¡COMENCEMOS!
• Este ahumador funciona a fuego lento... Calcule su tiempo de modo que disponga del tiempo sufi ciente para
cocinar. El ahumador SÓLO SE PUEDE USAR AL AIRE LIBRE.
• “Cure” el ahumador antes de usarlo por primera vez. Vea la página 12.
• Antes de colocar los alimentos, caliente el ahumador a temperatura máxima, por 30 a 45 minutos.
• NO cubra las rejillas con papel de aluminio, pues esto impedirá que el calor circule correctamente.
• No sobrecargue el ahumador con alimentos. Las cantidades muy grandes de alimentos pueden absorber el calor,
prolongar el tiempo de cocción y causar una cocción dispareja. Deje espacio entre los alimentos colocados en las
rejillas y los lados del ahumador para asegurar que el calor circule adecuadamente. Si utiliza ollas, colóquelas en
el centro de la rejilla para asegurar una cocción pareja. Para obtener más detalles, consulte el manual.
• Cierre el regulador ubicado al costado de la unidad para retener la humedad y el calor. Si está cocinando
alimentos como pescado o cecinas, abra el regulador para liberar la humedad.
• La lectura de temperatura en el tablero de control fl uctuará entre más o menos 10 y 15 grados a medida que el
ahumador se conecte y desconecte.
• Guarde el ahumador en un área seca después de usarlo.
• Las temperaturas extremadamente frías pueden aumentar los tiempos de cocción.
• LÍMPIELO DESPUÉS DE CADA USO. De esta forma, prolongará la vida útil de su ahumador y evitará la aparición
de moho y hongos.

• 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
