BREAKING IN THE GRILL
We suggest turning the grill to 350F for ½ hour
before cooking on the grill for the first time. This
will burn off any manufacturing oils and cure the
paint. Make sure to follow the instructions for
filling the auger tube before breaking in the grill.
Always start the grill with the lid open. The lid
must be closed after the start cycle.
COOKING
Once the auger tube has been properly filled you
can begin cooking by selecting any of the cooking
temperatures. The grill has 13 cook settings. Low
Smoke, High Smoke, 175, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300,
325, 350, 375, 400, and High. By selecting any of
these the grill will go into the Startup mode. The
digital readout will display "START" for 8 minutes
during the startup cycle. After the 8 minutes
the digital readout will display the internal
temperature of the grill. The dial can be changed
at any time during the startup cycle or the cook
cycle between any of the 13 cook settings.
WARNING
Do not over-fire the grill by over feeding pellets
into the burner prior to startup. If flame is
inadvertently extinguished never restart the grill
without first cleaning out the burner. Improper
use can cause an uncontrolled fire.
SHUTDOWN
When you are done cooking the dial must be turned
to the Shutdown setting. The digital readout will
display "SDOWN". In this setting the fan will
remain on for 10 minutes to finish burning any
pellets in the burner and cool the grill down. After
10 minutes the digital readout and auger will turn
off. At this point the main power switch should be
switched to off. Before grill can be used, the power
switch must be turned off and back on.
BYPASS MODE
The bypass may be used if there is a power failure,
or the grill is accidentally turned off, or anytime
you need to restart the grill and it is still hot.
The bypass mode should only be used if the grill
has been off less than 3-4 minutes. This method
is used to bypass the normal startup mode and
get the grill cooking again quickly. The burner
must still be hot enough to ignite new pellets or
this method will not work. In order to initiate the
bypass mode you must first select the cook setting
you want. At this point the digital readout will
display "START". Simply press the bypass button in
and hold it for 3 seconds. The digital readout will
display "BPASS". Release the button and the grill
will go into the cook mode and the digital readout
will display the grill temperature. If the grill fails
to ignite using the bypass mode then restart the
grill using the normal startup procedures.
MEAT PROBE
This grill has a built in meat probe to measure the
temperature of the food as it is being cooked. To
use this probe insert the wire through the stainless
flap on the side of the firebox. Insert the probe into
the food. Plug the connector into the receptacle on
the front of the control panel. When you press the
probe temp button on the front of the controller the
digital readout will display the food temperature.
