• Do NOT move unit when attached to smoker.
• Wood chip tube MUST be in place when cold smoker is in use.
• Wood chips must be used in order to produce smoke and create the smoke fl avor. See “Wood Smoking
Guide for Meats” section in this manual.
• Do not open cold smoker door unless necessary. Opening chip tube cap causes smoke to escape and
may cause wood to fl are up. Closing the cap will re-stabilize the temperature and stop fl are up.
• Do not leave old wood ashes in the chip tube screen or ash tray. Once ashes are cold, empty ash tray.
Tray should be cleaned out prior to and after each use to prevent ash buildup.
• This is a smoker accessory. There will be a lot of smoke produced when using wood chips. Smoke will
escape through seams and turn the inside of unit black. This is normal. To minimize smoke loss around
smoker loading port and mount tube, adjust nut on mount hook to further tighten seal against body.
• Opening unit during smoking process may extend smoking time due to heat loss.
•
When used with a smoker for cooking purposes, outside temperatures cooler than 65°F (18°C) and/or al-
titudes above 3,500 feet (1067m), may require additional cooking time. To ensure that meat is completely
cooked use a meat thermometer to test internal temperature.
IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT USING COLD SMOKER
Preseason smoker prior to fi rst use with cold smoker. Run unit for 1 hour with half load of wood chips.
Shut down and allow to cool. Smoke will appear during this time, this is normal.
