Quick Start
If this is the first time this grill has been started, make sure
you pour the ziploc starter bag of pellets into the firebox
as explained on Page 6 Part 4.
Fill the Hopper: Fill the hopper with pellets.
It will hold about 19 lbs. of Green Mountain
Premium hardwood grilling pellets.
Low Pellet Alarm: Your hopper is equipped
with a low pellet alarm. If you do not cover this
with pellets, it will make a sound somewhat like
a backhoe in reverse.
On/Off Switch: The grill turns on when you
depress the switch to the side with the line (-)
and turns off when you depress the switch to the
side with the o (o).
Starting the Grill: When you turn the grill on,
the digital readout will display "OFF". To start
the grill, simply push the UP or DOWN arrow
briefly.

Daniel Boone & Jim Bowie - Quick Start
What to Expect: When you press the UP or DOWN arrow,
the grill will cycle through 4 stages (0-1-2-3). This will take
about 4 minutes. After that, it will show the initial temperature
inside the grill.
Setting the temperature: Do not push any buttons until the
computer finishes the 0-1-2-3 cycles. Once it displays a
temperature, you can change to the desired setting. If you do
nothing, the grill will automatically go to 150° F (66° C).
Burn-In: The first time you use your grill, you must "burn it
in" to get rid of odors and deposits inherent in the manufac-
turing process. Do this for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
Time to reach temperature: It should take about 17-18
minutes from the time you first turn the grill on until it
achieves the temperature you set. This will be mostly
independent of the outside air temperature or the
temperature you choose.
TURNING THE GRILL OFF
Always use the "FAN" mode as follows:
• Push the DOWN button until the temperature reads 150.
• Release the button.
• Press the DOWN button once more – digital readout will
display "FAN."
• The fans will continue to run for about 15 minutes to burn up
the excess pellets in the firebox and to blow out some of the ash.
• The grill will then shut itself off, and the digital readout will
display "OFF." Now you may unplug your grill.
* Note: Run the grill at 150 for several minutes after cooking
at 400+

Questions and answers
Hi, my Jim Bowie no longer can be detected by my phone.
Your GMG Jim Bowie grill may not be detected by your phone due to issues with the WiFi setup. Possible reasons include:
1. The grill is connected to a 5GHz network instead of a 2.4GHz one.
2. The network name (SSID) may need to be changed.
3. The WiFi board on the grill may need to be reset.
4. The router may need to be restarted.
5. The latest firmware (1.8) should be installed on the grill.
A possible solution is to reset the WiFi board on the grill, rename the network, disable the 5GHz band, and try reconnecting.
