Unpack BBQ
Unpack the BBQ and dispose of all packaging materials. Keep the packaging materials out of
the reach of children and dispose of them according to regulations after BBQ assembly.
Take the following steps to assemble the BBQ.
Before grilling
• Prior to first use, wash the BBQ grate and the warming rack with warm soapy water.
• Pre-firing
Before you use the BBQ for the first time, it needs to be conditioned (pre-fired) for at
least 1-2 hours at a temperature of 212° F- 382°F.
This is necessary in order to make the inside ready for barbecuing and to burn in the heat-
resistant paint on the outside. During pre-firing, the cover should not be closed
completely. Only close the cover completely for a few minutes at the end.
Attention: The temperature must never exceed 500°F.
Operation
Danger: Risk of burning!
The BBQ, the charcoal and BBQ meat become very hot during use. Any contact can result in
serious burns.
• Keep sufficient distance from the hot parts, since any contact can lead to severe burns.
• Always wear oven or BBQ gloves when grilling.
• Use only long-handled utensils with heat-resistant grips.
• Do not wear any clothing with wide sleeves.
• Use only dry lighters or special fluid lighters.
1. Open the cover and remove the BBQ grates.
2. Place 2-3 solid firelighters in the middle of the lifting system. Pay attention to the manu-
facturer's instructions on the packaging. Light the firelighters with a match.
3. Layer a maximun of 4.5 lbs of charcoal around the firelighters.
4. Prior to first use, the BBQ must be pre-fired for a minimum 1-2 hours. See section Before
grilling.
5. As soon as the charcoal is glowing, distribute it evenly. To do this, use a suitable fireproof
tool with a long, fireproof handle.
6. Put the BBQ grate in place and adjust the charcoal grate to the desired height using the
lever.
7. Only place the BBQ meat on the grate when the charcoal is covered with a bright layer of
ash. A plate with the BBQ meat can be set down on the side table.
8. Leave the lid open or closed according to the type of BBQ meat. If a longer cooking time
is needed for the BBQ meat, it is recommended that the lid be closed. The thermometer
located on the lid shows the temperature in the cooking chamber. Ensure that the tempe-
rature for a particular BBQ meat does not get too high, otherwise the meat could burn.
