    Not sure why you would need to manually fill the pot. How old is your unit?
    About 5 years old. I hear the auger going when I press the start button but the instructions that came with the smoker specifically said to clean out the ashes and load the firebox manually before starting. I usually use it for smoking rather than grilling anyway so guess I never thought about deviating from the instructions.

    They may have rewritten that. Going through my book and the online guides, I don't see that anywhere. Vacuum out the pot if the ash covers the igniter is all I see. I clean mine out before every cook, then press the button and go.

    Try it, I bet it works fine for you.
