Important Safety Warnings
We want you to assemble and use your Charmate
Smoker & Barbecue as safely as possible.
When you see this safety alert symbol please
pay particular attention to the information
which follows it.
Read all safety warnings and instructions carefully
before assembling and operating the Smoker & Barbecue.
Warning
• Only use this Smoker & Barbecue on a hard, level, non-
combustible, stable surface. Never use on a wooden
surface or one that could burn.
• Always use a drip pan/ash guard under Smoker &
Barbecue to protect surface from heat damage and/
or discoloration and to catch ashes, embers and
drippings. Place a thin layer of water in drip pan/ash
guard to help extinguish falling ashes and embers.
A drip pan/ash guard is designed for use with the
Smoker & Barbecue for easy clean up of drippings that
can cause discoloration of surface and to catch falling
ashes and embers.
• Proper clearance of ten feet between the smoker and
any combustible material (bushes, trees, wooden
decks, wooden fences, buildings, etc.) or construction
should be maintained at all times when Smoker &
Barbecue is in use. Do not place Smoker & Barbecue
under a roof overhang or other enclosed area.
• For household use only. Do not use this Smoker &
Barbecue for other than its intended purpose.
• For outdoor use only. Do not operate Smoker &
Barbecue indoors or in an enclosed area.
• Water bowl should always be used when smoking.
Do not allow liquid in water bowl to completely
evaporate. Check water bowl every 2 hours and add
water if level is low (a sizzling should may indicate a
need for water). Follow instructions in “Adding Water
or Wood during Cooking” section of this manual.
• Always keep water in the water bowl even after food
is removed from Smoker. Water will evaporate and
grease in water bowl can catch on re.
• Do not move Smoker & Barbecue when water bowl
contains hot liquids and while it is in use.
• Do not leave Smoker & Barbecue unattended when in
use.
• Use extreme caution when adding charcoal/wood.
Follow instructions in “Adding Water or Wood during
Cooking” section of this manual.
• Do not store or use Smoker & Barbecue near gasoline
or other ammable liquids, gases or where ammable
vapors may be present.
• We do not recommend the use of lighting uid. If
you choose to use charcoal lighting uid, only use
lighting uid approved for lighting charcoal. Carefully
read instructions on the charcoal lighting uid and
charcoal prior to use.
• Do not use self-starting charcoal. Use only high grade
plain charcoal or charcoal/wood mixture.
• Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting
charcoal. Use of any of these or similar products can
cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily
injury.
• Never add charcoal lighting uid to hot or even warm
charcoal.
• During grilling, grease from meat may drip into
the charcoal and cause a grease re. If this should
happen, replace lid to suocate the ame. Do not use
water to extinguish grease res.
• Use caution since ames can are-up when fresh air
suddenly comes in contact with re. When opening
the lid, keep hands, face and body safe from hot
steam and ame are-ups. Remove the lid by tilting it
toward you to allow heat and steam to escape away
from your face.
• Use caution when assembling and operating your
Smoker & Barbecue to avoid scrapes or cuts from
sharp edges of metal parts.
• Check support brackets to make sure they are secure
and notches are upright before each use.
