Starting Up Your Smoker
The Four Phases of Cooking
Your Profile Smart Indoor Smoker will transition through different phases of cooking. The current
cooking phase will be shown at the top of the display.
1. PREHEATING
The smoker is warming up in preparation for smoking.
2. SMOKING*
The smoker is currently smoking the food.
3. COOKING
The smoker is no longer smoking but is continuing to cook the food.
4. KEEPING WARM**
The smoker is gently heating the food to keep it warm until you're ready to eat.
* If smoke level is set to "—", the Smoking phase will be skipped.
** If Auto Warm is disabled, the Keeping Warm phase will be skipped.
Starting Your Smoker
Once all the desired cook settings have been
selected, start the smoker by pressing the
[Start] button. The words "ADD WATER" will
be displayed. Push the dial to confirm that the
waste bin has been filled with clean water. The
text "+ PELLETS" will be displayed. Push the dial
to confirm that the hopper has been filled with
pellets.
The smoker will then begin preheating. The
word "PREHEATING" will start to scroll across
the display. In addition, the Progress Ring around
the dial will illuminate yellow light gradually from
bottom to top of the ring, indicating the progress of the Preheating phase.
NOTE: During the Preheating phase, the smoke chamber may not begin to heat immediately. The Active
Smoke Filtering system at the rear of the appliance must be heated before the appliance can begin
smoking or cooking.
Option to Skip Preheat
It is generally recommended to wait until the Preheating phase is completed before placing food in the
smoker. However, it is possible to start the cook timer immediately by pressing and holding the [Start]
button for 3 seconds. Skipping preheat may reduce the resulting smoke flavor developed on the food.
NOTE: The appliance will continue to Preheat in background, but the appliance will automatically
transition to the Smoking phase when Preheating is complete. Smoke will not be generated until the
Active Smoke Filtering system has been heated properly.
