COOKING SYSTEM
A
WEBER PORCELAIN ENAMEL Lid
Built to outlast the competition, SEARWOOD's shine
goes far beyond looks. The exclusive WEBER Porcelain-
Enameled finish withstands the elements and helps
prevent rusting and cracking over time.
B
Large Hopper
The large capacity hopper holds an entire 20 pound bag of
pellets - the perfect size for long duration smoking.
C
Responsive Engine
Engineered with WEBER's RAPID REACT PID, this DC
powered engine was built to heat hotter and faster
than most pellet grills in order to reach a 180º-600°F
(82º-315°C) temperature range. This gives you the
versatility to sear steaks, smoke BBQ ribs, bake pizza,
griddle, and everything in between.
D
Pull and Clean Grease and Ash System
Designed for quick and easy clean up without requiring
a vacuum, the grease and ash collect in the grease tray
located at the bottom of the cookbox. Grease and ash can
then flow to the grease catch for easy disposal.
E
Glow Plug Ignition
The glow plug provides ignition of the fuel within the burn
pot.
PELLET GRILLING 101
How Does the WEBER SEARWOOD Work?
The WEBER SEARWOOD works by delivering WEBER ALL NATURAL
HARDWOOD PELLETS to the burn pot via an auger tube system.
Once the pellets are fed into the burn pot, a glow plug ignites these
pellets. This starts up your grill, and will reach and maintain the
temperature you set on the attached WEBER CONNECT Digital LCD
Controller. Once the glow plug ignites the pellets, it will remain off
for the remainder of the cooking session. The grill's fan provides
oxygen through the burn pot to fuel the fire throughout your cook.
Grilling Recommendations
• For optimal cook performance, download and use the WEBER
CONNECT app with your SEARWOOD grill to automatically get the
latest and greatest software and feature updates.
• When using the top rack to grill or smoke over longer periods of
time, WEBER encourages the use of a large WEBER drip pan on
the lower cooking grates to catch grease and food drippings.
• Always keep the grill lid closed during preheating and cooking
for best performance.
Pellet Quality Matters
Using high quality WEBER ALL NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLETS
is essential for optimal grill operation. The pellets should have
a crisp snap when broken, instead of easily crumbling apart, to
avoid grill performance issues. Good quality pellets should give off
minimal dust and should not appear faded or white in color. They
should also always be stored indoors inside an airtight container
to prevent the absorption of moisture and humidity. Always
store WEBER ALL NATURAL HARDWOOD PELLETS in an airtight
container located indoors away from heat-producing appliances
and moisture.

Maintenance
SEARWOOD
• Clean the grease tray and grease catch before every cook.
• Using the included scraper, clean and remove the cooking grates,
large FLAVORIZER bar, heat diffuser and heat deflector from the
cookbox.
NOTE: Tip the heat diffuser to empty ash before removing it from the
cookbox.
• Next, scrape the cookbox and clear the burn pot of any ash or
debris. This process should be done after every low and slow
cook to high heat sear, 12 hours or 9 cook sessions, whichever
comes first.
• Always run a full shutdown after each cook to ensure grilling
success the next time.
• Purge and empty the hopper and auger tube every 4 weeks with
regular use. Every 2 weeks without regular use.
• Using a dry, non-abrasive cloth, clean the fuel gauge lens every
10 bags of pellets used (Select models only).
