The Fire Magic® stainless steel charcoal grill has the benefi t of an adjustable height charcoal pan
allowing you to change the height of the charcoal while cooking and gives you the ability to add fuel
without having to remove the cooking grids. This enables the outdoor chef to be in complete control
of cooking heat at the grilling surface.

WARNING

Built-in models must be installed in masonry or other type of fi reproof enclosure. The unit is not insulated
and therefore must be installed with 18" of side and back clearance from unprotected combustible

materials such as wood, plastic or stucco with wood framing.

Do not install this unit under unprotected fl ammable
surfaces. Do not install or use this appliance inside a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area, including
recreational vehicles or boats.

Carefully unpack your grill and check the parts. If you have
purchased a built-in, simply slide the unit into your grill
opening. Next, fi t the crank handle into the hole on the
front right side of the face. Aligning it carefully, screw it into
the nut on the frame (see Fig. 1-1). After installation, crank
the handle in and out to raise and lower the charcoal pan.

INSTALLATION

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause injury or property
damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualifi ed professional

installer or service agency.

CHARCOAL GRILL OVEN (optional)

If you purchased an oven with your charcoal grill it will come pre-assembled
from the factory.

The oven (with the rounded top Fig. 2-1) is easy to remove and replace.
Simply remove the cooking grids and lift the oven off of the grill, then replace

the cooking grids. To reinstall reverse the above process.

The smoker model oven has an angled lid and adjustable air vents to aid in
controlling the rate at which the charcoal burns. The oven may be lifted off
after removing the left and right retaining screws (Fig. 2-2) on the inside of
the oven.

USING THE GOURMET STAINLESS STEEL CHARCOAL GRILL

1. Remove the cooking grids and pile your charcoal on the charcoal pan. Avoid spillage.

WARNING: When adding charcoal, spread it across the charcoal pan evenly and DO NOT exceed a height

of 1" above the charcoal pan.
Excessive amounts of charcoal may cause over heating and damage to your grill.

2. Follow the instructions supplied with your charcoal/fuel for lighting.

3. Turning the crank handle raises or lowers the charcoal pan to increase or decrease the grilling heat as you

desire.

4. Lower the charcoal pan and open the access door to add or spread out your coals while cooking.

WARNING

All surfaces of the charcoal unit become HOT during use. Exercise
caution when using this unit, especially when adding charcoal or

cranking the charcoal pan up or down.

CHARCOAL DRIP TRAY

After each use, wait for the grill to cool and carefully pull out the
charcoal drip tray to check it. When nearing full, carefully pull out the
drip tray, lifting with both hands to keep the tray level until it is safely
discarded.

Note: The charcoal drip tray has a heatshield to protect from over

heating. It may be neccessary to remove the heatshield to
properly clean out the charcoal drip tray. When reinstalling,
the heatshield dimples must face downward as shown in Fig.
2-3.

EXHAUST REMOVAL

If installed under a patio roof, the grill area should be fully covered by a non-combustible chimney and exhaust
hood. An exhaust fan with a rating of 1,000 CFM or more is necessary to effi ciently remove smoke and other
cooking by-products from the covered area.

THIS UNIT SHOULD NOT BE LOCATED IN A FULLY ENCLOSED AREA OF ANY KIND.

ACCESSORIES

USING THE GRILL BRUSH

Purchase a Fire Magic® Stainless-Steel Grill brush to
keep your grill top clean. Complete with scraper for large
particles and replaceable head with brass bristles for
overall cleaning.

Fig. 7-1

CLEANING

Your new Fire Magic® grill represents the latest and most
advanced technology available. In order to continue to
enjoy the benefi ts of this technology and to protect your
investment, we recommend the following:

Clean the unit with a quality stainless steel cleaner at
least once a month (see Fig. 7-3).

Note: In a humid environment, due to the nature

of stainless steel, iron oxide deposits may
appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits
are removable with stainless steel cleaner
during periodic maintenance.

Grill brush with replacement head

WARMING RACK (optional)

The warming rack (Fig. 7-2) is packed separately with
the grill.

To install the warming rack, orient the rack as shown in
Fig. 7-2 with the left and right side pegs forward. With
the rack above the two supports mounted in either side of
the oven, slip both pegs into their respective slots, then
rotate the rack down on top of the supports.

CAUTION: Use hand protection when manipulating

the warming rack while the grill is hot, or
wait for it to cool fi rst.

Reverse the process to remove.

Fig. 7-2 Warming rack in place inside oven

Check the burner ports at least annually for blockage by
removing the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions)
and visually inspecting the gas intake tube for insects
and nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fi re beneath
the grill.

The inside of the grill may be cleaned periodically
with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner
instructions for proper use.

By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the
beauty and power of your grill for many years to come.

PROTECTING YOUR GRILL

An optional heavy-duty cover will protect the finish
on your grill and preserve your investment. The water
repellent material will shield the grill from corrosion and
oxidation.

To provide a custom fi t, each cover has been cut and
sewn by hand for a particular smoke oven model. Make
sure to give the model number of your grill when ordering
a cover from the manufacturer or your local dealer.

To maintain and protect the grill cover, occasionally wipe
the outside with a sponge soaked in water and a mild
household detergent or cleaner, and rinse with a clean
damp cloth.

Important: Allow grill to cool before covering.

Wipe with grain

USING AND (UN)LOCKING CASTERS (STAND
ALONE ONLY)

The portable cart comes with four (4) casters, two (2)
of which are locking and articulated.

For ease in guiding the cart when pushing, steer from
behind with the articulated casters and lead with the
others.

Before using the grill, always lock the casters by pushing
down on the side of the steel rocker labeled OFF until
the wheel will no longer roll (Fig. 7-4).

Before moving the grill, wait for it to cool, then unlock
the wheels again by pressing the side of the steel rocker
labeled ON until the wheel rolls.
