FIRE HAZARD, BURN HAZARD! FLAMES, SPARKS AND LIT EMBERS CAN EXIT ANY
OPENING ON THE PIT CAUSING FIRE! Keep the pit located a safe distance away from flammable
objects including buildings, walls, solvents, cars, fuel, wood piles, and furniture, and use caution when
opening the pit. An ember that has fallen or is ejected from the pit can be blown into a garage or other
structure, debris field, woods, or grass field and can cause fire. Have a fire extinguisher and water
supply available near the pit.
FIRE HAZARD: If the pit is used on a combustible surface such as a wooden deck, place the pit on a
non-flammable pad intended for this purpose.
EXPLOSION HAZARD: PIT FIRES CAN OCCUR WHEN LIQUIDS ARE SPILLED OR WHEN
SURFACES INSIDE THE PIT REACH THE IGNITION TEMPERATURES OF FATS! Never pour or
throw water directly onto a fat fire. Reduce the temperature by cooling the fire in the firebox with a
water spray. Close the cooking chamber door while the firebox is steaming to smother the fire. Repeat
this procedure as necessary until the pit is under control.
FIRE HAZARD: Pit fires can be largely avoided if the pit is kept clean and free from fat buildup during
or between cooks. Change drip trays during a cook to keep flammable fats to a minimum. Cook at
temperatures low enough to avoid ignition.
EXPLOSION HAZARD: SMOKER CAN COMBUST WHEN OXYGEN IS INTRODUCED AND
PRODUCE SEVERE BURNS! Use caution when opening the lid or door of the pit.
WARNING: THERE ARE HOT SURFACES ON ALL PARTS OF THE PIT BEFORE, DURING
AND AFTER COOKING! Wear protective clothing when tending the pit, dumping a firebox into a
proper receptacle, attempting to extinguish a fire, or mounting any part of your Guru control system. Be
ready to call your local fire company in the case of an emergency.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD, HIGH VOLTAGE! The power supply for this product is plugged
into a 120 or 240 VAC Mains. This voltage can cause injury or death. Keep the power supply away from
water and off the ground. Never touch the power supply if it gets wet. Do not use the power supply if
visibly damaged.
FIRE HAZARD, BURN HAZARD: Even quality electronics can fail CAUSING THE FAN TO RUN
CONSTANTLY, RESULTING IN EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURES! Power draft fans can get the pit
temperature higher than natural draft. Use caution in opening the pit and determining fan placement.
Inspect the probe and fan wires for damage which can cause the fan to run constantly.
FIRE HAZARD: Even quality electronics can fail and cause the temperature to read incorrectly. Use a
redundant dial thermometer as a backup temperature sensor to verify the control’s reading of the pit
temperature.
CAUTION: There are no user serviceable parts inside the control unit. Opening or making unauthorized
modifications may cause equipment failure, creating a hazardous condition.
