Welcome to Kamado cooking! Our Vision Kamado is based on 3,000+ years 

of clay pot cooking from around the world. Over generations our ancestors 

have continued to refine Kamado techniques for grilling, smoking, baking 

and cooking all types of meats, poultry, fish and 

vegetables. Kamado cooking locks in moisture 

and provides a variety of ways to infuse different 

tastes into your foods that turns weekend grillers into neighborhood chefs.

Our Vision Kamado builds on this heritage with fresh aesthetics, safety 

and convenience features, easy-lift lid with spring assist and high quality 

materials to define a new industry standard for design and innovation. The 

thick ceramic construction of our grill provides superior thermal insulation 

allowing you to grill, cook, bake or smoke regardless of the season, from 

the hot summer days in our home town of St. Louis to the cold snowy days 

in Ottawa, Canada.

In this manual we provide the basics to get you cooking and invite you to our 

website, 

www.visiongrills.com

, where we share recipes, detailed Use & 

Care information and contact information if you need more help. From our 

entire team here at Vision Grills, thanks for your purchase and welcome to 

becoming the destination eatery in your neighborhood!

Cooking with your Kamado

Your new Vision Grills Kamado is the complete outdoor cooking appliance that allows you to 

sear, grill, bake and smoke all types of food. For best results, we recommend using natural 

lump charcoal made from hardwoods. Compared to briquettes, natural charcoals start faster, 

burn cleaner and longer, reach higher temperatures and produce less ash. Left-over natural 

charcoal also relights for re-use. Before re-starting the grill, knock off excess ashes to any 

remaining charcoal. Routinely empty ashes, but only empty ashes when grill is cold. 
Starting your Vision Kamado Grill is simple and fast: Open grill lid, open top and bottom vents 

wide open, fill the inner fire bowl with enough charcoal to just cover the air holes, then light 

the charcoal using either an electric starter or approved grill starters. After several coals are 

burning, spread evenly, close lid, adjust top and bottom vents, and wait for the Kamado to 

reach your desired cooking temperature. As needed, add more charcoal by using the flip grate 

feature, being careful not to burn yourself with the hot food or cooking grate.

WARNING

ATTENTION! Use caution when cooking, as grill surfaces get hot. To avoid burns, always use protective gloves 

to adjust top and bottom vents when grill is in use. Do not wear loose clothing near the grill.
ATTENTION! This barbecue will become very hot, do not move it during operation. For outdoor cooking use only. 

Do not operate grill indoors or in an enclosed space. Use grill only in well-ventilated areas. Keep immediate 

area around the grill free from combustible materials. Allow for at least 3 feet/1 meter of clearance around 

grill (house, other outdoor products, hanging tree limbs, shrubs, etc.)
WARNING! Keep children and pets away from the grill at all times.  
Do not allow children to operate grill. Never leave grill unattended when in use. 
Grill should be placed securely on a level base prior to use. Only operate grill on a hard, stable, level surface 

(concrete patio, ground, etc.) capable of supporting the weight of the grill when loaded with food. Never 

operate grill on wood support surface, wood deck or like combustible support surfaces. Never attempt 

to move grill when in operation or cooling down. Never operate this grill within 25 feet/7.5 meters of any 

flammable liquid. Never operate this grill within 10 feet/3 meters of a gas cylinder. The grill should not be 

placed under combustible structures, like garages, porches, patios, or carports.  Burning charcoal produces 

carbon monoxide, an odorless gas, which can cause death.
The use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs may impair the operator’s ability to properly 

assemble or safely operate the grill.  
Do not use on boats or recreational vehicles.
CAUTION: Never use lighter fluid, gasoline, or other volatiles to start your charcoal, as it is dangerous and 

will leave a residual taste in your food. NEVER use Charcoal Briquettes that contain starting chemicals or 

additives. Use only firelighters complying to EN 1860-3. Use utmost care when adding charcoal to grill. 

Dispose of cooled ash by placing it in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a non-combustible 

container. Always wait for grill to completely cool before opening built-in ash drawer. 
CAUTION:   WAIT FOR GRILL TO BE COMPLETELY COOLED BEFORE PLACING COVER ON GRILL. NEVER PLACE 

COVER ON GRILL THAT IS HOT OR WARM.
When cooking above 500ºF/260ºC, with both top and bottom vents closed, rapidly opening the lid creates a 

sudden rush of oxygen into the grill, which can cause a flare-up. When in this cooking mode, we recommend 

that, prior to opening the lid, you open top and bottom vents to allow oxygen to stabilize inside the grill, 

minimizing the possibility of a flare-up.

1.  When moving your grill please remember to make sure locking 

casters are in the unlocked position and always pull your grill. 

Never Push it. Pull from the Back Hinge. Not the Handle. Your 

grill is more likely to tip if you push it and it hits a bump or 

indention on the ground.

2.  Do not remove your Fire Bowl. Clean ash by brushing excess ash 

into ash drawer and removing. The purpose of the Fire Bowl is 

to hold your lump charcoal and will continue to work even if it is 

cracked. 

3.  Your Kamado Grill should be covered when not in use so as to 

protect all components.

Long-Term Maintenance

If using for outdoor kitchen, table, or enclosure a lava stone or paving stone 

must be placed between bottom of grill and resting surface. Do NOT rest 

ceramic grill body on wooden surface.
