ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE OVEN FROM ITS ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING.
1. Disconnect oven from power supply.
2. Allow the oven to cool.
3. Remove the grills and racks; Scrape and wash with soap and water
(the racks and grills can go into the dishwasher, however do not
use any caustic oven cleaners as they will destroy the plating on the
grills).
4. Remove wood and ash remnants by discarding the aluminum foil
covering (douse wood with water before discarding).
5. Remove all grease from interior of oven, using paper towel or
cloths (once again, do not use caustic cleaners on the inside of
smoker as this will damage the heating element, but if you use
oven cleaners, make sure liquid does not come into contact with
the heating element).
6. Empty or remove drippings from drip pan.

scraper.

o Bottom of oven must be kept clean. Change foil in bottom of
oven and from top of wood box after each cooking and
remove all excess grease from interior of oven. Be sure that
drain hole is open at all times. If drain becomes plugged, oven
bottom can fill with grease and a fire hazard may occur.
Follow these maintenance procedures:
1. Periodically check electrical plug and wire for any wear or damage.
2. Twice annually put two drops of lightweight oil on the hinge pins
to prevent binding.
