3. Setup

Unpacking and Initial Inspection:

1. Carefully remove the pizza oven and all accessories from the packaging.
2. Inspect the oven for any signs of damage during transit. If damaged, do not operate and contact customer service.
3. Remove all protective films, stickers, and packaging materials from the oven.

Placement:

• Place the oven on a stable, heat-resistant, and level surface.
• Ensure there is adequate clearance (at least 4 inches) on all sides and above the oven for proper ventilation.
• Do not place the oven near flammable materials, walls, or under cabinets.

Initial Cleaning and Pre-burn:

Before first use, it is recommended to clean the interior and perform a pre-burn cycle to eliminate any manufacturing odors or residues.

1. Wipe the interior of the oven, the grill rack, and the crumb tray with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly.
2. Insert the grill rack and crumb tray into their positions.
3. Plug the oven into a grounded electrical outlet.
4. Turn the temperature knob to the maximum setting (572°F / 300°C) and the timer knob to 10-15 minutes.
5. Allow the oven to run for the set time. Some smoke or odor may be present during this initial burn-off; this is normal. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
6. Once the cycle is complete, turn off the oven, unplug it, and let it cool completely before further use.

4. Operating Instructions

Controls:

Figure 4.1: The oven features a 0-60 minute timer knob and a temperature control knob (77°F-572°F).

• Power Switch: Located on the side, this switch turns the oven on and off. The indicator light will illuminate when the oven is on.
• Temperature Knob: Adjusts the desired cooking temperature.
• Timer Knob: Sets the cooking duration up to 60 minutes. The oven will automatically turn off the heating elements when the timer expires.

Cooking Process:

1. Preheat: Plug in the oven and turn on the power switch. Set the desired temperature using the temperature knob. Allow the oven to preheat for 10-15 minutes until the indicator light turns off, signaling it has reached the set temperature.
2. Prepare Food: Place your pizza or other food item on the grill rack. For best results with pizza, ensure the pizza is not too large for the 16-inch capacity.
3. Load Food: Carefully pull out the front tray using the handle. Place the grill rack with your food onto the sliding mechanism. Push the tray back into the oven.
4. Set Timer: Set the cooking time using the timer knob. The recommended cooking time will vary based on the food item and desired crispness.
5. Monitor Cooking: Observe the food through the viewing window. Adjust the temperature or cooking time as needed.
6. Remove Food: Once cooking is complete and the timer has sounded, carefully pull out the tray using the handle. Use oven mitts to remove the hot food from the grill rack.
7. Turn Off: Turn the temperature knob to 'OFF' and the timer knob to '0'. Switch off the main power switch and unplug the oven when not in use.

Cooking Tips:

• For a crispier pizza crust, ensure the oven is fully preheated before inserting the pizza.
• Rotate the pizza halfway through cooking for more even browning, if necessary.
• Experiment with different temperatures and times for various food items to achieve your preferred results.
