Page 24 highlights

OPERATING THE GRILL Step 4: Light the contents of the fire pot using a long match or a long lighter. Allow the starter to burn 3 to 5 minutes. Do not attempt to add more starter into the fire pot as this can cause injury. Step 5: Quickly and carefully replace all components removed in Step 3. Continue on from Step 2 of the "Subsequent Lighting Instructions". TURNING OFF THE GRILL Step 1: Press and hold the power button until the control panel shuts off. An auto cool down feature will keep the fan running for 10 minutes. If you don't allow the grill to run the cool down feature a fire may travel up the auger tube and ignite your pellet hopper. Step 2: After the auto cool down is complete the fan should power off automatically, you may now unplug the power cord from the GFI outlet. WARNING: Do not unplug the grill while the fan is still working on the shut down cycle, the grill will automatically shut off when the cycle is done. Interruption of the shut down cycle could result in a fire in the hopper chamber. OPERATING TIPS • NEVER move your Pellet Grill while it is hot. If you are transporting your grill in a vehicle after cooking on it, make sure the fire is completely out and the grill is cold before placing it in any vehicle. • NEVER put water into the fire pot. It will jam the auger and can damage the ignitor. • The Pellet Grill is designed to operate with the doors closed. • The temperature readout is an approximate and can be affected by the following factors: outside ambient temperature, the amount and direction of wind, the quality of pellet fuel being used, the lid being opened, and the quantity of food. • When selecting a temperature setting, the auger will feed pellets for several minutes. This will momentarily raise the temperature, but the temperature will decrease and stabilize after 10-15 minutes. • The auger will not run 100% of the time, it cycles on and off depending on the temperature setting. • This grill is equipped with a pellet hopper sensor. "LOW PELLET" will illuminate on the controller and it will start beeping once the pellets are below the sensor. After you add pellets the alarm will shut off automatically. • Pellets can hang up in the pellet hopper after cooking for a long period of time. It's important to monitor the pellet level and mix the pellets by hand to ensure they flow into the auger. 24
