OPERATING TIPS
1. You can change the temperature at any time
during grilling to increase or decrease cooking
temperature.
To change between Fahrenheit and Celsius:
a. Press MENU.
b. Select SETTINGS.
c. Select TEMPERATURE UNITS.
d. Choose either FAHRENHEIT (°F) or
CELSIUS (°C).
e. Select BACK.
You will now see temperatures displayed in the
format you’ve chosen.
2. WARNING! Your Traeger Timberline 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 re is completely
out and the grill is cold before placing it in any
vehicle. Never put water into the repot; it will
jam the auger.
3. Your Traeger Timberline Grill is designed to
operate with the door closed. Cooking with the
door open greatly lengthens your cooking time.
4. CAUTION! Never add pellets by hand to a hot
repot. This is dangerous and you may be
seriously burned. If you run out of pellets and
lose your re while cooking, let the grill cool
completely and start again with the “HOPPER
CLEAN-OUT" instructions on page 21.
5. CAUTION! Make sure the heat shield is properly
seated on its locating brackets. If not seated
properly, direct heat and ame could come
up out of the repot and cause a grease re
in the grill.
Always take into account the type of food you are
cooking.
• Thin foods need high heat and shorter cook
times, while thicker foods need low heat and
longer cook times.
• Vegetables take longer to cook than meats at
the same cooking temperatures.
• Always check that the internal temperature
of the meat that you are cooking reaches safe
temperatures to eat.
• The Keep Warm function is not designed to
properly cook your food.
6. WARNING! If the re in the repot goes out
while smoking and there are sufcient pellets
still in the pellet hopper, it is important to
follow these steps. Failure to do so may cause
a hazardous “overring” of your grill due to an
excess of unburned pellets in the repot.
DANGER! Turn the Main Power switch at the
back of the grill to OFF (O) and disconnect the
power cord. Allow the grill to cool thoroughly.
Open the door and remove all food, grill grates,
grease pan, grease drip tray, and heat shield.
WARNING! Remove all unburned pellets and
ash from inside and around the repot. (See
instructions for proper handling and disposal
of ash on page 26.)
Before replacing the heat shield, grease pan,
grease drip tray, and the grill grates, plug
the power cord into an appropriate grounded
electrical outlet and turn the switch ON (I). Pellets
should fall into the repot and the hot rod should
begin to heat (it will start to turn red). CAUTION!
Do not touch the hot rod.
When ames start to come out of the repot, turn
the switch OFF (O). Let the grill cool down. Now
you’re ready to place the heat shields, grease drip
tray, and grill grates back into the grill.
7. 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: headaches, 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
u-like symptoms while cooking or in the
vicinity of this appliance. Carbon monoxide
poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a
cold or u, 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 system problems, such as
anemia or heart disease.
