• CAUTION!
The Griddle and Fire Bowl becomes extremely hot when used. Protect your hands with
heat-resistant gloves or a cloth when you touch the hot Petromax Griddle and Fire Bowl.
• Never let the Griddle and Fire Bowl unattended while it is in use. Watch closely over children and
animals when they are close to the griddle bowl.
• If you want to use the Petromax Griddle and Fire Bowl over an open fire, only do so outdoors. Never
use the Griddle and Fire Bowl indoors.
Fire hazard and danger of suffocation!
Comply with fire
safety regulations. Show consideration to the plant and animal life and to nature reserves when
you start a fire outdoors.
• Make sure your Griddle and Fire Bowl is steady and stands safely on a fireproof ground.
• CAUTION!
Liquid fire lighter may be in danger to cause explosions. We, therefore, reccommend the
use of solid fire-lighters such as coal- or grill-lighters-, or wood chips.
• Make sure you have a means to extinguish the fire in case of emergency (water, sand, fire blanket,
fire extinguisher).
• Let the griddle bowl cool down entirely after use. Remove the ashes of the fire only once they have
cooled down. Dispose of the ashes properly. Never throw hot ashes in the household waste.
Before the first use as a Griddle Bowl
Ex works Griddle and Fire Bowl is coated with food-safe paraffin oil in order to prevent corrosion.
However, you must season your griddle bowl first before using it.
1. Add some high-temperature (e.g. clarified butter or coconut oil) on your Griddle and Fire Bowel to
cover its surface. Spread the grease over the whole surface, e.g. with a brush.
2. When the Griddle and Fire Bowl is hot, add 1-2 tbsp. of fine salt.
3. After a while, the surface of your Griddle and Fire Bowl changes colour and becomes dark in places
or entirely and the characteristic patina develops.
4. Empty the bowl and let it cool down. Wash the Griddle and Fire Bowl with hot water and carefully
remove the possible cooking remains. Then dry thoroughly and apply some grease.
5. The Petromax Griddle and Fire Bowl is now ready for use. After each use simply wash the griddle
bowl with hot water or wipe it with kitchen paper. As a protection against corrosion there should
always be a thin layer of grease. The seasoning process can be repeated as often as desired.
