functionality of alarms, timers and other useful notifications.
The initial connection between your device and the grill uses BLUETOOTH® wireless technology.
Please be certain Bluetooth® is enabled on your device, but do not attempt to add the grill from
the device settings. Also, turn off/disable Wi-Fi or disconnect from your home Wi-Fi network
during this initial set-up. Turn on the grill, if not already.

grill and prompt for confirmation. Once connected, you may enter a nickname for the grill.
We recommend taking a screenshot of this page as it includes the grill's product ID number,
which may be needed for tech support. The Bluetooth® icon will be displayed at the top of the
controller screen while connected.
Now you are ready to connect to your home network. We recommend always using a Wi-Fi
connection since it provides better communication between your device and the grill. During
this step, you may be prompted to enable Wi-Fi. Select your network and enter the password.
Now the Wi-Fi icon will be displayed at the top of the of the controller screen. Once connection
is established, you can disable Bluetooth® if you prefer. The controller will always look for the
Wi-Fi connection every time it is turned on.
You are now ready to use the Vida™ by PADERNO app to control your grill! Keep in mind that
you cannot ignite, or start, your grill from the app. The app allows remote viewing and setting
of cooking temperature, meat probe temperature, and alarms. During operation, various
notifications will be sent to your phone or tablet to keep you informed.
Note: The Wi-Fi connection is not direct between the device and the grill. Sometimes, due
to network activity, there may be a delay or variance between what the controller and device
