GRILLING
Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a
combination of both may be used as the fuel source for
grilling if the fuel source is placed and ignited on the
charcoal pan. Do not build too large a fire. We recommend
starting a fire with no more than 4 lbs. of charcoal
(approximately 60 briquettes) and adding more as needed
during cooking through the front access door. After
allowing the fire to burn down, place the cooking grates
or the skewers in the unit. Failure to read and follow
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious
personal injury and or property damage.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
Regularly clean your BLACKSTONE grill between uses

that the grill and its components are sufficiently cool
before cleaning. Never handle hot parts with unprotected
