to remove stickers.
• Wash cooking grates with warm soapy water, rinse and dry throughly.
B e f o re e a c h u s e o f s m o k e r :
• Use smoker only on a firm and level surface to prevent tipping over. DO NOT
move appliance across uneven surfaces.
• To prevent household circuit breakers from tripping, keep electric controller
dry and do not use other electrical products on the same circuit.

S a f e t y T i p s
•
If you have an appliance problem see the "Troubleshooting Section".
•
Clean smoker often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle brush is used to clean any of
the smoker cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to
cooking. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while smoker is hot.
•
DO NOT open the smoker door during operation, unless necessary. Opening the door will
allow heat to escape, and slow the cooking time.
•
DO NOT USE CHARCOAL. A charcoal fire will result and the smoker is not designed
for charcoal. The fire will create an unsafe condition and damage the smoker. Wood chips
must be used to create a smoked flavor.
A p a r t m e n t D w e l l e r s :
•
Check with management to learn the requirements and fire codes for using an electric smoker
in your apartment complex. Use only as allowed.
C l e a n i n g y o u r s m o k e r :

Excess build up of burned grease and food particles will reduce the smokers cooking perfor-
mance. To obtain optimum performance:
•
Clean the interior and exterior at least once a season, more often with heavy use.
•

•
Using a mild detergent or hot soapy water, moderately scrub interior surfaces of the smoker
with a plastic or bristle brush.
•
Clean the smoker with a non-abrasive cleaner
•
Clean cooking grates, water pan, meat probe, and drip pan regularly with warm soapy water
or a baking soda and water solution. Use non-abrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.
If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the smoker cooking surfaces, ensure no loose
bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to cooking. It is not recommended to clean cooking
surfaces while smoker is hot.
•
Clean the surface of the thermostats after each use. There are two thermostats located on the
rear inside wall of the smoker.
•
If your smoker is equipped with a window, do not use abrasive cleaners on the window. Use a
cleaner approved for use on ceramic glass cooktops. Window is tempered and will not break
under normal use.
•
For smoker box, clean frequently to remove ash build up, residue and dust.
•
Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in a metal foil wrapper, soaking them in water
overnight and discarding in a non-combustible container.
•
The door seal MUST be cleaned with a damp cloth after each use in order to keep the seal in
proper working condition.
