AFTER-USE SAFETY
WARNING
Additional charcoal and/or wood may be required to maintain or increase cooking temperature.
1. Stand back and carefully open grill or firebox lid. Use caution since flames can flare-up when fresh air suddenly
comes in contact with fire.
2. Wearing oven mitts/gloves, use charcoal grate adjuster crank to place charcoal grate at the lowest level of
cooking chamber. Open cooking chamber door or firebox side door to allow access to charcoal grate.
3. Stand back a safe distance and use long cooking tongs to lightly brush aside ashes on hot coals. Use
cooking tongs to add charcoal and/or wood to charcoal grate, being careful not to stir-up ashes and sparks. If
necessary, use your Charcoal Chimney Starter to light additional charcoal and/or wood and add to existing fire.
WARNING: Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm coals as flashback may occur causing
severe burns.
4. When charcoal is burning strong again, wear oven mitts/gloves and carefully return charcoal grate to desired
cooking level. Ensure that no ashes, coals or embers have fallen to the ground as a fire may start. As a
precaution, completely wet beneath and around grill with water to extinguish any fallen ashes, coals or
embers.
