OUTR KAMADO MEDIUM 40 Instructions D'utilisation Et D'installation page 25

Lighting, use and safety
• Place the Kamado on a solid, flat, horizontal, heat-resistant and non-combustible surface,
away from any combustible objects.
• Make sure that the Kamado has at least 2 metres of top space and is at least 2 metres away
from other objects.
• Light a fire by placing a rolled-up newspaper with some firelighters or solid fire cubes on the
charcoal plate (7) at the bottom of the Kamado. Then place 2 or 3 hands of charcoal on top of
the newspaper.
• DO NOT use gasoline, turpentine, benzene, alcohol or any other similar chemicals to light or
re-light the unit.
• Open the air vent at the bottom and light the newspaper with a long lighter or safety matches.
• Once the fire is lit, leave the bottom air hole and lid open for about 10 minutes to get a small
base of hot coals.
• Allow the charcoal to heat up and glow for at least 30 minutes before frying on the Kamado.
DO NOT fry before there is a layer of ash on the fuel.
• It is advised not to burn the coals or turn them once they are hot. This allows the coals to burn
more uniformly and efficiently.
• Once the fire is lit, ONLY use heat-resistant gloves when using hot ceramics or baking
surfaces.
• Below are firing instructions by temperature and duration.
Baking at low temperature
• Light the charcoal as per the instructions above. Do NOT move glowing charcoal.
• Open the bottom air vent fully and leave the lid open for about 5-10 minutes to get a small base
of hot coals.
• Control the temperature until the desired temperature is reached. See page 5.
• Close the bottom air vent completely to keep the Kamado at temperature.
• You can now bake on the Kamado!
Important! When opening the lid at high temperatures, it is important to lift the lid only slightly
so that the air can enter slowly and safely and no backdrafts or flashng flames can occur that
could lead to injury.
ALWAYS use heat resistant gloves.
Baking at high temperature
• Proceed in the same way as for low temperature baking.
• Close the lid and open the air control at the top and bottom fully.
• Check the temperature until the desired temperature is reached. See page 5
• Close the upper air control for 1/2 and check the temperature for another few minutes.
• You can now bake on the Kamado!
Fuel filling
• With the air vents closed, the Kamado can stay at a high temperature for a few hours. If you
need more cooking time (e.g. when roasting a large piece of meat or slow smoking), you may
need to add more charcoal. Add this charcoal and proceed as indicated above.
