OPERATION PROPERLY ASSEMBLE • Wash and thoroughly dry all parts before first use using warm water, mild detergent and a non-scratch sponge.

6 Light the charcoal using preferred method following manufacturer’s instructions, e.g., chimney starter, charcoal lighter fluid, or a commercial fire starter. Warning: Do not use gasoline, kerosene, paraffin, alcohol, or lighter fuel to light your charcoal. 7 Once your charcoal is white-gray in color and glowing red in the center, you are ready to start cooking. Warning: Once lit, do not move your grill or leave it unattended.
FLARE-UPS • When the fat renders from your food and drips onto the charcoal, it is possible that flames may flare-up. Should this occur, DO NOT put out the flames with water as ash will fly up and stick to yourfood. • The best way to manage flare-ups is to use a Two-Zone fire. Refer to CHARCOAL CONFIGURATION below for further information. • When flames flare-up in a Two-Zone fire, using protective grill tools, simply move the food away from the flames to the indirect heat.
Center Grilling • Center area with direct heat and an indirect heat perimeter. Ideal for grilling a number of small cuts, such as chicken wings or thighs. CLEANING 1 Ensure your BBQ Buddy 14in Portable Charcoal Grill has completely cooled before cleaning. 2 Remove the Cooking Grill (4) as soon as possible after use for easier cleaning. Cleaning between uses will prevent grease build-up. Soak in hot water with detergent, and use a stainless steel bristle brush or steel wool to remove food residue.
