1 Place charcoal, woodchips or briquettes into the insert.
Be careful not to overload with solid fuel (one layer of
briquettes is recommended).
2 Remove the grates and ceramic rods. Place the charcoal
insert on top of the burner. The insert will clip onto barbs in
the frame of the grill.
3 Light the grill burners following the lighting instructions on
page 24. Turn the control knob to "SEAR".
4 Wait eight to 10 minutes, allow smoke to get to your desired
preference. The solid fuel should begin to grey around the
edges.
5 Shut off the burner, the solid fuel will continue to burn and
smoke.
6 When you have finished using the grill, turn the control
knobs to “OFF”.
7 Allow the grill to cool and clean the grates, drip pan and
grease tray after each use. The multi-tool can be used
to scrape out the bottom of the insert. See Care and
Maintenance on page 43 for more instructions on cleaning
the charcoal insert.
Adjusting the charcoal insert
The heat and burn rate of the charcoal insert can be controlled
by adjusting insert to reduce the level of oxygen supplied to
the fire and slow the cooking rate. Removing the lid provides
an excellent cooking surface for direct grilling. Note: the wire
grate must be used in conjunction with the charcoal insert for
direct grilling. There is also a venting adjustment on the top of
the insert lid, it is recommended that the vents are modified
prior to cooking. If the lid or vents have to be adjusted during
cooking, please use the multi-tool as the charcoal burner insert
will be hot.
Using wood and charcoal
y Wood should be soaked briefly in water beforehand
y Larger wood chunks burn slower than smaller chips, giving a longer smoking time
y Different wood types (and charcoal types) impart different flavours to the food
y Charcoal and wood can be added periodically to the tray as required to extend the cooking time
IMPORTANT!
Do not use lighter-fluid in the charcoal insert or on the grill. The solid fuel will ignite from the
burners, it does not need to be lit by a match or butane lighter.
IMPORTANT!
When using multiple grill accessories (e.g. charcoal insert, griddle plate etc), at least one of the
two center burners should remain accessory-free.
