Huffing sounds are normal.

The combustion fan inside the hopper will turn on and off regularly to provide the correct amount of oxygen to the fire to maintain your set temp. The motor that propels the auger is fairly powerful and is thus a bit loud. This is all normal operation.

GRILL CLEANING

ABOUT
EVERY
2-3 BAGS
80-100LBS

ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE GRILL IS COLD AND THE FIRE IS OUT BEFORE CLEANING.

Keep the inside of the grill clean using a Shop-Vac. This will take only a few minutes. Remove the interior parts and vacuum any ash and residue out of the base of the grill and the firebox. WAIT AT LEAST ONE HOUR AFTER TURNING OFF THE GRILL BEFORE USING THE ASHVAC.

Ash clean-out door and vacuum hose connection point on Green Mountain Grills TREK Prime WiFi pellet grill for efficient ash removal.

AshVac Clean-Out

Use this method to easily clean out the firebox without removing any internal parts. Open the ash clean-out door located on the right side of the grill. Place the end of the vacuum hose over the hole of the clean-out tube that runs into the base of the burn pot. This will remove most of the excess ash from the firebox. THIS DOOR MUST BE CLOSED WHEN OPERATING THE GRILL.

Connecting and using your

MEAT PROBES

Stainless steel meat probe with a flexible wire connector, designed for use with Green Mountain Grills TREK Prime 2.0 for monitoring food temperature.

To use this feature, just plug the connector into the receptacle on the front of the controller.

Lift the stainless flap on the left side of the grill and push the probe through the hole. Then, insert the probe into the center of the food you are cooking. Press either the Probe 1 or 2 button to display the temperature of that probe. This process takes a minute or two to stabilize.

To return to the grill temperature display, simply press the probe button again. If you do not have the probe installed in the control panel, then your digital display will read “NFD” (no food) when you press either probe button. The probe is not suitable for reading temperatures above 257°F (150°C).

STARTUP CYCLE

Understanding your grill’s

AIR TEMPERATURE

The PT200 Platinum Sensor sends data to the computer. This “brain” analyzes the data and adjusts the airflow and pellet fuel flow to maintain the set temperature. Many things affect the data gathered by the sensor–opening the lid, wind, grease splatter, humidity, altitude, and gravity (if the grill is not on level ground).

The computer analyzes all the erratic information and averages it over time. Then, it displays the best result as the most accurate representation of the grill’s current temperature. This is why an instantaneous air temperature reading from a third-party product does not provide much useful information.
