Adding Water; Match Lighting Prodedure; Damper Adjustments - Pit Boss PBV2G1 Mode D'emploi

Operating Instructions
To add water to the smoker, open the smoker door and slowly pour water from a cup or pitcher into the
water pan. Fill the water pan to 3/4 full. Do not overfill.
LP GAS LIGHTING PROCEDURE (IGNITOR)
1. Check all connections for leaks.
2. Open smoker doors.
3. Check for any blockage to the venturi tube or burner. Remove any foreign objects or matter.
4. Be sure the burner control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
5. Open the LP cylinder valve 1 1/2 turn by turning knob counter clockwise.
6. To light unit, push in and turn the burner control knob counter clockwise to the "HIGH" setting.
7. Immediately push the igniter button to click it several times (you should see a small spark
jumping from the end of the electrode rod to the side of the burner) until burner is lit.
If the burner does not light within 3 to 5 seconds, turn the burner control knob "OFF" and wait five
minutes before repeating the steps again. If burner still fails to light, try match lighting the smoker
using the instructions noted below.
8. Once the burner is lit, then close the door to allow heat to accumulate. The damper can then be
adjusted to the desired setting to allow proper air flow and combustion. Damper adjustment tips
are listed on the next page.
MATCH LIGHTING PROCEDURE
1. To match light the burner, repeat steps 1 through 5 of the lighting procedure above and
continue with the following steps.
2. Remove the wood chip trays from the smoker. Strike a paper match and place it into the burn
chamber, next to the burner.
3. Quickly turn the control knob to the light high setting. If the burner does not light within 4 or
5 seconds, turn the control knob off, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the process.
4. If the burner flame is accidentally extinguished, turn the control knob off, wait 5 minutes, and
repeat the lighting procedure.
Temperature maintenance is best controlled by different damper adjustments. The key to
effective smoking is to watch your heat indicator on the door and adjust the dampers accordingly.
For better performance, rotate the smoker to where the front of the cabinet is facing the wind.
This allows the adjustment of the dampers to be more effective and accurate. Opening the
dampers helps to exhaust both the heat and smoke. The dampers should never be fully closed.
