BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Dampen a sponge with lukewarm water. Wring it out thoroughly and wipe the
pizza stone clean once to remove production residues.
2. Clean the inside of the oven with water and a mild detergent to remove any
production residues.
USING THE PIZZA OVEN NERO
Always wear fireproof gloves while firing the pizza oven.
WOOD FIRING
1. Remove the firebox and fill it with fitting logs. Put a grill lighter in the middle
(Warning! Don't use liquid starters like spirit or petrol), cover it with a few
sticks or thin firing woods and ignite it.
2. Push the firebox into the pizza oven and wait until the wood burns evenly.
3. Pile up 1-2 logs via the feeder and wait until the wood is burned and no more
smoke rises from the chimney.
4. When the oven thermometer shows around 400 °C, open the door and push
the pizza to the center of the stone. Close the door.
5. Rotate the pizza by 180° once after 45 seconds.
6. You can observe the baking process of your pizza through the damper.
7. After 1 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the pizza dough, your pizza
is ready.
FIRING WITH COAL, BRIQUETTES OR PELLETS
1. Put the coal, briquettes or pellets with the grill lighter into the firebox. As soon
as it starts to burn, push the box into the pizza oven.
2. Pile up more coal, briquettes or pellets via the chute.
3. Wait until the charcoal or briquettes are completely burnt out and no more
smoke rises from the chimney.
