5.2 Step 1: Lighting the appliance
The main steps of this task are illustrated in Figures 1
through 3, on page 50.
1. Cover the bottom of the bowl with charcoal and add 3
firelighters. Tips:
• Do not use too much charcoal. The bowl should only be
filled one third.
• Use small pieces of charcoal to light the appliance. You
can add larger bricks afterwards.
2. Put the stainless steel spacer on the bowl and fix it with the
clips.
3. Open the air supply holes at the bottom of the bowl.
4. Take a long match and light the firelighters.
The barbecue shall be heated up and the fuel kept red for
at least 30 minutes prior to first cooking. This removes
any remaining manufacturing greases from the appliance.
Do not put the grill on the appliance yet. An empty grill
can deform when held in the heat for too long.
WARNING! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or
re-lighting! Use only firelighters complying to EN 1860-3!
5.3 Step 2: Placing the grill and food
The main steps of this task are illustrated in Figures 4
through 5, on page 50.
1. Put the grill on the appliance.
2. Do not cook before the fuel (charcoal) has a coating of ash.
Normally, this takes about 15 minutes.
3. Put your food on the grill.
6 USEFUL TIPS AND TRICKS
6.1 Adjusting the fire intensity
You can adjust the intensity of the fire by opening and closing
the air supply holes at the bottom of the bowl:
• The more you open the holes, the more air is sucked into
the bowl and the more intense the fire will be.
• The more you close the holes, the less air is sucked into the
bowl and the less intense the fire will be.
6.2 Preventing food from burning
To prevent your food from burning:
• Never start grilling when there still are flames in the bowl.
Wait until the charcoal is covered with a thin layer of white
ashes.
• Avoid exposing your food to excessive heat. You can reduce
the heat by (partially) closing the air supply holes at the
bottom of the bowl.
6.3 Preventing food from sticking
To prevent your food from sticking to the grill:
• Oil the food lightly with a brush before you put it on the grill.
You can also oil the grill itself.
• Do not turn the food too quickly. Let it catch some heat first.
