Controller Touch Pad Instructions
NOTE:
e The maximum temperature that the pellet grill can achieve is influenced by the ambient temperature.
In colder weather, the grill may not be able to achieve the highest set temperature and it will continually
feed pellets into the fire pot attempting to reach the set temperature.
e There might be some discrepancy between the digital temperature displayed and the temperature
observed on the analog lid gauge. Some variance is normal due to the location and calibration
differences.
e When changing the operating temperature, allow up to 15 minutes for the temperature to stabilize. lf
lowering the temperature, it is best to leave the open lid for a few minutes to help decrease quicker.
