FIRST USE
Before using the oven, wait at least 5 days from installation. The oven may require a good drying
before use. Start the ignition with small fires the duration of a couple of hours in order to favor the
complete drying. Proceed only after gradually increasing the temperature. It is recommended for
first lighting qundo and the furnace is installed outside of the not to exceed 100 de-grees in order
to avoid cracks in the material. Use the same procedure after long periods of inactivity. The po-
rous material of the furnace promotes breathability and moisture evaporation. After about 50/60
minutes of fire , the oven starts to become white internally at this point we have reached about
250 degrees and residues blacks are burned. From this moment the oven is ready for use. COO-
KING WITH DOOR OPEN
We recommends cooking with the door open, pizza, toast, buns, grilled meat, fish etc.. Move the
wood and the fire on one side of the oven and place the food on the opposite side to cook them.
For continuous coo-king add wood occasionally using the same to move the coals. COOKING
WITH THE DOOR CLOSED:
Remove wood coals and ashes with a brush when the oven is at the desired temperatures (pos-
sibly using a soft brush that will not damage the fire). Close the oven a few minutes to distribute
the heat evenly and then fit the food to be cooked. Warning: Never clean the oven with a wet cloth
when the oven is hot, the tempe-rature brusce cause various problems and are the basis of the
reasons for breakage or collapse. Thanks to the thermometer installed outside of the furnace it
is possible to follow the firing temperatures. It is recommended to use dry wood not chemically
treated
PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
IF THE OVEN IS SMOKING:
Make sure the wood is not too wet. Be sure to create a flame and gradually add wood only with
steady flame to avoid deposits of unburned wo-od main source of smoke. In the case where the
oven is outside control the positioning of the flue, while in closed environments verify the proper
circulation of air in the room. If the oven temperature does not rise: Make sure that the fire is on
one side of the furnace and not in front of the mouth. Keep the flame alive for 40/50 minutes. Do
not use wood or unburned coal. Adding fuel to the fire gradually. If the exterior walls of the oven
than are more 40 ° is likely that the insulation is insufficient or inadeguate. If the oven cools too
quickly: This can happen during the first use or after long periods of inactivity. Check the outer
insulation of the oven. If the flame goes beyond the mouth of the furnace or flue pipe: Excessi-
ve heat will damage the oven and does not bring any improvement in performance of the same.
Reduce the flame in excess closing the mouth of the furnace and by limiting the inflow of air. the
fire is too little and fails to send temperatures in the oven. Check that there are no water leaks or
moisture in the oven.
If cracks or veins appear after use: is perfectly natural that appear after the first use of the veins
or cracks in the refractory material. The above veins or cracks serve to accommodate the normal
thermal expansion and are an intrinsic characteristic of the material itself.
NOTE: In order to ensure that neither party suffers damage by following our step by step.
