Oven Door – Baking Function:
The oven door is used when baking. The door should be removed when cooking pizza. Use
safety gloves rated to 800°F when removing the door to avoid contact with the hot surface.
Place the door on the storage tray of the pizza oven stand for safe keeping.
NEVER close the oven door completely when a fire is burning in the oven. Among other risks,
closing the door fully will cut off oxygen to the fire, and can cause the fire to erupt suddenly
when the door is removed, increasing the possibility of injury.
Water:
Water can damage the inside of your oven. You must ensure that no water enters the oven
chamber, either through the oven door opening, or through the chimney.
Always place the provided metal door in the oven opening when not in use to stop
water from entering through the opening into the oven chamber.
Do not install the oven at a backward-leaning angle, where water could enter the oven and
pool, causing damage.
Do not ice or wet-mop the oven floor.
Water is not required to clean the cooking floor. The oven operates at very high
temperatures. The high heat act as an automatic “self-cleaning” mode, burning off all
spilled or stuck-on foods. If stuck-on food is a problem during cooking, you can remove it
with a brass oven brush. As a preventative measure, non-dough based foods should always be
placed on appropriate cookware before being placed in the oven.
If possible use a snug fitting cover when not in use. Visit www.woodpelletpizzaoven.com
to learn more about covers.
Soot:
Over time, the top of the opening to your oven will darken with soot. While your Bella’s vent
and chimney system do an excellent job of drawing smoke out of the oven chamber, soot is an
unavoidable part of any wood oven. You can occasionally clean the oven opening with soap and
water (with the door firmly in place,) or you can allow the opening to naturally become black.
