Operating Instructions
The Davivy Electric Pizza Oven is designed for simple and efficient operation.
Controls Overview
- Power Control Knob: Adjusts the heating intensity. Settings typically range from 0 (Off) to 5 (Max).
- Timer Knob: Sets the cooking duration, up to 15 minutes. The oven will automatically turn off when the timer expires.
- Power Indicator Light (Red): Illuminates when the oven is powered on.
- Heat Indicator Light (Green): Illuminates when the heating elements are active. It will cycle on and off during operation to maintain the set temperature.
- Built-in Thermometer: Displays the internal temperature of the oven, allowing you to monitor preheating and cooking temperatures accurately.
- Visual Window: Located on top, this window allows you to observe the pizza's cooking progress without opening the lid.
Cooking Your Pizza
- Preheating: Close the oven lid. Turn the Power Control Knob to the desired setting (e.g., Max for 800℉). Set the Timer Knob to 10-15 minutes for preheating. The green heat indicator light will turn on. Allow the oven to preheat until the built-in thermometer reaches the desired temperature, typically 700-800℉ for optimal pizza cooking.
- Preparing Pizza: While the oven preheats, prepare your pizza on one of the wooden pizza peels. Ensure the pizza stone is clean and dry.
- Loading Pizza: Once preheated, carefully open the oven lid using the cool-touch handles. Using the wooden pizza peel, slide the pizza onto the hot pizza stone. Close the lid immediately.
- Cooking: Set the Timer Knob for your desired cooking time. For a typical 12-inch pizza, cooking takes approximately 6 minutes after preheating. Monitor the pizza through the visual window. Cooking times may vary based on crust thickness and toppings.
- Removing Pizza: When the pizza is cooked to your preference, carefully open the lid. Use the wooden pizza peel or pizza server to remove the hot pizza from the stone. Close the lid.
- Serving: Transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Use the stainless steel pizza cutter to slice and the pizza server to serve.
- Cool Down: After use, turn both control knobs to the "OFF" position and unplug the oven. Allow the oven and pizza stone to cool completely before cleaning or storing.
Versatility
Beyond pizza, your Davivy Electric Pizza Oven can be used to cook a variety of other dishes. Experiment with different plates and settings to prepare items such as sausages, chicken wings, chips, and steak.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning will help maintain the performance and longevity of your Davivy Electric Pizza Oven.
- Always Unplug: Ensure the oven is unplugged from the power outlet and completely cooled down before cleaning.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces of the oven with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the finish.
- Pizza Stone Cleaning: Allow the pizza stone to cool completely. Scrape off any excess food residue with the provided stainless steel scraper or a stiff brush. For stubborn stains, you can gently wipe with a damp cloth, but avoid soap or detergents as they can be absorbed by the porous stone and affect future food taste. Air dry completely before next use. Do not immerse the stone in water.
- Accessories: The stainless steel pizza cutter, pizza server, and scraper can be washed with warm, soapy water and dried thoroughly. The wooden pizza peels should be hand-washed and air-dried. Silicone oven mitts can be washed with warm, soapy water.
- Storage: Store the oven in a cool, dry place when not in use.
