3. Place your pizza dough onto the spatulas and then add your favorite toppings. Important: Never over fill or
mount your topping too high on your pizza. The topping should always be below the height of the top heating
element to avoid burning.
4. Slide your pizza onto the baking stone by the spatulas.
Warning: The baking stone and its handles will be extremely hot. Do not touch at any time until cooled down.
5. Close the lid of your appliance. Turn the temperature control knob to position "5" and allow your pizza to bake
for 4-5 minutes. Adjust the baking time according to the dough thickness, toppings and your taste.
Note: It is recommended to check the progress in approximately 3 minutes. Do not open the lid to check the
pizza repeatedly, or the water inside will be evaporated. If your pizza is thin, turn the temperature control knob
to a lower setting to reduce the cooking temperature. To raise the cooking temperature, turn the knob to a
higher setting.
6. If you wish to cook more pizzas (one after another), repeat above process without preheating. Take steps 3-5
for reference.
If the temperature of your appliance becomes too high, leave the lid open for a few minutes after finished one
pizza and set the temperature setting back to position "4". Turn the setting to position "5" when you slide
another pizza onto the baking stone for cooking again.
