PLACE THE SMOKER OUTDOORS ON A HARD, LEVEL, NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE AWAY FROM ROOF OVERHANG OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL.
NEVER USE ON WOODEN OR OTHER SURFACES THAT COULD BURN. PLACE THE SMOKER AWAY FROM OPEN WIN DOWS OR DOORS TO PREVENT SMOKE
FROM ENTERING YOUR HOUSE. IN WINDY WEATHER, PLACE THE SMOKER IN AN OUTDOOR AREA THAT IS PRO TECT ED FROM THE WIND.
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SMOKER.
Prior to first use, cure your smoker to minimize damage to the exterior finish as well as rid the smoker of paint odor that can impart
unnatural flavors to the first meal prepared. Cure your smoker periodically throughout the year to protect against rust.
1. Remove water pan from smoker and leave out during curing process. Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the smoker and cooking
grill with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray. Do not coat charcoal pan.
2. Follow instructions carefully in the "Smoking" section of this owner's manual to light charcoal in charcoal pan.
WARNING: Charcoal lighting fluid must be allowed to completely burn off prior to closing dome lid (approximately 20 minutes).
Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal lighting fluid in smoker and may result in a flash-fire or explosion
when lid is opened.
3. With coals burning strong in charcoal pan, close dome lid.
NOTE: Do not use flavoring wood while curing your smoker.
4. Allow temperature to reach the "Ideal" range on the heat indicator. Maintain this temperature for two hours, then allow smoker to
cool completely. It is important that the exterior of the smoker is not scraped or rubbed during the curing process.
IMPORTANT: To protect your smoker from excessive rust, the unit must be cured periodically and covered at all times when not in
use. A smoker cover may be ordered directly from Brinkmann by calling
1-800-468-5252.
CAUTION: Before each use, check handles and support brackets to make sure they are securely fastened.
1. Remove dome lid and smoker body from base pan.
2. Always use high quality charcoal. If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer's warnings and instructions
regarding the use of their product. Carefully place 4.5 to 6.8 kg (10 to 15 lb.) of hot coals in the charcoal pan. Proceed to Step 5.
If using charcoal lighting fluid, follow all manufacturer's warnings and instructions regarding the use of their product. Use charcoal
lighting fluid approved for lighting charcoal ONLY. Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Place 4.5 to 6.8
kg (10 to 15 lb.) of high quality charcoal in charcoal pan.
3. Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid and wait 2 to 3 minutes for fluid to soak in. Store charcoal lighting fluid safely away from
smoker.
4. Carefully light the charcoal and allow to burn until covered with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes) prior to placing dome lid
and smoker body on base pan. This will allow charcoal lighting fluid to burn off.
WARNING: Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal lighting fluid in smoker and may result in a flash-fire or explosion
when door is opened or dome lid is removed.
5. Refer to "Flavouring Wood" section of this manual for the recommended amount of flavouring wood. Use long cooking tongs to
carefully place flavouring wood on top of hot charcoal.
