5. COOKING FROZEN PIZZAS
NOTE: MAKE SURE INDICATOR LAMP (6) IS ON BEFORE PLACING ANY PIZZA IN OVEN.
1. Follow manufacturers instructions on preparing/thawing frozen pizza for cooking.
2. Using the included wooden pizza peels or other suitable tool carefully lift pizza and place
on cooking stone in center.
3. If pizza sticks to peels, slowly incline peels away from cooking stone until pizza slides off
onto the cooking stone. A light dusting of flour on peels prior to inserting under pizza
may help reduce sticking.
4. Set the Temperature knob to the desired setting and turn the timer to the desired cooking
time. SUGGESTION: Temperature set at "2 – 2 ½", Timer set to 8 minutes.
5. When approximately ½ the cooking time has elapsed, carefully open oven lid and using
the corner of one of the pizza peels, rotate your pizza 180*. Close lid for reminder of
cooking time.
6. When timer rings, carefully open lid. DO NOT position exposed skin above oven when
opening lid as escaping steam can burn.
7. Using pizza peels or other suitable non-metallic instrument, insert under cooked pizza
and gently remove form cooking stone and place cooked pizza on suitable heat resistant
surface or other appliance to keep warm.
8. Close lid and reset timer if cooking another pizza. It is not necessary to reheat the
oven.
CAUTION! The cooking stone is very hot. Remember to remove the pizza peel or
other tools before closing the upper cover.
