Screen Display- SETPOINT TEMPERATURE
Description:
Shows the temperature setting for the main cooking
chamber.
NOTE: When you first turn on the grill, the default SETPOINT
temperature is SMOKE.
Settings: The SETPOINT temperature can be changed in (5) five degree
increments from 200F to 450F. The SMOKE setting operates at
temperatures between 170F-190F. On GRILL, the temperatures will be
above 450F. To change the temperature setting for the grill, press the
STAR button. The temperature will flash. Use the UP or DOWN arrow
buttons to adjust the grill to your desired cooking temperature. Once the
desired temperature is displayed, press the STAR button once. The
temperature will stop flashing and the grill will adjust to the new cooking
temperature.
NOTE: Once the grill has reached the chosen SETPOINT
temperature, the Pellet Boss® will beep (3) three times.
AUGER OPERATION ICON
A small “a” will appear in the right-hand corner of the Pellet Boss®
display screen whenever the auger is operating. This confirms that your
auger is rotating and transporting pellets from the hopper to the firepot.
When the auger is not turning, the “a” will not be displayed on the Pellet
Boss® screen.
NOTE: The auger does not turn continuously unless you are
cooking at temperatures above 450F.
NOTE: As a safety feature, the auger will stop whenever the pellet
hopper lid is opened. It will resume operation when the lid is closed.
Screen Display-IGNITION
Description:
Indicates that the grill is in the igniting mode.
Settings : When you turn on the grill, it will start the IGNITION sequence
automatically and will remain in IGNITION until the grill has established
fire in the firepot. There are no settings for this feature.

Screen Display- PROBE 1

The internal food temperature of Meat Probe 1.
Settings: To add an alarm for the probe, press the RIGHT button on the
Pellet Boss® until you reach PROBE 1. Press the STAR button. The word

temperature you want. Press the STAR button again. The grill will now
alarm when the probe reaches the selected temperature.
NOTE: Whenever any Meat Probe is set to ALARM, a capital letter
“A” will appear in the lower left side of the Pellet Boss™ display
screen.
Probes 2 & 3- Description and Settings are the same as Probe 1.
NOTE: To ensure proper operation of the temperature/meat probes,
never expose the meat probe inputs to moisture, dust or dirt.
Otherwise the probes may not function correctly. If water has
entered a probe jack, try drying it out using a can of computer air.
For best results, prevent twisting the probe cable, exposing it to
high heat or direct flame, or immersing it in water. To clean, wipe the
probe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The probes should only
be used to monitor internal meat temperatures, not your grill's
cooking temperature. Store probes in a dry place away from water or
moisture.

Boss® until you reach TIMER. Press the STAR button until the minutes
