Safety Legal Disclaimer

Must be read in full prior to use

Please read the present legal disclaimer fully before assembling, installing and using/servicing your Ooni. Failure to comply with all the provisions of the present legal disclaimer could result in property damage, serious bodily injury or even death.

1. Ooni is designed for outdoor use only. Ooni must always be placed outdoors, away from structures and never inside a building or a garage or in proximity to any enclosed area. Place your Ooni on a sturdy, level, stable and non-flammable surface and keep it clear and free from flammable or combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapours and liquids.
2. Be aware of any local laws or regulations that may specify a required distance between outdoor cookers and any structures, or that may limit outdoor flame of any type during drought or hazard periods.
3. Do not install or use your Ooni in or on boats or recreational vehicles.
4. Do not use your Ooni in high winds.
5. Your Ooni is not intended to, and should never be used as a heater.
6. Toxic fumes can accumulate and may cause asphyxiation.
7. Flames can blow outside of the metal enclosure:

a. at the back where the fire is;

b. from the top of the hatch when the lid is opened;

c. from the front of the oven when you open the door; or

d. from the top of the chimney.

1. Please keep away from the Ooni's openings and warn others around you.
2. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance of your Ooni may cause injury or property damage. Therefore, do not use your Ooni unless it is completely assembled and all parts are securely fastened and tightened.
3. Your Ooni should be inspected on a regular basis.
4. When using the charcoal/wood burner:

Add the kindling gradually to reach an optimum temperature. Adding too much kindling will enlarge the fire, risking damage to you or your Ooni.

1. When using the gas burner:

If the flame goes out, turn off the gas supply, remove door and wait 5 minutes before relighting.

1. When using your Ooni, there is a risk for your hands to be burned. Protective heat resistant gloves should be worn at all times to avoid burns and you should never set hot items on or near combustible surfaces. DO NOT touch any metal parts when your Ooni is operating. Only touch the wooden/plastic handles to open the door and lift the fuel hatch.
2. Never leave your Ooni unattended. Do not leave your Ooni unattended with the lid open while lit. Be aware of hazards (dry leaves, decking and other combustible materials) that may be in proximity to the Ooni while it is in use as they may present a fire hazard if any sparks are allowed to come into contact.
3. Keep all electrical cords away from your Ooni.
4. Ooni is to be used by responsible adults only.
5. Keep children, pets, and combustible items away from your Ooni at all times.

6. Do not attempt to remove any parts or move your Ooni when it is hot or while cooking.

7. DO NOT leave any hazardous objects such as lighters or barbecue lighting fluid next to your Ooni. Indeed, Ooni radiates heat to all directions.

8. Ooni remains hot even after visible flames have died down. Allow a minimum of 2 hours for it to cool down once you are done using your Ooni. DO NOT cover the Ooni immediately after it has been used and make sure all the fire and glowing embers have disappeared from the burner before storing it.
9. The approximate temperature of your Ooni (when being used) ranges from 250°F (120 °C) to 1000°F (550 °C).
10. Ooni is safe and hazard free when used as intended and according to safety guidelines, and will provide years of trouble-free use and enjoyment. It is the users' responsibility to maintain safe operation of the Ooni and to exercise reasonable standards of care at all times.

Lighting & extinguishing - Wood or charcoal

Ooni Karu comes with a wood and charcoal burner as a standard. Only use charcoal that is suitable for cooking and do not cook food until the fuel has a coating of ash. When cooking with wood, use pieces of dry, non-treated hardwood (up to 20 cm (8") long and 4 cm (1.5") in diameter) in the burner.

To light your Ooni Karu with either wood or charcoal:

Remove the chimney cap, open the chimney and ceiling vents and attach required door.

Remove the hatch and place a layer of charcoal or a small stack of wood in the charcoal/wood burner. Use a gas blowtorch or a natural fire-lighter to light the wood.

Once there is a fire going, slowly add more fuel. Replace the hatch and leave Ooni Karu to preheat for 10-20 minutes. Add more fuel as needed.

Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or re-lighting. Use only fire-lighters complying to EN 1860-3.

To extinguish

Let the fire burn down naturally and leave Ooni Karu to cool. Do not remove ashes until Ooni Karu has cooled completely.
