How to use your charcoal kettle
Before light
Choose a proper location to grill
Only use this charcoal kettle in a well-ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway, or any other enclosed area.
Keep the charcoal kettle on a secure, level surface at all times.
Do not use charcoal kettle within five feet of any combustible material. Combustible
materials include, but are not limited to, wood or treated wood decks, patios, and
porches.
Preparing the charcoal kettle for lighting
1. Remove the lid and position it on the side of your charcoal kettle using either the lid
hook located on the inside of the lid.
2. Remove the cooking (top) grate from your charcoal kettle.
3. Remove the charcoal (bottom) grate and clear ashes or chunks of old charcoal from the
bottom of the bowl. Charcoal requires oxygen to burn, so be sure that nothing clogs the
vents.
4. Release the ash catcher, then dispose of the ashes.
5. Open bowl vent by moving the handle to the open position.
6. Replace charcoal (bottom) grate.
Lighting Charcoal

Cleaning
Follow a few basic maintenance instructions to keep your grill looking and grilling better for
years to come!
For proper air flow and better grilling, remove accumulated ashes and old charcoal from
the bottom of the kettle and the ash catcher before use. Make sure that all of the
charcoal is fully extinguished and the grill is cool before doing so.
You may notice "paint-like” flakes on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapors slowly oxidize into carton and deposit on the inside of your lid. Brush the
carbonized grease from the inside of the lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush. To
minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can be wiped with a paper towel after
cooking while the grill is still warm(not hot).
If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh environment, you will want to clean the
outside more often.Acid rain, chemicals and salt water can cause surface rusting to
appear. Megamaster recommends wiping down the outside of your grill with warm soapy
water. Follow up with a rinse and thorough drying.
Do not use sharp objects or abrasive cleaners to clean the surfaces of your grill.

Problem Solution
How do I add charcoal when
cooking? There are removable grate on two sides,open and add charcoal into the bowl,or turn to the other side,open and
add charcoal into the bowl.
How long to preheat the grill? Preheating your grill with the lid closed for 10 to 15 minutes
prepares the cooking grate.With all of the charcoal glowing
red,the temperature under the lid should reach 500°F
Oil the food,not the grate Oil prevents food form sticking and also adds flavor and
moisture.Lightly brushing or spraying the food with oil
works better than brushing the grate.
Before calling for service
If the charcoal kettle does not function properly, use the following check list before contacting
your dealer for service. You may save the cost of a service call.

and humidity, Do not leave your charcoal grill out in direct sunlight or rain exposure.

under the cover so check periodically to make sure it is not rusting.
Polishing or swiping the charcoal grill with baby oil will help prevent rust by forming a thin
protective layer on the steel.

you charcoal grill regularly for sings of rust.
