General cooking instructions

Pizzas and similar products have cooking times and temperatures that depend on the shape and thickness of the dough, in
addition to the quantity and type of added ingredients.
For these reasons, it is always advisable to perform some cooking tests beforehand, in order to better understand how the
oven works and its features.
The indicative oven settings are as follows:
•
Keep the chimney valve closed until the oven has reached the set temperature;
•
For best results, it is preferable to cook directly on the stones.
•
Set the top temperature between 300°C and 320°C, and set the bottom temperature between 250°C and 280°C when
cooking directly on the stones.
If you make multiple successive batches, increase the top to 350°C and the bottom to 300°C.
•
If you are cooking with a baking tray, reverse the recommended values.

Using the chimney valve

The vent valve enables the cooking chamber fumes and vapours to flow out whilst maintaining its heat.
It is recommended to keep the valve completely closed when the oven is heating up in order to reach the desired temperature
as quickly as possible. During cooking adjust the valve according to requirements.

Switching off the oven

To switch the oven off follow the procedure below:
•
Hold the "SWITCH ON/OFF" key pressed down for 1 s;
•
Turn the general switch to the 0 position.
