IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
20 Do not cover any part of the baker with metal foil. This will cause
overheating of the baker.
When using electrical appliances, these basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
1 Read all instructions.
2 The exterior of the baker will become very hot during use. Do not
touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Do not place anything on
top of the baker.
3 To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or any
parts of the baker in water or other liquids.
4 Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near
children. This appliance is not recommended for use by children.
5 Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
6 Do not operate appliance with damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to the nearest Authorized Service Center for examination,
repair, or adjustment.
7 The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause hazard or injury.
8 Do not use outdoors.
9 Do not let the cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch
hot surfaces, including the stove.
10 Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated
baker.
11 Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing
hot oil or other hot liquids.
12 Turn the Timer Knob to the OFF position to turn the baker off, then
remove the plug. Always hold the plug, never pull the cord.
13 Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
14 Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted into baker, as
they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
15 A fire may occur if the baker is covered, touching, or near flammable
material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when
in operation. Do not store any item on top of the baker when in
operation.
21 Use extreme caution when removing trays or disposing of hot grease
or other hot liquids.
22 When operating the baker, leave at least four inches of space on all
sides of the baker to allow for adequate air circulation.
23 Always wear protective, insulated baker mitts when inserting or
removing items from the hot baker.
24 This appliance has a tempered, safety glass viewing window. The
glass is stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage.
Tempered glass can break, but the pieces will not have sharp edges.
Avoid scratching viewing window or nicking edges. If the viewing
window has a scratch or nick, contact our toll-free customer service
line before using the baker.
25 If using foil to cover oven-safe cooking containers, be sure that the foil
is securely wrapped over the container to keep it from coming in close
contact with the heating elements, which cause overheating or fire.
26 In the event that food in the baker should catch fire keep the lid
closed. Turn the Timer to the OFF position and unplug from the
outlet. Wait until the fire goes out before opening the lid.

About Wolfgang Puck ............................................................... 4
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.

Housing
Become familiar with your Baker and the functions by reading this
instruction manual fully before using. Always unplug your Baker and wait
until it has completely cooled prior to cleaning.
Clean the Baker according to the Care & Cleaning section of this manual.
It is necessary to do a trial run of your Baker to eliminate any protective
substance on the heating elements. Conduct the trial run in a wellventilated area as a small amount of smoke and odor may be detected.
This is normal and should be expected. Follow the procedure below for
the trial run.
1
Remove all accessories from the Baker and close the Lid.
2
Plug the Baker into a standard 120v grounded outlet.
3
Set the TEMP Knob to 450°F and the TIMER Knob to 20 to begin
the trial run process.
4
Once the time has expired your trial run is complete.

Operation
Your Baker Parts
Temperature Knob
Choose the desired or recommended temperature setting. The
temperatures on the control panel are a conversion to standard recipe
temperatures. Food in the Baker cooks both from Baker air temperature
and proximity to the heating elements.
Timer Knob
To activate the 30 minute timer, turn the TIMER Knob clockwise. When
the time has elapsed or the TIMER Knob is manually turned to the OFF
position, a bell will sound and the Baker will shut off. For cooking times
greater than 30 minutes, the timer will need to be reset by turning the
TIMER Knob to the additional required time.
Note:
For times shorter than 15 minutes, or when toasting, turn the TIMER
Knob past the 15 minute mark and then back to the desired time.
POWER Light (Red)
Illuminates when the Baker is plugged in.
READY Light (Green)
Illuminates when the Baker has preheated to the set temperature, and
will cycle on and off during the cooking cycle.
12” Deep Dish Pan
The Deep Dish Pan is ideal for baking deep dish pizzas or other food
items. If using both pans in the Baker place the Perforated Pan on top
of the Deep Dish Pan only. Never place the Deep Dish Pan on top of the
Perforated Pan in the Baker as this may create of risk of fire from the
food touching the top heating elements.
12” Perforated Pan
The pan with perforated holes is ideal when toasting, or cooking thin
crust, and regular crust pizzas when placed in the Baker by itself. The
Perforated Pan can also nest on top of the Deep Dish Pan when cooking
more delicate items when less bottom browning is desired.
Caution:
Appliance surfaces, pans, and food are hot during and after use! Do not
touch hot surfaces. Only use the Cool Touch Handle when opening the
Lid. We recommend using a kitchen towel or oven mitts when opening
the Lid as hot steam can be released. A kitchen towel can be used to
remove the pan from the Baker. Use heat resistant, non-metal utensils to
remove food from the pans.
Be sure that the TIMER Knob is set to OFF position before plugging the
cord into the outlet and when unplugging the Baker after use. To avoid a
potential burn injury, NEVER cook or preheat the Baker with Lid open.
Note:
The Baker’s heating elements will only operate if the TIMER Knob is
turned to a timed setting. When the timed setting has elapsed the
Baker’s heating elements will turn off.
1
Prepare your food on the desired pan.
2
Depending upon the recipe your Baker may or may not require
preheating. For packaged frozen pizzas we recommend placing
the pan with food in the Baker before starting the preheat cycle.
Simply add 5 minutes to the packaged directions cooking time.
Caution: If cooking prepackaged food ensure all packaging
materials are removed prior to placing in the Baker to avoid risk of
fire.
3
Fore recipes that require preheating turn the TEMP Knob and
TIMER Knob to the desired position.
4
Once the READY Light has illuminated you can place your pan
with food into the Baker.
5
When the timer has expired or you have set it to the OFF position
open the Lid fully and remove the pan from the Baker.

Helpful Hints
It is recommended that pizzas are rotated a quarter turn halfway
•
through the cooking process.
If less bottom browning is desired for items such as cookies, biscuits,
•
etc. we recommend placing them on the Perforated Pan which is
then placed on the Deep Dish Pan in the Baker. This will allow air to
circulate in between the pans and prevent burning the bottoms.
If preheating, ensure that all pans are removed from the Baker.
•
Ensure that food is not contacting the heating elements. The
•
Perforated Pan should only be used when toasting bread or bagels,
cooking thin crust pizzas, or other thin food items. Rising crust pizzas
and all other foods should be cooked in the Deep Dish Pan which
provides more clearance from the top heating element.
