WARNING
Only use this grill on a hard, level, non-combustible, stable surface (concrete, ground, etc.) capable of
supporting the weight of the grill. Never use on wooden or other surfaces that could burn.
DO NOT use grill without charcoal ash tray in place. DO NOT attempt to remove charcoal ash tray while coals
are hot.
When grill is in use, keep clearance of 36” between the hot grill and any combustible materials, such as
bushes, trees, wooden decks, wooden fences, buildings, etc. Do not place hot grill under roof overhang or in
any other enclosed area.
For outdoor use only. Do not operate grill indoors or in an enclosed area because of carbon monoxide
poisoning can lead to death.
For household use only. Do not use this grill for other than its intended purpose.
We recommend the use of a Charcoal chimney starter to avoid the dangers associated with charcoal lighting
fluid. If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, only use lighting fluid approved for lighting charcoal. Carefully
read manufacturer’s warnings and instructions on the charcoal lighting fluid and charcoal prior to the use of
their product. Store charcoal lighting fluid safely away from grill.
When using charcoal lighting fluid, allow charcoal to burn with grill lid and doors 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.
Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or similar products could
cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm coals as flashback may occur causing severe burns.
Place grill in an area where children and pets cannot come into contact with unit. Close supervision is
necessary when grill is in use.
Do not leave grill unattended when in use.
Do not store or use grill near gasoline or other flammable liquids, gases or where flammable vapors may be
present.
Do not store lighter fluid or other flammable liquids or materials under the grill.
Use caution when adjusting charcoal grate height, Use an oven mitt. Handle will be hot when in use.
Never raise or lower charcoal grate when water is smoking as hot water may splash on to coals creating a
burst of hot steam and coals.
Fires should be started in both charcoal chambers at the same time. If attempting to start charcoal in the
second charcoal chamber after the first charcoal chamber has already been lit, use the charcoal chimney
starting method. Do not use lighter fluid because heat from the burning charcoal could ignite the fluid, causing
a flash fire.
Use only a high grade plain charcoal or charcoal / wood mixture.
When adding charcoal and / or wood, use extreme caution and follow instructions in “Adding Charcoal / Wood
During Cooking” section of this manual.
