SAFETY FIRST

GEMELLI HOME RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
We are very safety conscious. Our oven can reach intense heat up to 750° F. We design and manufacture our products for the safety of our valued customer. In addition, we ask that you exercise a high degree of care when using any electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
When using electrical appliances, always follow basic safety precautions, including:

• Before using the smart pizza oven for the first time, remove and safely discard any packing materials and promotional labels.
• This appliance is intended for household use only. Do not use it in any type of moving vehicles or store it outdoors. Misuse can lead to injury.

Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children:

• Eliminate the risk of choking for young children by removing and safely disposing of the protective cover fitted on the power plug.

Ensure the surface where the Gemelli Home Pizza Oven is placed is stable, level, heat-resistant, and clean:

• Do not place the appliance near the edge of a countertop or table.
• Ensure adequate space around the oven. A minimum space of 4 in (10 cm) is required.
• This oven can be used outdoors, but it must be positioned away from weather elements that could cause damage. Do not store the oven outdoors.
• Avoid using or positioning the oven on a cloth-covered surface, near curtains, or other flammable materials.
• A fire may occur if the pizza oven comes into contact with or is covered by flammable materials such as curtains, draperies, walls, tablecloths, and plastics while operating.

Using the Gemelli Home Pizza Oven:

• Never place cardboard, plastic, paper, or other flammable materials inside the pizza oven.
• Do not store any materials other than manufacturer-recommended accessories in the pizza oven when not in use.
• The use of accessories and attachments not recommended or supplied with the pizza oven may cause injuries.
• Do not place any item on top of the pizza oven while in operation or in storage.
• Do not cover any part of the pizza oven with metal foil, as it may cause overheating and pose risks of electrical and fire damage.
• The outer housing of the pizza oven may become hot during and after cooking. Do not touch hot surfaces.
• Refrain from leaving the door open for extended periods.
• To disconnect, push the power “off” button, then remove the plug from the wall outlet after the fan has completely turned off.
• Allow your pizza oven to rest after it has been “on” for 60 minutes in a two-hour period.
• Use extreme caution when removing the included pizza pan or pizza stone, as they may be extremely hot. Do not place cooking utensils, roasting pans, or dishes on the glass door.
• We recommend using the dedicated pan with the pizza oven, although other suitable cast iron/carbon steel pans that fit are also acceptable.
• Do not use non-stick or coated pans in the oven.
• Exercise caution when using stainless steel pans, as they may discolor at high temperatures.
• When removing the pan from the pizza oven, use oven mitts and place the pan on heatproof material.
• Do not use any type of lid in the pizza oven or on top of any pan.
• Avoid inserting oversized food or metal utensils into the pizza oven, as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
• Always use the provided pizza peel for inserting a pizza into the cavity, unless cooking a pan pizza, to prevent direct contact with the oven.

Cleaning Caution – refer to Cleaning & Care instructions (page 28) for more detail:

• Unplug the appliance from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the oven to cool completely before cleaning or removing the pizza stone. Be aware that residual heat may remain even after the fan turns off.
• Do not clean the oven with metal scouring pads, as pieces can break off and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.

Power Cord Usage – refer to Short Cord instructions (page 6) for more detail:

• Keep the power cord of this pizza oven and those of nearby appliances clear of the oven housing.

• This appliance is equipped with a power cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
  The appliance must be grounded using a 3-hole properly grounded outlet. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock.

• Never cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord or use an adapter under any circumstances.

• Longer detachable power supply cords or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

• Prevent the power cord from hanging over the edge of a table or counter, touching hot surfaces, or becoming knotted.

• To avoid electric shock, never immerse the cord, plug, or the product in water or any other liquids.

• If the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if there is doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, consult a qualified electrician.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

• The installation of a residual current device (safety switch) (GFCI) is recommended to provide additional safety protection when using electrical appliances. It is advisable that a safety switch with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA be installed in the electrical circuit supplying the appliance. Consult your electrician for professional advice.

• Regularly inspect the appliance and power cord. If there is damage to the power cord or plug, or if the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any way, immediately stop use and email customer.support@gemellihome.com.

• Servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

WARNING: To prevent electric shock, unplug before cleaning and make sure that your pizza oven is completely cooled off.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
This pizza oven is equipped with a short power supply cord to minimize the risk of personal injury or property damage caused by pulling, tripping, or entanglement with a longer cord. If an extension cord is necessary, please follow these guidelines:

1. Ensure the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord is equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. Arrange the cord so it does not drape over the countertop or tabletop, preventing children from pulling on it or accidental tripping.
3. The extension cord must have a 3-prong grounding plug.

PIZZA FUNCTIONS

NEAPOLITAN PIZZA “BRICK OVEN”
(Recommended: 2 mins.)
Achieve authentic Neapolitan pizza results at home! Extremely high heat.
Expect a cooked but malleable crust with distinct blisters and charring (leopard spotting)
*Brick oven references specific heat performance characteristics that replicate that of a wood fired brick oven.

DIY – (750°)
(Recommended time: 3 mins.)
Extremely intense heat. Ideal for cooking charred vegetables.
You can adjust temperature and time
Note that the cooking time can vary depending on the type of vegetable being cooked.

THIN & CRISPY PIZZA (Recommended time: 4-5mins.)
This dough is rolled out thinly which gives the pizza a crisp result. The topping should be right to the edge and the sauce can be spread to the very outside of the pizza.

NEW YORK PIZZA (Recommended time: 7-8mins.)
The heat profile has been designed to achieve the iconic New York style pizza. The toppings and crust should be evenly browned and the pizza should have a chewy mouth-feel.

PAN PIZZA (Recommended time: 18mins.)
Amazing crunchy base, fluffy dough, and plenty of toppings with sauce almost to the edge. This setting requires the use of the pan provided with your pizza oven.
For a crispier crust, you can consider par baking your dough before applying sauces and toppings.

FROZEN (Recommended: 12-20mins.)
Great frozen pizza results. You can adjust the temperature to match what is on the package of your pizza.

QUICK START GUIDE

Due to the extremely high temperatures, place the pizza oven in a well- ventilated area as it will emit smoke when cooking.

• Insert the pizza stone into the pizza oven cavity.

• Plug your pizza oven into a supported GFCI outlet. Once plugged in, you will hear a beep and the Power will flash.

• Press the Power and the control panel will light up and default on Neapolitan function setting (page 10).

• Press the Pizza Function until you get the desired setting (page 10-12). The oven takes approximately 20-25 minutes to reach maximum temperature of 750°F with pizza stone inserted.

• Option to adjust pre-set pizza functions, you can adjust the temperature by selecting either the lower or upper heating element control. The temperature display (H) will start flashing and then press UP or DOWN

• Option to adjust time, press heating button twice and the TC time will start flashing in display (H). You can change setting by pressing UP or DOWN

• Press the Power to begin preheating process. The temperature light will flash in the display window. Which means the pizza oven is preheating.

• After the oven is preheated to the setting temperature, the temperature indicator light stops flashing and the buzzer sounds three times.

• You can now launch your first pizza (page 17). Use the pizza peel to place the pizza directly on the pizza stone (page 16). Do not use the peel when using the pizza pan. Close the oven door.

• Press the TC key to start the countdown timer. The TC indicator light will illuminate and start to countdown. The recom- mended approximate time will illuminate depending on the selected pizza style but can be adjusted before cooking to suit your preference.
  NOTE: The timer does not control the heat or power of your pizza oven. Its suggested time depends on dough, sauces, and toppings and is only a guide. You should never leave your pizza oven unattended.

• At the end of the cooking cycle, the oven alert will beep 5 times and the TC key light will flash for 2 mins. Remove your pizza and enjoy.

WARNINGS

ATTENTION: Make sure this pizza oven is preheated before placing the pizza in the cavity. If cooking multiple pizzas, wait until the temperature light turns solid on before loading your next pizza.
When cooking different types of pizza, it is advised to start with the type that uses the lowest temperature please.
When you intend to transport the product, remove the pizza stone from inside the oven and pack separately to avoid breakage.
WARNING: After cooking, to protect the internal electrical components, do not unplug the plug immediately.
Let the oven cool completely, and then unplug the plug from the wall.

PIZZA & PEEL TIPS

Here are some excellent tips for making homemade pizza:

1. Choose high-quality “00” flour and fresh ingredients for your pizza. “00” flour is an Italian-style, finely milled flour that is considered the gold standard for pizza dough.
2. Stretch the dough into a thin base, leaving a one-centimeter-wide space around the edge to form a crust that will puff up when exposed to high heat.
3. When cooking at lower temperatures and longer durations, keep an eye on New York, DIY, and PAN pizzas. If needed, rotate them midway through baking to ensure even cooking.
4. Allow a few minutes between pizzas for the oven temperature to recover. The temperature display will be solid and no longer flashing when it’s ready.
5. Avoid using excess flour, as it can burn on the stone, resulting in a bitter taste and yellow discoloration on the pizza’s base. Excessive flour also increases the risk of smoke and potential fire in the oven after removing the pizza.

NOTE: The peel needs to remain cool and clean to prevent the dough from sticking. Do not sit the peel under the pizza oven, while waiting to load the pizza onto its surface.

HOW TO LAUNCH PIZZA

HOW TO LAUNCH PIZZA INTO YOUR GEMELLI PIZZA OVEN

1. Make sure your peel, dough, and ingredients are within reach before starting. Cold dough is too springy; dough that is too warm is too loose. Stretch your pizza base at room temperature and use the included pizza peel to launch it into your Gemelli Home Pizza Oven.
2. Don’t forget the flour! Your hands and work area should be generously floured prior to working with the dough. Sprinkling flour, semolina, or cornmeal on your peel can help avoid the pizza base from sticking.
3. Check for holes or tears in the pizza base before adding your toppings. If sauce gets between the dough and the peel, the dough may stick and refuse to slide into the oven.
4. Give the peel a gentle shake to make sure the dough moves freely before adding any toppings. If it doesn’t slide around, add a little more flour beneath your base.
5. Keep your toppings light. Don’t add too much sauce or too many toppings, or they’ll weigh your pizza down and make it harder to launch into your oven.
6. Be efficient. Ensure your oven is fully heated and prepared before adding toppings to your pizza to reduce the chances of it becoming sticky.
7. If your pizza sticks, use the “hovercraft technique” to loosen it up. Lift the dough’s edge and blow gently underneath the base to form air pockets and distribute flour to the sticky spots. Adding extra flour, semolina, or cornmeal beneath your pizza can help
   to release the dough.

CLEANING & CARE

WARNING: Be sure to unplug the oven and allow it to cool before cleaning.
If desired, wipe the walls with a damp sponge, cloth or nylon scouring pad and mild detergent.
DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL SCOURING PADS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRAPE THE WALLS WITH A METAL UTENSIL, AS ALL OF THESE METHODS MAY DAMAGE THE CONTINUOUS CLEAN COATING.
All accessories should be washed in hot soapy water. The door can be wiped with a damp sponge and wiped dry with a paper or cloth towel. Clean the outside with a damp sponge.
DO NOT USE AN ABRASIVE CLEANER AS IT MAY DAMAGE THE EXTERIOR FINISH.
Don’t worry about your oven and stone changing color it’s completely normal and is the sign of a well-loved oven!

CLEANING YOUR PIZZA STONE

• To prevent damage to the stone, we suggest gently wiping the surface with a soft, damp sponge after each use.
• If it’s necessary to remove the stone for cleaning outside of the oven, handle it with utmost care.
• The pizza stone should not be submerged in water or placed in a dishwasher.
• Always put the pizza stone back into the oven after cleaning, before plugging in the power cord and turning on the oven.
• A natural patina will form on the stone’s surface with regular use. This is expected and will not impact the oven’s performance.

OVEN INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR
Allow the pizza oven to cool completely before cleaning the glass door. Remove grease using dry paper towels or a dry cloth. For a more comprehensive cleaning, use warm, soapy water, ensuring the glass door is dry before turning the oven on again. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as they will scratch the oven and glass surface.
Your Gemelli Home Pizza Oven shouldn’t need any interior cleaning. Food residue should burn off during operation. Over time, the oven’s interior may slightly discolor, which is normal.
Refrain from using oven cleaners or metal scourers, as they can damage your pizza oven.
To clean the oven’s exterior, wait for it to cool, unplug it, and use a lightly damp cloth to wipe the body. Dry it immediately with a clean towel.

TROUBLESHOOTING

POSSIBLE PROBLEMS AND EASY SOLUTIONS:

1. Oven will not switch “ON”
   – Ensure that the power plug is securely inserted into the outlet.
   – Plug the power cord into a different outlet or an independent outlet.
   – Reset the circuit breaker if necessary.

2. The TEMPERATURE light is flashing.
   – This indicates that the oven is not yet at the desired temperature for cooking.
   – Wait until the preheating light becomes solid before loading your pizza.

3. Steam is coming out of the oven door.
   – This is normal. The oven door is vented to release steam created from high moisture content foods.
   – If moisture is found on the bench top around the base of your product, simply wipe it dry.

4. There is a noise coming from the oven after it is turned off.
   – During cooking, cooling fans turn on to protect sensitive electronic components from overheating.
   – These fans remain on after cooking until the temperatures are low enough for the components.
   – Do not unplug the oven from the wall until these fans turn off.

5. Smoke is coming out of the oven.
   – This is normal during cooking due to the extremely high temperatures.
   – To reduce this, try to limit the amount of flour or semolina used on your peel.
   – It is also recommended to use the oven in a well-ventilated area.

6. Fire in the oven.
   – Close the door if it is still open.
   – If the fire does not self-extinguish within 20 seconds, unplug the unit, and keep the door closed until the fire is out.

7. Visible micro-cracking on pizza stone.
   – Micro-cracking on the glaze might appear over time.
   – This is not harmful and will not alter the quality of the product.
   – Micro-cracking is not a structural damage to the product.

BAKING TROUBLESHOOTING

• The most important factors that go into a successful pizza are temperature and time.
• If you want to cook a thin pizza quickly, set a higher temperature and reduce the cooking time.
• Cook thicker pizza and other bread-based dishes at a lower temperature for a little longer.
