Quick Start Guide
1 Before turning the grill on, fill the hopper with up to 10lbs. of food grade
wood pellets.
2 To turn the grill on, plug it in and flip the switch on the back of the grill.
A status light will illuminate near the Probe Ports on the back of the grill.
3 Turn the front knob to the desired temperature or, turn the knob to the
wifi setting to control wirelessly via the app. If the knob is not turned to wifi,
the app will not be able to control the grill.
4 ALWAYS KEEP TOP VENT IN OPEN POSITION WHEN OPERATING THE GRILL.
5 Vent should be opened anytime the grills ON.
6 Once cooking is complete turn the knob to the off position. Do not unplug or power
off the grill at this time. The grill is off, but the fan will continue to run for 15 minutes.
This will prevent any burn back in the auger. Once the fan has automatically shut off,
flip the switch on the back of the grill. Once the grill has cooled, unplug the grill,
cover, and store in dry environment.
7 Close vent after grill is OFF and has completed the shutdown sequence.
8 Always store pellets in a cool dry place. Any contact or exposure to moisture
will result in lower heat output or cause the pellets to swell and break apart.
Use a moisture proof, resealable tub or bucket for proper storage.
9 If the grill is stored outside during the rainy season or seasons of high humidity,
care should be taken to insure that water does not get into the hopper.
When wet or exposed to high humidity, wood pellets will expand greatly,
decompose, and may jam the feed system. Always disconnect the power, before
performing any service or maintenance.
ADDITIONAL INFO:
1 Hopper door must be closed in order for the Pellet Joe to run.
2 The Pellet Joe takes approximately 10 minutes for the pellets to fully ignite.
An additional 10 minutes is required to reach the set temperature.
3 Convecting air can cause the temperature on the Lid Thermometer to vary
slightly from the set temperature.
4 Never open grill lid while the grill smoking heavily, this could cause the pellets
suddenly ignite which could result in injury. Keeping the lid closed will control and
contain the pellet ignition.
5 Clean-burning barbecue wood pellets generate about 8200 BTU’s per pound with
very little ash, a low moisture content (5-7%), and are carbon neutral.
