Operating Tips - USSC USG350 Assembly And Operating Instructions Manual

STANDARD SHUTDOWN SEQUENCE
1. When you are ready to turn the grill off, make sure the searing station is off. The light will be off when the
searing station is off.
2. Press the "Power" button.
3. The display will go blank and the grill will enter a shutdown mode where the blower will continue to run until
it has reached a safe temperature.
NOTE: The "Cook" light will remain solid and the "Smoke" light will flash during this sequence. Shutdown sequence
can take up to 1 hr depending on the cook temperature and the outside temperature.
DO NOT TURN THE GRILL OFF BY UNPLUGGING IT. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
• When the grill is plugged in, the control board will flash through a sequence of letters and numbers before
going to a blank display screen.
• When you turn the grill "ON" the Mode in which the grill is in flashes for 15 minutes, until startup sequence is
finished.
• Grill operating temperatures are 180° F to 500° F.
• When grill is first turned "ON", the control board will go to 350°, on first ignition. If grill has been used, the
control board will go to the last setting used.
• Smoke mode is from 180° to 295°. The concentration of smoke will vary depending on the temperature
selected. You will notice a higher concentration of smoke at lower settings than when operating at higher
temperatures for smoke mode.
• Combustion blower is on constant during "Cook" Mode and does not vary in speed.
• If you turn the grill off during "Startup" Mode, everything shuts off without a shutdown sequence.
• If the flame plate is installed improperly, a burn back may occur due to the airflow restrictions at the burnpot.
• If you are in "Cook" mode and change to "Smoke" mode, the temperature will automatically go to 295°.
• If you are in "Smoke" mode and change to "Cook" mode, the temperature will automatically go to 300°.
• Temperature control doesn't begin to read and control feed rate for 15 minutes, due to the 15 minute start
up sequence.
• Make sure to unplug your grill only after it has gone through the shutdown sequence, cooled off, and is not
in use.
• DO NOT unplug your grill during use or to shorten the shutdown sequence.
SEARING STATION
• The searing station control is operable from the toggle switch only (located next to the display board). Only
turn on the searing station for the needed time of use. Make sure to turn the searing station off when not in
use. The searing station will function even if the grill is not in operation. Always unplug the grill when not in
use.
• It is not recommend using the searing station during your general cooking needs, as it can interfere with the
temperature sensor. Only use the searing station to quickly sear your food and then turn it off. The searing
station takes approximately 5 minutes to reach a searing temperature during use in the grill "cook" settings.
