9.Pizza Peel (not shown) – Can be used to insert and remove the pizza mesh in the oven. Can also be used for cutting and serving pizza.

10.Pizza Stone – To achieve best results when baking bread, pizza and pie crusts. The stone absorbs excess moisture and distributes heat evenly to make the crust light and crispy. It fits on the rack to slide in and out of the oven easily.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove all packaging materials and any promotional labels or stickers from your new Cuisinart™ Pizza Oven. Be sure all parts (listed under Parts and Features) of your new appliance have been included before discarding any packaging materi- als. You may want to keep the box and packing materials for use at a later date.

Before using your Cuisinart™ Pizza Oven for the first time, remove any dust from shipping by wiping clean with a damp cloth. Clean the removable wire rack, pizza peel, and pizza mesh with warm water, a small amount of dishwashing liquid and a nonabrasive sponge or cleaning pad. The pizza stone can be wiped with a damp cloth, not with dishwashing liquid.

DO NOT IMMERSE THE BODY OF THE UNIT IN WATER.

1.Insert the wire rack into the grooves on both sides of the interior wall.

2.Insert the crumb tray. (Do not operate the pizza oven without the crumb tray in place.)

3.Place the pizza oven on a clean, flat surface where you intend to cook.

4.Plug the pizza oven into a 120 Volt 60 Hz AC electrical outlet.

5.Never thaw frozen pizza before baking. Your pizza oven is designed to bake it at 450°F.

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

The oven will get very hot during use. Use handles only and do not cover the appliance. The top of the pizza oven can be used as a plate warmer.

1.Plug the power cord into the wall outlet.

2.Lightly sprinkle the stone with cornmeal (flour can burn) prior to heating. Place the pizza stone in the oven to preheat.

3.Turn oven on by rotating the timer knob clockwise; the power indicator will light up. Preheat pizza stone by placing stone in oven and turning timer to 30 minutes.

4.Place pizza on preheated pizza stone and set timer for recommended baking time. The baking temperature is preset. When timer reaches the OFF/0 position, the power light indicator and pizza oven will turn off and a bell will signal pizza is ready.

If Using Fresh Pizza Dough:

•Prepare pizza dough on the pizza mesh by shaping and rolling the dough, simultaneously preheating the pizza stone, as mentioned above.

•Finish making the pizza by placing your favorite toppings on the dough.

•Slide the pizza mesh onto the pizza stone using the pizza peel.

•Once pizza is done, use the pizza peel to remove the pizza (including mesh) from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Do not remove the pizza stone. Separate the pizza from the mesh and place on pizza peel to cut it. A pizza cutter can be used directly on the peel to slice your pizza.

If Using Frozen Pizza:

•Once the oven has been preheated, place the frozen pizza on the pizza stone. The pizza mesh is not needed for frozen pizzas.

•Once pizza is done, use the pizza peel to remove the pizza from the oven. Do not remove pizza stone.
