CARE AND MAINTENANCE

There is very little care and maintenance needed. The Outdoor Pizza Oven is designed and made of materials that will last
many years with normal use. Following these instructions will improve the longevity and quality of cooking. To ensure safe
operation of your oven, the area of cooking should always be kept free of combustible materials of any type, such as gasoline
or other flammable vapors or liquids.
Outside Oven Parts - This is powder coated steel. It can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water and a soft sponge
Firebox - Regularly clean out any debris that finds its way to the bottom of the firebox like melted cheese, or stray toppings
General - This oven, like all equipment, will look better and last longer if kept out of the weather when not in use.
Caution: Do not store propane cylinders in enclosed areas. When using a cover or moving the oven, always wait until the
oven has cooled for at least 30 minutes.
• Do Not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
This unit must be kept in an area free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liq-
uids.
Make sure all openings into the oven body are free of blockages or debris and there are no objects or materials
blocking the flow of combustion or ventilation.
Check burner air inlet openings (behind the inlet guard on the right end of the oven body) for insect nests or block-
ages. Make sure the slots in the burner tube are clear.
When the oven is not in use, turn the control knob and the knob on the propane cylinder to the "OFF" position,
then detach the regulator from the propane cylinder.
For outdoor use only, if stored indoors, detach propane cylinder and store outdoors. Propane cylinders must be
stored out of reach of children.
IMPORTANT
First-time use: It is important that the oven be lit and allowed to heat up for at least 30 minutes before any food
is placed on the pizza stone. It is normal for some smoke to appear during the initial operation of the oven. After
initial heating, the oven is ready for use.
