WARNING
Place the grill outdoors on a hard, level, non-combustible surface away from roof overhang or any
combustible material. Never use on wooden or other surfaces that could burn. Place the grill away from open
windows or doors to prevent smoke from entering your house. In windy weather, place the grill in an outdoor
area that is protected from the wind.

PREPARATION FOR USE & LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Prior to your first use of the Grill, follow the instructions below carefully to cure your
grill. Curing your grill will minimize damage to the exterior finish as well as get rid of the
grill paint odor that can cause unnatural flavors to the first meal prepared on the grill.
IMPORTANT: To protect your grill from excessive rust, the unit must be
properly cured and covered at all times when not in use.
Step 1
Lightly coat all interior surfaces of the grill with vegetable oil or vegetable oil spray.
Do not coat charcoal grate, grids or charcoal ash tray.
Step 2
Follow the instructions below carefully to build a fire. You may use charcoal and/or
wood as fuel in the grill (see “Adding Charcoal/Wood During Cooking” section of
this manual)
Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighter fluid. Use only a high
grade plain charcoal or charcoal /wood mixture.
If using a Charcoal Chimney Starter, follow all manufacturer’s warnings and instructions
regarding the use of their product. Start with 5 pounds (2.3kg) of charcoal. This should
be enough charcoal to cook with, once the curing process has been completed. When
charcoal is burning strong, carefully place hot coals on charcoal grate.

5 | P a g e
NOTE: To extend the life of your grill, make sure that hot coals and wood do
not touch the walls of grill.
IF USING CHARCOAL CHIMNEY STARTER, PROCEED TO STEP 5.
If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, ONLY use charcoal lighting fluid
approved for lighting charcoal. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol or other
flammable material for lighting charcoal. Follow all manufacturer’s warnings and
instructions regarding the use of their product. Start with 8 to 10 pounds (3.6 to
4.5 kg) of charcoal. This should be enough charcoal to cook with, once the
curing process has been completed. Place the charcoal in the center of each
charcoal grate.
Step 3
Saturate charcoal with lighting fluid. With lid open and charcoal grate completely
placed inside the grill, wait 2 to 3 minutes to allow lighting fluid to soak into
charcoal. Store charcoal lighting fluid a safe distance from the grill.
Step 4
With grill lid open, stand back and carefully light charcoal and allow to burn until
covered with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes).
Charcoal lighting fluid must be allowed to completely burn off prior to closing grill
lid (approximately 20 minutes). Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal
lighting fluid in grill and may result in a flash-fire or explosion when lid is opened.
Step 5
With coals burning strong, close the lid. Allow the temperature to reach 225°F
(107°C) on temperature gauge. Maintain this temperature for 2 hours.
Step 6
Increase the temperature to 400°F (205°C) on temperature gauge. This can be
achieved by adding more charcoal and/or wood (see “Adding Charcoal/Wood
During Cooking” section of this manual). Maintain this temperature for 1 hour then
allow unit to cool completely.
NOTE: It is important that the exterior of the grill is not scraped or rubbed during
the curing process.
IMPORTANT: To protect your smoker from excessive rust, the unit must be
cured periodically and covered at all times when not in use.

Warning
Please only use the grill outdoors on a hard, level, non-combustible, stable surface
(concrete, ground, etc.) capable of supporting the weight of the grill. Keeping away
from roof overhang or any combustible material. Never use on wooden or other
surfaces that could burn. Place the grill away from open windows or doors to prevent
smoke from entering your house. In windy weather, place the grill in an outdoor area
that is protected from the wind.
DO NOT use grill without charcoal ash tray in place. DO NOT attempt to remove
charcoal ash tray while coals are hot.
When grill is in use, keep clearance of 36” between the hot grill and any combustible
materials, such as bushes, trees, wooden decks, wooden fences, buildings, etc. Do
not place hot grill under roof overhang or in any other enclosed area.
For outdoor use only. Do not operate grill indoors or in an enclosed area.
For household use only. Do not use this grill for other than its intended purpose.
We recommend the use of a Charcoal chimney starter to avoid the dangers
associated with charcoal lighting fluid. If you choose to use charcoal lighting fluid, only
use lighting fluid approved for lighting charcoal. Carefully read manufacturer’s
warnings and instructions on the charcoal lighting fluid and charcoal prior to the use of
their product. Store charcoal lighting fluid safely away from grill.
When using charcoal lighting fluid, allow charcoal to burn with grill lid and doors open
until covered with a light ash (approximately 20 minutes). This will allow charcoal
lighting fluid to burn off. Failure to do this could trap fumes from charcoal lighting fluid
in grill and may result in a flash fire or explosion when lid is opened.
Never use charcoal that has been pre-treated with lighting fluid. Use only a high grade
plain charcoal or charcoal / wood mixture.
Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or
similar products could cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
