ighting your grill
Is it the very first time? Perform a Burn-off
Add fuel to the grill and keep it red hot for 30 minutes with the lid and base vents fully open. It
is normal for the grill to emit an odor the first time it is lit. This odor is caused by the "burn-off"
of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again.
Use either the Charcoal Starter (not included) and follow the instructions included in the
manual, OR place lighter cubes or lightly crumpled newspaper on and around the air deflector.
Place the charcoal in a cone shaped pile in the center of the unit (direct cooking method), or
the optional charcoal baskets (indirect method). NOTE: Do not cook before the charcoal has a
coating of ash.
How to use the Charcoal Starter
1. See "Charcoal Starter Safe Operating Practices" for best practices on how to use
the Charcoal Starter in a safe manner.
2. Turn the Charcoal Starter upside down.
3. Crumple two full sheets of newspaper and stuff them into the bottom of the
Charcoal Starter.
4. Turn the Charcoal Starter right side up and place it in the center of the charcoal
grate.
5. Add appropriate amount of charcoal, but do not over fill.
6. Light a match and insert into one of the bottom air vents to ignite the newspaper.
7. Put on protective gloves (minimum thermal protection Class II, DIN EN 407).
When the top layer of charcoal has a light coating of gray ash, carefully pour the
hot charcoal onto the charcoal grate (direct cooking method), or place into the
charcoal baskets (indirect method).
8. Once the hot charcoal is placed into the grill, spread the charcoal out evenly
using tongs with long heat resistant handles.
WARNING! Do not lean over grill when lighting charcoal.
WARNING! Starter fluid can be used to light the charcoal, but it is not the preferred method. It can
be messy and may leave a chemical taste on the food if not completely burned off prior to cooking.
