STEP 5 PREPARING THE GRILL FOR USE
1. Seasoning The Grill
The grill is now fully assembled and it is time to season
the grill. The seasoning process is an important part of
preparing your grill for use it allows any oil residue from
the manufacturing process to burn off and also allows
the high-temperature paint to cure. Avoid placing
any items on the unit during this period as the paint
could be permanently damaged. To season the grill,
fill the hopper with enough pellets to run the grill at the
maximum temperature (500°F) for 1 hour with the lid
closed. Once the grill has properly been seasoned see
the “Standard Use And Operating Instructions” section
of this manual for further information.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: If the flame plate is installed incorrectly
the pellets may burn back into the hopper, and/or
the grill may smoke excessively during cook mode
and may not maintain set cooking temperature
properly.
