Important - Please read this instructions fully before starting assembly
Warning: Whilst every effort has been made in the manufacture of your BBQ to remove any sharp
edges, care should be taken in handling to avoid any accidental injury.
• Assembly time: approx. 60 mins.
• Make sure the assembly instructions have been followed correctly.
• Set the Charcoal BBQ in a suitable position, on a level surface away from areas likely to catch fire. The
base of the Charcoal BBQ will get hot so ensure it stands on a suitable surface.
• Always stand your Charcoal BBQ outdoors and on level ground away from trees and wooden fencing.
Ensure there is a least 1 metre clearance around all sides of the Charcoal BBQ. Keep away from
fences, over hanging branches and other combustible materials.
• Use Charcoal and a suitable lighting method.
• Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
• “WARNING! This barbecue will become very hot , do not move it during operation.”
• “Do not use indoors.”
• “WARNING! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or relighting! Use only firelighters complying to
EN1860-3!”
• “WARNING! Keep children and pets away.”
Method 1. Charcoal & Lighting Fluid/ Gel
• Set up your Charcoal BBQ in a safe place. Place enough charcoal in the charcoal grate to a depth of 3
- 5cm.
• Taking care not to spill any liquid/ gel onto your hands or clothes. Apply carefully the lighting fluid/ gel
over the charcoal.
• If using lighting fluid, wait for 30 seconds to allow the liquid to soak into the charcoal.
• Do not light the charcoal if you have spilt fluid or gel onto your clothes. Light the charcoal using a long
taper or safety lighter. The charcoal will then burn for a period with flames.
• When the flames die down, check the charcoal is beginning to glow red. If your coals are going out, you
should open all the vents and allow to cool down before trying to apply more liquid.
CAUTION: Apply carefully lighting fluid/ gel in small amounts. Over application can be
dangerous.
• Do NOT squirt liquid onto burning charcoal.
• After lighting, the fire should be ready for cooking in 30-40 minutes, or when even grey ash is visible by
day, or an even red glow is visible by night.
Method 2. Lighting Blocks
• Place three or four Lighting Blocks in the centre of the Charcoal grate and light with a match.
• Place pieces of charcoal around each burning block. Add more charcoal as required, in a pyramid
formation.
• When burning is established, spread the fuel out evenly. After lighting, the fire should be ready, or when
even grey ash is visible by day, or an even red glow is visible by night.
• Make sure that the cooking grill is fully located into the grill supports so that the cross bar supports lock
behind the retaining edges.
• When the charcoal is alight, the smoke and flames have died down and the charcoal has an even layer
of grey ash, rake the charcoal into a level layer in the hearth.
• Small quantities of charcoal may be added on top of the charcoal layer prior to cooking to extend
cooking time.
• To help prevent food sticking, apply a tin coating of cooking oil on the grill prior to cooking.
• To adjust the airflow using the air vent we recommend to use of a heat resistant glove.
• ALWAYS WEAR OVEN GLOVES WHEN HANDLING THE CHARCOAL BBQ.

Safety and Care Advice
• Recommend using Maximum 1.75kg to be used for each section of the firebowl. Excess charcoal will
make the BBQ too hot for cooking.
• Ensure the barbecue has cooled down completely before removing the charcoal ash.
•
Care and Maintenance
• To make it easier to clean your Charcoal BBQ after use, line the firebowl with aluminium cooking
foil, shiney side up. Remember to leave ventilation holes clear by piercing the foil where necessary.
This process will lengthen the life of your Charcoal BBQ.
• Charcoal is available in lump wood from (large irregular pieces) and as briquettes (uniformly sized
pieces). Please use the charcoal complying to EN1860-2.
• It is not advisable to completely fill the firebowl as the BBQ may become far too hot to cook
successfully. As a guide ,a 3kg bag of charcoal briquettes should last for at least 2 full BBQ fires.
• If the fires flares up due to dripping fat then douse the flames lightly with a fine water spray.
• When you have finished using the Charcoal BBQ, never pour cold water directly on the coals to
extinguish them as this may damage your Charcoal BBQ. Use old cinder, sand or a fine water
spray.
• Empty the bottom bowl of ashes when they are completely cold.
• To clean your Charcoal BBQ, soak the cooking grill and tools in hot soapy water as soon as
possible after use. Dry thoroughly and store in a dry place. Do not leave your Charcoal BBQ outside
unprotected.
Food Safety
• Thoroughly defrost frozen meat and poultry in the refrigerator before cooking. Keep raw meat and
poultry separate from cooked food.
• Ensure that the grill is thoroughly cleaned before cooking and lighting the barbecue.
• Always wash hands after handling raw meat and poultry before handling any ready to eat food.
• Wipe and disinfect surfaces that have been in contact with raw meat and poultry.
• When barbecuing meat and poultry, make sure the barbecue is really hot. Place the larger, thicker
portions furthest away from the most intense heat to ensure thorough cook ing without burning and turn
regularly.
• Use separate utensils for handling raw meat or poultry and cooked food on the barbecue, or wash them
thoroughly between use.
• To check whether meat, particularly poultry, is cooked, pierce the flesh with a skewer or fork: the juices
should run clear. Ensure the product is piping hot throughout.
Attention! This BBQ will become very hot do not move it during operation. Do NOT use indoors.
“Warning! Keep children and pets away!”
“Caution! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or re-lighting! Use only firelighters complying to
EN 1860-3!”
