Operating Instructions

1. Preparing the Grill

• Place the grill on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials.
• Open the air vent on the side of the grill body to allow for airflow.
• Arrange charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal on the charcoal grate. Do not overfill.

2. Lighting the Charcoal

• Use a charcoal chimney starter or approved charcoal lighter fluid (follow lighter fluid instructions carefully).
• Allow charcoal to burn until covered with a light gray ash (approximately 15-20 minutes).

3. Grilling

• Once charcoal is ready, carefully place the cooking grate onto the grill.
• Place food on the cooking grate.
• Use the lid to control heat and smoke. Closing the lid helps retain heat and cook food more evenly.
• Adjust the side air vent to control temperature: open for more heat, close for less heat.

4. After Grilling

• Allow the grill to cool completely before handling or cleaning.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Cooking Grate: After each use, once cooled, scrape off any food residue with a grill brush. Wash with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly.
• Grill Body and Lid: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish.
• Ash Removal: Once the grill is completely cool, remove the charcoal grate and dispose of cooled ashes safely.

Storage

• Store the grill in a dry, covered area to protect it from the elements.
• Ensure the grill is clean and dry before storing to prevent rust.
