Safety Tips
There are several ways to get the charcoal ready to use. Charcoal chimney starters allow you to start the
charcoal using newspaper as a fuel. If you use a starter fluid, use only charcoal starter fluid. Never add
charcoal fluid or any other flammable liquids to the fire. Keep charcoal fluid out of reach of children and
away from heat sources. There are also electric charcoal starters, which do not use fire. Be sure to use an
extension cord for outdoor use. When you are finished grilling, let the coals completely cool before
disposing in a metal container.
WARNINGS:
Do not add charcoal starter fluid or charcoal
impregnated with charcoal lighter fluid to hot
or warm coals. Cap starter fluid after using and
place a safe distance away from the oven.
Barbecue mitts or hot pads should always be
used to protect hands while barbecuing,
opening the fire door, or adjusting the dual
draft vents.
Do not use gasoline, alcohol, or other highly
volatile fluids to ignite charcoal.
Use proper barbecue tools with long, heat
resistant handles.
Do not leave infants, children, or pets
unattended near a hot oven.
Never touch the cooking or charcoal grates, or
the oven, to see if they are hot.
Do not remove ashes until all coals are
completely burned out and are fully
extinguished.
Burning charcoal inside can kill you. It gives off
carbon monoxide, which has no odor. NEVER burn
charcoal inside homes, vehicles, or tents
.
Do not wear clothing with loose flowing
sleeves while lighting or using the oven.
To extinguish coals, close the hood, fire door,
and dual draft vents. Do not use water.
Do not use this charcoal grill in high
winds.
To control flare ups, if necessary, close the hood
and, the fire door and dual draft vents.
Do not store combustible materials (charcoal,
Firelighters, etc.) in the storage area under the
ash pan while using the oven.
Handle and store hot electric starters carefully.
Keep electrical cords away from the hot
surfaces of the oven
Open the lid of the oven while lighting and
getting the coals started.
ATTENTION: Sunstone™ safety instructions are located on the front control panel face panel.
Always read all instructions and warnings before proceeding, or serious safety hazards can occur. Read
all instructions in this manual and front face of grill control panel before use. We recommend that a
licensed contractor install your Sunstone™ grill.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY - Island Safety
ATTENTION:Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury
or property damage. Read the installation, operating and maintenance instructions thoroughly before
installing or servicing this equipment.
Placement and Location
•Never locate this island in an enclosed room, under any sealed overhead structure, or any type of
enclosed area such as a garage, shed, or breezeway, and keep clear of trees and shrubs.
•Do not build or place island under or near windows or vents that can be opened into your home.
•Maintain sufficient distance as to not overheat any overhead combustible material such as a patio
cover.
•The area surrounding your island should be kept clean and free from flammable liquids and other
combustible materials such as mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning fluids, and
gasoline.
•Do not use the island cabinet for storage of flammable or plastic items.
•Do not store the liquid propane (LP) cylinder in the vicinity of the grill or other appliance when it is
not being used.
•Do not block any island vent in such a way that will cause ventilation issue. Fresh air must be able to
pass through installed vents to safeguard against residual gas accumulation.
WARNING: Either for Modular or Built-in island installation, you MUST install proper air ventilation
at the upper side and lower side of island face wall, if adequate air ventilation is not installed, risk of fire,
injury or explosion may result.
For Built-in Installations
Outdoor Kitchen Island should be built with NON-Combustible applications, including masonry stone or
brick. Never build deck below grill; grill is supported by counter edge. It is recommended that the
enclosure have several ventilation holes or vents to prevent gas build-up in the event of a leak. (See Fig.
A-page 7) The deck ledges and counter should be flat and level in reference to the floor. If your grill is
equipped with a rotisserie or lights, electrical service should be provided. GFCI electrical plugs are
required for outdoor use. If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie, a minimum of 24" (609.6mm) of
clearance is needed on each side of the grill for the motor and skewer.
For Modular Installations
Outdoor Kitchen Island should be built with Non-Combustible applications, including Steel Welded
Frame, or Steel Stud Frame finished with Cement Board. For modular installations, a moisture barrier is
recommended, using pressure treated composite board under base of island. Interior should be lined
with ABS plastic liner as additional protection. No deck below grill is required; grill is supported by
counter edge. It is recommended that the enclosure have several ventilation holes or vents to prevent
gas build-up in the event of a leak. (See Fig. A-page 7) The deck ledges and counter should be flat and
level in reference to the floor. If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie or lights, electrical service should
be provided. GFCI electrical plugs are required for outdoor use. If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie, a
minimum of 24" (609.6mm) of clearance is needed on each side of the grill for the motor and skewer.

Page 6
INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY - Island Safety
ATTENTION: Upper and lower air vents (20 sq. in. minimum each) MUST BE PROVIDED on both sides
of built-in construction. The height from upper air vent to top surface of island is 5", and the height from
lower air vent to the bottom is 5”.
Island units must have vents cut into the island sides. If no vent openings are made in the island unit, the grill
will overheat and cause a fire hazard!
•Do not use an extension cord to supply power to your island, or appliance. Such use may result in a
fire, Electrical shock or other personal injury.
•Do not install a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit. A fuse in the neutral or ground circuit may result
in an Electrical shock hazard.
•Use only Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) protected circuit with this outdoor kitchen island.
•Keep all electrical components covered and secured away from any water or other liquids.
•Use only extension cords with a 3 prong grounding plug, rated for power of equipment, and approved
for outdoor use with a W-A marking.

Page 7
INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY – Prevailing Wind
CAUTION: Wind blowing into or across the rear oven lid vent can cause poor performance and/or
dangerous overheating. Orient the grill so that the prevailing wind blows toward the front of grill.
Windy Conditions
Your Sunstone™ charcoal grill is specially designed to draw fresh air in through the front drawer face, and
in direct to the interior burn trays. When grilling the hot gases are then released through the controlled
side hood vents, or through back of grill through a venting system. Using your grill in windy conditions may
disrupt the front-to-back air flow.
CAUTION: Any damage resulting from windy conditions causing overheating, including warping
of steel components. Also any discoloration from heat buildup, is excluded from warranty coverage.
NOTICE: Ensure grill is installed with proper air flow for correct combustion air and cooling
airflow. Airflow MUST be maintained for the grill to perform as it was designed. If airflow is blocked,
poor combustion will result.
Location
Locate the grill only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the charcoal grill in a building, garage, shed or
other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. During heavy use, the charcoal grill
will produce a lot of smoke while hood is up. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.

Page 8
INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY – Positioning
2. Allow for Ventilation
Your Sunstone™ grill is engineered with special vents on
the back of unit, which allow proper airflow out of the
back of grill, also increased airflow into Infra-red Burner
gas chamber. Be sure you allow a minimum of 4" behind
grill for proper air ventilation. Slide grill all the way into
cut-out, so there are no gaps present to inside of island
frame.
1. Slide Grill in Place
Your Sunstone™ grill is specially designed with an internal
built in hanger lip located at the Right, Left and Back sides.
The grill lip allows it to hang by the three supported edges
on the right, left and back. The front control panel requires
no supporting edge; it is designed to hang down the front of
your cut-out.
3. Securing in Place
The control panel is designed to sit flush against the island face. If counter top extends beyond the islands face,
creating a countertop overhang, it must be cut flush with the island face where the width of the control panel or a
gap will be created exposing the forward portions of the left and right side firewalls.
NOTICE: Ensure grill is installed with proper air flow for correct combustion air and cooling airflow.
Airflow MUST be maintained for the grill to perform as it was designed. If airflow is blocked,
overheating will occur and poor combustion will result. DO NOT INSTALL PLATFORM DIRECTLY UNDER
GRILL.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY – Locating Grill
Minimum Clearances
When installing the charcoal grill in any area was an exterior wall, or overhead structure is nearby, pay
close attention to the minimum distance requirements. For installations with a wall behind grill, it is
especially important to allow enough room for adequate airflow, or issues may occur. For islands that
are built using combustible materials, you must not surround same materials around any appliance, or
risk fire. You MUST use Non-Combustible building materials within 24" around all sides of appliance, ie.
Stone blocks, steel studs. Never locate the grill where the exhaust will be difficult to clean. If you wish to
use the rotisserie option, the space is essential for motor and skewer clearance.
Minimum Requirements
See Diagram (Page 10)
From Back Cut-Out Grill Line to Wall
8" Min. Clearance
From Counter to Outdoor Vent Hood
36" Min. Clearance
From Floor to Counter Top
38" Min. Clearance
From Grill to Vent Hood Width
4”-6" Min. Clearance
From Appliance to Appliance
12" Min. Clearance
From Appliance to Combustible Material
24" Min. Clearance
ATTENTION: This grill MUST NOT be located in any fully enclosed area of any kind. There should
be a minimum of 4-6 feet clearance from the top hood of grill and any overhead combustible
structure.
Vent Hood Exhaust
If installed or used under a patio roof, the cooking grid area must be fully covered by an exhaust hood
with a vent. An exhaust fan with a rating of a minimum 1,000 CFM (cubic feet per minute) (472 liters
per second) or more may be necessary to effectively remove smoke and other cooking by-products
from the area under the unprotected overhead combustible construction.

Page 11
INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY – Cooking Zones
ENTERTAINMENT ZONE:
The best location for your entertainment zone is on one end of the island, far away from your cooking
zone, but right next to your beverage zone. Make sure you have plenty of comfy chairs situated here.
SERVING ZONE:
The best location for your serving zone is in the center or heart of the island, adjacent from the
entertainment zone, and easily accessible to all your many guests at once.
PREP ZONE:
The best location for your food preparation zone is the longest counter space that is near the sink and
your grill top or near the ice chest.
CLEAN-UP ZONE:
The best location for your cleanup zone is as close to your sink as possible. Items located near your
cleanup zone will include not only items you'll use to clean up your outdoor kitchen and dishes, below
access storage, and trash drawer for easy clean-up.
BEVERAGE ZONE:
The best location for your beverage zone is on one end of the island, far away from your cooking zone,
but right next to your entertainment zone. This makes it far more ease of use for your many guests.
STORAGE ZONE:
The best location for your storage zone is the either on one end of the island or right in the middle. This
zone should always be in an area that is easily accessible, when multiple people are using the same
space.
COOKING ZONE:
For the best cooking zone location, position it nearest to the 'triangle' as possible either on one end, or
opposite of entertainment zone. It's always best to give this area its own space, so the chef can be
more focused on cooking great food.

START-UP & SAFETY CHECKS – Pre-Grilling Guide
GRILLING
Charcoal is recommended, however, wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for
grilling with the fuel source placed and ignited on the lower charcoal pan. Do not build too large of a fire.
We recommend starting a fire with no more than 2 pounds of charcoal (approximately 30 briquettes) and
adding more as needed during cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, now you can place secondary
fuel source on top height adjustable tray, like wood logs or other type of briskets. Failure to read and follow
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
GRILL MAINTENANCE
Frequency of cleanup is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely
extinguished before cleaning inside of the unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before
using again. Wipe out the interior of the unit with a cloth or paper towels.
When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out all remaining ashes. Ashes collect
moisture, which can lead to premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces with
vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit.
Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles
remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is
hot.
Start Up
Before you start cooking, clean the entire grill thoroughly with hot, soapy water. This is necessary to
remove residual solvents. Follow the steps below to insure proper safety when using your Sunstone
Charcoal Grill for the first time.
1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.
2. Slide Drip tray out, clean if necessary, to remove any residual grease or oil build up.
3. Build a small fire on the charcoal pan, being sure not to lay coals against the walls.
4. Close lid; position the top side hood vent ports at approximately one quarter turn open. This
burn should be sustained for at least two hours.

Page 13
START-UP & SAFETY CHECKS –Building your Fire
Successful charcoal grilling depends on a good fire. The general rule for knowing when your coals
are ready for grilling is to make sure that 80 percent or more of the coals are ashy gray. If you
have less than that, the coals are not ready, and if all of them are glowing red hot, the fire is
probably too hot.
Building a charcoal fire maybe accomplished by sliding open either the left or right side drawer. The
charcoal base should be built in the bottom tray. While the upper height adjustable tray is used for raising
the heat, higher or lower using your choice of grilling fuel, like wood logs or briskets.
Stack match light type of coals in center of charcoal pan. Light and let burn until coals are light white color.
Spread coals and adjust cooking height by turning crank handle.
Here are a few steps you can take to adjust the temperature of your fire:
•If it is too hot, spread the coals out a bit more, which makes the fire less intense.
•Raise or lower the adjustable charcoal grate.
•Partially close the vents in the grill, which reduces the amount of oxygen that feeds the fire.
•Use the indirect grilling method, with coals to either side of a drip pan and the food over the
pan rather than directly over the coals.
•In the event of a severe flare-up, spray the flames with water from a squirt bottle. Be
careful, spraying with water tends to blow ashes around and make a mess.
•Add briquettes 2 or 3 at a time to increase the burn time. Allow 10 minutes for coals to ash
over before adding more.
Always use caution when handling hot coals to prevent injury
CAUTION: Always add the majority of the Charcoal Base to Upper Height Adjustable Burn Tray,
too much Charcoal added to Lower Burn Tray of Drawer may cause warping to drawer track and make
it more difficult to open and close tightly drawer system.

Page 14
LIGHTING THE GRILL – Charcoal Grill Starters
4. Self-Starting Briquettes
If you don’t want to fool around with lighter fluid, there is one
more alternative—self-lighting charcoal briquettes. With
these, all you do is pile the briquettes on the grill, light them
with a match or butane lighter, and you have an almost instant
fire. Some grillers like to use these as starters, with a mixture
of regular briquettes. One thing to note, however: self-lighting
briquettes are not recommended for use with chimney starters.
3. Charcoal Chimney Lighter
A charcoal chimney starter is essentially a metal tube, usually
steel, with a handle on the side. Inside is a grate to hold the
briquettes and to keep them above the crumpled newspaper,
which goes in under the charcoal and is what starts the
briquettes. Ventilation holes ring the bottom of the tube.
The goal is to start a charcoal fire without using lighter fluid or
other petroleum-based fuels. This is to avoid unpleasant taste to
the food, environmental regulations or for other reasons.
2. Electric Charcoal Lighter
Electric charcoal lighters look like an elongated outline of
a Ping-Pong paddle. That outline is the lighter element
loop that, when plugged in, glows like the heating
elements in a toaster.
1. Lighter Fluid
The most common way to light charcoal briquettes is
with charcoal lighter fluid—an easily ignitable,
petroleum-based product.
Charcoal Starters are not included
CAUTION: Always add the majority of the Charcoal Base to Upper Height Adjustable Burn Tray
after Igniting charcoal from lower burn tray. Too much Charcoal added to Lower Burn Tray of Drawer
may cause warping to drawer track and make it more difficult to open and close tightly drawer system.

Page 15
LIGHTING THE GRILL – Lighter Fluid Starting
Depending on your cooking method, either leave the briquettes in a pile or spread evenly across the charcoal grate
using a long-handled poker.
Lighting Time 12 to 15 minutes
OPEN DRAWER
1. Stack charcoal briquettes or wood into
a pyramid-shaped pile on top of the
charcoal grate or pan. We recommend
using 2 pounds (approximately 30
briquettes) to start your fire, adding more
as needed.
2. Saturate the charcoal briquettes with
lighter fluid and let it soak in for
approximately 5 minutes.
3. After allowing the lighter fluid to
properly soak in, light the pile of
briquettes in several locations to ensure
an even burn. Always light the fire with
the grill drawer pan open. Leave grill
hood open until briquettes are fully lit.
Failure to do this could trap fumes from
charcoal
lighter fluid in grill and may result in a
flash fire when lid is opened.
4. You are ready to begin cooking when
the pile of briquettes ashes over and
produces a red glow (approximately 12 –
15 minutes).
WARNING: Never add charcoal lighter fluid to hot or warm coals as flashbacks may occur causing
INJURY OR BURN.

Page 16
LIGHTING THE GRILL – Electric Starter
Lighting Time 8 to 10 minutes
OPEN DRAWER
1. Arrange a layer of briquettes on the
grill’s charcoal grate slightly larger than
the area of the starter’s element.
2. Place the lighter element on the
charcoal, arrange additional charcoal in a
pyramid shape on and over the loop, and
plug in the lighter.
3. After 8 to 10 minutes, when the coals
around the element are glowing red, pull
the lighter from the briquettes and
carefully set it in a heat-safe place to cool
down. Then, with tongs, redistribute the
briquettes for whatever fire you
require.could trap fumes from charcoal
lighter fluid in grill and may result in a
flash fire when lid is opened.
4. You are ready to begin cooking when
the pile of briquettes ashes over and
produces a red glow (approximately 12 –
15 minutes).
CAUTION: Remember to always add the majority of the Charcoal Base to Upper Height Adjustable
Burn Tray after Igniting charcoal from lower burn tray. Too much Charcoal added to Lower Burn Tray of
Drawer may cause warping to drawer track and make it more difficult to open and close tightly drawer
system.

Page 17
LIGHTING THE GRILL – Chimney Starter
Lighting Time 15 to 20 minutes
OPEN DRAWER
1. Stuff 2 or 3 large newspaper, or scrap
paper sheets in the bottom cavity of the
chimney.
2. Load the top of the canister with
charcoal.
3. Light the paper with a match at
multiple points; convection sucks the
flame up the canister and will light all the
coals.
4. When the coals are glowing and
covered in ash, in 20 to 30 minutes,
they're ready to be turned out into the
grill.
CAUTION: Remember to always add the majority of the Charcoal Base to Upper Height Adjustable
Burn Tray after Igniting charcoal from lower burn tray. Too much Charcoal added to Lower Burn Tray of
Drawer may cause warping to drawer track and make it more difficult to open and close tightly drawer
system.

USING YOUR GRILL- Types of Cooking
Dual Zone Cooking
Your Sunstone Grill is divided into two individual cooking
zones, each cooking zone is designed to be controlled
individually by how the top adjustable rack is positioned,
and the front air intake slider is adjusted. Depending on
how you independently configure these components,
will give you control over different types of cooking,
including Smoking, Indirect, Slow Cooking and Direct
Cooking.
Heat Distribution
Knowing how to configure the different components will
give you the very best possible food positioning while
grilling. Depending on how you position you’re Charcoal
or Wood, also if you for example, place large amounts
of Charcoal base on bottom drawer tray, and neatly
spaced Wood logs on top of upper adjustable tray, you
will get varying effect to your grilling experience. It is
important to play with many variations to find what way
of grilling is best for you.
Grilling Combination
Your Sunstone Grill is designed for an exquisite cooking
experience with the use of three separate grilling
surfaces in one. This enables you to be simultaneously
searing your food on one side, while slow cooking or
smoking on other side and slow simmer on top warming
rack. The two individual drawer systems allow you to
individual control how much either Charcoal or Wood
materials you want to grill with also use multiple types,
for some amazing flavors.
Indirect Cooking
Indirect cooking is the process of cooking your food
without the heat source directly under your food. You
can sear meats over a high flame on one side of the grill
while slow cooking on the other side of the grill. It is like
cooking in an oven and is generally used for larger cuts
of meats, but can also be used for cooking foods that are
prone to flare ups. Indirect Cooking will result in tender
foods every time you grill.

Page 19
USING YOUR GRILL- Types of Cooking
Direct Cooking
Direct cooking is the process of cooking your food directly
over hot coals. This method is also called Searing, Grilling
or even Frying. Direct cooking is recommended for most
grilling applications, and the best place to perform Direct
Cooking is in the place where the cooking surface is the
hottest. This type of cooking locks in flavor and juices
while allowing the outer surface to absorb smoke and
food aroma that is produced as grease and drippings are
vaporized by the coals. The result is a crisp, flavorful
outside with a tender, juicy inside.
TYPES OF WOOD CHIPS TO USE:
•Alder: Medium, tart smoke flavor. Excellent on fish, chicken or game.
•Maple: Sweet, hearty smoke flavor. Best with fish, jerky or bacon.
•Apple: Light, sweet smoke flavor. Superb with poultry, ham or sausage.
•Hickory: Heavy smoke flavor. Best with beef, pork or game.
•Mesquite: Light smoke flavor. Excellent on fish, poultry or beef.
•Oak: Heavy smoke flavor. Best with beef, lamb or pork.
•Pecan: Rich, sweet, versatile flavor. Good with any grilled foods.
•Grapevine: Strong smoke flavor. Best with beef or poultry.
Smoker/Steamer Box
Adding the smoker box to your cooking experience adds
unique flavor to your food, you will come to enjoy. Use it
for either a smoker box with wood chips, or by filling with
Water it becomes a steamer box. While in use, remember
to close the hood. There are many different wood chips
available on the market, the most common are mesquite
and hickory. Just remember to soak the chips for 30
minutes prior, for best results.

OPTIONAL COMPONENTS – Rotisserie Installation
(Refer to the illustrations on this page, boxes 1-6)
1. Attach Motor Bracket Assembly to the side of the barbecue frame (can be mounted on either left
or the right side of the frame) using two screws and two nuts.
2. Insert Rotisserie Motor onto Motor Bracket Assembly.
3. Slide Prong Forks with the prongs facing away from the handle onto the Spit Rod. So that any
food item will be in the center between the two four prong forks.
4. Assemble Key Washer, Counter-balance and handle to Spit Rod. Slide Shaft Collar with long end
towards handle.
5. Insert motor extension cord three prong plug into an adjacent grounded GFCI receptacle outlet.
6. Before placing food item on forks when the rotisserie is being operated exclusively, it is strongly
recommended that a pan be placed on the grilling grids, beneath the food to catch the meat
drippings. This will prevent excessive buildup of drippings on the grids and facilitate cleaning.
When food item is placed on rotisserie, be sure that all Bolts are tightened securely.
Rotisserie assembly can be purchased
individually either by individual item, or in a
complete set, for your charcoal grill.
