Care and safe use guidelines
ABOUT YOUR CERAMIC BBQ
Ceramic BBQ cookers are extremely versatile. You can grill & smoke. Due to their excellent heat retention properties, high
temperatures can be achieved and maintained by precise contol of airow via the top and bottom vents. High temperatures
are ideal for fast cooking burgers and sausages whilst low heats will cook larger joints over a longer period of time. Why not
try adding some wood chips to the charcoal or try combining different avour wood chips to make your meats even more
avoursome.

CURING THE CERAMIC BBQ
• On the rim of the BBQ body and lid, a black felt gasket is applied to increase the air-tightness of the rim. This black felt
gasket should not be removed, but has to stay in position during use.
• To start a re, place rolled up newspaper with some lighter cubes or solid relighters on the charcoal plate (4) in the base
of the Ceramic BBQ. Then place 1 or 2 handfuls of lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
• DO NOT use petrol, white spirit, lighter uid, alcohol or other similar chemicals for lighting or relighting.
• Open the bottom vent and light the newpaper using a long nosed lighter or safety matches.
• DO NOT overload the unit with fuel – if the re is too intense this could damage the Ceramic BBQ.
• Leave until all the fuel is used and extinguished.
• If the rst burns are too high it could damage the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance to mature properly.
• After rst use inspect all fasteners for tightness. The metal band connecting your lid to the base will expand from the heat
and this could become loose. It is recommended you check and if neccessary tighten the band with a spanner.
• You can now use your Ceramic BBQ as normal.
EXTINGUISHING
• To extinguish unit – stop adding fuel and close all the vents and the lid to allow the re to die naturally.
• DO NOT use water to extinguish the charcoals as this could damage the Ceramic BBQ.
