This START–UP procedure is used to verify that your Southbend SB-5-ES or SB-10-ES Smoker has
been installed correctly and will perform as intended when put into use. This INITIAL START–UP
procedure should be carried out by your electrician, licensed installer or a Southbend approved
service agency. Please read completely through all of this Manual Control START–UP procedure
before beginning.
This procedure includes all optional manual features for the SB-5-ES and SB-10-ES. If your unit does
not include one of these features you can skip over that step in the START–UP procedure.
