OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
This grill has an adjustable charcoal tray. By turning the crank handle, the charcoal tray can be
raised or lowered to desired height. This allows for different heat settings depending on the food
you are cooking and the temperature you want to cook at. It also allows easy cleaning of the
interior of the firebox after the unit has cooled down completely. It is not recommended to raise a
fully loaded charcoal tray higher than the middle height setting.
NOTE:
The grate is coated with porcelain which is a fragile coating. Handle with care to avoid damage.
Do not cool the grate in cold water while it is still hot or the coating may crack. Let the grate
cool off by itself.
The barbecue shall be heated up and the fuel kept red hot for at least 30 min prior to the first
cooking.
Lighting the Fire
Open the hood of your CHARCOAL GRILL, as well as all of the butterfly dampers. Remove the
cooking grates. Add charcoal. Do not put more than 2.6kgs of charcoal briquettes into the pan.
Lower the adjustable charcoal pan to its lowest setting – use charcoal lighter fluid to start the fire,
following directions supplied by the manufacturer of the lighter fluid.
Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash, Starting to cook too soon can leave your food
tasting like lighter fluid.
After ash-over is complete, use long-handled tongs to spread the charcoal into a single layer on
the pan.
Chimney starters, electric starters, or other types of fire starters may be used instead of lighter
fluid to light the fire – but only according to those manufacturers' instructions. When using
charcoal lighting fluid, allow charcoal to burn with grill lid open until covered with a light ash
(approximately 20 minutes). This will allow charcoal lighting fluid to burn off. Failure to do this
could trap fumes from charcoal lighting fluid in grill and may result in a flash fire or explosion
when lid is opened.
