660°F (79°C to 350°C).
4. Allow the oven to preheat for approximately 15-20 minutes to reach the set temperature. The oven's internal lighting can be turned on using the Light Switch to monitor preheating and baking progress.

5.2. Using the Timer

• The oven features a 60-minute ring timer for each deck.
• To set the timer, rotate the Timer knob clockwise to the desired duration.
• When the set time elapses, an audible alert will sound. The timer does not automatically turn off the oven's heating elements.

5.3. Baking Pizza

1. Preheat the oven to the recommended temperature for your pizza (e.g., 500°F-575°F for thin-crust pizza).
2. Carefully place the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone using a pizza peel. The oven can accommodate pizzas up to 16 inches.
3. Close the oven door. Monitor baking through the tempered glass window.
4. Baking times vary depending on pizza type and desired crispness. Thin-crust pizzas typically bake in 4-6 minutes at high temperatures.
5. Once baked, carefully remove the pizza using a pizza peel.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your pizza oven.

1. Disconnect Power: Always unplug the oven from the power outlet and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the stainless steel finish.
3. Interior Cleaning: The non-stick aluminum-steel interiors can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn food residues, a non-abrasive sponge with mild soap can be used. Ensure all soap residue is removed.
4. Pizza Stone Cleaning: The pizza stone should be scraped clean of any baked-on food. Do not use soap or detergent on the pizza stone, as it is porous and will absorb chemicals, affecting future food taste. For deep cleaning, heat the stone in the oven at high temperature to burn off residues, then scrape once cooled.
5. Storage: Store the oven in a dry, clean place when not in use.
