Troubleshooting

It's safe to say that on any given day at least one member of our team is out using their Uuni – whether trying out recipes or, well, just because
we love the food Uuni cooks. Between us, we've racked up thousands of hours of cooking and we think we know how to get the best from
Uuni 3. We're always happy to give advice and tips: Remember to check out our online resources and to contact us at support@uuni.net if you
have any questions.
I can't light my Uuni 3
My Uuni 3 is too hot

Refer to the steps shown in the Burner quick start guide (page 14). The easiest way to light pellets is using
a blow torch. Remember to remove the chimney scoop/cap before you begin and to keep the door on
throughout your cook.
100% hardwood pellets are energy dense and should light easily. If you are having difficulty with lighting
then it may be that the pellets have absorbed some moisture.
Caution: Never use your Uuni 3 in high winds.
Here are a few tips to follow if you find that your Uuni 3 is running too hot:
• Ensure that your stone baking board is flush with the front of Uuni 3.
• Reduce the amount of pellets added.
• Wind may be entering the rear of your Uuni and encouraging heat to flow through your Uuni. Rotate
your Uuni 3 180˚ before your next cook to reduce the impact of this airflow.
Top tip: If your stone baking board is too hot, try resting an Uuni Sizzler Pan on it
for 30 seconds or so to absorb some of the heat.
