IMPORTANT SAFETY
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND USING
THE APPLIANCE
Please read this entire manual before installation and use of this pellet-burning appliance. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Contact local building or re ofcials
about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.
Cooking with a hardwood re brings years of enjoyment – to you and your lucky friends and family. Your new
Traeger grill is specially designed to make cooking easier while giving you optimal performance with the most
savory-avored food.
As with all grills and cooking appliances, any time you burn a material (whether it be wood, gas, or charcoal),
organic gases are formed during the cooking process. One gas that can be particularly harmful in concentrated
quantities is carbon monoxide. In an outdoor, open-air environment, carbon monoxide should naturally dissipate
and not harm you.
WARNING! Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you, your family, your
pets, or others:
• Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning:
headache, 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. 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.
IMPORTANT: READ CAREFULLY AND RETAIN FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
If you are assembling this unit for someone else, provide this manual for the owner to read and save for
future reference.
DANGER!
For North American Consumers:
• Plug into an appropriate 3-prong outlet.
• An electrical supply with GFCI protection is required.
To protect against shock hazard, locate a grounded
3-prong receptacle in reach of the 6' (1.8-m) power
cord. When installing the receptacle, follow the
National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances.
For Consumers in the European Union:
• Plug into an appropriate earthed outlet.
• Do not remove earth prong or modify plug in any
way. Do not use an adapter or extension cord.
• 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.
• Only use your Traeger grill outside on a
noncombustible oor and away from combustible
materials.
• Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter uid, or ammable liquids
to start or “freshen up” a re in this appliance. Keep
all such liquids well away from this appliance when
in use.
DANGER!
• Hazardous voltage is present, which can shock,
burn, or cause death. Disconnect the power cord
before servicing the grill unless otherwise noted
in this Owner’s Manual.
• Never use or store ammable liquids near the grill.
• Never use gasoline or lighter uid to manually
light your grill.

WARNING!
Smoke Hazard
A pellet overow condition can occur during start-up,
resulting in unusually thick, white smoke that lasts a
long time. If this occurs, power down your grill with
the Main Power switch and unplug. If this condition
continues long enough, gases can build up from partial
ignition and fully ignite, causing the lid to “burp.” If
this burp occurs and your grill has not been properly
maintained as described in “Maintaining Your Grill” on
pages 20-21, a grease re could result. To remedy this
condition, let the grill cool down completely, remove all
internal components, and thoroughly clean all ash and
pellets from the grill and repot (see page 21, “Cleaning
the Ash from Inside and Around the Firepot”).
WARNING!
Burn Hazard
Many parts of the grill will become very hot during
operation. Care must be taken to avoid burns, both
during operation and afterwards, while the grill is still hot.
• Never leave the grill unattended when young
children are present.
• Never move the grill when it is operating.
• Let the grill cool thoroughly before moving or
attempting to transport.
WARNING!
Fire Hazard
• When operating this grill, maintain a MINIMUM
distance of 18 inches (45.7 cm) from the grill to
combustibles.
• When operating this grill under overhead
combustibles, a MINIMUM of 40 inches (102 cm)
is required.
WARNING!
Air Contaminant Hazard
• Assemble and operate this grill ONLY per the instructions
in the Assembly Guide and this Owner’s Manual.
• This grill is intended for OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
• Never use heating fuel pellets in the grill, due to
potential hazardous contaminants and additives
that may be present.
CAUTION!
• Always store wood pellets in a dry location, away from
heat-producing appliances and other fuel containers.
• Keep the grill clean. See the cleaning instructions
in this Owner’s Manual.
• Do not use accessories not specied for use with this grill.
• For best results and avor, use genuine
TRAEGER
®
BRAND HARDWOOD PELLETS.
• Even if there is ample room in the grill, be cautious of
loading excessive amounts of food that can release
large quantities of ammable grease, for example
more than a pound of bacon, especially if the grill
has not been well-maintained. If your previous cooks
have produced large quantities of ammable grease,
it is highly recommended that the grease be cleaned
from the grill before using it again.
For Consumers in the European Union:
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory,
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.

BARREL SHAPE
An 18 lb. (8.2 kg) capacity pellet hopper will keep you
cooking for hours. Pair that with Traeger’s Controller
with WiFIRE® Technology and delicious food is just a
“click” away.
GRILLING SPACE
With 575-780 in.2 (0.37-0.50 m2) of grilling space, your
Traeger grill has the real estate for party-sized orders of
T-bones or racks of ribs.
Traeger’s signature barrel shape creates a vortex of
convection. It circulates hot, smoky air around the
cooking chamber, surrounding your food with
wood-fired heat for even cooking on all sides.
HIGH-TECH CONTROLS
With the Traeger® Pro Series Grill, controlling your
grill is as easy as pulling out your phone. The WiFIRE®
Technology allows you to set and adjust temperatures
automatically with recipes downloaded from our Traeger
app. To download the app for Android, go to the Google
Play Store; for Apple, go to the App Store. For information
on how to use the app, go to traegergrills.com/wifire.
See “Connecting Your Grill” section on next page for
instructions on how to connect to Wi-Fi.
VERSATILITYNO FIREFIGHTING
An adjustable 2-tier grate system oers options to load
up both grill grates for a true feast; remove the top grate
for taller food like a colossal turkey.
You don’t have to worry about drippings flaring up and
causing nasty fireballs that destroy your meal because
Traeger Wood Fired Grills cook by using indirect heat.
All drippings are safely channeled into an external
grease bucket for easy disposal.
WARNING! Keep your grill clean. See "Operating
Tips" and "Maintaining Your Grill."
