What this exact manual documents

ErP

Grill-probe error

Manual meaning
The manual identifies a grill probe (sensor) that is not working or is faulty.
Safe first move
Let the grill cool and disconnect power before following the model manual’s accessible probe check. Do not transfer PB260PSP2’s ErP shutdown or power-outage meaning to this controller.
Diagnose the cooker probe
ErH

Overheat error

Manual meaning
The manual identifies an overheated unit, possibly due to a grease fire or excess fuel.
Safe first move
Use the documented shutdown, let the grill cool, then complete maintenance and component-position checks before restarting.
Use the fire-pot safety path
ErL

Start-up or flame-stability error

Manual meaning
The grill fails to perform its start-up cycle, will not stay lit, or has not had its auger primed.
Safe first move
Once cool and unplugged, check component placement, fuel, feed obstruction, grill-probe condition, igniter position, and fan behavior through the model manual before another start.
Work through the ignition path
Pellet error screen

Fuel or feed alert

Manual meaning
The manual identifies lack of fuel or poor fuel quality, including a possible feed obstruction.
Safe first move
After cooling, check hopper level and remove damp or poor-quality pellets before treating the auger or controller as the cause.
Trace the pellet path
Igniter error screen

Igniter function or connection alert

Manual meaning
The igniter is not working properly, is not making a connection, or has failed.
Safe first move
Let the grill cool completely and use the manual’s check before considering a replacement. Do not order an igniter from this screen alone.
Check the ignition path first
Auger error screen

Auger feed or connection alert

Manual meaning
The auger motor is jammed or not making a connection.
Safe first move
Cool and unplug before touching the feed system. Confirm whether pellets are dropping into the burn pot before treating the motor as failed.
Diagnose the auger safely
Fan error screen

Fan function or connection alert

Manual meaning
The fan is not working properly or is not making a connection.
Safe first move
Cool and unplug before inspection. Use the model manual’s airflow and accessible-condition check rather than treating this as a universal fan diagnosis.
Trace the fan symptom safely
