CARE AND SAFE USE GUIDELINES
EN
EXTINGUISHING
•
To extinguish unit – stop adding fuel and close all the vents and the lid to
allow the fire to die naturally.
•
DO NOT use water to extinguish the charcoals as this could damage the
ceramic Kamado.
MAINTENANCE
•
Tighten the bands and oil the hinge 2 times a year or more if needed.
LIGHTING, USAGE AND CARE INFORMATION
Ensure the Kamado is positioned on a permanent, flat, level, heat resistant
•
non-flammable surface away from flammable items.
•
Ensure the Kamado has a minimum of 2m overhead clearance and has a
minimum 2m clearance from other surrounding items.
To start a fire place rolled up newspaper with some lighter cubes or solid
•
firelighters on the charcoal plate in the base of the Kamado. Then place 1 or
2 handfuls of lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
DO NOT use petrol, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other similar
•
chemicals for lighting or relighting.
•
Open the bottom vent and light the newspaper using a long nosed lighter or
safety matches. Once it has caught, leave the bottom vent and lid open for
about 10 minutes to build a small bed of hot embers.
•
It is recommended you don't stoke or turn the coals once they are alight.
This allows the charcoals to burn more uniformly and efficiently.
•
Once alight ONLY use heat resistant gloves when handling hot ceramics or
cooking surfaces.
•
See below for cooking instructions depending on temperature and duration.
REFUELLING
•
With the vents closed, the Kamado stays at a high temperature for several
hours. If you require a longer cooking time (e.g. when roasting a whole joint
or slow smoking), it may be necessary to add more charcoal. Just add some
additional charcoal and continue.
