Understanding The Probes; Understanding The "P" Setting - Pit Boss PB700FBW2 Montage- Und Betriebsanleitung

UNDERSTANDING THE PROBES

• TEMPERATURE PROBE
Located inside the main barrel, on the left wall, is the temperature probe. It is a small, vertical piece of stainless steel. The
temperature probe measures the internal temperature of the unit. When the temperature is adjusted on the Control Board, the
temperature probe will read the actual temperature inside the unit and adjust to the desired temperature.
IMPORTANT: The temperature of your unit is highly affected by ambient outdoor weather, quality of pellets used,
flavor of pellets, and the quantity of food being cooked.
• MEAT PROBE
The meat probe measures the internal temperature of your meat in the grill, similar to your indoor oven. Plug-in the meat
probe adapter to the meat probe connection port on the Control Board and insert the stainless steel meat probe into the
thickest portion of your meat and the temperature will be displayed on the control board. To ensure the meat probe is
connected properly to the connection port, feel and hear it snap into place.
NOTE: When placing the meat probe into your meat, ensure the meat probe and meat probe wires avoid direct
contact with flame or excess heat. This can result in damage to your meat probe. Run the excess wire out the rear
exhaust holes of the main grill or the top of the main grill (near the grill lid hinge). When not in use, disconnect
from the meat probe connection port and place aside to keep protected and clean.

UNDERSTANDING THE "P" SETTING

When the recessed "P" SET button is pushed, the "P" setting displayed on the LCD
screen will flash and change to the next value (upward). Once P7 is reached, it will
restart at P0. There are eight "P" settings, ranging from P0 to P7. The recessed "P" SET
button can be pushed using a thin-tipped object.
IMPORTANT: Do not push the "P" SET button too hard, as this may cause
damage. Only a light push is needed.
USING THE "P" SETTING IN SMOKE MODE
•
Anytime the temperature dial is set to SMOKE, such as the start-up cycle, the
auger will run on more of a manual mode of cooking versus using one of the
preset dial temperatures. First, the auger will continuously turn and feed pellets
for four minutes. After four minutes, the auger begins to run a feed cycle based
on the "P' setting selected on the Digital Control Board. The default setting is P4.
