Care and safe use guidelines

ABOUT YOUR KAMADO
Dating back 4000 years ago archaeologists have discovered large clay vessles thought to be early incarnations of the Kamado ceramic cooker. Since then it has evolved in many ways; removable lid, added draft door for better heat control and the switch from wood to charcoal as the primary fuel. In Japan the Mushikamado was a round clay pot with a removable domed lid designed for steaming rice. The name ‘Kamado’ is, in fact, the Japanese word for ’stove’ or ‘cooking range’. This name was adopted by the Americans and has now become a generic term for this style of ceramic cooker. Kamado cookers are extremely versatile. Not only can they be used for grilling or smoking but also pizzas, bread, pies and cookies can be baked effortlessly inside them. Due to their excellent heat retention properties, high temperatures can be achieved and maintained by precise contol of airflow via the top and bottom vents. High temperatures are ideal for fast cooking burgers and sausages whilst low heats will cook larger joints over a longer period of time. Why not try adding some wood chips to the charcoal or try combining different flavour wood chips to make your meats even more flavoursome.

WARNINGS – CAUTION!

Do not remove the grey felt packing from the base or the lid. This grey packing is used for sealing purposes and ensures that “false air” does not occur, which could interfere with the air circulation inside the Kamado Grill. Make sure that you regularly lubricate the bolts and hinges on the metal bands with a light machine oil, or WD40. The bolts must be checked regularly and tightened when necessary.

• This product is intended FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.

• NEVER leave a burning fire unattended.

•  DANGER of carbon monoxide poisoning – NEVER light this product or let it smoulder or cool down in confined spaces.

• DO NOT overload the unit with fuel.

• FIRE HAZARD – Hot embers may emit while in use.

• CAUTION – DO NOT use petrol, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other similar chemicals for lighting or relighting. Use only firelighters complying to EN1860-3!

• It is highly recommened that you use lump charcoal in your Kamado. It burns for longer and produces less ash which can restrict the airflow.

• IMPORTANT: When opening the lid at high temperatures it is essential to lift the lid only slightly, allowing air to enter slowly and safely, preventing any backdraft or flare-ups that may cause injury.

• ALWAYS follow the FOOD COOKING INFORMATION stated on page 27 of this instruction manual.

• DO NOT use the Kamado on decking or any other flammable surfaces such as dry grass, wood chips, leaves or decorative bark.

• Ensure that the Kamado is positioned at least 2 metres away from flammable items.

• DO NOT use this Kamado as a furnace.

• DO NOT handle or move the Kamado whilst alight as it will be hot.

• ALWAYS USE heat resistant gloves when handling hot ceramics or cooking surfaces.

• Allow the unit to cool down completely before moving or storing.

• ALWAYS keep children and pets at a safe distance from the oven when in use.
  

• Always inspect the unit prior to use for fatigue and damage and replace as and when necessary.

CURING THE KAMADO

• To start a fire place rolled up newspaper with some lighter cubes or solid firelighters on the charcoal plate (7) in the base of the Kamado. Then place 2 or 3 handfuls of lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
• DO NOT use petrol, 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 this could damage the Kamado.
• Leave until all the fuel is used and extinguished.
• If the first burns are too high it could damage the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance to mature properly.
• 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 spanner.
• 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 natuarally.
• DO NOT use water to extinguish the charcoals as this could damage the ceramic Kamado.

STORAGE

• When not in use, and if stored outside, cover the Kamado once completely cooled with suitable rain cover
• The chrome plated cooking grill is NOT dishwasher safe; use a mild detergent with warm water.
• When using the Kamado push down on both of the locking wheels to stop the unit moving about during use.
• It is recommended the Kamado be stored under cover in a garage or shed over winter for complete protection.

CLEANING

• The Kamado is self cleaning. Heat it up to 260ºC for 30 minutes and it will scorch off all of the 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, this could cause the Kamado to crack. If the soot becomes excessiv then use a wire brush or the supplied tool to scrape off the carbon remnants before the next use.
• To clean the grills and grates use a non-abrasive cleaner once the unit has fully cooled.
• To clean the outer surface wait until the Kamado is cool and use a damp cloth with a mild detergent.

MAINTENANCE

• Tighten the bands and oil the hinge 2 times a year or more if needed.

LIGHTING, USAGE AND CARE INFORMATION

• Ensure the Kamado is positioned on a permanent, flat, level, heat resistant non flammable surface away from flammable items.
• Ensure the Kamado has a minimum of 2m overhead clearance and has a minimum 2m clearance from other surrounding items
• To start a fire place rolled up newspaper with some lighter cubes or solid firelighters on the charcoal plate (7) in the base of the Kamado. Then place 2 or 3 handfuls of lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
• DO NOT use petrol, 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 lihter or safety matches. Once it has caught, leave the bottom vent and lid open for about 10 minutes to build a small bed of hot embers.
• Allow the charcoal to heat up and be kept red hot for at least 30 minutes prior to the first cooking on the Kamado. DO NOT cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.

• Always keep raw meat away from cooked meat and other foods.
• Before cooking ensure grill surfaces and tools are clean and free of old food residues.
• DO NOT use the same utensils to handle cooked and uncooked foods.
• Ensure all meat is cooked thoroughly before eating.
• CAUTION – eating raw or under cooked meat can cause food poisoning (e.g. bacteria strains such as E.coli).
• To reduce the risk of under cooked meat cut open to ensure it is cooked all the way through internally.
• CAUTION – if the meat has been cooked sufficiently the meat juices should be clear and there should be no traces of pink/red juice or meat colouring.
• Pre-cooking larger pieces of meat and joints is recommended before finally cooking on your grill.
• After cooking on your Kamado always clean the grill cooking surfaces and utensils

REFUELING

REPLACING THE FELT PACKING ON THE KAMADO GRILL

Depending on how you use the Kamado Grill, the felt packing around the lid and the base should be replaced from time to time. This prevents “false air” from occurring. Carefully carry out the following

Requirements:

• self adhesive felt packing
• open-ended spanner
• scraper and/or Stanley Knife
• pot scourer of abrasive pad
• acetone
• masking tape

1. Remove the adjustable cut-off or ceramic lid cap. Unscrew the nuts on the top tensioning band with the spanner, then next, carefully lift off the lid and lay it upside down onto a protective layer on the floor. Make sure that you do not drop the lid!
2. Unscrew the bottom tensioning band and leave the ceramic base standing in the housing or on the table.
3. Using the Stanley Knife or scraper, cut or scrape off as much of the existing felt packing as possible. Remove the remaining bits of felt and glue with the acetone an the action of an abrasive pad or pot scourer
4. Now you must wait for about one hour until the acetone has evaporated.
5. Carefully stick the new (self adhesive) felt packing to the edge of the base and the lid. Make sure that the seams are not at exactly the same place again and allow the felt to overlap slightly on the outside, which is better than on the inside (because it will burn when the grill is lit once again). Allow a little play when sticking down the felt packing (therefore not too tight or stretched), so when warming up the felt packing is able to shrink a little. Neatly cut the felt packing at the seam. It you are using adhesive in place of self adhesive tape, please do as follows: Apply the masking tape immediately under the edge of the base and the outside of the lid so that the adhesive does not stick to the Kamado Grill itself. Protect the inside of the grill with a piece of cardboard and then spray the edges with the adhesive. Follow the instruction for the adhesive and allow it to dry and then stick the felt packing onto the edges. Allow the glue to completely harden.
6. Reassemble the Kamado Grill. Place the tensioning band against the base and tighten the nuts. Carefully put the lid into the top tensioning band and tighten the nuts. Check whether the lid and the tensioning bands are straight and then give the nuts a final tighten.
