OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PLACE THE GRILL OUTDOORS ON A HARD, LEVEL, NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE AWAY FROM
ROOF OVERHANG OR ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL. NEVER USE ON WOODEN OR OTHER SURFACES THAT COULD
BURN. PLACE THE GRILL AWAY FROM OPEN WINDOWS OR DOORS TO PREVENT SMOKE FROM ENTERING YOUR
HOUSE. IN WINDY WEATHER, PLACE THE GRILL IN AN OUTDOOR AREA THAT IS PROTECTED FROM THE WIND.
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS & INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE ASSEMBLING AND OPERATING YOUR GRILL.
1. A drip pan/ash guard, or its equivalent should be placed under the
grill to catch any ashes, embers or drippings.
2. Remove the cooking grill.
3. If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer’s
warnings and instructions regarding the use of their product.
Carefully place 4-5 pounds of charcoal in the charcoal pan.
Proceed to Step 6.
If using charcoal lighting fluid, use lighting fluid approved for
lighting charcoal ONLY. Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol
for lighting charcoal. Heap 4-5 pounds of charcoal in center of
grill.
4. Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid and wait 2 to 3 minutes for
fluid to soak in. Store charcoal lighting fluid safely away from grill.
5. Carefully light the charcoal and allow charcoal to burn until
covered with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes). This will
allow charcoal lighting fluid to burn off.
6. With charcoal burning well, carefully rake briquettes evenly below
the cooking area.
WARNING:
The grill will be very hot and caution must be used
when working in or around the grill. Wear oven mitts to
protect your hands from burns.
7. Set cooking grill on charcoal pan. Place food on the cooking grill in
a single layer with space between each piece and allow to cook.

the “After-Use Safety and Proper Care & Maintenance” sections of
this manual.
