HOW TO USE
First Time Use
When using your Pizza Maker for the rst time, please read the instructions contained in
this manual. Before cooking, let your oven run for 10 minutes with the lid closed on setting
4 to warm up the pizza stone to 608°F (320°C). This will burn o any lubricants from the
oven’s heating elements and will also help to pre-season your pizza stone. This will not
aect the performance of your oven, nor will it be necessary to repeat this process any
time in the future.
Never use cooking oil or water directly on the cooking ceramic when cooking, seasoning
or cleaning. When cooking with the ceramic, place the uncooked foods (pizza) directly on
the ceramic surface. Do not worry about small scratches or that your ceramic surface has
turned a darker color. This is a sign that your stone has been well seasoned.
Never use a knife or pizza cutter on the stone as this could damage the ne-grained
cooking surface.
The Pizza Maker is designed to make delicious pizza from fresh dough to frozen pizza
bases. When using a frozen pizza, allow the pizza base to thaw before placing in the oven.
This will result in a crispy cooked pizza. When cooking fresh dough, lightly our the stone
before placing the dough directly onto the stone. If you have sticky dough, add more our
to your dough as it will stick to the stone.

HOW TO COOK ON CERAMIC STONE SURFACE
1. First, ensure the control knob is set to o and have a quick check inside your Ceramic
Pizza Maker to see that nothing is inside your oven other than the cooking ceramic
stone.
2. Plug the power cord into a grounded 230V plug base. To turn your Ceramic Pizza
Maker appliance on, simply turn the cooking temperature control knob to the max
heat setting 4. You will notice the heat indicator light go on, this indicates that your
Ceramic Pizza Maker is pre-heating. By pre-heating your oven before using, you will
achieve better baking results.
3. Set the timer for 10 minutes for pre-heating, after that your pizza maker is ready for
use.
4. Place your cooked or un-cooked pizza dough directly onto the pizza paddles and
add your favorite toppings. Never over-ll or mount your topping too highon your
pizza. The topping should always be below the height of the top-heating coil to avoid
burning.
5. Once you have made sure your Ceramic Pizza Maker is pre-heated, slide your pizza o
the pizza paddles and directly onto the heated stone. Warning, the pizza stone and
the handles will be extremely hot. Do not touch it at any timeuntil it has had a chance
to cool down.
6. Close the lid of your Pizza Maker and keep the knob on setting 5 and allow your pizza
to bake for 4-5minutes, or until the desired taste. Remember, every pizza may have a
dierent crust thickness or topping, some pizzas maycook quicker than others. It is
recommended that you open the lid of your Pizza Maker after 3 minutes to check the
progress, if your pizza is not ready, simply close the lid and continue to cook until your
desired taste.

7. If your pizza is cooking too quickly, simply turn the cooking temperature
counterclockwise to a lower setting to reduce the cooking temperature. To raise the
cooking temperature turn the cooking temperature clockwise to a higher setting.
8. When cooking with a frozen pizza base, allow the dough to thaw before use. Once
thoroughly thawed, slide your pizza directly onto the heated ceramic stone.
