Care Instructions
Follow these instructions to maintain the appearance and life of
this BBQ.
• It is not advisable to completely fill the fire bowl as the
barbecue may become far too hot to cook successfully.
• Line the fire bowl with aluminum cooking foil, shiny side up,
to make it easier to clean your barbecue after use.
Leave ventilation holes clear by piercing the foil where
necessary. This process will lengthen the life of your barbcue
and reflect the heat more efficiently on to the food.
• To clean your grill, soak the cooking grill and tools in hot
soapy water when the barbecue is completely cool as soon
as possible after use.
• When you have finished cooking, never pour cold water
directly on the coals to extinguish them as this may damage
your grill. Use old cinders, sand or a fine water spray.
• Store in a cool dry place. Ensure it is clean and dry
thoroughly.
It must be thoroughly cleaned of all ash and unused
fuel/coals before storage. (See Warnings)
CAUTION!
To help avoid injury or damage to property, it is
vitally important that you clean and maintain your barbecue
after every use. Please note that you should inspect your
barbecue before every use - the barbecue should be clean and
in good working order.
Please note that this appliance will not last forever and will
begin to degrade with use over time. It is very important that
you replace your barbecue as and when it begins to show signs
of fatigue, corrosion or damage. Please note: Continuing to
use an appliance which is damaged could cause injury or
damage to property.
• Protect from severe weather conditions.
We recommend you use a BBQ cover to protect this item
when not in use. BBQ must be cooled before cover is added.
Covers must be removed periodically to minimize moisture
build up and damage to the BBQ, as most covers are not
breathable.

Instructions for use
Barbecue should be heated up and the fuel kept red hot for at
least 30 min prior to the first cooking on the barbecue.
Method 1 - Charcoal & Lighting Fluid/Gel Follow Charcoal &
Lighting Fluid/Gel product instructions and warnings.
(not included)
• Set up your barbecue in a safe place with sufficient space and
make sure the barbecue is installed on a secure level base.
Place enough charcoal in the bowl to a depth of 3-5 cm.
•
CAUTION:
Carefully apply lighting fluid/gel in small amounts
over the charcoal. Over application can be dangerous.
•
DO NOT
spill any lighting fluid/gel onto your hands or clothes.
• Wait for 30 seconds to allow the liquid to soak into
the charcoal before lighting.
•
DO NOT
light the charcoal if you have spilt fluid or gel onto
your clothes. Light the charcoal using a long taper or safety
lighter.
•
DO NOT
squirt liquid onto burning charcoal.
Method 2 - Lighting Blocks Follow lighting block product
instructions and warnings.
(not included)
• Place three or four Lighting Blocks in the centre of the
barbecue fire bowl and light with a match.
• Place pieces of charcoal around each burning block.
Add more charcoal as required, in a pyramid formation.
• When burning is established, spread the fuel out evenly. The
fire should be ready for cooking when even white ash or an
even red glow is visible.
•
DO NOT
cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
• Ensure that the cooking grill is fully located into the grill
supports.
When the charcoal is alight, the smoke and flames have died
down and the charcoal has an even layer of grey ash, rake
the charcoal into a level layer in the hearth.
Small quantities of charcoal may be added on top of the
charcoal layer prior to cooking to extend cooking time.
To help prevent food sticking, apply a thin coating of cooking
oil on the grill prior to cooking.
To adjust the airflow using the air vent we recommend to
use of a heat resistant glove.
ALWAYS WEAR OVEN GLOVES WHEN HANDLING THE
CHARCOAL BBQ.
