LET’S GET STARTED!
• This is a slow smoker… allow suffi cient time for cooking. Smoker is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
• “Pre-season” smoker prior to fi rst use. See page 12.
• Pre-heat smoker for 30 to 45 minutes at max temperature before loading food.
• DO NOT cover racks with aluminum foil as this will not allow heat to circulate properly.
• Do not overload smoker with food. Extra large amounts of food may trap heat, extend cooking
time and cause uneven cooking. Leave space between food on racks and smoker sides to
ensure proper heat circulation. If utilizing cooking pans, place pans on center of rack to ensure
even cooking. Never use glass, plastic or ceramic cookware in unit. Please see manual for
more detail.
• Close air damper on top of unit to retain moisture and heat. If cooking foods such as fi sh or
jerky, open air damper to release moisture.
• Store smoker in a dry area after use.
• Extreme cold temperatures may extend cooking times.
• CLEAN AFTER EVERY USE. This will extend the life of your smoker and prevent mold
and mildew.
ENJOY!
For rack supports, racks, water bowl and drip pan use a mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
For wood chip tray and wood chip loader, clean frequently to remove ash build up, residue and
dust.
Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a
non-combustible container.
For the interior, glass in door, 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 with a damp cloth after each
use to keep seal in proper working condition.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE UNIT IS COOL
TO THE TOUCH BEFORE CLEANING AND STORING.

HOW TO USE CONTROL PANEL & REMOTE CONTROL
CAUTION

15
• Maximum temperature setting is 275°F (135°C).
• Do NOT move unit across uneven surfaces.
• Rear handle is NOT for lifting.
• Wood chip loader and wood chip tray MUST be in place when using smoker. This minimizes the
chance of wood fl are ups.
• Wood chips must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke fl avor.
• Check grease tray 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 fl are up. Closing the door will re-stabilize the temperature and stop fl are up.
• Do not leave old wood ashes in the wood chip 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.
• Opening smoker door during cooking process may extend cooking
time due to heat loss.
• When outside temperature is cooler than 65°F (18°C) and/or altitude
is above 3,500 feet (1067m), additional cooking time may be required. To insure that meat is
completely cooked use a meat thermometer to test internal temperature.
For rack supports, racks, water bowl and drip pan use a mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
For wood chip tray and wood chip loader, clean frequently to remove ash build up, residue and dust.
Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a
non-combustible container.
For the interior, glass in door, 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 with a damp cloth 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.
HOW TO CLEAN SMOKER
• To adjust door latch, loosen hex nut on door latch. Turn hook clockwise to tighten as shown. Secure
hex nut fi rmly against door latch. (see diagram)
