FIRST USE – GRILL BURN-OFF
Once your hopper has been primed and before cooking on your grill for the first time, it is important to complete a grill burn-off. Start
the grill and operate at any temperature over 176°C / 350°F (with the lid down) for 30 to 40 minutes to burn-off the grill and rid it of any
foreign matter.
AUTOMATIC START-UP PROCEDURE
1. Plug the power cord into a grounded power source. Open the main barrel lid. Check the fire pot to ensure there is no obstruction
for proper ignition. Open the hopper lid. Ensure there are no foreign objects in the hopper or auger feed system. Fill the hopper
with dry, all natural barbecue hardwood pellets.
2. Ensure the
Temperature Control Dial
is in the SMOKE position. Press the
Power Button
to turn the unit on. This will activate the
start-up cycle. The auger feed system will begin to turn, the igniter will begin to glow and the fan will supply air to the fire pot.
The grill will begin to produce smoke while the start-up cycle is taking place. The barrel lid must remain open during the start-up
cycle. To confirm the start-up cycle has begun properly, listen for a torchy roar, and notice some heat being produced.
3. Once the heavy, white smoke has dissipated, the start-up cycle is complete and you are ready to enjoy your grill at your desired
temperature!
PROPANE GAS GRILL
1. Verify that the regulator knob is turned to the OFF position.
2. Note the triangular indicator mark on the silver regulator housing. Push in the regulator knob and turn 270 degrees (or 3/4)
counter-clockwise to HIGH.
3. Push the igniter button in repetitively until the catches flame. Listen for a
“click” sound to indicate a spark from the igniter, and
look for flame to ensure the burner is lit.
4. After the burner has caught fire, you are ready to enjoy your grill at your desired temperature!
If the burner goes out during operation, turn the regulator knob to the OFF position. Open the grill lid and wait
five minutes before attempting to relight to allow any accumulated gas to dissipate.
IGNITER FAILURE PROCEDURE
If for any reason your electric igniter fails or your grill's flame dies out during a cook, check the following steps, or start your
grill using the manual method.
1. Ensure the
Temperature Control Dial
is in the SMOKE position. Open the barrel lid. Remove the cooking components from
inside. Remove all unburnt pellets and ash from the fire pot. Avoid touching the igniter to avoid injury, as it may be extremely hot.
2. Once all cooking components are removed and cleaned, press the
Power Button
to turn the unit on. Check the following:
• Visually confirm that the igniter is working by placing your hand above the fire pot and feeling for heat.
• Visually confirm that the igniter is protruding approximately 13mm / 0.5 inches in the fire pot.
• Visually confirm that the auger is dropping pellets into the fire pot.
