TIMER FUNCTION
Using the timer is optional. It doesn’t turn your grill off, it simply beeps five times to tell you the time is up. Use the timer with
the basic grilling function. To set the timer:

turns green.
2. Press the timer T button the light above the button will come on and the display will flash 5:00 (default). Use the u
and d buttons to set the desired time. The time can be set from 30 seconds to 19 minutes 30 seconds in 30 second
increments. If you don’t press either button within 5 seconds, the grill will revert to temperature mode.
3. The display will stop flashing and the timer will start to count down 5 seconds after you last press the u or d button.
4. When the timer reaches zero, the grill will beep five times and the display will flash 0:00 . Remember that your grill is still
