TROUBLESHOOTING
8. GREASE MANAGEMENT:
CAUTION! Grease res are caused by not
properly maintaining the grill and failing to clean
the Traeger Grease Management System (TGMS)
on a consistent basis (see "Maintaining Your Grill"
on page 22). In the unlikely event of a grease
re while cooking, turn the grill off and keep the
lid closed until the re is completely out. Never
keep the lid open during a grease re. If the re
does not go out, lightly sprinkle baking soda on
the re.
CAUTION! Be careful not to burn yourself. If this
does not put out the re, carefully remove the
food from the grill and keep the lid closed until
the re is completely out. Again, be careful not to
burn yourself. When the grill is completely cool,
remove all internal components. Clean any grease
accumulation from the TGMS. Replace the grease
drip tray and grill grates, restart the grill, and
resume cooking.
Although rare, you may see an error message display on your control panel. Please refer to the following chart
for potential issues and how to resolve them:
CODE ERROR SOLUTION
LEr
Low temperature This will occur if the temperature of the grill falls below 120°F (49°C) for 10
minutes, causing the grill to go into shutdown mode. To x, remove any
pellets from the repot. Turn the controller off and then on again and restart
your grill. If the problem persists, call customer service.
HEr
High temperature This error will occur when the temperature in the grill reaches temperatures
above 550°F (288°C) for more than 45 seconds. Let the grill cool, then turn off
the grill. Clear out any remaining pellets from the repot and restart your grill.
If the problem persists, call customer service.
Er1
Bad probe Your probe will need to be replaced.
Er2
Thermocouple

Check the connection underneath the hopper for the thermocouple. If it is
tight, your thermocouple will need to be replaced.
Er3
Failed to ignite Check the connection of the hot rod. If the connection is good, then the hot
rod will most likely need to be replaced
Er4
Fan disconnected Check the connection of the fan. If the connection is good, then the fan will
most likely need to be replaced.
Er5
Igniter disconnected Check the connection of the hot rod. If the connection is good, then the hot
rod will most likely need to be replaced.
Er6
Auger disconnected Check the connection for the auger. If the connection is good, then auger
motor will most likely need to be replaced.
