OPERATION
"M" Meat Probe Setting
Insert Meat Probe to P1 or P2, and set temperature dial to your desired one. Then push "M"and hold for 3
seconds, until there is " " flashing under "PROBE1". Regulate "+" or "-" to your desired food temperature set;
then push "M" to set "PROBE2". The last time you push the "M" button, the setting is completed. When set
temperature is reached, it will be displayed on the LCD screen, and trigger the buzzer to alert user that desired
temperature has been met. Then switch temperature dial to "STAND BY" or other settings for continuing the
grill, and the buzzer will stop its alarm signal timely.
Note: If you don’t set temperature for Meat Probe,
"PROBE1" and "PROBE2" will only indicate real-time temperature.
SMOKE
NOTE:
Always clean or check your burn pot before each use. This will ensure proper ignition and heat output.
AUTOMATIC START UP
1. Ensure the POWER SWITCH is in the "OFF" position, and TEMPERATURE DIAL in the "STAND BY" position.
2�
Plug the POWER CORD into a 110-120V grounded outlet. DO NOT break the ground end of the cord or use a
non-grounded outlet or extension cord.
NOTE: When plugged into a GFI, ensure it is at least 15 amps.
3�
Open the HOPPER LID to ensure there are NO foreign objects in the hopper or AUGER feed system. Fill
hopper with dry all natural hardwood wood pellets.
4�
Open the COOKING LID. This lid MUST be open during the START-UP and STAND BY cycles.
5�
Turn the Temperature Dial to SMOKE. This activates the startup cycle. The feed system will start to turn, the
igniter will begin to glow and the fan will supply air to the fire pot. Your grill will begin to produce smoke
while the startup cycle is taking place. The pellets have ignited once the smoke has cleared. To confirm,
with your cooking lid still open, you will hear a torchy roar and begin to feel heat being produced.
6�
Close the lid. Turn the Temperature Dial to HIGH, to allow the unit to preheat for approximately 15 to 20
minutes.
CAUTION: If excessive flames are visible and no smoke is being produced, turn the power off and
repeat step 1.
7�
Remember that lower temperatures produce more flavor, and different wood pellets will produce different
temperatures; as well as the outside temperature and weather conditions will also affect your cooking
temperatures. The Temp Probe and read outs on the control and thermometers are APPROXIMATES.

MEAT TEMP PROBE

“P” / “M” Setting SMOKE
STAND BY
TEMP CONTROL
“P” SETTING
The main benefit to the “P” Button is that it allows you to fine tune your Pellet Grill to compensate
for ambient temperatures, humidity, wind, environmental changes, pellet fuel type and quality. Anytime the
temperature dial is first turned to SMOKE the Auger will turn continuously for 2.5 minutes and then shut off for
2 minutes, to allow the fire to get established. The auger then starts to cycle, delivering fuel for 16 seconds,
and then proceeds to turns off. The same goes for next cycle.
When the “P” Button is pushed, the “P” SET 4 starts flashing on the LCD screen. Regulate setting by pushing
“+” or “-”. The corresponding “P” setting is displayed on the LCD screen momentarily. There are 8 “P” settings,
ranging from P0 to P7. Note: Factory default setting is “P4”. Last push the “P” SET, the flashing stops and
setting is completed. There are 8 “P” settings in SMOKE mode, ranging from P0 to P7. P0 has the highest
temperature; P7 is the lowest temperature.
Do not increase the “P” setting too high when outside temperature is low. As this could result in the
fire going out.
“P” SET MANUAL FEEDING
Press and hold “P” button for 5 seconds, the “P” button on the LCD screen will continue flashing, and the feeding
system will continuously transfer pellets to the Burn Pot. There will be more smoke if this function is used in
SMOKE mode, with more heat being produced if used before opening the lid.
“M” TIMER SETTING
After pushing the “M” timer button, the screen displays 01:00, when “01” continues flashing you can regulate “+” or
“-” to
the desired hour. Proceed to push the “M” button, so “00” flashes to regulate “+” or “-” to the desired minute.
Every time you push “+” or “-” in hour/minute mode, it increases or decreases 1 hour/5 minutes.
Please note: Do not leave grill unattended for a long duration of time. If there are any grill fires, cut
off power immediately.
