Operation

Getting Started

Attach Temperature Controller1) Plug the temperature controller into the grill by pushing it straight onto the mounting bracket (A). Do not force the temperature controller into the mounting bracket. Ensure that the heating element pins are aligned with the temperature controller for proper attachment (B).2) Route the power cable under the right handle and secure it in the cable clips. (C).3) Make sure that the red power button located on the right side of the temperature controller is in the OFF position.4) Plug the power cable into a grounded socket.

Preheat the GrillPreheating the grill is critical to successful barbecuing. Preheating helps to prevent food from sticking to the cooking grate and gets the cooking grate hot enough to sear properly. It also burns off the residue of a previously cooked meal.

  1. Push the red power button located on the right side of the temperature controller to turn ON the grill (D).
  2. Turn the temperature control knob(s) to the high position by turning them clockwise. The digital LED screen will display the temperature of the grill.
  3. Preheat the grill with the control knob(s) in the high position (E). The red status indicator lights will flash to indicate that the grill is preheating and the temperature display will increase as the grill heats up. When the selected temperature setting is reached, the temperature controller will beep momentarily. The status indicator lights will stop flashing and remain lit. When the temperature registers 500°F (260°C) the grill is preheated. This will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes depending on ambient conditions.
  4. To grill at a lower temperature: Preheat as outlined above. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to the desired setting. Start barbecuing.Reference the grilling guides in the WEBER CONNECT app for approximate grilling times and settings for the cuts of meats listed (adjust for conditions).

Ambient Conditions

Grilling in a colder climate or at a higher altitude will extend your cooking time. Sustained wind will lower the grill’s internal temperature. Place grill so the wind blows against the front of the grill.

Perform an Initial Burn-OffHeat the grill on the highest setting, with the lid closed, for at least twenty minutes prior to grilling for the very first time.

WARNING Use heat-resistant grill mitts or gloves when operating the grill. Should a grease fire occur, close the lid, turn the power button off, unplug the grill from the socket and leave the lid closed until the fire is extinguished. Do not use liquid to extinguish flames.

Connecting Your Grill To Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi Network 

To connect your WEBER PULSE grill via Bluetooth® or to your local Wi-Fi network, follow these steps:NOTE: WEBER recommends that your smart device be running the latest version of its operating system before attempting to connect your grill to Bluetooth® or your Wi-Fi network.

  1. Push the red power button located on the right side of the temperature controller to turn ON the grill.
  2. Verify that your smart device is connected to Bluetooth® or your local Wi-Fi network.
  3. From your smart device, download the new WEBER CONNECT app from the App Store on Apple devices or the Play Store on Android devices.
  4. Open the WEBER CONNECT app and follow the in-app instructions for connecting to your PULSE grill.

NOTE: In order to successfully connect your smart device to your grill via a local Wi-Fi network, first make sure your grill is paired via Bluetooth® and that your grill is within range of your Wi-Fi router. If your attempts to connect have been unsuccessful, try moving the grill within range of the Wi-Fi router or adding a signal extender for a stronger signal.

Probe UsageThe colored probe indicators are for visual identification of the probe(s) within the app.

  • To ensure an accurate reading, please insert the probe a minimum depth of 0.4 inches (10 mm) into the center of the meat (H). For poultry, it’s best to place the probe in the thickest part of the thigh or breast, avoiding the bone. For thick cuts of flat meat, insert the probe into the middle of the meat from the top or the sides.

To ensure safe usage of the meat probe and to prevent damage to the probe:

  • Do not expose the probe or its wiring to direct contact with the cooking grate.
  • Route food probe cables through the side channel on the grill to ensure that the grill lid closes.
  • Do not submerge the probe or its wiring in liquid.
  • The probe is not dishwasher safe.

Important Note: When using a probe, be sure to route the wire where it will not be exposed to flames or temperatures exceeding 715° F (380° C). Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -22° F (-30° C). Temperatures below -22° F (-30° C) or above 572° F (300° C) will not display in the app and will cause the probe to disappear from the connection.

Cool DownWhen finished grilling, turn control knob(s) off, unplug the power cable and allow the temperature controller to cool. Remove the temperature controller and store it indoors in the storage box when not in use.

WARNINGRisk of injury! The probes are very sharp. Please be careful when handling probes.Risk of burns! Handling the food probes without hand protection will result in severe burns. The colored probe indicators are not intended to be touched with bare hands while using the grill as they are not heat-insulated. Please wear heat-resistant gloves at all times while using this product in order to avoid being burned.

Meal-to-Meal MaintenanceKeep it CleanAccumulated dirt and grease may reduce grill performance. Factors such as altitude, wind, and outside temperature can affect cooking times.Check for GreaseYour grill was built with a grease management system that funnels grease away from food and into a disposable container. As you cook, grease is channeled down to the slide-out catch pan and into a disposable drip pan that lines the catch pan. This system should be cleaned each and every time you grill in order to prevent fires.

  1. Confirm that the grill is off and cool.
  2. Unplug and remove the temperature controller by pulling it side-to-side slightly until it releases from the mounting bracket (A).
  3. Remove the slide-out catch pan by pulling it forward (B).
  4. Check for grease in the disposable drip pan that lines the slide-out catch pan. Discard disposable drip pan when necessary and replace it with a new one.
  5. Reinstall all components.

Clean the Cooking GrateAfter preheating, any bits of food or debris left over from a previous use will be easier to remove. Clean cooking grates will also prevent your next meal from sticking.

  1. Brush the cooking grates with a stainless steel bristle grill brush immediately after preheating (C).

Cleaning the Temperature ControllerWipe down the temperature controller with a microfiber cloth dampened with water. Do not use cleaners or brushes as they will scratch the surface. Never use glass cleaners on plastic. It will damage the surface.Storing the Temperature ControllerAllow the temperature controller and probes to cool before wiping them clean. Store the temperature controller and food probes indoors in the storage box provided (D).

WARNING The grill should be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis. Do not line the slide-out catch pan or any part of the grill with aluminum foil. Use caution when removing the catch pan and disposing of hot grease. Check the slide-out catch pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire.  Grill brushes should be checked for loose bristles and excessive wear on a regular basis. Replace brush if any loose bristles are found on cooking grates or brush. WEBERrecommends purchasing a new stainless steel bristle grill brush at the beginning of every spring.

CAUTION Temperature controller should be removed from grill and stored in the box and indoors when grill is not in use – out of the reach of children.

Food Probe CareCleaning the Food ProbeClean probe before first use. The probes should be cleaned by wiping them down with a damp cloth.The probes are not dishwasher safe. The probes are not waterproof and damage may result from water exposure. Never submerge the probes in water. Take care not to expose the wiring of the probes or the area where the probes’ wiring meets the probe to liquid.

Probe WrapNeatly wrap the probe when it is not in use.Store the probe in the storage box with the Temperature controller.

Searing SetupTurn the control knob(s) to the high setting and preheat the grill to 500°F (260°C). Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush. Adjust settings to the temperature noted in the recipe. Place food on cooking grates and close the lid of the grill. Turn your food only once during the grilling time. Lift the lid only to turn the food or check for the doneness at the end of the recommended grilling time.

Roasting SetupTurn the control knob(s) to the high setting and preheat the grill to 500°F (260°C). Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush. Reduce heat by turning control knob(s) to medium. Place large foods, such as whole chickens or roasts, horizontally in the center of the grill.

Dual Zone GrillingTurn the control knobs to the high setting and preheat the grill to 500°F (260°C).Adjust the temperature of each control knob to the preferred setting for each zone. Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.If you are grilling one item for longer than the other, it is recommended that you adjust both control knobs to the preferred temperature of the first item to be grilled and place the item on the left side of the grill. Ten minutes prior to adding the second item, adjust the temperature of the right control knob to the preferred cooking temperature and allow the temperature in the area to adjust. Please note that the temperature controller will display the average temperature inside of the grill and not the individual zones.Turn your food only once during the grilling time. Lift the lid only to turn the food or check for the doneness at the end of the recommended grilling time.

PULSE Grill Temperature Range:LOW between 200° and 300°F (93° – 149°C)MEDIUM between 350° and 450°F (176° – 232°C)HIGH between 500° and 600°F (260° – 316°C)

WARNING To avoid overheating, the appliance must not be covered by any solid or flexible material such as an aluminum tray, aluminum foil or trays made of other heat resistant material. Any item must be placed centrally on the grill to allow sufficient ventilation. Larger coverage with such items or materials on the grate would impair the safety of the product and could lead to serious damage.

Tips and Hints

Grilling Do’s and Don’tsPreheat grill each and every time.If the cooking grates are not hot enough, the food will stick and you will likely never have a chance of searing your food properly or developing those handsome sear marks.  Even if a recipe calls for medium or low heat, always preheat the grill on the highest setting first.Don’t grill on dirty grates. Placing food onto the cooking grates before they have been cleaned is never a  good idea. Leftover residue on the grates acts like glue, binding it to the grates and to your food.  To avoid tasting last night’s dinner on today’s lunch, make sure that you are barbecuing on a clean cooking grate. Once the grates are preheated, use a stainless steel bristle grill brush to make a clean, smooth surface.Be present in the process. Before starting your grill, make sure that everything you need is within your arm’s reach. Don’t forget your essential barbecuing tools, such as oiled and seasoned food, glazes or sauces and clean cooking platters for the cooked food. Having to run back to your kitchen not only means missing out on the fun, but it could also result in burning your food.  French chefs call this ‘mise en place’ (meaning, ‘put in place’). We call it ‘being present.

Create a little elbow room.Packing too much food onto the cooking grates restricts your flexibility. Leave at least one-quarter of the cooking grates clear with plenty of space between each food item in order to get your tongs in there and easily move the food around. Sometimes barbecuing involves split-second decisions and the need to move food from one area of the grill to another. So give yourself enough room to grill.Try not to peek.The lid on your grill is for more than just keeping the rain out. Most importantly, it’s for preventing too much air from getting in and too much heat and smoke from getting out.  When the lid is closed, the cooking grates are hotter, the cooking times are faster and the smoky tastes are stronger. Use the WEBER CONNECT app to quickly monitor the heat of your grill and the core temperatures of your food so that you don’t need to open the grill until it’s time for dinner. So put a lid on your grill!Only flip once.What’s better than a juicy steak with a deep sear and plenty of beautifully caramelized bits?The key to accomplishing these results is to keep your food in the place. Sometimes we have the tendency to flip our food before it reaches the desired level of color and flavor. In nearly all cases, you should turn food just once. If you are moving it more than that, you are probably also opening the lid too often which causes its own set of problems. So  tep back and trust the grill.

Product Care

Deep Cleaning and MaintenanceCLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE GRILLOver time, the performance of your grill can diminish if it has not been maintained properly.Low temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking to cooking grates are all signs that cleaning and maintenance are overdue. When your grill is off and cool, start by cleaning the inside from the top down.A thorough cleaning is recommended after every five cooks. Consistent use may require more frequent cleanings.Cleaning the LidFrom time to time you may notice ‘paint-like flakes on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke vapors slowly change into carbon and deposit on the inside of your grill’s lid. These deposits will eventually peel and look very similar to paint. These deposits are non-toxic, but the flakes could fall onto your food if you do not clean the lid regularly.

  1. Use a plastic scraper to remove carbonized grease from inside the lid (A).

Cleaning the Bowl Liner and Cook box

Look inside the cook box for any grease accumulation or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can cause a fire.It is recommended to use gloves when removing heating elements as they will be dirty.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE GRILLThe outside of your grill may include aluminum, stainless steel and plastic surfaces.WEBER recommends the following methods based on the surface type:Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces Clean stainless steel using a grease-cutting soap. Use a microfibre cloth to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. Rinse with clear water and dry thoroughly. Do not use paper towels. Do not use bleach or chlorinated cleaning products on stainless steel.Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They will change the color of the metal by removing the top chromium oxide film coating.Cleaning Painted Surfaces and Plastic ComponentsClean painted and plastic components with grease-cutting soap.Rinse with clear water and dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in Unique EnvironmentsIf your grill is subject to a particularly harsh environment, you will want to clean the outside more often. Acid rain, pool chemicals and salt water can cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the outside of your grill with warm soapy water. Follow up with a rinse and thorough drying. Additionally, for stainless steel parts only, you may want to apply a stainless steel polish cleaner weekly to prevent surface rust.

WARNING Turn your grill off and wait for it to cool before thoroughly cleaning it. Do not spray liquid on the heating element or controller. Do not immerse in water when cleaning.CAUTION Disconnect the appliance from the supply circuit and remove the temperature controller before performing cleaning and maintenance.Do not use any of the following to clean your grill: abrasive stainless steel polishes or paints, cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits, or xylene, oven cleaner, abrasive cleaners (kitchen cleaners), or abrasive cleaning pads. Do not use metal brushes to clean heating elements. Allow food to burn off during preheating.

ELECTRIC GRILL DOES NOT TURN ONSYMPTOM

  • The heating element does not heat when following the instructions in the ‘Operation’ section of this Owner’s Manual.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The temperature controller may not be properly inserted into the housing. Remove and reinstall the temperature controller.Always plug the temperature controller into the grill before plugging the power cable into the socket.
There is a problem with the power flowing from the socket. Check the electrical power supply.
The GFI safety device that is built-in to the temperaturecontroller may have interrupted the power to the grill. If the digital thermometer display and the temperature status indicator light(s) are not on, move the red power button on the temperature controller to the OFF position in order to ‘reset’ the GFI safety device.  Wait 30 seconds, then move the red power button to the ON position.

ERROR CODE APPEARS ON DISPLAYSYMPTOM

  • During start-up or barbecuing, an error code appears on the digital display.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The temperature controller is a device that is sensitive to certain external factors. Variations in the power supply or radiofrequency may affect operation. First, turn the temperature controller off using the red power button.  Unplug the power cable from the power outlet and remove the  temperature controller from the grill.Wait 30 seconds, then attach the temperature controller fully onto the  grill before plugging the power cable into the outlet. Move the red  power button to the ON position.

ELECTRIC GRILL IS EXPERIENCING CONNECTIVITY ISSUESSYMPTOM

  • Wi-Fi is having trouble maintaining connectivity with a Wi-Fi network.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The grill is out of range of the Wi-Fi network signal. In order to successfully connect your smart device to your local Wi-Fi network, your grill must be within range of your Wi-Fi router. If your attempts to connect have been unsuccessful, try moving the grill within range of the Wi-Fi router or adding a signal extender for a stronger signal.

SYMPTOM

  • Bluetooth® is having trouble maintaining connectivity or pairing with a smart device.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Bluetooth® is a short-range signal only. When the temperature controller is on, it is ready to pair. Make sure that  Bluetooth® on the smart device is turned on and that the device is near the grill.
Bluetooth® has already been paired to another smart device. If the Bluetooth® indicator light is on but is not flashing, it means that it is already paired to a smart device. Turn off Bluetooth® on any smart device that you do not wish to have paired to the grill.
