Manual Start Up:
In case of igniter failure, you can start your “Convection Grill” manually.
1. Remove the porcelanized steel grills and integrated flavorizer / flame deflector.
2. Inspect the stainless steel burn pot to ensure that is clean of debris and that the igniter air holes are
not obstructed. Also check to ensure proper placement of the burn grate.
3. Place a small handful of pellets in the bottom of the burn grate. Add a small amount of solid fuel fire
starter, such as those made from sawdust and wax or use wood shavings.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS SUCH A GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LATERN
FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR
FRESHEN-UP THE FIRE! KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE GRILL WHILE IT IS
IN USE.
4. Turn the Intelligent Temperature Control on by following steps 1-5 as noted in Automatic Start up on
page 20
5. Light the fire starter.
6. As soon as pellets are burning briskly, replace the steel flame deflector / flavorizer and cooking grates.
Your grill will begin to produce smoke while the start up cycle is taking place. Close the lid.
Self-Cleaning and turning off your Memphis Wood Fired Convection Grill
Your Memphis Wood Fired Convection Grill will give you many years of service with minimum cleaning. An
important step is allowing the grill and cooking grates to “Self Clean” by running the grill at a high temperature
for 10-15 minutes after each use (or before the next use). Remove the grill grates and flavorizer and make sure
the burn pot is clear of ash. Replace the flavorizer and grill grates and restart the grill. Make sure the control
is in the “cook” mode and use the display to set the temp to 500°. Let the grill burn off any residue inside the
grill for 10-15 minutes and then shut off. Once the grill has cooled, scrape the flavorizer clean using a grill
brush or putty knife and empty the grease trays.
To shut the cooking center off, press l/O (ON-OFF). The fuel feed will stop. When internal temperatures have
cooled to approximately 130° the convection fans will automatically shut off. After the cooking center cools,
clean the outside with a mild detergent and soft rag. Cover the cooking center with the optional cover. Note: If
grease or smoke discoloration is allowed to stay for long periods of time you may need a stronger cleaner to
remove. Frequent through cleanings are strongly advised.
