Thank you for purchasing the ProQ Flatdog Portable Grill, we hope it
will accompany you on many adventures! The Flatdog carries a 12 Month
Warranty which covers defects due to bad workmanship or faulty materials
to the original purchaser. Please keep a record of your purchase (such as
order conrmation, invoice or receipt) as this will be needed to make a
warranty claim. Misuse or abuse will not be covered under warranty, so
please read the Safety Information & Care Instructions carefully. Some
discolouration due to heat is to be expected from normal use, and will not
aect the function of the grill.
This unit is designed for outdoor use only. Use in a well ventilated area - do
not operate indoors or in an enclosed area.
This grill is intended to be used with lumpwood charcoal or BBQ briquettes
only, do not use wood as a fuel source.
Do not overll with charcoal or use this BBQ as a repit. This will cause
warping of the steel and may impede the ability to fold at.
Only use this grill on a hard, level and non-combustible surface. This grill
will scorch grass or wooden tabletops. We recommend using a paving slab or
a couple of bricks underneath to raise it o the ground.
Do not use on a plastic table or surface under any circumstances.
Make sure there is sucient clearance between the unit and any combustible
materials such as bushes, trees, decking and buildings.
Do not leave the grill unattended when lit and keep children and pets away
at all times.
Use suitable BBQ/oven mitts when handling your BBQ, as the surfaces will
become hot, especially when adding more fuel to the re. Do not move the
grill when lit.
Ensure the re is completely extinguished and allow the grill to cool down
before emptying the ash and re-folding. Be careful of embers, and use BBQ/
oven mitts when emptying ash.

Avoid pouring water into a hot BBQ, this will damage the body and may
cause warping or cracking which will stop the grill from being able to fold
easily.
Wash with warm, soapy water and allow to dry thoroughly after every use
and before storing – this will avoid any corrosion. The cooking grill is
dishwasher safe.
The use of abrasive cleaners or sharp objects can damage the surfaces. We
recommend using wooden or plastic (once cold) cleaning utensils.
If required, you can disassemble the unit and clean each piece separately.
