Seasoning the pizza pan
The pan provided with your pizza oven is made
of carbon steel and requires special care. Please
season the pan using the following instructions
before first use.
WARNING
It is important to note that during the
seasoning process the oven will be at
a temperature above the flash point of
the oil used. This might cause the oil to
spontaneously flash or ignite. To minimize this
risk do not exceed the amount of oil described
in the instructions below and keep the door
fully closed at all times during the process. If
fire or flash is observed, do not be alarmed,
keep the door closed and any flames will
extinguish themselves quickly.
1. Set the STYLE dial to 750°F (400°C) and
allow the oven to preheat.
2. Wipe the pizza pan with a dry paper
towel or cloth.
3. Add no more than ½ teaspoon of lard,
vegetable or flaxseed oil (not olive oil)
to the paper towel and rub a thin layer
of oil around the inside of the pan and
handle bracket.
4. Put the pizza pan onto the deck in the
preheated oven (AT TEMP light will remain
lit, and will cease flashing) for 10 minutes.
5. Remove the pan carefully and place
on a heat proof surface.
6. Reapply no more than another ½ teaspoon
of lard, vegetable or flaxseed oil (not olive
oil) to the paper towel and rub a thin layer
of oil around the outside side of the pan.
7. Put the pan in a preheated 750°F (400°C)
pizza oven for a further 10 minutes.
8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 for a second time.
Your pan is now ready for use. We recommend
regular seasoning for best performance and to
extend the life of your pan.

Cleaning the pizza pan
For regular cleaning, we recommend washing
the pan by hand with warm water and mild
soap, if necessary. Dry the pan thoroughly
and season according to the seasoning guide.
WARNING
Never put the pizza pan in the dishwasher.
Storing the pizza oven
1. Ensure the oven and all accessories are cool,
clean and dry.
2. Ensure the Active Deck (pizza stone) is
inserted into the oven.
3. Ensure the door is closed.
4. Store the appliance in an upright position
standing level on its support legs. Do not
store the pan or anything else on top. The
only exception is the pizza peel and the
optional Breville Bamboo Cutting Board.
