SIDEkick SMOKER
12
VEDLIKEHOLD
Prepare smoker for use
1. Ensure your side burner is in good working order (refer to gas BBQ owners manual) and the automatic ignition
is working properly.
2. In some cases the steel grate that is positioned over your side burner must be removed to ensure proper
fit. The side burner lid must be removed to gain the necessary clearance required (refer to gas BBQ owners
manual).
3. The center of the Sidekick Smoker must be positioned directly over the center of your side burner. Measure
from the center of your side burner and ensure you have 13 cm clear to the rear and 13 cm clear to the front of
the side burner.
4. Now measure from the center of the side burner and ensure you have 16 cm clear from right side and 16 cm
clear to the left side.
5. Place the Sidekick Smoker over the side burner of your gas BBQ. Measure the distance from the top of your
side burner to the bottom of the Sidekick Smoker. Ensure there is a minimum of 5 cm from the top of the side
burner to the bottom of the Sidekick Smoker.
6. Ensure the Sidekick Smoker is level with the 4 magnetic legs making firm contact with the steel portion of
the side shelf. Remove the Sidekick Smoker and lay it on its back on a smooth non abrasive surface. Tighten
the adjustable legs using an adjustable wrench or pliers. Reposition the Sidekick Smoker over the side burner
and again ensure it is level and there is a minimum of 5 cm between the bottom of the side burner and the
Sidekick Smoker. Return the shelves, water tray and smoking tray to the Sidekick Smoker.
7. With the door of the Sidekick Smoker open, light the side burner. Once the burner is lit, close the door and
turn the latch to the locked position.
8. Allow the Sidekick Smoker to heat for approximately 15 minutes. This initial heating period is designed to burn
off any dirt or grease accumulated during manufacturing. After the initial heating period is complete, turn of
the side burner and allow the Sidekick Smoker to completely cool.
You are now ready to use your Sidekick Smoker!
Ensure the Sidekick Smoker is clear of any combustible material.
Ensure the Sidekick Smoker is away from any open windows or doors to prevent
smoke from entering your home.
Position the gas BBQ so the Sidekick Smoker is protected from the wind.
Read all safety warnings and use and care instructions
carefully before operating the Sidekick Smoker!
BEFORE USE:
“Seasoning” the Sidekick Smoker should be done before the first time you use it. Apply a thin coat of cooking oil, any kind will do, to
the inside including the grids. Turn on to medium heat and open the vents so they are 2/3 open. Leave on for 1 hour. You should not
have to “season” your Sidekick Smoker again.
To protect your Sidekick Smoker from rust, cover the unit when not in use. Always ensure the Sidekick Smoker has adequately
cooled before covering.
CLEANING
To clean the grids wait until they are cool to the touch, than wipe with paper towels to remove excess build-up. To further clean them
place warm soapy water and gently wash. Do not place in dishwasher or oven.
After each use when the trays are cool to the touch remove them and clean out the ashes and water tray. Always ensure that ashes
are properly extinguished!
