SECTION FOUR: OPERATING TIPS
1) The Temperature Dial can be changed at any time to increase or decrease the cooking
temperature of the Grill. The HIGH/HIGHER Temperature settings are for Grilling. The
MED/MID RANGE Temperature settings are for Slow Cooking. The SMOKE setting is for
Smoking and adding Smoke Flavor to foods being cooked. The SMOKE setting can also be
used to “hold” foods at approximately 180 to 200 degrees F.
2) Your TRAEGER PELLET GRILL should never be moved while it is hot. If you are
transporting your Grill in a vehicle after cooking on it, make sure the fire is completely out
and the Grill is COLD before placing it in any vehicle. NEVER put water into the Firepot. It
will jam the Auger.
3) The TRAEGER PELLET GRILL is designed to operate with the Door CLOSED. Cooking
with the Door open greatly lengthens your cooking time.
4) NEVER add Pellets by hand to a hot Firepot. This is dangerous and you may be seriously
burned. If you run out of Pellets and lose your fire while cooking, let the Grill completely
cool and start again with the INITIAL FIRING INSTRUCTIONS.
5) Make sure the Grease Drain Pan Assembly is properly seated on its locating brackets. The
support bracket of the Grease Drain Assembly should be inserted into the alignment
brackets. If not seated properly, direct heat and flame could come up out of the Firepot and
cause a grease fire in the Grill.
6) When estimating cooking times, the outside temperature will be an important factor. If it is
hot outside, it will take less time for food to cook. If it is cold, wet or windy, it will take
longer.
7) Grease fires are caused by not properly maintaining the Grill by failing to clean your Grease
Drain Pan Assembly. In the unlikely event of a grease fire while cooking, TURN THE
SWITCH OFF and KEEP THE DOOR CLOSED until the fire is completely out. Never keep
the Door open during a grease fire. If it does not go out, lightly sprinkle baking soda on the
fire. Be careful not to burn yourself. If this does not work then carefully remove the food
from the Grill and keep the Door closed until the fire is completely out. Again, be careful
not to burn yourself. When the Grill is completely cool, remove the Porcelain Grill and
replace the foil on the Grease Drain Pan Assembly. Clean any grease accumulation from
the grease drain chute. Replace the Grease Drain Pan Assembly and the Porcelain Grill in
their proper positions, restart the Grill and resume cooking.
8) CARBON MONOXIDE:
WARNING! Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning
you, your family or others.
Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness,
nausea, vomiting, sleepiness and confusion. Carbon monoxide reduces the blood’s
ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness and
death.
See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while cooking or in the
vicinity of this Grill. Carbon monoxide poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold
or flu, is often detected too late.
Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly,
smokers and people with blood or circulatory problems, such as anemia or heart disease.
