Control Shutdown cycle
The control for this barbecue comes with an automatic shut down cycle. When
finished cooking on your barbecue set the Temperature/Dial Knob to the Shutdown
Cycle position, this will leave the Draft Induction Fan running for ten minutes to burn any
excess pellets in the fire pot. After the fan runs for ten minutes the controller will power
off and the fan and it will stop running.
CAUTION! The main power switch will shut the
power off to the controller and the Temperature/Dial Knob switch will cut off power to
the grill components only. When servicing the controller or any parts ensure that the
power supply is disconnected to avoid a shock hazard.
