When using your Pizza Maker for the first time, please read the instructions contained in this
manual. Before cooking, let your oven run for 10 minutes with the lid closed on setting 2. This
will burn off any lubricants from the oven’s heating elements and will also help to pre-season
your cooking stone. This will not affect the performance of your oven, nor will it be necessary
to
repeat this process any time in the future.
Never use cooking oil or water directly on the cooking stone when cooking, seasoning or
cleaning. When cooking with the stone, place the uncooked foods (pizza) directly on the stone
surface. Do not worry about small scratches or that your stone surface has turned a darker
colour. This is a sign that your stone has been well seasoned.
Never use a knife or pizza cutter on the stone as this could damage the fine-grained cooking
surface.
The Pizza Maker is designed to make delicious pizza from fresh dough and frozen pizza bases.
When using a frozen pizza base, allow the base to thaw before placing in the oven. This will
result in a crispy cooked pizza. When cooking fresh dough, lightly flour the stone before placing
the dough directly onto the stone. If you have sticky dough, add more flour to your dough as it
will stick to the stone.
Make any of the delicious recipes included in this booklet or you can make your own exciting
new recipes.
Extreme caution is needed when opening the Pizza Maker as built up steam may be quickly
released. Gloves are recommended when opening the pizza oven to ensure safety

Trouble Shooting Guide
PROBLEMThe heat indicator light goes on and off.
CAUSEThis is an automatic thermostat light.
SOLUTION The light will stay on until the oven has reached the desired
temperature setting.
PROBLEMTop of pizza burns.
CAUSETemperature of oven is too high.
SOLUTION When checking the pizza, if you think the top is cooking quicker
than the bottom, turn the oven setting back to 1, leaving the pizza to
continue cooking without the thermostat light on. Alternatively leave
the lid open for a couple of minutes so you can watch the pizza finish
cooking.
PROBLEMBottom of pizza burns.
CAUSE Temperature of oven is too high.
SOLUTION Make sure the oven has been pre-heated on setting 1. When the oven
light goes out, allow a couple of minutes for the stone to rest before
adding the pizza. When cooking additional pizzas one after the other
it is best to leave the lid open for a few minutes in between cooking
pizzas with the setting back to 1.
PROBLEMDirty Stone Base.
CAUSEMoisture on bottom of base.
SOLUTION Don’t worry if stone marks. The greater the marks, the better the
flavour it gives the pizza. Just scrape off any excess material with
the wooden paddles.

Cooking on the Stone
1. First, ensure the control knob is set to off and have aquick check inside your Pizza Maker to
see that nothing is inside your oven other than the cooking stone.
2. Plug your Pizza Maker into a 240V plug. To turn your Pizza Maker appliance on, simply turn
the cooking temperature control knob to the medium heat setting 1.5. You will notice the
heat indicator light go on, this indicates that your Pizza Maker is pre-heating. By pre-heating
your oven before using, you will achieve better baking results.
3. Your heat indicator light will turn off in approximately 5 minutes indicating that your Pizza
Maker has pre-heated and is ready for use.
4. Place your cooked or un-cooked pizza dough directly onto the wooden paddles and add
your favourite toppings. Never over-fill or mount your topping too high on your pizza. The
topping should always be below the height of the top-heating coil to avoid burning.
5. Making sure your Pizza Maker is pre-heated, slide your pizza off the aluminium paddles and
directly onto the heated stone. Warning, the pizza stone and the handles will be extremely
hot. Do not touch it at any time until it has had a chance to cool down.

for 5-6mins, or until the desired taste. Remember, every pizza may have a different crust
thickness or topping, some pizzas may cook quicker than others. It is recommended that
you open the lid of your Pizza Maker after 3 minutes to check the progress, if your pizza is
not ready, simply close the lid and continue to cook until your desired taste.
7. If your pizza is cooking too quickly, simply turn the cooking temperature counter clockwise
to a lower setting to reduce the cooking temperature. To raise the cooking temperature turn
the cooking temperature clockwise to a higher setting.
8. When cooking with a frozen pizza base, allow the dough to thaw before use.
Once thoroughly thawed, slide your pizza directly onto the heated stone.
9. Do not use sticky dough on the stone or wooden paddles. If your dough is sticky,
we recommend you use a pizza tray to par-cook the pizza then slide directly off onto the
stone, or flour the stone and place dough directly on top.
10. Once you have cooked your pizza, turn the control knob back down to 1.5, then proceed
with preparing your next pizza. Once this is ready, place into the oven and then turn the
oven back up to 2.5. Repeat this process if cooking further pizzas.
