USE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

USING YOUR CHARCOAL GRILL
We recommend that you use lump charcoal and fire starters in your cooker for the best results. Never use lighter fluid. The chemicals in charcoal briquettes and lighter fluid may leave a lingering odor in your cooker.
Using Charcoal Grill

• Open the lid and remove the cooking grids and pile the charcoal on the charcoal tray. Do not build too large of a fire. We recommend starting a fire with a maximum of 3.5 pounds of charcoal and adding more as needed during cooking. Never fill charcoal above the upper level of the Tray.

• You can easily add charcoal or spread out your coals through access door while cooking. We recommend you wear flame retardant BBQ mitts to avoid hot surfaces.

• There are two Air Vents on both sides of the lid. You can adjust the Air Vents to control the flow of air into your grill. By controlling the flow of air, you can adjust the flame level in your grill. (Ex: Opening the Air Vents will allow you to build a bigger fire.)

• You can also use the crank handle to adjust the Charcoal Tray to different levels to control grilling temperature. Turn the crank either clockwise or counter-clockwise until the desired height is achieved.(Crank will stop when at top of travel)
  Allow grill to cool and clean the ash tray after each use.

• WARNING : When the charcoal grill is in use, the surfaces of the grill will be HOT.

Preparing Your Grill For Initial Use
Before cooking on your grill for the first time, you should burn off the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign material. Build a small fire on the Charcoal Tray. Close the lid and position the air vents approxi-mately one quarter open. This burn should be sustained for at least 30 minutes. Begin increasing the temperature by opening the air vent halfway and adding charcoal through the charcoal access door. Your charcoal grill is now ready for use.

Charcoal Grilling

• Always wear a flame retardant BBQ mitt when cooking on your grill or when adding charcoal to the Charcoal Tray. Charcoal is recommended, however wood or a combination of wood and charcoal could be used as a fuel.
• Remove the Cooking Grids when starting the fire (see Using Charcoal). Start fire on the charcoal. Every once for a while add some charcoal accordingly to sustain the fire. Use flame retardant BBQ mitts when replacing the Cooking Grids.
• Adjust the air vents to regulate the temperature (open the vents to get a highter flame, and gradually close the air vents to lower the flame).
• Adjust the height of the Charcoal Tray by moving the crank up or down.
• By adjusting the height of the Charcoal Tray, you can control how close the heat is to your food. Placing the Charcoal Tray at the highest position is ideal for searing. Placing the Charcoal Tray at lower positions allows you to roast or smoke your food.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning procedures on a timely basis and your grill will stay clean and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION : Make sure coals are completely extinguished and the grill is cool before cleaning.

Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces
Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless steel can also cause this tanning color. Before initial use, use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to polish the stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use a stiff wire brush, brass brush or abrasive cleaners beause they will scratch the stainless steel surface of your grill.

Cleaning The Cooking Grids
Before initial use, and periodically, wash your Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or vegetable brush to clean your Cooking Grids. Then coat both sides of the Cooking Grids with a light coat of vegetable oil.

Cleaning The Grease/Ash Tray
To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease/Ash Tray should be visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any grease and ash, then wash Grease/Ash Tray with a mild soap and warm water solution.
NOTE : To remove the Grease/Ash Tray, please to raise the Charcoal Tray.

Cleaning The Inside of The Grill Lid
Grease can have a tendency to build up on the inside of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or patio when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the inside of the Grill Lid and bowl before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm water. Never use a stiff wire brush, brass brush, or abrasive cleaners because they will scratch the stainless steel or cause it to rust.

Cleaning of The Grill Interior

• Frequency of clean up is determined by how often the grill is used. However, at least every 3 months you must give the entire gill a thorough cleaning to minimize your risk of fire and keep the grill in top shape. Follow these steps:
• Make sure coals are completely extinguished and the grill is cool before cleaning.
• Remove and clean the Cooking Grids and Grease/Ash Tray following the instructions provided above.
• Clean the inside of the grill lid as described above. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
• Remove charcoal and food remnants from Charcoal Tray. Clean the Tray with a fiber pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
