For a crispier crust, par bake your dough before applying sauces and toppings.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before cleaning, ensure the oven is turned off by removing the power plug from the power outlet. Allow the oven and all accessories to cool completely before cleaning.

The outer surface of the appliance, the door, interior, and other accessories should all be cleaned after each use.

Do not clean with metal scouring pads or abrasive materials.

Wipe the outer surface with a soft, damp sponge. A non-abrasive liquid cleaner or mild spray solution may be used to avoid the build-up of stains. Apply the cleaner to the sponge, not to the appliance surface, before cleaning.

To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Do not use an abrasive cleaner or metal scouring pad.

Wipe the control panel with a soft damp cloth.

The walls on the inside of the oven feature a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. To clean any splattering that may occur while cooking, wipe the walls with a soft, damp sponge. For stubborn stains, please use a mesh cleaning cloth. Avoid touching the heating elements.

To remove baked-on grease from the accessories, soak the item in warm soapy water then wash with a soft sponge or soft plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

To extend the life of your accessories, we do not recommend that these be placed in the dishwasher.

Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the appliance on.

Troubleshooting

In most cases, when your Pizza Oven fails to work, the problems arising can be easily solved without having to call for a technician. Before calling for assistance, always check these points.

Problem	Possible Cause and Solution
Oven will not turn on	·Ensure that the power plug is securely inserted into the outlet. ·Plug the power cord into a different outlet or an independent outlet. ·Reset the circuit breaker if necessary.
The temperature light is flashing	·This indicates that the oven is not yet at the desired temperature for cooking. ·Wait until the light stops flashing before placing your pizza in the oven.
Steam is coming out of the oven door	·This is normal. The oven door is vented to release steam created from high temperatures and high moisture content of food. ·If there is moisture around the base, simply wipe it off. ·It is also recommended to use the oven in a well-ventilated area.
Noise from oven after it is off	·During cooking, cooling fans operate to protect sensitive electronic components from overheating. These fans remain on after cooking until the oven cools down. ·Do not unplug the oven from the wall until these fans turn off.
Error codes E1 or E2 display	·Sensor malfunction. Please call Customer Service.
