The coals supplied are rectangular in shape with rough torn edges.  It is important to use only that number 

of coals stated in these instructions and supplied. DO NOT pack 

THE COALS

 in tight but leave air gaps 

between the coals to allow flames to pass through the coal build.  
 

Note: 

Coal laying procedure is shown for the 16” Renaissance Hotbox/Inset. All other models should be laid in a 
similar fashion but allowing for the extra coals in each row to be accommodated on the wider models. (See 
table above) 
  
The coals should be laid as detailed in Fig nos.22-25, ensure that no coals are in such a position that they 
become unstable and fall off the fire bed. 
 
Hands should be washed after handling coals.
