BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
When using the oven for the first time, read the instructions in this manual.
-
Before starting to cook, preheat the oven for 10 minutes with the lid closed and the temperature adjustment knobs set to the maximum level. This will remove the packing oil that may remain after shipping and pre-heat the stone plate. This will not affect the performance of the oven, nor will it be necessary to repeat this process in the future.
-
Never use cooking oil or water directly on the stone when cooking, dressing or cleaning. When cooking with stone, place raw food (pizza) directly on the surface of the stone. Don’t worry about minor scratches or if the surface takes on a darker color.
This means that the stone has been well-conditioned. -
Never use a knife or a pizza cutter on the stone as they could damage the surface.
-
The oven is designed for making delicious pizzas with fresh pasta and frozen pizza bases. When using a frozen pizza base, allow it to defrost before putting it in the oven. This will allow you to get a crispy pizza. When cooking fresh dough, lightly flour the stone before placing the dough directly on the stone. If the dough is sticky, add more flour to the dough otherwise it will stick to the stone.
-
Extreme caution is required when opening the oven as the accumulated steam may escape quickly. It is recommended to wear gloves when opening the oven to ensure safety.
IMPORTANT! Do not drop part of the toppings of the pizza you are about to cook (oil, tomato, mozzarella, etc.) on the refractory stone hob, as this would involve the absorption of the liquid part of these ingredients by the refractory stone. These toppings must be prepared in such a way that they remain only on the pizza, without falling on the stone.
COOKING ON THE STONE
-
Make sure the temperature control knob is off and do a quick check inside the oven to make sure there is nothing besides the stone plate.
-
Connect the power cord to the 220-240V electrical outlet. To turn the oven on, simply turn the temperature control knob to the maximum heat level. The operation light will light up indicating that the oven is in the preheating phase. By preheating the oven before use, you will get better cooking results.
-
Preheat for about 10-15 minutes, after which the oven is ready for use.
-
Place the dough directly on the stirrers and add your favorite toppings. Don’t put too much topping on the pizza. The topping should always be below the height of the top heating element to avoid burning the top of the pizza.
-
Make sure the oven is preheated, and slide the pizza out of the blades directly onto the heated stone.
Attention! the stone plate and handles will be extremely hot. Do not touch them for any reason until they have completely cooled down. -
Close the oven lid and adjust the temperature control knob to the desired position and cook the pizza for 4-5 minutes, or until the desired taste is reached.
NOTE: Each pizza can have a different thickness or topping, some pizzas can cook faster than others. It is recommended to open the oven lid after 3 minutes to check the progress. If the pizza is not ready, simply close the lid and continue cooking until the desired taste is achieved. -
If the pizza is cooking too quickly, simply turn the temperature adjustment knob anticlockwise to a lower value to reduce the cooking temperature. To increase the temperature, turn the knob clockwise to a higher value.
-
When cooking with a frozen pizza base, allow the dough to thaw before use. Once completely thawed, slide the pizza directly onto the heated stone.
-
Do not use sticky dough on stone or pizza peels. If the dough is sticky, we recommend using a pizza pan to bake the pizza, then slide it directly onto the stone, or flour the stone and place the dough directly on top.
-
If you want to cook more pizzas, repeat the process.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE APPLIANCE

- To clean the stone, never use cooking oil or water, or detergents. Scrape off excess food with a spatula or stiff bristle brush and wipe with a clean paper towel or tea towel.
- To clean the blades, wash in warm water and mild dish soap. Do not leave them immersed in water as water saturation could damage them.
- Never use the stone for any purpose other than its intended use. Do not use a trivet as a handcuff stone. Never put liquids on both hot and cold stones.
- Extreme caution is required when opening the oven as accumulated steam can be released quickly. Oven gloves are recommended when opening the pizza oven to ensure safety
