OPERATING THE GRILL:
Read and follow all warnings and instructions contained in the preceding sections of this manual.
BREAKING IN YOUR GRILL:
•
In manufacturing and preserving the components of your grill, oil residue may be present on the
element and cooking surfaces of your grill.
•
Before cooking on your grill for the first time you should follow "Initial Lighting Instructions" to ensure
the auger is fully charged with pellets.
PREHEATING THE GRILL:
•
Prior to use, it is recommended that you preheat your grill. This ensures that the grilling surfaces are
at the desired temperatures to sear the food sugars when cooking. Preheat the grill for 10 to 15
minutes or until it reaches the desired temperature before adding food. Close the lid during the
preheat period.
•
DO NOT leave your grill unattended while in use.
•
DO NOT move grill when in use. Block wheels in place to stabilize grill.
•
DO NOT use water to extinguish flare-ups.
TO MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS:
•
Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
•
Cook meats with high fat contents (chicken or pork) on "LOW" settings or indirectly.
•
Ensure that your grill is on level ground and the grease is allowed to evacuate the grill through the
drain hole on the side of the grill and into grease bucket.
IF AN EXTENSION CORD IS NECESSARY:
•
Use a CSA or UL- approved 3-prong grounded extension cord that is rated for at least 7-10 Amp
and is marked as suitable for outdoor use.
•
Keep the power cord connection dry and off of the ground.
•
Avoid running the power or extension cord across walkways, driveways, or anywhere where it could pose a
tripping hazard.
