Set-Up Procedure; First Use - Grill Burn-Off - Louisiana Grills LG800E Assembly And Operation Manual

UNDERSTANDING THE PROBES
• GRILL PROBE
The grill probe measures the internal temperature of the main grill. When the grill temperature is adjusted, the grill probe
will read the actual (current) temperature inside the grill to adjust to the desired temperature.
IMPORTANT: The temperature of your unit is highly dependent on ambient outdoor weather, quality of pellets
used, flavor of pellets, and the quantity of food being cooked.
MEAT PROBE (PROGRAMMABLE)
•
The meat probe measures the internal temperature of your meat on the grill, similar to your indoor oven. Plug-in the adapter
to the meat probe connection port and insert the stainless steel meat probe into the thickest portion of your meat. Not
only will it cook the meat to your desired temperature, but it will automatically reduce your grill temperature to low (82°C /
180°F) to keep food warm until ready to serve. Just set it, then relax while the probe does the rest!
NOTE: When placing the meat probe into your meat, ensure the meat probe and meat probe wires avoid direct
contact with flame or excess heat. This can result in damage to your meat probe. Run the excess wire out the rear
exhaust holes of the main grill, the top of the main grill (near the grill lid hinge), or through the front hole near the
hopper. When not in use, disconnect from the meat probe connection port, and place in the holes on the hopper
handle to keep protected and clean.
TIP: Based on how long you will be away from the grill, set your desired temperature 10 to 15 degrees below your
liking, as the food will continue to rise in temperature, as the grill cools, and idles at the lowest temperature.
Ensure it is inserted all the way into the plug. You will feel and hear it snap in place.

SET-UP PROCEDURE

These instructions should be followed the first time the grill is ignited (after grill burn-off), and after every few uses, to ensure
proper ignition:
1. Remove all cooking components, and the burn grate, from the interior of the grill. Inspect the burn pot to ensure it is clear
of debris. Open the hopper lid. Make sure there are no foreign objects in the feed system or hopper.
2. Replace the burn grate into the burn pot. Ensure the hole in the burn grate is facing the igniter to light the pellets, and
the lip of the burn grate should be flush with the top of the burn pot.
3. Re-install the cooking components into grill. The grill is now ready to use.
FIRST USE – GRILL BURN-OFF
Before cooking on your grill for the first time, it is important to complete a grill burn-off. Start the grill and operate any temperature
over 176°C / 350°F, with the lid down, for 30 to 40 minutes to burn-off the grill and rid it of any foreign matter.
To adjust the SETPOINT temperature of the grill, press the PROBE button to indicate that the
GRILL probe temperature is presently being displayed. Press the TEMP button to indicate that
the SETPOINT temperature is selected, and press the UP or DOWN Temperature Adjust Arrows,
adjusting by five degree increments, to your desired temperature.
To view the ACTUAL temperature of the grill, press the PROBE button to indicate that the GRILL
probe temperature is presently being displayed. Press the TEMP button to indicate that the
ACTUAL temperature is selected, and displayed on the LED screen.
