necessary,
Heat Gauge:
This heat gauge is accurate to +/- 10% of the actual temperature. We suggest verifying this with your
oven. If you require more precise temperature control, the use of a meat thermometer is recommended.
NOTE: Smoke may escape from areas other than the smokestack.
This should not affect cooking.
NEVER EXCEED 700°F BECAUSE THIS WILL DAMAGE THE FINISH AND CONTRIBUTE TO RUST.
TOUCH-UP. THIS UNIT IS NOT WARRANTED AGAINST RUST.
