Startup and Shutdown
Once you are ready to grill you will use the touch screen display to startup and shutdown the grill.
IMPORTANT: Prior to operating the grill in any capacity, ensure that the firepot is clear of any ash
build-up or unburned pellets. Make sure the Firebox is clean of any ash build up or grease. Making
sure that the inside of your pellet grill is clean and clear. This will help with the longevity of your grill,
so make sure this process is done regularly.
