  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

FCC Warning
Warning: Changes or modifications to this smoker that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance and could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more  of the following measures:

  1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

PRE-SEASONING
PRE-SEASON SMOKER PRIOR TO FIRST USE. Some smoke may appear during this time, this is normal.

  1. Make sure the water pan is in place WITHOUT WATER.
  2.  Set temperature to 275°F (135°C) and run smoker for 3 hours.
  3. During the last 45 minutes, add ½ cup of wood chips in the wood chip loader and unload wood chips into the wood chip tray to complete pre-seasoning. This amount is equal to the contents of a filled wood chip loader.
  4. Shut down and allow it to cool.

LOADING FOOD INTO SMOKER

  • Pre-heat smoker for 30 to 45 minutes at desired cooking temperature before loading food.
  • DO NOT cover racks with aluminum foil as this will not allow heat to circulate properly.
  • Do not overload smokers 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 the center of the rack to ensure even cooking.
  • Do not open the smoker door unless necessary. Opening the smoker door causes heat to escape, may extend cooking time, and may cause wood chips to flare up. Closing the door will re-stabilize the temperature and stop flare-ups.
  • 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 the door, the door latch can be adjusted to further tighten the door seal against the body.
  • To adjust the door latch, loosen the hex nut on the door latch. Turn hook clockwise to tighten as shown. Secure hex nut firmly against the door latch (see diagram).
  • Check grease tray often during cooking. Empty the grease tray before it gets full. The grease tray may need to be emptied periodically during cooking.

WOOD CHIP LOADER

  • Wood chip loader and wood chip tray MUST be in place when using a smoker. This minimizes the chance of wood flare-ups.
  • Wood chips must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke flavor.
  • Before starting the smoker, place ½ cup of wood chips in the chip loader. Never use more than ½ cup of wood chips at a time. Never use wood chunks or wood pellets.
  • Insert wood chip loader into a smoker. Wood chips should be level with the top rim of the wood chip loader.
  • Turn the handle clockwise in direction of the arrow mark on the smoker to unload wood chips. Wood chips will drop into the wood chip tray. Turn the handle counterclockwise to an upright position and leave the wood chip loader in place.
  • If wood chips do not smoke on a low setting, increase the temperature to 275°. After 8 to 10 minutes, or when wood chips begin to smolder, reduce temperature to desired low setting.
  • You may use dry or pre-soaked wood chips in your smoker. Dry chips will burn faster and produce more intense smoke. Chips pre-soaked in water (for approximately 30 minutes) will burn slower and produce less intense smoke.
  • Check the wood chip tray periodically to see if the wood has burned down. Add more chips as needed.
  • Do not leave old ashes in the wood chip tray. Once ashes are cold, empty tray. The tray should be cleaned out prior to, and after each use to prevent ash buildup.

ADDING MORE WOOD DURING THE SMOKING PROCESS:
NOTE: Never add more than ½ cup (1 filled chip loader) at a time. Additional chips should not be added until any previously added chips have ceased generating smoke.

  • Pull wood chip loader from the smoker.
  • Place wood chips in a wood chip loader and insert them into a smoker.
  •  Turn the handle clockwise in direction of the arrow mark on the smoker to unload wood chips. Wood chips will drop into the wood chip tray.
  • The temperature may spike briefly after wood chips are added. It will stabilize after a short time. Do not adjust the temperature settings.

CAUTION

  •  Keep smoker door closed when adding wood chips. A flare-up may occur when the door is opened. If wood chips flare up, immediately close the door and vent, wait for wood chips to burn down, then the open door again. Do not spray with water.
  • Wood chip loader will be HOT even if a handle is not.
  • Never use wood chunks or wood pellets

WATER BOWL

  • Wait until the smoker reaches the desired temperature.
  • Fill the water bowl to fill the line with water or liquids like an apple or pineapple juice.
  • You may also add slices of fruit, onions, or fresh dried herbs into the water to blend different subtle flavors into your smoked food.
    Tip: For chicken or other foods high in moisture, little or no liquid is needed.

CLEANING AND STORAGE

ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE SMOKER IS COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE CLEANING AND STORING.

  • Be sure to clean the smoker after each use. This will extend the life of your smoker and prevent mold and mildew.
  • 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 them in a noncombustible container.
  • For the interior, glass indoor (if featured), and exterior of the smoker, simply wipe down with a damp cloth. Do not use a cleaning agent. Make sure to dry thoroughly.
  • After cleaning, store the smoker in a covered and dry area.
  • Check your smoker periodically to avoid possible rust and corrosion due to moisture buildup.
