CURING THE KAMADO
To start a fire, place rolled-up newspaper and some lighter cubes or solid
firelighters on the charcoal plate (7), in the base of the Kamado. Then, place two
or three handfuls of lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
DO NOT
use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other similar chemicals for lighting
or relighting.Open the bottom vent and light the newpaper using a long- nosed lighter or
safety matches.
DO NOT
overload the unit with fuel. If the fire is too intense, the heat could damage the
Kamado. Burn until all the fuel is used and the fire is extinguished.If the first burns are too
hot, they could damage the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance to mature with use.
After first use, inspect all fasteners for tightness. The metal band connecting your lid to the
base will expand from the heat and this could become loose. It is recommended you check
and -- if neccessary -- tighten the band with a wrench.
You can now use your Kamado as normal.
EXTINGUISHING
To extinguish unit: stop adding fuel and close all the vents and the lid to allow the fire to die
naturally.
DO NOT
use water to extinguish the charcoal as this could damage the ceramic Kamado.
STORAGE
When not in use, and if stored outside, cover the Kamado once completely cooled with a
suitable rain cover.It is recommended the Kamado be stored under cover in a garage or shed
over winter for complete protection.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
The Kamado Grill is self-cleaning. Heat it up to 260ºC for 30 minutes and it will scorch off all
food and debris.
DO NOT
use water or any other types of cleaning product to clean the inside of your
Kamado. The walls are porous and will absorb any fluids used, which could cause the Kamado
to crack.
After the Kamado has cooled, if the soot becomes excessive, use the ash toolto scrape off the
carbon remnants before the next use. Carefully open the bottom vent and rake the soot into
a small waste container under the vent opening. Dispose of container, or store for future use
(soot).
To clean the grills and grates, use a non-abrasive cleaner once the unit has fully cooled. The
chrome-plated cooking grill is NOT dishwasher safe; use a mild detergent with warm water.
To clean the outer surface, wait until the Kamado is cool and use a damp cloth with a mild
