Location of Grill
Most importantly, this is an outdoor grill. Ensure your grill is positioned safely away from anything that
can catch fire. Under no circumstance is this grill to be used indoors. This includes garages or any
other enclosed or partially enclosed areas.
▪
Clearance from Combustibles:
Ensure your grill remains at a distance of at least 48” of the side, front,
and back from combustible surfaces such as wood, gyprock, paper, plants, cloth, rubber, plastics, and
fiberglass. Never install and/or use this Kamado grill on or around any combustible floor or surface at any
distance. Built in applications must be installed in non-combustible materials. Do not store combustible
materials, gasoline or flammable liquids or vapors around the grill. Do not use this unit under combustible
surfaces. Do not use this grill under cover whether permanent or temporary structure.
▪
Adequate Ventilation:
Ensure there is adequate ventilation for both the grill, grill cart and/or island
cavity. This is required not only for proper combustion, but also to prevent heat buildup. An
adequate flow of air into the lower front air intake is necessary for the grill’s performance and could
be dangerous if obstructed.
▪
Firm Level Surface:
Use your grill only on a firm level surface. This grill is not designed for recreational
vehicles, and should not be installed on a boat or marine craft.
▪
Protection from Weather:
Keep the grill protected from adverse weather, including rain and high winds.
Place the grill in an outdoor area that is protected from the wind. The exposure of the grill body to salt in
the air (either along the coast or by salt water pools), pool chemicals, garden fertilizers, countertop
chemicals (stone sealer) can accelerate the corrosion of the grill components. More regular cleaning of
the grill and covering of the unit will be required in these settings. Never store any chemicals near your
grill. Moisture allowed to enter the grill can create mold and could eventually spill out of the front air inlet
taking spent ash residue with it.
▪
Under covered enclosures:
Many backyards have areas that are either completely enclosed or partially
closed off, such as balconies and pergolas. Do not use this grill inside a building or any other enclosed or
partially enclosed area. Remember to never use this grill in an undercover enclosure. Do not use this grill
under cover whether permanent or temporary structure.
