Troubleshooting
In case of igniter failure, you can start your RT-2500 manually:
1. Remove the stainless steel grates, drip pan, and heat deflector.
2. Clean out fire pot and place no more than 1/2 cup of pellets in the bottom. Add a
small amount of solid fuel fire starter, such as those made from sawdust and wax, or
use wood shavings.
Tip: A paper towel, shredded cardboard, or shredded newspaper can work as a
substitute.
If you have a torch lighter, a fire starter is not needed.
3. Light the fire starter.
4. After the pellets are burning briskly, turn on your grill. If your fire goes out, repeat
steps 1-4.
5. If your fire stays lit, replace the stainless heat deflector, drip pan, and cooking grates
then close the lid.
Be careful not to touch the fire.
CAUTION: Do not use flammable liquids such as gasoline, gasoline-type
lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
freshen-up the fire! Keep all such liquids well away from the grill while it is in
use.
