WARNINGS
■ Do not use in high winds.
■ Do not use gasoline, alcohol, or other highly volatile fluids to ignite charcoal. Use a commercially
prepared firestarter, such as Weber FireStarters, and make sure that, if using lighter fluid, any fluid
that may have drained through the bottom vents is removed before lighting the charcoal.
■ Kettle should be kept in a level position at all times.
■ Infants, children, and pets should never be left unattended near a hot kettle.
■ The kettle should never be used within five feet of any combustible material.
■ Do not wear clothing with loose flowing sleeves while barbecuing.
■ Never use kettle unless all parts of the unit are in place. Make sure ash catcher is in place when
using the barbecue.
■ Charcoal starter fluid should never be added to hot or even warm coals. After use, starter fluid
should be capped and placed a safe distance from kettle.
■ The lid should be removed from the kettle while lighting and getting fire started.
■ Do not line bowl of kettle with aluminum foil - it may obstruct flow of air. Instead, use a drip pan to
catch drippings from meat when cooking by the Indirect Method.
■ Always put charcoal in Char-Baskets or on top of the lower grate (charcoal grate) and not directly
into the bottom of the bowl.
■ During cooking, the ashes may contain hot coals. Remove ashes only after all coals have
completely burned out and are fully extinguished.
■ Do not place a hot lid on carpet or grass. Use the steel lid holder provided.
■ Never attempt to move a hot kettle.
■ Do not add charcoal impregnated with lighter fluid while cooking.
■ Never touch grates or kettle to see if they are hot.
■ Do not use water to control flare-ups or extinguish coals, as it may damage the porcelain finish;
slightly close bottom air vents, instead. Close all vents completely after putting the lid on the bowl
when you are finished cooking to extinguish the fire or coals.
■ Use proper barbecue tools with long heat-resistant handles.
■ Barbecue mitts should always be worn to protect hands while barbecuing.
■ Never dump hot coals where someone may step on them or where they might start a fire. Do not
remove coals until fully extinguished and cold.
■ Hot electric starters should be handled carefully and put in a safe place after use. Electric cords
should be placed away from walkways. Keep electric cords away from hot surfaces.
■ Do not use sharp objects of any kind to clean cooking grate or remove ashes.
■ Do not use abrasive cleaners on kettle or cooking grate.
■ To adjust vents or to remove lid while barbecuing, use barbecue mitts or a hot pad.
■ When using liquid starters always check ash catcher before lighting. Any accumulation of starter
fluid in the ash catcher could ignite, resulting in a fire below the bowl. Wipe out any fluid before
igniting charcoal.
