SAfETY
follow these safety guidelines at all times:
1. ATTENTION! This barbecue grill will become very hot, do not move it
during operation.
2. Your Kamado Joe is designed for outdoor use only. Do not use indoors.
3. CAUTION! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or re-lighting
! Use only firelighters complying to EN 1860-3 !
4. WARNING! Keep children and pets away.
5. Never place your Kamado Joe Grill directly on a wooden deck or
table and cook with it. It may damage the surface or cause a fire.
Only use your grill in the provided cart or in one of our Grill
Tables.
6. Wait until the ashes are completely cool before removing them
from your grill and disposing of them.
7. Do not use gasoline or other combustible liquids to ignite the
100% Natural Lump Charcoal in your Kamado Joe Grill.
8. Never move your grill while it is hot or if there are hot ashes in it.
9. avoid “flashbacks” when cooking. If you operate your grill above
500°F, then deprive the fire of oxygen by closing the top and bottom
air vents, a sudden surge of flame called a “flashback” can occur if
you suddenly open the lid of the grill. This occurs because of the
sudden exposure to oxygen, which causes a brief but intense flame.
To prevent a flashback, open the lid about 1” for 2-3 seconds, then
you can open the lid fully.
