PRE-SEASON INSTRUCTIONS Pre-seasoning will rid your smoker of chemicals and oils from the manufacturing process. Even though this is necessary before you use your smoker for the fi rst time, you should pre-season or cure the smoker periodically to prevent excessive rust. 1. Set temperature to 350ºF and run the smoker for 3 hours. Note: Water tray should be empty. To set temperature and time: • Press the temperature button. Use the up and down arrows to set the temperature to 350ºF. • Press the temperature button once more. The temperature is now set. • Press the time button. Use the up and down arrows to set the cook time for 3 hours. • Press the time button again. Set the minutes to 00. • Press the time button once more. The cook time is now set. 2. Once pre-seasoning is complete, press the on/off button. • Do not unplug the smoker yet. • The unit is off , but the fan will continue to run for 5 minutes. This will prevent any burn back in the auger. • Once the fan has turned off , unplug smoker. If you are not ready to cook after pre-seasoning, follow the Cleaning and Storing Instructions.
