Operating Your Barbecue

Charcoal Grill

Lighting Instructions

NEVER use flammable materials and fluids such as gasoline, kerosene, butane or propane, diesel fuel, or alcohol to light or re-light fires. Keep the grill away from such substances when lit.

Use high quality hardwood charcoal to ensure a good flame. Charcoal briquettes made from maple, oak, birch, or elm woods will burn cleanly, minimizing smoke and unpleasant odors.

1.Open the hood and remove cooking grates.

2.Place charcoal on the ashtray at the bottom of grill and arrange charcoal in a pyramid shaped stack.

3.Add charcoal lighting fluid according to manufacturer’s instructions. Let it stand for about a minute to let fluid penetrate charcoal.

4.Carefully light charcoal, allowing it to burn approximately 15 to 20 minutes or until a light gray ash develops.

Leave about a one-half inch space between each piece of charcoal. This helps to avoid flare-ups from the meat juices and provides the even heat best suited for grilling.

Grilling

NEVER allow children or pets unattended in an area where a grill is being used. Never allow children to sit, stand or play on or around the grill at any time. When in use, certain areas of the grill get hot enough to cause severe burns.

Leave the hood open for “Texas Style” open air grilling. Close the hood for “Smoker” cooking.

For the greatest concentration of heat, leave the hood open. Adjust the crank handle to lift the charcoal tray up so the burning charcoal will be close to the grilling meat. Lower the charcoal tray to slow the grilling temperature.

Storage

Never store the grill with ashes or combustible materials inside. Do not store the grill until the fire is completely extinguished and the grill body has cooled.

Turning on and off the Lights and Fan

The ON / OFF switch controlling your halogen light is located at the control panel on the front lower left side.

Certain models of the Cal Flame grill are equipped with either one or two halogen light.

Your grill is equipped with a grounded (3 prong) 120 VAC plug located in the lower left rear corner of your cart and must be plugged into a permanent grounded 120 VAC outlet with a dedicated 15amp GFI breaker. DO NOT cut or remove the ground prong as this may result in fire, electrical shock or other personal injury. This electrical source provides power to the lights.
