HOW TO CLEAN SMOKER
For cooking racks, water bowl and drip tray use a mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
For wood chip holder and wood chip loader, clean frequently to remove ash build up,
residue and dust.
For the interior, glass in door, light cover, meat probe, and exterior of smoker simply
wipe down with a damp cloth. Do not use a cleaning agent. Make sure to dry
thoroughly.
Door seal and inside seam that seal attaches to MUST be cleaned after each use to
keep seal in proper working condition.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED AND COOL
TO THE TOUCH BEFORE CLEANING AND STORING.
IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT USING SMOKER
• Maximum temperature setting is 275°F (135°C).
• Wood chip loader and wood chip holder MUST be in place when using smoker.
This minimizes the chance of wood flare ups.
• Wood chips must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke flavor.
See “Wood Smoking Guide for Meats” section in this manual.
• Check grease tray on back of unit often during cooking. Empty grease tray before
it gets full. Grease tray may need to be emptied periodically during cooking.
• Do not open smoker door unless necessary. Opening smoker door causes heat to
escape and may cause wood to flare up. Closing the door will re-stabilize the
temperature and stop flare up.
• Do not leave old wood ashes in the wood tray. Once ashes are cold empty tray.
Tray should be cleaned out prior to and after each use to prevent ash buildup.
• Glass in door is tempered and will not break under normal operation.
• This is a smoker. There will be a lot of smoke produced when using wood chips.
Smoke will escape through seams and turn the inside of smoker black. This is
normal. To minimize smoke loss around door, door latch can be adjusted to further
tighten door seal against body.
Loosen hex nut on door
latch. Turn hook clockwise
to tighten as shown.
Secure hex nut firmly
against door latch.
