Standard Use And Operating Instructions

Adjust cook temperature
Make sure the grill is always sitting level or is slightly tilted towards the drip bucket.
STANDARD STARTUP SEQUENCE
1. Fill the hopper with pellet fuel. Never leave pellets in the hopper and only use the minimum amount of
pellets needed for cooking. Be sure to close and latch the hopper lid. Only burn pellet fuel that is specifically
manufactured for use in pellet grills and cookers.
2. Open the grill lid and press the "Power" button. The three dots between the numbers on the temperature
readout will begin to flash; showing that the grill is in startup-sequence in the corresponding mode. The grill
will automatically light 5 to 8 minutes after pressing the "Power" button. Remember, start-up times may vary
based on outside ambient temperature and fuel quality). Prime your auger press the button found on the
control panel labeled "Prime." When pressed, the auger spins and feeds pellet fuel to the burn pot. Hold the
"Prime" button in for up to 1 minute to prime the auger tube with pellets.
NOTE: The startup mode will last approximately 15 minutes. Excessive smoke during startup is typical.
3. Set the control board to the desired cooking temperature using the "Cook Temp" buttons on the control
board. Temperature settings are in 5°F increments.
4. Once the grill ignites, you can hear a flowing sound slightly louder than the blower motor of the grill. At this
point, the grill produces significantly less smoke. Close the grill lid once ignition has occurred.
NOTE: Allow the grill lid to remain closed during the pre-heat and as much as possible during cook time. Feed
rates during run mode are determined by temperature readings. Each time the lid opens, the temperature goes
down, causing the auger to feed more. This can lead to potential overcooking of food.
5. Check the actual temperature compared to the set-point temperature by using the "Display" button on the
control board. The display button helps to determine when the grill has preheated to the desired cooking
temperature.
NOTE: During the startup, the grill temperature can exceed the set-point temperature. It is advisable to keep the
display in "Actual" mode to check the temperature readings and avoid overcooking or burning. It is easy to tell if
the grill is still in startup by the "Cook" or "Smoke" light blinking. The grills settings will determine which light blinks.
6. Once the 15 minute startup time is met, and the grill has reached its set-point temperature, the grill is ready
to have food added.
NOTE: As previously mentioned, keep the lid closed as much as possible to maintain constant cooking temperature.
The temperature may fluctuate slightly.
NOTICE !! During operation, the technology in this grill's programming learns the fuel rate needed to sustain the
selected cooking temperature. Therefore, start-up times may vary based on outside ambient temperature and
fuel quality or type (flavored or not). Using the "Prime" button may help facilitate a quicker start-up time.
STANDARD SHUTDOWN SEQUENCE
1. To turn the grill off.
2. Press the power button.
3. The word "Cool" will show on the display, and the grill will enter a shutdown mode. The blower will continue
to run until it has reached a safe temperature.
NOTE: The "Cook" light will stay solid, and the "Smoke" light will flash during the shutdown sequence. Shutdown
sequence can take up to 1 hour depending on the cooking temperature and the outside temperature.
DO NOT TURN THE GRILL OFF BY UNPLUGGING IT. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
