16. CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
•
STANDARD OUTLET
This appliance requires 230 volt, 50hz, 1650w, 7.2 amp service. It must
be a 3-prong grounded plug. Ensure grounded end is not broken off
before use.
GFCI OUTLETS
•
This appliance will work on most GFCI outlets, with a recommended
size of 15 or 20 amp service. If your GFCI outlet is highly sensitive to
power surges, it will likely trip during the start-up phase of operation.
During the start-up phase, the element draws 200-700 watts of
electricity which can be too much power for a GFCI outlet to handle.
Each time it trips, it increases in sensitivity. If the GFCI keeps tripping,
replace the outlet or change to a non-GFCI outlet.
IMPORTANT: Disconnect unit from power source when not in use.
With today's lifestyle of striving to eat healthy and nutritious foods, a factor to consider is the importance of reducing fat intake.
One of the best ways to cut down on fats in your diet is to use a savory method of cooking like smoking. As this electric smoker
uses wood chips for smoking, the natural wood flavor is infused into the meats, reducing the need for high sugar-based sauces.
SMOKER ENVIRONMENT
1. WHERE TO SET-UP THE SMOKER
With all outdoor appliances, outside weather conditions play a big part in the performance of your smoker and the cooking
time needed to perfect your meals. All Pit Boss units should keep a minimum clearance of 305mm (12 inches) from combustible
constructions, and this clearance must be maintained while the smoker is operational. This appliance must not be placed under
overhead combustible ceiling or overhang. Keep your smoker in an area clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
2. COLD WEATHER COOKING
As it becomes cooler outside, that does not mean that smoking season is over! The crisp cool air and heavenly aroma of
smoked foods will help cure your winter blues. Follow these suggestions on how to enjoy your smoker throughout the cooler
months:
•
If smoking at low temperatures fails, increase the temperature slightly to achieve the same results.
•
Organize – Get everything you require ready in the kitchen before you head outdoors. During the winter, move your
smoker to an area that is out of the wind and direct cold. Check local bylaws regarding the proximity of your smoker
in relation to your home and/or other structures. Put everything you need on a tray, bundle up tight, and get it done!
•
To help keep track of the outside temperature, place an outdoor thermometer close to your cooking area. Keep a log
