w CAUTION
Minimum Ambient Temperature
• When the ambient temperature falls below -20°F
(-29°C), damage to the controller’s display may occur.
w WARNING
Improper placement of the meat probe
or improper meat probe calibration could result in raw
or undercooked meats, which may increase your risk
of foodborne illness.
w WARNING
If the re in the repot goes out while
cooking, it is important to follow these steps. Failure to
do so may cause a hazardous “overring” of your grill
due to an excess of unburned pellets in the repot. This
is often caused by improper start-up procedure and/or
running out of pellets.
• Turn the main power switch at the back of the grill
hopper to OFF (O) and disconnect the power cord.
Allow the grill to cool thoroughly. Open the door and
remove all food, grill grates, drip tray, and heat bafe.
• Remove all unburned pellets and ash from inside
and around the repot. (See instructions for proper
handling and disposal of ash on page 23.)
• Before replacing the heat bafe, drip tray, and grill
grates, plug the power cord into an appropriate
grounded/earthed electrical outlet and turn the main
power switch to ON (I). Pellets should fall into the
repot and the hot rod should begin to heat
(it will start to turn red).
w CAUTION
Do not touch
the hot rod.
• When ames start to come out of the repot, turn the
main power switch to OFF (O). Let the grill cool down.
Now you’re ready to place the heat bafe, grease
drip tray, grill grates, and food back into the grill.
w WARNING
• Turn the main power switch to OFF (O) and
disconnect the power cord before initiating any
maintenance.
• Accumulated grease is easier to clean off when
the grill is still warm—not hot. Be careful not
to burn yourself. Heat-protective gloves are
recommended.
• A dedicated vacuum cleaner is the best way to
remove ashes from the repot, but this must be done
with extreme care to avoid the risk of re. Again,
cleaning the ash from in and around the repot
should be done only when the grill is COLD.
• Cleaning the grill grates works best while they
are still warm. Be careful not to burn yourself.
Heat-protective gloves are recommended. We
recommend keeping a long-handled cleaning brush
near the grill. After removing your food, give the grill
grate a quick brushing. It takes only a minute and it
will be ready the next time you want to use the grill.
