Display flashes FL and grill shuts down; fire in the pot has gone out during a cook.

Safety first: Turn the grill off and unplug it. Allow it to cool before handling pellets or internal parts.

Steps to recover from flame-out:

• Check pellet level: Refill the hopper with dry pellets if it ran empty.
• Clean fire pot: Remove grates and baffle, then vacuum ash and unburned pellets from the fire pot and surrounding area.
• Inspect fan and igniter: Confirm the combustion fan runs and the igniter glows during startup. Replace any failed components.
• Shield from wind: If cooking in strong wind, reposition the grill or use a windbreak to prevent flame disturbance.
• Restart properly: Follow the manufacturer’s startup procedure, including a priming cycle if required, to re-establish a stable fire.
