Using and Lighting Wood Pellets
Only use 100 % hardwood pellets.
STEP 1: Check that the pizza oven door is in place. Remove the fuel box from the back of the unit. Using the wood pellet spoon, fill the fuel box with pellets. This should take approx. 3 spoonfuls. Replace the fuel box.
STEP 2: Light the pellets using either a fire lighter or a blowtorch.
WARNING: Never use spirits or petrol for lighting or relighting. Only use a blowtorch or fire lighters complying to EN 1860-3.
STEP 3: After 5 minutes, or once the pellets are lit, open the pellet channel lid using the pellet channel opening bar. Slide the pellet channel opening bar into the slot on top of the pellet channel lid and lift. Fill the pellet channel with pellets until they reach the bottom.
NOTE: Make sure the pellets in the fuel box are lit before adding more pellets to the pellet channel. Keep the pellet channel lid open until the pellets are lit. There will be some smoke when the pellets are added. After a few minutes this will subside.
STEP 4: Wait for the pellet level to drop. Add a small amount of pellets at a time.
NOTE: Adding too many pellets at once will prevent the pizza oven from reaching optimum temperature.
EXINGUISHING WOOD PALLETS
Allow the fire to burn down naturally and leave the pizza oven to cool. Once cooled, remove the fuel box and empty the contents into a steel bucket (not included) filled with cold water. Cooking Pizzas
NOTE. Pizzas can only be cooked in under 60 seconds if the pizza oven has reached optimum temperature. This is approx. 350-400 °C.

NOTE: Both homemade and store-bought pizza dough can be used.
STEP 3: Carefully remove the pizza oven door using the door handle. Slide the pizza from the pizza paddle onto the pizza stone. if the pizza is stuck on the pizza paddle, lift the dough at one side and gently blow underneath it. This will help to release the pizza. Once the pizza is in the pizza oven, carefully slide the pizza oven door back into place.
NOTE: The pizza oven performs best with the front door in place.
STEP 4: After approx. 30 seconds, carefully remove the pizza oven door and slide the pizza paddle under the pizza. Turn the pizza 180 °, then replace the door and cook for approx. 30 seconds.
STEP 5 : Before cooking another pizza, top up the wood pellets and wait approx. 1 minute for the pizza oven to reach optimum temperature.
WARNING: Do not operate the oven for extended periods without the front door in place. Only remove the door to add, remove or check on food items. Replace the door as soon as possible to prevent fire from escaping out of the back of the pizza oven.
