Power Supply Cord
A short power supply cord (or detachable power supply cord) is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used with care.
If an extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
- The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally;
- If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
- Outdoor extension cords should be used with outdoor use products and are surface marked with the suffix letter “W” and with a tag stating “Suitable for use with outdoor appliances.” The connection to an extension cord should be kept dry and off the ground.

Setting Up
Step 1
Take your Ooni Volt 12 out of the packaging. There are handholds on the side of the oven.
Step 2
Find a clean, flat, stable surface for your Ooni Volt 12. Clear the space before moving your oven into position. Remove any flammable objects and materials, including tablecloths. Think about ventilation when choosing a suitable place for your oven. Very high cooking temperatures can sometimes cause food to burn, which can produce smoke.
Step 3
Unwind the power cord. Make sure that the power switch is in the off position before plugging your Ooni Volt 12 into a power outlet. This oven is designed to be used with 120V outlets only.
Caution: The Ooni Volt 12 comes with a short power supply cord to reduce the risk of the oven being pulled off the countertop. If you’re using an extension cord, make sure that its marked electrical rating is at least as great as the appliance’s electrical rating (1600W). Route the extension cord so that it can’t be pulled on or tripped over to minimize the risk of the oven falling.
Step 4
Make sure that the cable doesn’t run under the oven or drape over the edge of the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on or tripped over.
Step 5
Remove the baking stone from its packaging and slide it into the Ooni Volt 12.
_ Caution: _Avoid hitting the temperature sensor on the left wall of the oven’s cavity when moving the stone into position. See image 2.5 b.
Step 6
Make sure there is space around the product to allow for safe operation. Enough space should be left to access the ON/OFF switch on the right-hand side. The area above the oven should be generally clear. Do not place inside an enclosed space.
Step 7
To allow the oven door to open fully, position the oven so the front is close to the edge of your surface.
Step 8
Turn on your Ooni Volt 12 with the power switch on the side. The oven will enter standby mode.
Step 9
Touch the power button located on the left of the control dials to bring the oven out of standby.

Seasoning
Step 1
Before your first cook, run the oven for 20 minutes to season it. To heat your oven, rotate the temperature dial to 850°F. Your oven will start to heat immediately.
Step 2
Rotate the timer dial to 20 minutes. When the timer expires, switch off your Ooni Volt 12 and allow it to cool.
Power Off
Step 1
- Simply touch the power button on the front of the oven to power off the oven.
- The oven will switch to standby mode.
WARNING: Before turning off the power switch or disconnecting from the outlet, let the oven cool down fully in standby mode. This will take around 10 minutes.
Step 2
- Before moving the oven, leave to cool for 90 minutes.
Timer Dial
- Turn the left-hand dial clockwise to increase the length of the timer up to 20 minutes.
- Turn counterclockwise to reduce the amount of time on the timer, or rotate to 0 to cancel.
- Once the timer is complete, a sound will play and the icon will flash.
- To stop the sound, press the timer dial.
Temperature dial
- Turn the dial clockwise to increase the Ooni Volt 12 oven temperature.
- Turn counterclockwise to reduce the Ooni Volt 12 oven temperature.
- Temperature set to 850°F (Max temp)
- Current temperature = 550°F during heat up
- Set temperature achieved at 850°F
We recommend using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer to ensure the Baking Stone is up to temperature for best results.
Balance Dial Setting
The right-hand dial is the balance dial. This dial shifts power between the
top and the bottom heating elements. You can use it to change the way that
your base or pizza toppings cook.
- Balance settings on the Ooni Volt 12 are pre-set for each temperature. As you select your temperature the balance will automatically be set.
- During the heat-up sequence the balance indicator will turn off.
- Once your Ooni Volt 12 has reached the selected temperature the balance “indicator” will turn back on and can be adjusted.
- Turn the dial clockwise to shift the balance towards the top.
- Turn the dial counterclockwise to shift the balance towards the bottom.
Check out the Ooni Volt 12 Essentials Guide to view our recommended oven settings for different pizza styles.
Boost
If the base of your pizza is not cooking at the same rate as the top, Boost
can be used to recharge the stone.
- Turn the balance dial counterclockwise all the way around.
- Boost function has started when the icon starts to flash quickly. Boost will last for 45 seconds.
- Once Boost has stopped, your balance will return to the temperature-recommended setting. The bottom icon will flash slowly, Boost is not available during this time.
- When the icon stops flashing Boost mode is available again.
Mute
- To mute or unmute the dial chime, press the timer dial in for three seconds.
- This will not mute the timer or the “temperature reached” sounds.

Care and Maintenance
Storing
- You can use Ooni Volt 12 outside. Store indoors in dry conditions when not in use.
- Only store the baking stone inside the oven — don’t store food or other items in the oven cavity.
- Do not lean on or put items on top of your Ooni Volt 12. Doing so could damage your oven.
- Keep your oven clean while in storage with the Ooni Volt 12 Pizza Oven Cover.
- You can order the oven cover at ooni.com.
Baking Stone
- DO NOT use the baking stone over an open flame.
- Avoid extreme temperature change to the stone. DO NOT place frozen foods onto the stone if using temperatures in excess of 350°F.
- The stone is fragile and can break if bumped or dropped.
- The stone is very hot during use and stays hot for a long time after use.
- DO NOT cool the stone with water or use it when damp.
- To clean off burned food marks, wait until the stone is cool, use two hands to carefully take it out of the oven, remove any loose or large debris, then flip it over and slide it gently back in. The debris on the underside of the stone will burn away the next time you use your Ooni Volt 12.
- If your stone breaks: Turn your oven off, let it cool and unplug it before you remove the broken baking stone. If your Ooni Volt 12 is in warranty, get in touch with our support team to order a replacement. If your Ooni Volt 12 is out of warranty, you can buy a new baking stone at ooni.com.
Glass Door
Wait until Ooni Volt 12 is completely cool before cleaning the glass door. You can remove grease using dry paper towels or a dry cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use warm, soapy water, but make sure your Ooni Volt 12 is completely dry before switching it on again.
Oven Interior and Exterior
- Your Ooni Volt 12 should not require any interior cleaning. Any food residue should burn off when in use. You can use the Ooni Pizza Oven Brush to sweep away excess debris on the stone.
- Over time the interior of the Ooni Volt 12 may discolor slightly. This is completely normal.
- Don’t use oven cleaners or metal scourers to clean your pizza oven because they will damage the Ooni Volt 12.
- To clean the outside of your pizza oven, wait until it’s cool, unplug it and use a lightly damp cloth to wipe the oven body. Dry with a clean towel right away.
