1. First, ensure the control knob is set to off and have aquick check inside your Pizza Maker to
see that nothing is inside your oven other than the cooking stone.
2. Plug your Pizza Maker into a 240V plug. To turn your Pizza Maker appliance on, simply turn
the cooking temperature control knob to the medium heat setting 1.5. You will notice the
heat indicator light go on, this indicates that your Pizza Maker is pre-heating. By pre-heating
your oven before using, you will achieve better baking results.
3. Your heat indicator light will turn off in approximately 5 minutes indicating that your Pizza
Maker has pre-heated and is ready for use.
4. Place your cooked or un-cooked pizza dough directly onto the metal paddles and add your
favourite toppings. Never over-fill or mount your topping too high on your pizza. The topping
should always be below the height of the top-heating coil to avoid burning.
5. Making sure your Pizza Maker is pre-heated, slide your pizza off the aluminium paddles and
directly onto the heated stone. Warning, the pizza stone and the handles will be extremely
hot. Do not touch it at any time until it has had a chance to cool down.
6. Close the lid of your Pizza Maker and turn control knob to 2.5 and allow your pizza to bake
for 4-5mins, or until the desired taste. Remember, every pizza may have a different crust
thickness or topping, some pizzas may cook 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 counter clockwise
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 stone.
9. Do not use sticky dough on the stone or metal paddles. If your dough is sticky,
we recommend you use a pizza tray to par-cook the pizza then slide directly off onto the
stone, or flour the stone and place dough directly on top.
10. Once you have cooked your pizza, turn the control knob back down to 1.5, then proceed
with preparing your next pizza. Once this is ready, place into the oven and then turn the
oven back up to 2.5. Repeat this process if cooking further pizzas.
