UNDERSTANDING THE PROBES

• TEMPERATURE PROBE
Located inside the cabinet, on the rear wall along the bottom, is the temperature probe. It is a small, vertical piece of stainless
steel. The temperature probe measures the internal temperature of the unit. When the temperature is adjusted on the Control
Board, the temperature probe will read the actual temperature inside the unit and adjust to the desired temperature.
IMPORTANT: The temperature of your unit is highly affected on ambient outdoor weather, quality of pellets used,
flavor of pellets, and the quantity of food being cooked.
• MEAT PROBE
The meat probe measures the internal temperature of your meat in the smoke cabinet, similar to your indoor oven. Plug-
in the meat probe adapter to the meat probe connection port and insert the stainless steel meat probe into the thickest
portion of your meat and the temperature will be displayed on the control board. To ensure the meat probe is connected
properly to the connection port, feel and hear it snap into place.
