Getting Started; Shutting Off Your Smoker - Louisiana Grills LG CHAMPION Assemblage Et Fonctionnement

GETTING STARTED

START-UP PROCEDURE - AUTOMATIC
Always inspect, and clean if necessary, the burn pot, burn grate, igniter, flame broiler, cooking surfaces, hopper and
wood pellet fuel before using your grill.
Step 1: Plug the power cord into a 110Volt grounded electrical outlet. DO NOT break the ground end off the cord or use a non-
grounded outlet or extension cord.
Step 2: Lift the hopper lid. Ensure that there are no foreign objects in the hopper or feed system. Fill the hopper with only dry,
all natural wood, BBQ wood pellets.
Step 3: Press the ON/OFF touch pad. The "START UP" mode will begin. The feed system will begin to feed fuel at the pre-set
software rate, the fan will begin to operate, and the igniter will begin to get hot. The START UP mode is timed to last at least 20
minutes or until the appliance reaches an operating temperature of 65oC / 150oF.
Step 4: Press the ARROW UP button to a HIGH temperature to pre-heat and clean your grill.
NOTE: FOR HEALTH SAFETY IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ALWAYS PREHEAT YOUR GRILL BEFORE ADJUSTING TO YOUR FINAL
TEMPERATURE.
Step 5: After allowing the grill to PREHEAT, use the ARROW touch pads to set your desired temperature.
TIP: When reducing your desired temperature to a lower setting, it is highly recommended to lift the lid until the ACTUAL
temperature is relatively close to the new DESIRED temperature.
START-UP PROCEDURE - MANUAL
Step 1: Plug the power cord into a 110Volt grounded electrical outlet. DO NOT break the ground end off the cord or use a non-

SHUTTING OFF YOUR SMOKER

Your Champion pellet grill will give you many years of flavorful service with minimum cleaning. An important step is allowing the
grill and cooking grids to "self-clean" by running the grill on HIGH or PREHEAT temperatures for 5 to 10 minutes after each use,
over 232oC / 450oF.
