Please remove them once the oven is located to its final location and use hand holds below. Do not move Dome whilst in operation or when it is still hot.
Page 19
Never attempt to move the oven on your own. Two people should pick up the oven lifting from under the rounded ends of the oven, do not use the mouth of the oven as a lifting point. Remove anything loose and all transit packaging in the oven before moving.
732mm OVEN PLACEMENT When deciding where to place Dome ensure the area is large enough to 630mm accommodate the oven with 5cm around the base of the dock for air intake. It is important nothing is blocking the meshed panels as this will affect the performance of Dome.
Page 21
We recommend the height of the floor to be around the level of the bottom of the users elbow (usually around 120cm from the ground) Ensure the surface the oven is being placed on is completely level, stable and capable of easily holding the weight of the oven - 60kg.
The flue is designed to have a rain guard which has a 5mm gap from the Dome. FLUE ASSEMBLY The rain cap prevents moisture from getting into the oven and should only be used when the oven is cooled and not in use.
Page 23
STEAM PLUG The steam plug should always be inserted into Dome unless you are using the oven in conjunction with the steamer accessory. ASH TRAY Before firing the oven, make sure you have removed the ash tray and disposed of any packaging. The ash tray should always be inserted into its slot when the oven is in use.

Gas bottle setup WARNING It is important for the safe usage of Dome that the gas bottle is secured to the oven as specified in the instructions below. ULPG BOTTLE SETUP Remove F003 and replace with the eye bolt and chain that is in the box with the gas regulator.

We recommend using 9kg gas bottle in conjunction with Dome. Connect the regulator to the gas cylinder, following the instructions for your regulator accordingly. Do not force the regulator as this could damage the gas bottle.
Page 37
WARNING: If at any point you smell gas: Shut off the gas from the cylinder, turn off the switch on Dome and extinguish any open flames. If odour continues, move away from the Dome and gas supply then contact your gas supplier or fire service.
Remove all packaging before attempting Do not touch! The Dome can get to light the gas burner. extremely hot when in operation. Be sure to wear protective gloves when operat- Please take a moment to review all of ing the oven.
Page 39
Keep the cylinder outdoors in its upright position. Do not connect multiple gas cylinders to Dome or store a spare within the same vicinity. Never use a naked flame to check for gas leaks. Use only hose and regulator supplied with appliance.
Page 40
PUCK CONFIGURATION (GAS) When firing the oven on gas you should have the burner guard over the burner and the stone puck covering the ash shoot.
Page 41
INSTALLING THE IGNITER BATTERY Before using the gas burner for the first time you’ll need to install an AAA battery into the ignition module. To do this remove the rear panel on the dock to find the module. Unscrew the cap and place the battery in (negative end first).
Page 42
CONNECTING THE GAS HOSE To attach the quick connection gas hose to your Dome pull the collar back on the connector and place the hose onto the gas inlet. When you release the collar it should return to its original position freely.
Page 43
ANTICLOCKWISE REGULATOR Ensure the gas bottle is turned off. Align the regulator and the gas bottle threads and carefully begin to tighten ensuring the threads aren’t crossed. Continue to tighten until a tight fit has been made. This connection must be tested for leaks before using the oven.
Testing For Leaks If there is a leak at the hose to oven WARNING connection, re-tighten the fitting with a spanner and check for leaks by apply- You should always check for gas leaks ing a soap-and-water solution to the every time you disconnect and recon- highlighted areas with a brush.

Pilot Light Ignition To ignite the pilot light press the control knob in until you hear a constant clicking sound. Then, still pressing, turn the knob 90˚ and hold it there until the pilot light is lit. You may not be able to see the naked flame but there should be clear reflections of it on the internal sides of the oven.
First Firing Only when you have a pilot light, turn the control dial anti-clockwise and the burner should light. On your first firing we highly recommend to put the burner on a medium to low flame for 30 minutes to help cure the oven before moving to a high flame.
Page 47
Gas Flame The flame should be yellow in colour and roll along the top of the oven.

5 minutes and retry ignititing it. If the problem persists still review the cleaning and maintenance instructions to remove debris in the burner. If the problem persists after trying the following solutions please contact Gozney for further support.
Page 49
After cooking, be sure to turn off the gas from the gas cylinder first before turning of the Dome. This will allow any gas left in the burner or pipe to be used up safely. Three minutes after turning the gas off...
Maintenance CLEANING THE VENTURI If your burner’s flame is overly yellow or making more noise than usual you may have debris blocking the venturi. When the oven is turned off and cool, remove the maintenance hatch and use a vacuum cleaner with a long plastic nose to remove any debris.

First Firing WARNING: Before lighting the oven, ensure you have adhered to the extrac- tion specified in this manual. If you are unsure, do not use the oven. Never use flammable liquids including, but not limited to, barbecue lighting fluid, petrol or lighter fluids to start or boost a fire in this oven.

Moving The Fire Minutes Approx Once the fire has established itself in the centre of the oven push it over to the left and continue to feed it for approx- imately 30 minutes or until the oven is fully saturated. Then move the fire to the right of the oven (over the mesh puck).
Page 59
The flame from the wood fire should roll across the length of the oven’s roof. Avoid overfeeding the fire, there should never be flames coming out the mouth of the oven. If you are struggling to get a good flame, ensure the wood you are using follows our guidelines at the begin- ning of this chapter.

Ash Tray FLAME TYPE AND TEMPERATURE Large rolling flames. Temperatures of 400˚C+ Small flames. Temperatures of ˚ C - 350 ˚ C After moving the fire over the mesh puck turn the control dial on the ash tray to the fully open position. This allows more oxygen to get to the fire and will help Embers, fires died down.

Page 66
Cleaning The Oven INTERNAL The best way to clean the inside of the Dome is to burn off any food debris or soot that is left behind. When the oven is over 343˚C it will start self cleaning and any burnt on food will burn off after a period of four hours.
Page 67
When the oven isn’t in use it should be kept under cover away from rain. If you are placing a cover directly on Dome, ensure it’s completely cooled down before covering. When using the oven after a long spell of no use, we recommend firing the oven as if it is a first firing.
Replacing The Probe Only when the oven is cold, remove the rear panel to access the probe terminal. The terminal is held with a magnet so can be removed from the dock easily to gain better access. Lift all the levers on the left hand side of the terminal to release the probe wires.
Page 69
Push the new probe's wires into the hole and feed them through until they are visible from inside the rear panel. Hand tighten the probe in place, avoid using a spanner as you may damage the probe. BEWARE: Don’t over tighten probe.
Page 70
To wire the new probe, lift all the levers on the left hand side up and insert the wire into the holes on the side of the junction. The pattern/colour of the wire should match the corresponding wire on the opposite side of the junction. When the wire is fully inserted, push the lever back to its original position to clamp the wire in place.
Page 71
Double check the probe is functioning by checking the digital temperature display and return the panel to the back of the oven.
