START-UP & SAFETY CHECKS – Pre-Grilling Guide
GRILLING
Charcoal is recommended, however, wood or a combination of both may be used as the fuel source for
grilling with the fuel source placed and ignited on the lower charcoal pan. Do not build too large of a fire.
We recommend starting a fire with no more than 2 pounds of charcoal (approximately 30 briquettes) and
adding more as needed during cooking. After allowing the fire to burn down, now you can place secondary
fuel source on top height adjustable tray, like wood logs or other type of briskets . Failure to read and follow
instructions for lighting charcoal may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
GRILL MAINTENANCE
Frequency of cleanup is determined by how often the grill is used. Make sure coals are completely
extinguished before cleaning inside of the unit. Thoroughly rinse with water and allow to air dry before
using again. Wipe out the interior of the unit with a cloth or paper towels.
When finished cooking, and the unit has adequately cooled, clean out all remaining ashes. Ashes collect
moisture, which can lead to premature rusting and decay. Periodically coating the interior surfaces with
vegetable oil will aid in the protection of your unit.
Cooking Surface: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles
remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces w hile grill is
hot.
Start Up
Before you start cooking, clean the entire grill thoroughly with hot, soapy water. This is necessary to
remove residual solvents. Follow the steps below to insure proper safety when using your Sunstone
Charcoal Grill for the first time.
1. Brush all interior surfaces including grills and grates with vegetable cooking oil.
2. Slide Drip tray out, clean if necessary, to remove any residual grease or oil build up.
3. Build a small fire on the charcoal pan, being sure not to lay coals against the walls.
4. Close lid; position the top side hood vent ports at approximately one quarter turn open. This
burn should be sustained for at least two hours.
