• Never use water to reduce flames or to extinguish coals as doing so may
damage the ceramic/powder coated surface.
• Never throw briquettes/coals away until you are absolutely sure that
they have been extinguished.
• Keep highly combustible fumes and liquids, e.g. petrol, alcohol and other
combustible material, at a safe distance from the barbecue.
• The maximum amount of charcoal and briquettes to be used at once is
0.9 kg. Otherwise the BBQ may be damaged.
• NOTICE! Briquettes/charcoal must always be placed in the charcoal
bowl, which in turn must be placed on the charcoal grate in the bottom
of the barbecue. If you do not do this, you run the risk of damaging the
barbecue.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• We recommend that you do not use lighter fluid when lighting this barbecue. There is a
risk that lighter fluid may drip down and set the ash recepticle on fire, which may result
in the barbecue becoming discoloured. Never use petrol or methylated spirits to light the
barbecue as it may produce uncontrollable heat as the result of explosions. Instead, use
one of the ignition methods described below.
• The briquettes/coals are ready for barbecuing once they exhibit an even glow and are
covered by a grey "skin". Do not use too many briquettes/coals, one layer will be suf-
ficient. Otherwise, the barbecue may suffer damage.
• Notice! Briquettes/charcoal must always be placed in the charcoal bowl, which in turn
must be placed on the charcoal grate in the bottom of the barbecue. If you do not do
this, you run the risk of damaging the barbecue.
IGNITION USING A BARBECUE STARTER/CHIMNEY STARTER
• Place 2–3 st firelighters on the coal grate in the bottom of the barbecue.
• Fill the barbecue starter. with the required number of briquettes/coals and palce it over
the source of ignition
• Light and wait until an even glow has been achieved.
• Pour the briquettes/coals onto the coal grate.
• Allow the barbecue starter to cool on a non-combustible surface.
IGNITION USING ELECTRIC LIGHTER
• Place a few briquettes/coals on the coal grate in the bottom of the barbecue.
• Place the electric lighter on top of the briquettes/coals.
• Cover the electric lighter with more briquettes/coals.
• Connect the electric lighter to a power socket and wait until the briquettes/coals are
ready to use.
• Remove the electric lighter, disconnect the plug from the power socket and leave the
lighter to cool on a non-comustible surface.
