After lighting, charcoal should burn
completely for 30 minutes and until
a thin layer of ash is formed on top
of the charcoal before placing the
food on the grid. Do not cook before
the charcoal has a coating of ash.
After grilling the food, wait until
the glow is completely extinct and
all charcoal has burned and is no
longer hot.
After use, clean the grill and all tools.

and touch up the spot with rust- and
