18
Useful Tips and Recommendations:
•
Schedule cooking in the FUSION 18; approximately 4 to 6 hours is needed before an ideal bed of
embers is produced from the load.
•
Cook with indirect heat (convection); move the coals along the walls of the firebox.
•
Keep the door closed while cooking.
•
Use the left handle of the Combustion Air Control, the Activator, (Section 2.3) to regulate the
temperature of the unit while cooking. To avoid flare-ups, slide the Burn Rate Selector to the right
(minimum setting) and pull the activator towards you if it hasn’t already been retracted.
•
Cook fish on a cedar plank.
•
Greasy food may cause smoking.
4.7 Barbecue Grill
The FUSION 18 insert comes with a removable swiveling barbecue grill. When operating the FUSION 18, the
barbecue grill should be leaning against the rear wall of the firebox, in the upright position. The grill swivels to
the horizontal position above the bed of embers for cooking purposes. The barbecue grill is removable by lifting
the hinge and pulling forward.
Do not use the FUSION 18 insert as a primary cooking appliance. This feature is designed for occasional
grilling during the winter and cooking during power failures. Foods that are commonly grilled in a conventional
barbecue can be cooked in the FUSION 18 insert. The intense heat from the next combustion cycle cleans the
grill and the unit of any cooking residue.
