Safety Precautions
Safety is paramount when using a charcoal barbecue. Always operate the grill on a horizontal, stable, and non-flammable surface. Never use the barbecue indoors or in confined spaces such as houses, tents, caravans, or boats, as this poses a fatal risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Keep children and pets at a safe distance from the grill at all times, as it becomes extremely hot during operation. Do not move the barbecue while it is in use or while the charcoal is still hot.
Operation and Lighting
Before cooking, ensure the barbecue is properly assembled and placed in a safe, open area. Use only approved firelighters that comply with EN 1860-3 standards. Do not use spirit, petrol, or other flammable liquids to light or re-light the fire. Allow the charcoal to burn for at least 30 minutes until it is covered with a grey layer of ash before placing food on the grill. This ensures the charcoal is at the correct temperature for cooking and helps prevent the ingestion of harmful substances.
Maintenance and Care
Regular maintenance is essential for the longevity of your barbecue. Clean the cooking grids regularly to prevent the buildup of grease and food residue. When adjusting or moving parts of the barbecue during use, such as the lid or air controls, always use protective gloves, potholders, or appropriate utensils to avoid burns. Store the barbecue in a clean, dry place when not in use to protect it from the elements.
