Shutdown Procedure
Important!
If oven is to be left unattended with the door open, the following steps
should be taken:
• ON/OFF control must be in the OFF position.
• Carefully remove the wood box from the oven and douse the contents
with water. Remove any wood remaining on the burner. Rake it on to
the foil bottom. Remove the foil from the oven immediately.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT
IN A FIRE HAZARD!
Cleanup
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE OVEN FROM ITS ELECTRICAL
SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING.
Your Cookshack smoker must be kept clean. Loose grease and scale should
be removed regularly to prevent buildup, which may cause strong fumes. It
is desirable to allow seasoned coating, such as that found on a well-
seasoned cast iron skillet, to remain on the walls. For this reason, we do not
recommend attempting to restore the oven wall to a “like new” state after
each cooking. The use of detergent, chemical cleaners or oven cleaners is
not advised.
“You want the walls to turn black like an old skillet. I wipe out my smoker
with paper towels, and scrape “chunks” off with a scraper.” Stuart Powell,
Cookshack CEO
IMPORTANT: Caustic oven cleaners may damage heating element
and grills. Use of oven cleaners or other caustic cleaners will void the
warranty on the heating element and grills.
