What type of gas does the Cuisinart CPO-401 use?

It uses liquid propane (LP) only. Do not use natural gas. It is designed to connect to a standard 20-lb propane cylinder.

How do I clean the pizza stone?

Let the stone cool completely. Scrub it with a stone brush and flat-edge scraper. If needed, use a damp cloth with hot water to remove burnt-on debris. Do not use soap, chemicals, or oil. Let the stone dry thoroughly before storing.

How long should I preheat the oven?

After lighting, close the lid and pizza door and preheat on high for 15 minutes. Then turn the knob to the 'PIZZA' setting and wait for the thermometer to reach that setting before cooking.

How do I leak test the gas connections?

Make a soap solution (1 part liquid detergent to 1 part water). Apply it to all gas fittings with a spray bottle or brush. Turn on the gas (but do not light the oven). If bubbles appear, there is a leak. Tighten the fittings or call customer service if the leak persists.

SAFETY INFORMATION

The Fuel System

Gas grills and ovens are used safely by millions of people when following simple safety precautions.

The items in the fuel system are designed for operation with this oven. They must not be replaced with any other brand. (See parts list for replacement items.)

GAS BURNER: The gas burner is constructed of stainless steel and should not require maintenance other than inspection for insects/nests inside the air intake slots.

FUEL SUPPLY HOSE

The hose connected regulator provided with this appliance is 42 inches length. Keep the fuel hose away from any heated surface(s).

PROPANE FUEL: Warning - propane is a flammable gas. Improper handling may result in an explosion and/or fire and serious accident or injury. Your oven is designed to operate with propane (LP) gas only and is equipped with the proper orifice for propane gas.

Caution: Do not connect this oven with any gas supply other than propane. Propane gas is heavier than air and settles in lower areas. Make certain adequate ventilation is available when using your oven. The gas cylinder may be stored outside in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of children when the oven is not in use. If the appliance is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder.

The LP gas cylinder shall be used only outdoors in a well-ventilated space and not in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. The Outdoor Pizza Oven may be stored indoor if the LP gas cylinder is removed and stored outdoor. The LP gas cylinder (not included) is threaded for connection directly to the gas regulator supplied with this appliance. Care should be taken when threading the cylinder to the regulator to engage threads correctly to achieve the proper and intended connection. When disconnecting or connecting the gas cylinder, be careful that the regulator does not strike the oven, the ground, or any other surfaces. Replace the protective cap over the threaded cylinder connection when removed from oven. If any difficulty occurs when connecting or disconnecting the cylinder to the regulator assembly, contact your local gas supplier for assistance.

When re-connecting the LP gas cylinder to the regulator, be sure to hand-tighten until snug. This connection should be inspected for damage and leak tested after each re-connection.

To Leak Test, make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the fitting. Bubbles indicate leaks. For more details on leak testing, refer to page 11.

Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. Do not use the oven until all connections have been checked and do not leak.

WARNING:

• Always operate the oven on a tabletop, no higher than 32 inches.
• Place the propane tank on the ground immediately adjacent to the oven, no less than 24 inches from the oven.
• Failure to follow these instructions could cause the propane tank to overheat and vent propane which could ignite causing serious personal injuries or property damage and/or a tripping hazard over the gas hose or propane tank.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Before beginning assembly, installation or operation of product, make sure all parts are present. Compare parts with package contents list. If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to assemble, install or operate the product. Contact customer service for replacement parts.

STEP 1

- There are two brackets assembled to the bottom of the oven body for shipping. Please remove them but keep the screws to assemble the legs at a later step. These brackets can be discarded after assembly.

STEP 2

• Attach the legs (2) to the bottom of the oven body (1) using 4 of the Screws (A) removed in step 1 and 4 additional Screws (A) found in the hardware pack.
  NOTE: Two of the four legs have rating and safety information for the oven, we recommend attaching these legs in the back so that the labels are not visible during use.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 3

• Remove screws from the lid handle (3) before assembling to the front door.
• Flip the front door open and attach the lid handle to the front of the door by inserting 2 screws through the back of the door as shown below.

STEP 4

- Place the control knob (4) on to the valve stem as shown below. Push until the gap between the knob and bezel is gone.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 5

• Open the lid and place the Pizza Stone Rack (5) into the oven. The round brackets on the rack should face upwards.
• Place the Pizza Stone (6) on top of the rack so that it is held in place by the round brackets of the rack. If the round brackets do not capture the stone, check to see if the rack is upside down.

STEP 6

• Attach the regulator with hose to the propane cylinder by turning the regulator handle clockwise as shown below. If the unit is not in use, the gas must be turned "OFF" at the propane cylinder.
• Check all gas supply fitting for leaks before each use. Do not use the oven until all connections have been checked and do not leak (see "Leak Testing" instructions on page 11)
• Place the oven on table as shown below. We recommend using this oven on a 32" high table.

• Ensure the pizza stone is in place per the assembly instructions and that the lid is open before attempting to light the oven.
  • After the oven is lit, close the lid and pizza door and preheat the stone on high for 15 minutes.
• Before placing your pizza in, turn the contorl knob to the "PIZZA" setting on the dial and allow the thermometer to reach the corresponding setting. This will help to match the stone temperature with the ambient temperature of the oven for even cooking on the top and bottom.
• Open the front pizza door and use a pizza peel to place the pizza in to the oven and center it on the stone.
  NOTE: Dust your pizza peel with flour or cornmeal to prevent sticking when transferring pizzas to and from the stone.
• Keep pizza door and lid closed while pizza is cooking.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes or until desired doneness is reached.
• To ensure your crust cooks evenly, it is necessary to turn your pizza at least once during cooking. After putting the pizza in the oven, use a pizza peel or pizza turner to rotate the pizza 180 degrees around the 2 minute mark. You can turn the pizza additional times to achieve your desired doneness.
  NOTE: Cooking times can vary based on outdoor conditions, use your best judgment when deciding the time to turn your pizza.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR PIZZA STONE

1. Let the stone cool completely before attempting to clean.
2. Scrub the pizza stone thoroughly with a stone brush and flat edge scraper.
   (We recommend the Cuisinart CCB-399 pizza stone brush)
3. If needed, use a damp wash cloth with hot water to help break up any burnt-on debris before brushing again.
4. If using water, let the stone air dry or dry it with a clean towel thoroughly before storing.

Note: Water will help to loosen debris on the stone, but is not necessary if you can remove debris with the brush first. The less water you use on your stone the better.

ADDITIONAL TIPS AND TRICKS

Water should be the only moisture that your stone is exposed to. Do not use any soap, cleaning chemicals, or oils on your pizza stone. The pizza stone is made from cordierite stone which is a very porous material. It will absorb liquids that are applied to it and will damage your stone over time. If you allow your stone to get too wet it will not produce a crispy pizza crust. Liquids that are absorbed into your stone will affect the taste of your pizza as well. When heating your stone for the first time you may experience an odor coming from the stone. This smell is from the cordierite and is non-toxic. To help rid your stone of this smell, before the first use, heat your stone in your oven for 30 minutes at 400+ degrees F. On second use, most of the smell will have dissipated.

Only the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the oven should be used. Any replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly must be specified by the oven manufacturer. This oven is configured for Liquid Propane. Do not use a Natural Gas supply.

Total gas consumption (per hour) with all burners set on "HI":

Main burners 15,000 BTU/Hr.

Total 15,000 BTU/Hr.

The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, National Gas Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.

LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER REQUIREMENTS

(20-lb Cylinder)

A dented or rusty Liquid Propane cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. The Liquid Propane cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for Liquid Propane cylinders by the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods Commission.

The 20-lb cylinder must have a shut off valve terminating in a valve outlet specified, as applicable, for connection type QCC1 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection ANSI/CGA-V-1.

Storage of an outdoor cooking gas appliance indoor is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the outdoor cooking gas appliance. The cylinder system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal. The cylinder must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.

Manifold pressure: (operating) 11 inches water column (W.C.), (non-operating) 11.2 inches water column (W.C.).

The Liquid Propane cylinder must be fitted with an Overfill Protection Device (OPD).

Remove the plastic valve cover from the Liquid Propane cylinder. Make sure the oven gas hose does not contact hot surfaces like the oven body when the Liquid Propane cylinder is placed by the oven for use.

CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER

• To connect the Liquid Propane gas supply cylinder:
- The cylinder valve should be in the "OFF" position. If not, turn the valve clockwise until it stops.

- Make sure the cylinder valve has the proper type-1 external male thread connections per ANSI Z21.81.

- Make sure the burner valves are in the "OFF" position.

- Inspect the valve connections, port and regulator assembly. Remove debris and inspect the hose for damage.

- When connecting the regulator assembly to the valve, use your hand to tighten the nut clockwise until it stops. Use of a wrench could damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous situation

- Open the cylinder valve fully by turning the valve counterclockwise.

- Before lighting the oven, use a soap and water solution to check all the connections for leaks.

- If a leak is found, turn the cylinder valve "OFF" and do not use the oven until a local Liquid Propane dealer can make repairs.

Note: Do not over extend the hose to reach the propane tank. The hose should have some slack in it to ensure it does not tip.
