10
When operating the oven, keep at least four inches of space on all sides of

touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
15
A fire may occur if the oven is covered, touching, or near flammable material,
including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. Do not

cools down.
16
Extreme caution should be used when using containers other than metal or
glass.

Table of Contents
In the beginning, there was
Wolfgang Puck. There were
cooks and there were kitchens
and there were people eating
food, but the world had never
seen anything like Spago—
with its California cuisine, its
casual elegance, and its chef
whose genuine warmth and
love of craft redefined the
dining experience. And they
came—from LA and from
everywhere—to experience
the future. Wolfgang Puck
shaped the modern culinary
landscape: he was the first
celebrity chef, the inventor
of fusion cuisine, the first in
farm-to-table. His work is
inspired by California living,
and an insistence on only the
freshest ingredients. From
his legendary fine dining icons, his entrepreneurial spirit has built
an empire—from dining, to catering, to products for the home—
touching the lives of millions around the globe. Today, as always,
Chef Puck is earnestly, restlessly, tirelessly at work behind the scenes
inventing what’s next. He is driven by a genuine love of his craft, a
passion for what’s possible, and its potential to change the world.

Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Wolfgang Puck Pressure
Oven, breakthrough technology in the world of cooking. After years of

and improved performance to make your life easier and your meals

oven chamber allow for faster cooking and improved flavor, without

baked goods without the need of convection fans or rotating pans.
