Care
Operating instructions.
Use
Step 1
Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the grill with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray.
Do not coat charcoal grate, grids or charcoal ash tray.
Step 2
Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use charcoal and/or
wood as fuel in the grill (see “Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking” section of this
manual)
Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter fluid. Use only a high
grade plain charcoal or charcoal /wood mixture.
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer’s warnings & instructions
regarding the use of their product, start with 5 pounds (2.3 kg) of charcoal. When
charcoal is burning strong, carefully place hot coals in center of each charcoal grate.
DO NOT use grill without charcoal ash tray in place. DO NOT attempt to remove
charcoal ash tray while tray contains hot coals.
NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and wood do
not touch the walls of grill.
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 5.
If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, ONLY use charcoal lighting fluid approved
for lighting charcoal. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol or other flammable
material for lighting charcoal. Follow all manufacturer’s warnings and instructions
regarding the use of their product. Start with 8 to 10 pounds (3.6 to 4.5 kg) of charcoal.
This should be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing process has been
completed. Place the charcoal in the center of each charcoal grate.
Step 3
Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid. With lid open and charcoal grate completely
placed inside the grill, wait 2 to 3 minutes to allow lighting fluid to soak into charcoal.
Store charcoal lighting fluid a safe distance from the grill.
