5. Istruzioni per l'uso

5.1 Bruciatura iniziale

Before cooking food for the first time, operate the oven for 15-20 minutes on high heat to burn off any manufacturing residues. Allow the oven to cool completely afterwards.

5.2 Procedura di accensione

• Assicurarsi che la valvola della bombola del gas sia aperta.
• Push in the control knob and turn it counter-clockwise to the 'HIGH' position.
• Press and hold the igniter button (usually marked with a lightning bolt symbol) for 3-5 seconds until the burner ignites. You should hear a 'click' and see a flame.
• If the burner does not ignite, release the control knob, turn it to 'OFF', wait 5 minutes, and repeat the process.

5.3 Preriscaldamento

Once ignited, allow the oven to preheat for 15-20 minutes on the 'HIGH' setting. The Cordierite pizza stone needs to reach a high temperature for optimal cooking. The built-in thermometer can help monitor the internal temperature.

5.4 Cottura della pizza

• Carefully launch your pizza onto the preheated stone using a pizza peel.
• Monitor the pizza closely. Gas pizza ovens cook very quickly (often in 1-2 minutes).
• Rotate the pizza periodically (every 20-30 seconds) using a turning peel to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
• Remove the cooked pizza with a peel.
