Operation
IX. CAUTION: In the event of power
failure, do not attempt to operate oven
until power is resumed.
NOTE: Inspect the gas hose (if used) before each use of the oven.
If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or
the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the oven
being put in operation. The replacement hose assembly
shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
Lighting & Shutting down Instructions: Refer to
related section in Installation portion of this manual and
label located on oven front panel.
To cure the oven on first firing and release the moisture
from the oven dome, the thermostat should be set at
approximately 212ºF (100ºC) over a period of 2-3 days.
Curing the oven can be done with only the ambient
burner turned “ON”. Use one tank of propane or get the
oven to 250ºF (121ºC) for 16 hours in duration. This can
be split into two different 8-hour time periods.
Do not cook with the door closed. All cooking should be
done with the door open.
Note: Due to thermal expansion, small cracks may
appear in the dome or hearth during the curing process.
This is normal and the quality of your oven will not be
compromised.
This oven can be operated as a gas oven or as a hybrid
oven:
For gas operation, follow Lighting & Shutting down
Instructions.
For hybrid operation, wood can be inserted on the
cooking surface after oven temperature reaches
thermostat setting.
Note: Use only small amounts of wood to enhance the
flavor of foods. NEVER place wood on top of or direct
contact with the ambient burner at the back of the
oven.
