Outdoor temperature is below 65°C / 18°F, so the unit may take extended heating time.
Using an extension cord may reduce the power supply to the unit. Plug the appliance
directly into power source or ensure maximum length extension cord is 7.6 meters / 25 feet,
minimum gauge 12/3.
There is too much food in the cabinet. Place food on the cooking grids, leaving room
between each item to allow smoke and moisture to circulate evenly.
Ensure door is closed, seal is not damaged, and the door latch is secure.
Check the water pan to ensure it is sitting properly on the support brackets. See Assembly
Instructions for further instruction.
