OPERATING TIPS

1.like all grills, the actual temperature of this grill and the cooking times will be affected by

external temperature, humidity, wind conditions, quality of pellets, etc.

2.It is beneficial to shelter your grill from the wind. This will aid in temperature output, heat

retention and heat recovery time when the lid is open.

3.Do not open the lid frequently, it will increase your cooking time. You can open the lid

when you want the grill to cool down quickly.

4.Please preheat the grill for 10 minutes before adding food. This will allow your grill to heat

up quickly and return to your desired temperature once food is added.

5.Never move your grill while in use.

6.Never put water into the Pellet Hopper or Firepot.

7.

WARNING: NEVER ADD PELLETS TO THE FIREPOT DIRECTLY. IT IS DANGEROUS.

If you run out of pellets and lose your fire while cooking, let the grill cool down and start

again with the INITIAL FIRING INSTRUCTIONS.

8.We recommend you cover your Grease Drain Pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil and

change it frequently. This is the simplest way to clean your Grease Drain Pan. Failure to

clean the Grease Drain Pan, V-shaped Grease Drain and Grease Drain Tube may cause

grease fires. If this situation happens, turn the Temperature Dial to SHUT DOWN CYCLE

and keep the lid open until the fire is completely out. AT THE SAME TIME, BE CAREFUL

NOT TO BURN YOURSELF. When the grill is completely cool, clean any grease

accumulation from the V-shaped Grease Drain and the Grease Drain Pan. Replace the foil

on the Grease Drain Pan. Then restart the grill and resume cooking.
