Smoke leaking heavily from lid edges and around chimney base.

Safety first: Use heat‑resistant gloves when checking seals on a warm grill.

• Step 1 – Inspect lid fit: Close the lid and look for visible gaps. Adjust hinges if possible to improve alignment.
• Step 2 – Check gasket: If your ASMOKE model uses a lid gasket, inspect for cracks or missing sections. Replace with a high‑temperature lid gasket kit if worn.
• Step 3 – Tighten chimney: Ensure the chimney and cap are securely fastened and not loose.
• Step 4 – Evaluate warping: If the lid or body is significantly warped, contact ASMOKE support; replacement parts may be required.
