If the Hot Rod only is not operating, the Grill can still be used to cook and smoke using the MANUAL
LIGHTING PROCEDURE below:
1) DANGER! Turn the Switch OFF (o) and disconnect the Power Cord. Allow the Grill to thoroughly cool if it is
still hot. From beneath the Pellet Hopper, disconnect the Hot Rod (Red / White wire pair as shown in the the
wiring diagram near the end of this manual). You will need to remove the Hopper Bottom Panel to access the
wiring. Once the Hot Rod is disconnected, replace the Hopper Bottom Panel and plug the Power Cord back
into an appropriate, grounded electrical outlet.
2) Open the Pellet Hopper and fill with Premium Hardwood BBQ Pellets.
WARNING! USE ONLY PREMIUM 100% HARDWOOD BBQ PELLETS, which are specifically made to work
in our grills. NEVER use heating fuel pellets in the Grill due to potential hazardous contaminants and
additives that may be present.
3) Remove the Porcelain Grid, Grease Drain Pan and Heat Baffle to expose the Firepot in the bottom of the Grill.
4) Pour 1/2 cup of Premium Hardwood BBQ Pellets into the Firepot.
5) Squirt 2 tablespoons of Alcohol Gel fire lighter into the Firepot on top of the Pellets.
DANGER! Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start
or “freshen up” a fire in this Grill. Keep all such liquids well away from the Grill when in use.
6) Carefully light the Alcohol Gel with a fireplace match or a long-reach butane lighter.
DANGER! Never squirt Alcohol Gel into a burning fire or a hot Firepot. The Alcohol Gel bottle could explode
and cause a fire, serious injury or death.
7) Let the Alcohol Gel and Pellets burn for approximately 4 minutes.
8) After assuring the Pellets have ignited, install the Heat Baffle, Grease Drain Pan and Porcelain Grid back in
place.
CAUTION! You will now have a fire in the Firepot. Be careful not to burn yourself when you install these
components. Gloves are recommended.
9) Turn the Switch ON (--) and the Temperature/Dial to the setting desired. With the Lid closed, let the Grill
pre-heat for approximately 10 minutes before placing food in the Grill.
