Operation
• Remove the cooking grids.
• Place a small quantity charcoal into the charcoal pan.
For best results, we recommend using natural lump charcoal made from
hardwood. Compared to briquettes, natural charcoals start faster, burn cleaner
and longer, reach higher temperatures and produce less ash. Left-over natural
charcoal also relights for re-use but ensure to knock off excess ash from the
charcoal first.
1. Light charcoal with an electric starter or approved BBQ starters.
Do not use lighter fluids. Liquid chemicals are a fire hazard and will impact an
undesirable taste to food.
2. Let the charcoal burn until red on the surface.
3. Now add more charcoal. Maximum charcoal quantity: 1.8kg. Ensure the charcoal does not exceed half
the height between the cooking grid and the bottom of the charcoal pan.
4. Re-locate the cooking grids and wait for at least 30 minutes before first time cooking.
Do not cook before the charcoal has a coating of ash.
5. Lay food on the grids to start cooking.
Tips on food safety and grilling
• Thoroughly defrost frozen meat and poultry in the refrigerator before cooking. Keep raw meat and
poultry away from cooked food.
• Always wash hands after handling raw meat and poultry, and before handling any ready-to-eat food.
• Wipe and disinfect surfaces that have been in contact with raw meat and poultry.
• When barbecuing meat and poultry, make sure the barbecue is really hot. Place the larger, thicker
portions furthest away from the most intense heat to ensure thorough cooking without burning and
turning frequently.
• Use separate utensils for handling raw meat/poultry and cooked food on the barbecue, or wash them
thoroughly between uses.
• To check whether meat, particularly poultry is cooked thoroughly, pierce the flesh with a skewer or
fork; the juices should run clear.
Cleaning, care & maintenance
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses, especially after extended periods of
•
storage.
Ensure the barbecue and its components are sufficiently cool before cleaning, care &
•
maintenance, and storage. Never clean the barbecue surfaces with water while still hot.
