How do I set up my Ooni Karu 2 (formerly Karu 12G) with the gas burner?
December 9 2024 12:00amThe Ooni Karu 2 is only compatible with the Ooni Karu 2 Gas Burner. It cannot be used with the Ooni 3 Gas Burner.
Always ensure your oven is completely cool before setting up.
How to connect:
- Begin by removing the draft defender plate from the rear of the oven.
- Insert the gas burner into the back of the oven and securely fasten it with the bolts.
- Connect your regulator to your gas tank and ensure the gas flow is open.
- Prior to firing up, take the following steps:
- Remove the solid fuel tray, if present
- Open the oven door
- Remove the rear fuel hatch door
- Ensure the chimney is fixed to the oven, with chimney cap removed and baffle fully open
- Slowly turn the gas burner control dial for approximately 5 seconds until you hear a 'click' sound.
- Once ignited, continue to hold the dial in for an additional 5 seconds before releasing it. If the gas burner fails to ignite, turn the dial back to the "off" position and wait for 5 minutes before attempting again.
- Replace the rear hatch and securely close the oven door.
