“MAJOR CAUSES OF FIRES ARE MAINTENANCE AND FAILURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED CLEARANCES TO

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS. IT IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT THIS PRODUCT BE INSTALLED ONLY IN

ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.”

WARNING: YOU MUST contact your local home association, building or fire officials, or authority having jurisdiction,

to obtain the necessary permits, permission or information on any installation restrictions, such as any grill being

installed on a combustible surface, inspection requirements or even ability to use, in your area.

• YOU MUST keep the entire grill a minimum of 45.72 cm (18 inches), or a safe distance, from all combustibles.

• DO NOT install or operate the grill under a combustible ceiling or overhang.

• DO NOT use indoors, or in an enclosed, unventilated area.

• YOU MUST clean and maintain your grill on a regular basis.

• YOU MUST, after a period of storage, and/or non-use, check the burn grate for obstructions, foreign objects both inside the grill and the

hopper, and air blockage, before use. See instructions in this manual for correct procedures.

• DO NOT put a grill cover or anything flammable, on or in the storage space area under the grill.

• DO NOT allow children to use your LG Champion wood pellet grill while unattended. Accessible parts of the grill may be very hot. Keep

young children and pets away while it is in use.

WARNING: 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.

• DO NOT use lava rock, wood chunks, wood shavings or charcoal in your Louisiana Grills wood pellet grill.

• DO NOT use accessories not specified for use with this appliance.

• Should a grease fire occur, turn “Off” the control and leave lid closed until the fire is out.

• DO NOT unplug the power cord. DO NOT throw water on. DO NOT try to smother the fire.

• YOU MUST use heat-resistant barbeque mitts or gloves when operating the grill.

WARNING: DO NOT transport your LG Champion wood pellet grill while operating or while the grill is HOT. Make sure

the fire is completely out and that the grill is completely “Cool to the Touch”

• DO NOT enlarge burn grate orifices, igniter holes or burn pots.

• DO NOT use your grill in the rain or around any water source.

• YOU MUST ALWAYS disconnect the power, before performing any service or maintenance.

• If the grill is stored outside during the rainy season or seasons of high humidity, care should be taken to insure that water does not get

into the pellet hopper. Wood pellets, when wet or exposed to high humidity, expand greatly, break apart, and could jam the feed system.

• DISPOSAL OF ASHES — Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be

placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from ALL combustible materials, pending final disposal. When ashes are

disposed by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly

cooled.

WARNING: DO NOT touch any part of your LG Champion wood pellet grill while the smoker is HOT.

Serious bodily injury could result.

WARNING: DO NOT over-fire your LG Champion wood pellet grill. Improper Use Can Cause Uncontrolled Fire.

FUEL - WOOD PELLETS

• YOU MUST only use all natural wood pellets, designed for burning in pellet grills. Any other type of fuel burn in this appliance will void

the warranty and safety listing.

• DO NOT use fuel labeled as having additives.

• NOTE: Since Dansons Inc. has no control over the quality of pellets that you use, we assume no liability caused by the quality of fuel used.

CAUTION: DO NOT use spirit, petrol, gasoline, lighter-fluid or kerosene for lighting or refreshing a fire in your grill.

CREOSOTE

• DO NOT operate the appliance if the flame becomes dark and sooty or if the burn pot overfills with pellets. Turn the unit OFF, let the

appliance cool completely, and then inspect the unit. Soot or Creosote may accumulate in the main barrel and along any air leakage

or exhaust areas when the appliance is operated under incorrect conditions, such as incorrect burn grate position, blockage of the

combustion fan, failure to clean and maintain the burn area, etc.

• Soot or creosote is formed when pellets are burned without the correct amount of air to fuel or incomplete combustion, thus producing a

tar like substance and other organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture. The smoke will have a black color to it and the residue

left behind on surfaces, will also be black in color.

• When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot and out of control fire, similar to a grease fire.

• If creosote has formed within the unit; allow the unit to warm up at a LOW temperature, turn OFF the appliance, and then wipe out any

formation with a hand towel. Creosote is similar to tar, when warmed it will become like liquid, and is much easier to clean in this state.

WARNING: IF AN UNCONTROLLED FIRE DOES OCCURE: CALL FIRE DEPARTMENT. DO NOT try to move appliance. DO NOT

try to smother the fire. DO NOT put water on the fire.

CARBON MONOXIDE: “The Silent Killer”

FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES TO PREVENT THIS COLORLESS, ODORLESS GAS FROM POISIONING 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 flu-like symptoms while cooking or in the vicinity of the appliance. Carbon monoxide

poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold or flu, 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.

WARNING: To prevent fingers, clothing or other objects from coming in contact with the auger, your appliance has been

equipped with a metal screen, mounted inside the hopper. This screen MUST NOT be removed unless directed by

Dansons Customer Service or Authorized service personal.

Dear “Champion” wood pellet grill owner:

Thank you for choosing to purchase a “Louisiana Grills Champion” wood pellet smoking’ grill.

Cooking with your Louisiana Wood Pellet Grill is about to bring you full circle from the days of the caveman when cooking

outdoors with wood was a necessity, to cooking indoors in your modern kitchen and now back to the great outdoors and that

savory wood flavor.

Think of your “Champion” as an extra stove available to bake, roast, grill, sear and smoke or char-grill food. Anything that can be

done in your indoor kitchen can be done on your grill.

Barbecuing is a culture all on its own. Barbecuing provides a form of entertainment, which is relaxed and casual. Your meals can

be completely cooked outdoors and the chef is one of the crowd. Keep it simple, be creative, and have some fun.

We’d like to take this opportunity to pass on a few

important tips

concerning grilling with wood pellets.

•

Initial set-up of your “Louisiana Grill” is the most important step

to ensure the efficient and satisfactory operation of

your grill for many years to come.

• Be diligent in your cleaning and maintenance program. Taking care of your grill will add years of life and keep it looking

great.

• Use only all natural wood BBQ pellets designed to burn in pellet grills.

• Ensure your pellet fuel stays moisture free. Open bags of fuel should be stored in an airtight container and empty the hopper

if you are not using the grill over longer periods.

Our loyal staff, valued customers, friends and our loving families have all contributed recipes to our cookbook. We have tried to

include a broad range of cuisines and styles, starting with Mom’s great home cooking and many, many, catering and entertaining

experiences to current classics and new soon to be classics.

WE WANT YOU!

If you are interested in contributing a family favorite or competition winner,

or any recipe, (especially if it contains bacon) please share it with us.

Fax: 1-877-303-3135, Web www.louisiana-grills.com, Email: sales@dansons.com

or snail mail: to the address below.

Now go, fill up the hopper, light up that grill and get ready to enjoy,

“World Class BBQ In Your Own Backyard”

Again we want to say THANK YOU for your purchase.

but can also be used to wrap the power cord around, for easy storage.

The hopper handle also has two smaller size holes. These are used to

temporarily hold the meat probe.

ENGLISH

10

• Using two (2) Phillips screws (D), washers (G) and spring washers (F) secure the handle to hopper access panel, just above the

fan intake, through the two (2) large holes provided.

• Begin by hand starting the threads, then use your Phillips screwdriver to secure.

Step 2 - Preparing for the Hopper:

Place six (6) Multi-head screws (E), washers (G) and spring washers (F) into the main barrel cavity to aid in installing the hopper.

Step 3 - Attaching the Grill Probe Wires:

Your Grill/Smoker comes complete with the “Digital Control Center”

complete with grill probe and programmable meat probe. The grill probe

has been factory installed in the cabinet, with the excess wire and connections

run out through the left end. Be careful not to kink or damage the wires.

The wire connections to the control board can be found inside or taped to the

outside of the hopper. Diagram C

To connect the spade connections, carefully lift the entire hopper to the left

hand-side of the upper cooking cabinet.

IMPORTANT: Ensure the probe wires are run only through this large hole

in the hopper as shown in diagram C.

Begin by resting the bottom of the hopper on the ledge of the burn pot,

sticking out past the barrel. Support the hopper on your leg as you connect

the two spade connections. Diagram D

After firmly connecting the spade connections, carefully thread ALL excess wire,

as well as the connections, back into the hopper. The wiring must not come in

contact with either the fan blades, or the metal auger tube.

IMPORTANT: All excess wire and connections must be placed back in the

hopper. Ensure that they DO NOT touch the fan.

Step 4 - Attaching the Hopper to the Barrel:

• Carefully lift the entire hopper, with the attached grill probe wires, off the

lip of the burn pot.

• Begin by slightly inserting the Auger Feed tube into the auger hole. Then

raise the hopper, as the mounting bracket on the rear of the hopper must be

raised slightly higher than the receiving bracket on the barrel.

• Push the top of the hopper tightly against the main barrel, inserting the auger

tube fully into the barrel. Holding the hopper fairly level, press downward, to

clip the hopper onto the mounting bracket.

• Holding the hopper in place, use one (1) of the Multi-head screws (E), along

with the spring washer (F) and washer (G) from the six (6) you put in the cavity, and

begin hand threading it into one (1) of the six (6) holes provided in the main

barrel cavity.

NOTE: If the holes do not line up, the hopper may need to be fully pushed down into place.

C

D

ENGLISH

11

Now with the hopper partially secured, hand start the remaining five (5) multi-heads screws, spring washers and washers. When

complete secure firmly into place, using the proper tool.

NOTE: Taking extra care not to strip the screw heads will aid in the future.

the bottom of the burn pot. Diagram A & B

• Using your screw driver and the two (2) Phillips metal screws (H) secure the

igniter assembly to the burn pot. Diagram A & B

5 INSTALLING THE BURN GRATE

Parts Required:

1 x Burn Grate

Installation:

• The larger lip of the grate, notched, installs

under the pellet fuel deflector.

• The bend along the larger lip should also be

sitting tight to the back of the burn pot (B).

• The front lip of the grate should be sitting

flush along the top of the burn pot (C).

IMPORTANT: The placement and maintenance of the burn grate is vital to a happy and full range cooking experience!

6 INSTALLING THE “ARCHED FLAME BROILER”

Parts Required:

1 x Flame Broiler Bottom

1 x Flame Broiler Slide Top

Installation:

• To ensure proper height and angle, the bottom plate of the

mounting bracket (A) should not be within the pellet drop

chute area. If you do need to adjust the bracket, loosen off

the three (3) Phillips screws, lift the bracket and re-tighten

the screws.

surfaces and ensure all screws are secure. Stainless steel cleaner

and a soft rag can be used on all stainless surfaces.

HOOKING UP TO POWER:

AT HOME

• This appliance requires 110 volt, 60Hz, 5amp service.

• It must use a 3 prong grounded plug.

• The “Digital Control Centre” oven temp control uses a 3.1 cm x 0.6 cm (1 ¼ in. x ¼ in.), 5 amp 110 volt fuse to protect the board.

GFI Outlets

• This appliance will work on most GFI outlets. Recommended size 15 amp.

• If your GFI outlet is highly sensitive to power surges, it will very likely trip during the ignition phase of operation. During the

ignition phase, the igniter is drawing 300-700 watts of electricity which can be too much power for a GFI outlet to handle.

The quality of the GFI does not matter, rather the sensitivity. Each time a GFI trips it does increase in sensitivity.

Solution 1: Install a brand new GFI

Solution 2: Plug the appliance into a non-GFI outlet.

ON THE ROAD

• By disconnecting the igniter, from the main wiring harness, your grill can be run using a 12 volt, 100 watt “POSITIVE WAVE

LENGTH” inverter plugged into your automobile outlet. Then light your smoker using the manual method (found in lighting

instructions).

• If you do not want to continue to use the automatic igniter, it is recommended to use a minimum of a 1000 watt “POSITIVE

WAVE LENGTH” inverter.

Cooking Zone 1 - Main Barrel: 82 - 315C / 180 - 600F

• This is where your heat, air and flavor is supplied from for the entire unit. When the dampers inside your hot smoker are

completely closed you will maintain convection heat within the main barrel.

ENGLISH

18

• A “CLOSED” arched flame broiler protects the food from direct contact with the flame; gives a large hot metal area to help

evaporate the juices back into the cooking resulting in added flavor, channels excess grease directly to a grease pail; and

distributes the heat evenly throughout the cooking area.

• An “OPEN” arched flame broiler allows for direct contact of the flame and intense heat to the food. An open flame broiler also

results in less air convection within the unit.

• The natural smoke flavor produced by the burning pellets, the “arched flame broiler” and the fan induced “convection

cooking” combine to give you the savory flavor and even cooking that is unique to pellet grills and will win you rave reviews

each time you use it.

Cooking Zone 2 - Hot Smoker Cabinet: 65 - 176C / 150 - 350F

• The bottom cabinet is your hot smoking cabinet. Inside the cabinet, on the left

side wall are two dampers. These dampers control the air flow from the main

barrel. Play around with these to find what works best for you and your needs.

• Top damper closed/bottom damper open: Gives you additional cooking space

while maintaining the convection heat in your main barrel.

• Both dampers open: Maximizes the temperature in your lower cabinet but causes

the main barrel to lose convection heat.

Cooking Zone 3 - Cold Smoker/Warming Oven: 15 - 82C / 60 - 180F

• The upper cabinet is your cold smoking/warming oven. Use the rear exhaust

control panel and the adjustable chimney to reduce the temperature inside of

the upper cabinet.

  

• Adjust the chimney damper to create a natural updraft within the unit. This

affects both the lower and upper cabinet.

TIP: Your LG Champion series pellet grill can run efficiently over extended periods of time and at different heat output levels, as

long as the fuel supply is dry, the burn grate is seated correctly, and timely cleaning and maintenance is performed.

  

Please note that during shipping, or moving around on your deck, some movement within the grill may have taken place, so a

complete visual inspection is required. Please follow these initial set-up procedures to ensure proper and safe operation of your

grill.

TIP: It is highly recommended practice to always go through these basic SET UP PROCEDURES, after every 1 to 2 cooking’s. This will

ensure proper ignition, heat output and many continuous happy grilling experiences.

Step 1

Open the main SMOKER LID and remove the cooking grids (13).

Step 2

Remove the “arched flame broiler” (12).

Remove the packing material. * The coating on the flame

broiler is a food based grease.

Step 3

Remove the stainless steel burn grate (8) and inspect the burn

pot (9). Remove any foreign items. Ensure that the air holes in

grate (8) and the igniter (7) are clear of debris.

Step 4

Re-install the burn grate (8). Ensure that the stainless steel grate is sitting down and snug in the burn pot (9) and that the igniter

is lined up properly with the hole in the burn grate.

ENGLISH

19

Step 5

Re-install the “arched flame broiler” (12). The larger piece of the “arch” should be facing upward and the flame slots close to

the hopper end of the barrel. This then sits on the mounting bracket and grease divider plate. The slot hooks over the movable

hanging bracket found over the pellet fuel drop area. Ensure that this mounting bracket is snug against the barrel. The second

piece of flame broiler then fits on top of the first and then slide “closed”.

Step 6

Re-install the cooking grids (13).

Step 7

Ensure all 3 grease drawers are installed, cleaned and ready to go.

Step 8

Open the hopper lid (1) and check for any foreign materials. Fill the hopper (2) with your choice of all natural wood pellet fuel.

Step 9

Open and inspect both of the smoker cabinets. Remove any foreign items.

Step 10

Pull and push on both of the air transfer rods, to ensure easy operation.

Step 11

Plug it in. Start it up. Get grilling!

This P.I.D. (proportional-integral-derivative) control is very much

the same as the control on your kitchen oven. The main

advantages are the ability to automatically compensate for the

different ambient conditions and fuel types allowing for longer,

carefree BBQ as well as the programmable meat probe function.

Remember: Much like your kitchen oven, the ACTUAL temperature

does fluctuate up and down depending on weather, the flavor of

pellets being used, and the amount of food on the grill.

TEMPERATURE AGREEMENT BETWEEN INSTRUMENTS

The temperature inside of any grill will vary from location to location. Even the instruments calibrated together, will not agree

with each other.

ON / OFF TOUCH PAD

This pressure sensitive touch pad is used to turn the control “ON”, which initiates the automatic “START-UP” mode.

This is also used to turn the control “OFF”, or activate the “SHUT DOWN MODE.”

PRIME TOUCH PAD

This touch pad performs the same function as it has with any Louisiana Grills board. Asked for from the competition

cookers. When the touch pad is pressed and held, the FUEL FEED system will turn and feed more pellets to the burn

grate. This can be used to add more fuel just before opening the grill lid, resulting in a quicker heat recovery time.

It can also be used to add more fuel, while smoking, to increase the amount of clean smoke flavor intensity.

COOK TEMPERATURE UP AND DOWN TOUCH PAD

By pressing either the UP or DOWN arrows, the LED read-out can be moved by 5 degree increments. The temperature

can be set as low as 82C / 180F, for hot smoking to a high of 315C /600F, for searing your steaks and hamburgers.

Also used to perform the same task with the meat probe.

LED DISPLAY SCREEN

This screen is used to display temperature read-outs, as well as displaying error messages, and power up

read-outs. Temperatures can be displayed in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.

ENGLISH

TEMPERATURE DISPLAY

By pressing the TEMP display touch pad, the LED display screen will show and allow movement in either the “ACTUAL”

temperature read-out or the “SET POINT”, desired temperature. The small LED beside both settings is used to indicate

which temperature is presently being displayed.

PROBE SELECTION

By pressing the PROBE display touch pad, the LED display screen will show and allow movement in either the “GRILL”

probe temperature read-outs or the “MEAT” probe temperature readings. The small LED beside both settings is used

to indicate which probe temperature is presently being displayed.

PROGRAMMABLE MEAT PROBE

Designed using the latest in solid state electronics, the digital control center now makes it even easier for anyone to

slow smoke, bake or sear like a professional “Pit-master.” Not only will the control give you the ability to set and

automatically maintain your desired cooking temperature (82C / 180F Hot Smoke to 315C / 600F Searing) just like

your indoor oven, but now with the addition of a separate food probe, it will cook your food to your desired internal

temperature, then adjust the control to a “keep warm” temperature. Along with the true convection cooking within

the grill, keeping your culinary delight from drying out, all you have to do is to set it, then relax or even sleep soundly

while the digital control center will do the rest.

This screen is used to display that there is no internal (meat) probe connected to the digital control center, when

the meat probe selection has been selected.

   

The digital control center programmable food probe is the newest addition to the Louisiana Grills family and is a “must have”

tool for the beginner or professional “Pit-master.” By simply plugging the internal food probe into the board, then placing the

stainless steel probe into your culinary delight, and finally setting your desired meat probe temperature, not only will it cook your

primal feast, to your setting, but it will automatically reduce your pit temperature to its lowest setting to keep food perfectly

done, the way you like, every time. So sit back, relax or enjoy a good night’s sleep and get ready to “Savor the Flavor.”

HOW TO:

PROBE PLUG-IN

Insert the 3.5mm (⅛ in.) audio-style plug from the food probe into this female adapter. Ensure it is

inserted all the way into the plug, you will feel and hear it snap in place. This can be plugged into

the board at any time.

CONTROL POWER ON/OFF TOUCH PAD

Press this touch pad to activate the control. Blue LED read-out will light up, the fan will start, the

pellets will begin to feed, and the igniter will begin to glow.

GRILL COOKING TEMPERATURE

Press the probe pad to “GRILL.” Press the temp pad to “SET POINT.” Use the cook temp “up” or

“down” arrow to select your desired grill temperature from 82C /180F to 315C / 600F.

Press the probe pad a second time to show actual grill temperature.

FOOD PROBE TEMPERATURE

Press the probe pad to “MEAT.” Press the temp pad to “SET POINT.” Using the temp arrows, “up”

or “down” to select your desired internal food temperature. The probe can be set from 10C / 50F

to 107C / 225F. Press the temp pad a second time to show the actual meat probe temperature.

TIP: Based on how long you will be away from the grill, set your desired temperature 10 to 15 degrees below your liking, as

the food will continue to rise in temperature somewhat, as the grill cools, and idles at the lowest temperature. Ensure it is

inserted all the way into the plug, you will feel and hear it snap in place.

“SAVOR THE FLAVOR”

The digital control center will automatically cook your food until the “desired” food probe temperature is met. The control will
