IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• DO NOT bump or impact the grill to prevent personal harm, damage to grill or spillage/splashing of hot
cooking liquid.
• Be careful when removing food from grill. All surfaces are HOT and may cause burns. Use protective gloves/
mitts or long, sturdy cooking tools for protection from hot surfaces or splatter from cooking liquids.
• Do not touch HOT surfaces.
• Grill is HOT during use. To avoid burns, keep face and body away from vents and when opening lid. Steam
and hot air are expelled during use.
• When cooking above 350°F (175°C), carefully open the grill (or burp the grill) each time you lift the grill
dome to prevent flashback – a surge of white-hot heat caused by a rush of oxygen. Partially opening the lid
2-3 inches (5-8cm) and allowing heat to escape for about 5 seconds should prevent this.
• Hinges are HOT while the grill is in use and during cooling. Wear protective gloves when adjusting.
• Grill has an open flame. Keep hands, hair and face away from flame. Do NOT lean over grill when lighting.
Loose hair and clothing may catch fire.
• DO NOT obstruct flow of combustion and ventilation.
• Do not cover cooking racks with metal foil. This will trap heat and may cause damage to the grill.
• Never leave HOT coals or ashes unattended.
• Fuel should be kept red hot for at least 30 minutes prior to use.
• Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
• Do not remove ash drawer while ashes and charcoal are HOT.
• Use protective gloves when handling this grill or working with fire. Use protective gloves or long, sturdy
tools when adding wood or charcoal.
• Never use charcoal lighting fluid, gasoline, alcohol or other highly volatile fluids to ignite charcoal. These
fluids can explode and cause injury or death.
• Never overfill charcoal grate. This can cause serious injury as well as damage to the grill.
• Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a non-com-
bustible container.

QUICK START GUIDE
Only use premium hardwood lump charcoal to fuel your fire. Combustible liquids like starter fluid, etc. will
leave undesired flavors, damage your grill and create a fire hazard as they can absorb into the ceramic.
STARTING UP
1. Add charcoal to the charcoal basket.
2. Ignite the lump charcoal using a charcoal starter
3. Once the briquetts are igniteed insert the basket to the very back of oven and insert the door closed.
4. Open the bottom vent fully to allow airflow into the oven for 5 minutes..
5. Begin closing the vent when the temperature is within 50°F (10°C) of your target.
MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE
To lower the temperature, decrease the airflow through the grill by closing the vent. To raise the tempera-
ture open the vent to allow more airflow. Adjustments to the vent are not immediate—allow 10–15 minutes
for a vent change to take effect. Because your kamado retains heat so well, it can take some time to fully
heat. Give your grill 20–40 minutes to stabilize the temp before you start cooking.
COOLING DOWN YOUR KAMADO
1. When finished cooking, close the vent completely.
2. Do not cover the grill until the dome is cool to the touch.
3. It may take up to 24 hours for your grill to completely cool.
CAUTION
LIQUIDS Do not spill liquids inside or on the grill while it is hot.
SPARKS Be aware of sparks and embers when using the grill on a wooden deck.
DURING OPERATION Do not leave your grill unattended with the grill dome open.

CLEANING AND CARE
Keep your grill covered from elemental weather, utilizing the grill cover and keeping out of rain. Light cracked
porcelain calling crazing is natural and will occur on your ceramic. This will not affect the performance of your
grill.
SELF-CLEANING PROCEDURE: Like a self cleaning oven, you can effectively burn off stuck on food particles
and debris inside the kamado.
1. Add charcoal and light it.
2. Open the air vent fully and let the temperature inside the grill rise to 600°F (315°C).
3. Hold the temperature at around 600°F (315°C) for 15-20 minutes.
4. Close the vent fully and wait another 15-20 minutes.
This process will burn off any unwanted residue from the inside of your grill. Before cooking again, brush
the surface with a standard grill brush. Use a soft bristle brush on the ceramics to remove any residue. Y\
Once or twice a year, you should do a more thorough cleaning of the inside of the grill. Remove any residual
ash or debris that has collected between the grill body and the internal components. Use a plastic bristle
brush to clean the inside ceramic surface and scoop or vacuum debris from the back sides of the grill before
replacing the internal components.

This warranty extends through the manufacturer of the product, and covers functional parts only. Cosmetics are
not covered, unless unequivocally determined it is a workmanship defect. Shipping damage should be addressed
with the shipping company, retailer, or place of purchase, not the manufacturer unless the manufacturer was

placement parts for units deemed repairable by the supplier’s warranty department. The purchaser is respon-
sible for insuring any parts shipped or returned, if desired. The purchaser is responsible to prepay any shipping

the warranty period, or are conditions that can be the result of normal use, accident or improper mainte-
nance.
• Pet/consumer accidents
• Purchases from dealers unauthorized by the manufacturer (Authorization in writing)
The manufacturer takes every precaution to utilize materials that retard rust including the use of high tempera-
ture paint where advisable. Even with these safeguards, the protective coatings can be compromised by vari-
ous substances and conditions beyond our control. High temperatures, excessive humidity, chlorine, industrial
fumes, fertilizers, lawn pesticides and salt are some of the substances that can affect paint and metal coatings.
For these reasons, the limited warranties DO NOT COVER RUST OR OXIDATION.”
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any loss due to use (or misuse) of incidental or consequential costs, ex-
pense or damages without irrefutable foundations. Under no circumstances shall the manufacturer or any of its
representatives be held liable for injury to any person or damage to any property, however arising. Any implied
warranty shall have duration equal of the applicable warranty stated above. Specifications are subject to change
without notice or obligation.
This limited warranty gives the original purchaser specific legal rights. Other rights may vary from state to state.
