1. Anytime the Temperature Dial is turned to
SMOKE
the Auger will
turn continuously for 4 minutes, then shuts off for 2 minutes, to
allow the fire get established.
2. Then the auger starts to cycle, delivering fuel for 18 seconds, then
turns off. The Off-Time is determined by the “P” setting.
3. To set or adjust the “P” setting, use the recessed
“P” SET Push
Button.
When the “P”
SET Push Button
is pushed, the corre-
sponding “P” setting is displayed on the LCD screen momentarily.
There are 8 “P” settings, ranging from P0 to P7.
UNDERSTANDING THE “P” SETTING
NOTE:
Factory Default Setting is “P 4”.
Every time the grill is turned “ON”, the “P” setting will return to this default.
INCREASING
the “P” setting
DECREASES
the Fuel Feed Rate, (heat output). This will result in LOWER grill
output temperatures and lower pellet consumption. The lower the grill temperature, means the longer the cook
time or the time any food is exposed to the clean smoke of pellet burning. thus resulting in more smoke flavor.
Care must be taken not to increase the “P” setting to high, which could result in the fire going out.
DECREASING
the “P” setting
INCREASES
the Fuel Feed Rate, (heat output). This will result in HIGHER grill
temperature output and higher pellet consumption. The higher the grill temperature, results in a shorter
cooking time and less time the food is exposed to the clean smoke being generated, resulting in less smoke
flavor. Care must be taken not to decrease the “P” setting to low, which will result in overfeeding the pellets
and the production of creosote or incomplete combustion.
The main benefit to the P SET Push Button is that it allows you, the
Pit Master, to
MANUALY
fine tune and run your Pit Boss Pellet Grill
to compensate for ambient temperatures, humidity, wind, environ-
mental changes, pellet fuel type and quality, while not relying on the
grill probe to do it automatically. It will allow for a wider tempera-
ture range at the lower setting.

HOW IT WORKS
IMPORTANT:
To Change the “P” setting, use a small nylon or plastic screwdriver,
or small, blunt tool to carefully depress the push button.
DO NOT use any metal instrument, as this could cause the board to short out.
