OWNER’S MANUAL FOR C3PK1 GRILLS OPERATION - CHARCOAL GRILLS Grill Location This grill is designed for outdoor use only. Never operate your grill in any building, garage, or other enclosed area. Never operate your grill in a recreational vehicle or boat. Never operate your grill under any combustible materials, such as carports, covered porches, awnings, or overhangs. Check local codes and ordinances that may require where to place an outdoor cooking appliance from a structure.
OPERATION - CHARCOAL GRILLS Lighting 1. 2. 6. Follow the instructions below to build a fire. Use only high-quality charcoal – either hardwood lump or briquettes. Broilmaster Premium Natural Hardwood Lump Charcoal burns longer and hotter – with much better flavor. Make sure the ash pan is clean to start. Open lower door and slide out ash pan. Dispose of ashes in an approved metal container as described in the safety section. Do not remove hot coals. Replace the ash pan, close and latch door. 7.
MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Grill WARNING Never clean a hot grill. Make sure that the grill is cool and all coals are completely extinguished prior to removing any parts. A hot grill could cause severe burns. WARNING Accumulated grease is a fire hazard. Empty ash tray before each use and clean any grease build-up as needed. Grids Heat Indicator Calibration The heat indicator can be calibrated if needed. Remove the heat indicator from the grill and place the probe end in a pot of boiling water.
COOKING TIPS Cook Food To Proper Temperatures Cooking food safely requires that you raise the internal temperature of the meat high enough and for a long enough period of time to kill any food-borne bacteria that may cause illnesses. Color is not the best indicator that food is safe to eat. Use a high-quality probe thermometer to be sure your food is properly cooked. Place the tip of an instant-read thermometer into the center of the thickest part of the food but at least 1/2 inch deep.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Be sure the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode. Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or any enclosed areas.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Practice Safe Grilling Do not wear loose fitting clothing or flammable clothing (such as synthetics) around the grill. Never let clothing, pot holders, or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close to any grate, burner or hot surface. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury. Use only dry pot holders. Using a damp pot holder on a hot surface may cause burns from steam. Do not use towels or bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
