ABOUT YOUR CERAMIC CHARCOAL BARBECUE
Ceramic charcoal barbecues are extremely versatile. Not only can
they be used for grilling or smoking, but also pizzas, bread, pies and
cookies can be baked effortlessly inside them.
Due to their excellent heat-retention properties, high temperatures
can be achieved and maintained by precise control of airflow via
the top and bottom vents. High temperatures are ideal for quickly
cooking burgers and sausages, while low heats can cook larger cuts
over a longer period of time.
Try adding some wood chips to the charcoal, or try combining different
flavour wood chips to make your meats even more flavourful.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
This product is intended for outdoor use only. Do not use indoors.
Never leave a burning fire unattended. Always keep children and pets
at a safe distance from the oven when in use.
  May emit hot embers while in use.
     Never light this
product, or let it smolder or cool down in confined spaces.
Do not use this product in a tent, caravan, car, cellar, loft or boat. Do
not use this ceramic unit as a furnace.
 Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or
other similar chemicals for lighting or relighting. Use only firelighters
complying to 1860-3.
It is highly recommended that you use lump charcoal in your ceramic
barbecue. It burns for longer and produces less ash, which can restrict
the airflow. Do not use coal in this product. Charcoal not included.
 When opening the lid at high temperatures it is
essential to lift the lid only slightly, which allows air to enter slowly
and safely, preventing any back-draft or flare-ups that may cause
injury. Do not use under any awnings, parasols or gazebos.
Always follow the cooking temperature guide stated in this
instruction manual.
Do not use the ceramic charcoal barbecue on decking or any other
combustible surfaces such as dry grass, wood chips, leaf mulch,
or decorative bark. Ensure that the ceramic charcoal barbecue is
positioned at least two meters away from flammable items.
 This product will become very hot. Always use heat
-resistant gloves when handling hot ceramics or cooking surfaces.
Allow the unit to cool down completely before moving or storing. Do
not move it during operation.
Always inspect the unit prior to use for fatigue and damage, and
replace as and when necessary.

  
FIRST USE - CURING THE UNIT
Curing your ceramic charcoal barbecue is important for its long-term
operation and care. Avoiding the curing procedure could lead to
damage on the unit. If the first burns are too hot, they could damage
the felt gasket seal before it has had the chance to mature with use.
To start your first fire, place one lighter cube, or solid firelighters and
one handful of lump charcoal on top of the charcoal plate (7). Open
the bottom vent and light the lighter cube using a long-nosed lighter
or safety matches.
Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other similar
chemicals for lighting or relighting.
Once the lump charcoal has caught, cure the unit by closing the lid,
and leaving both vents mostly closed. See Cooking Temperature
Guide for Smoking (83ºC - 108ºC / 180ºF - 225ºF). Burn until
all the fuel is used and the fire is extinguished. This should take
approximately two hours. Do not overload the unit with fuel.
After first use, inspect all fasteners. The metal band connecting your
lid to the base will expand from the heat and could become loose. It
is recommended you check and tighten the band, if necessary, with a
wrench. You can now use your ceramic charcoal barbecue as normal.
LIGHTING
When using the ceramic charcoal barbecue, push down on both of
the locking wheels to stop the unit from moving around during use.
Ensure the ceramic barbecue is positioned on a permanent, flat, level,
heat-resistant non-flammable surface, away from flammable items.
Position the ceramic charcoal barbecue with a minimum of 2 m
overhead clearance and at least 2 m clearance from other surrounding
items.
1. To start a fire, place rolled-up newspaper and some lighter cubes
or solid firelighters on the charcoal plate (7), in the base of the
ceramic charcoal barbecue. Then, place two or three handfuls of
lump charcoal over the top of the newspaper.
2. Do not use gasoline, white spirit, lighter fluid, alcohol or other
similar chemicals for lighting or relighting.
3. Open the bottom vent and light the newspaper using a long-
nosed lighter or safety matches. Once it has caught, leave the
bottom vent and lid open for about 10 minutes to build a small
bed of hot embers.
4. Allow the charcoal to heat up and keep it red hot for at least
30 minutes prior to the first cooking on the ceramic charcoal
barbecue. Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.
5. It is recommended that you do not stoke or turn the coals once
they are alight. This allows the charcoals to burn more uniformly
ENGLISH
5
and efficiently.
6. Once alight, only use heat-resistant gloves when handling hot
ceramics or cooking surfaces.
Read through this manual for a complete detailed guide on cooking
temperatures for grilling.
REFUELING
With the top and bottom vent closed, the ceramic charcoal barbecue
will stay at a high temperature for several hours.
If you require a longer cooking time (e.g. when roasting a whole cut
or slow-smoking), it may be necessary to add more charcoal. Open
the lid, add additional charcoal, and continue to cook as directed in
this manual.
EXTINGUISHING
To extinguish unit: stop adding fuel and close all the vents and the lid
to allow the fire to die naturally.
Do not use water to extinguish the charcoal as this could damage the
ceramic charcoal barbecue.
STORAGE
When not in use, and if stored outside, cover the ceramic charcoal
barbecue, once completely cooled, with a suitable grill cover.
It is recommended the ceramic charcoal barbecue be stored under
cover in a garage or shed over winter for complete protection.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The ceramic charcoal barbecue is self-cleaning. Heat it up to 260ºC /
500ºF for 30 minutes and it will scorch off all food and debris.
NOTE: Do not use water or any other types of cleaning product to
clean the inside of your ceramic charcoal barbecue. The walls are
porous and will absorb any fluids used, which could cause the ceramic
charcoal barbecue to crack.
After the ceramic charcoal barbecue has cooled, if the soot becomes
excessive, use the ash tool (14) to scrape off the carbon remnants
before the next use. Carefully open the bottom vent and rake the
soot into a small waste container under the vent opening. Dispose of
container, or store for future use (soot).
To clean the grills and grates, use a non-abrasive cleaner once the unit
has fully cooled. The chrome-plated cooking grill is not dishwasher
safe; use a mild detergent with warm water.
To clean the outer surface, wait until the ceramic charcoal barbecue
is cool and use a damp cloth with a mild detergent. It is important
to check and tighten the bands, and oil the hinges, twice a year or
more if needed. You should not be able to easily turn a hex key while
holding the nut in place.

GENERAL FOOD SAFETY
Read and follow this advice when cooking on your ceramic charcoal
barbecue:
Do not cook until the fuel has a coating of ash.
Before cooking, ensure grill surfaces and tools are clean and free
of old food residues.
Always wash your hands before and after handling uncooked
meat, and before eating.
Do not use the same utensils to handle cooked and uncooked
foods. Always keep raw meat away from cooked meat, and
other foods.
Ensure all meat is cooked thoroughly before eating.
CAUTION: Eating raw or undercooked meat can cause food poisoning
(e.g. bacteria strains such as E.coli). To reduce the risk of undercooked
meat, cut open to ensure it is cooked all the way through.
CAUTION: If the meat has been cooked sufficiently, the meat juice
should be clear and there should be no traces of pink/red juice,
or meat colouring. Precooking larger pieces of meat and cuts is
recommended before finally cooking on your grill.

Proper cleaning, maintenance and the use of clean, dry, quality fuel will prevent common operational problems. When your Pit
Boss barbecue is operating poorly, or on a less frequent basis, the following trouble shooting tips may be helpful.
WARNING: To perform any inspection, cleaning, maintenance or service of your unit, ensure the barbecue is completely
cooled to avoid injury.
For FAQ, please visit

and click "Support". You may also contact your local Pit Boss authorized dealer or
Customer Service for assistance.
PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION
Bottom damper
will not slide
Stiff from storage Tap the damper lightly with a rubber hammer to loosen. If no improvement, contact Customer
Service.
Charcoal will not
light
Lack of oxygen Ensure that both the top and bottom vents are open. The fire needs oxygen to catch. Once it
has caught, leave the bottom vent and lid open for about 10 minutes to build a small bed of
hot embers.
Charcoal will not
stay lit
Lack of fuel There is not enough charcoal in the firebox. The recommended use of lump charcoal is a
maximum of 1.81kg / 4lbs per burn. Be sure not to overload the unit with fuel.
Barbecue is too hot Too much fuel and
oxygen
Close the lid, mostly close both vents, and allow the barbecue to smother with lack of oxygen.
For low temperature cooking, use less fuel. If the fire is too intense, the excessive heat could
damage the ceramic charcoal barbecue.
Barbecue is not hot
enough
Not enough fuel and
lack of airflow
Add more fuel and leave both vents completely open. More oxygen flow will allow the fire to
increase, burning more lump charcoal. Also, incorrect type of fuel is used. Briquettes do not
produce the same amount of heat as lump charcoal. The quality of lump charcoal will affect
the heat produced.
Frequent flare-ups Cooking temperature
too high
Attempt cooking at a lower temperature. Grease does have a flash point. Keep the temperature
under 176°C / 350°F when cooking highly greasy food.
Paint is chipped Regular wear of unit Contact Customer Service for touch-up paint. If chipping is substantial, call Customer Service.
Grill shows
cracking all over
Crazing finish The spider-web pattern of cracking is different from a break in the aspect that it cannot be
felt on the surface, unless using a fingernail; however, it does become more visually apparent
when the surface is dusty or magnified. While these may appear as imperfections, crazing
does not affect the performance or life span of your ceramic charcoal barbecue. The process
of crazing effectively increases the toughness of the unit.
Felt gasket seal is
melted
Unit was not cured
properly before use
Curing your ceramic charcoal barbecue is important for its long-term operation and care. If
the first burns are too hot, they could damage the felt gasket seal before it has had the
chance to mature with use. If the lid gets stuck, or sealed together with the base, use a knife
to carefully unseal and cut off the felt gasket that trims the lid opening. Once removed, you
will be able to open the lid. Before continuing to use the unit, replace the high-heat felt
gasket. Replace the gasket every few years for long-term use. Also, clean off any spills from
regular use.
Ceramic lid and
base not aligning
Regular wear of unit After every few uses, tighten the screws on the brace rings to account for heat expansion
during use.
Hairline cracks in
firebox
Regular wear of unit Due to expansion and contraction of the unit during use, small hairline cracks in the firebox
may appear; however, it does become more visually apparent when the surface is dusty
or magnified. While these may appear as imperfections, hairline cracks do not affect the
performance or life span of your ceramic charcoal barbecue.

CONDITIONS OF WARRANTY
The Ceramic series by Pit Boss, manufactured by Dansons Inc., carries
a Limited Lifetime Warranty from the date of sale by the original
owner only.
The warranty coverage begins on the original date of purchase and
proof of date of purchase, or copy of original bill of sale, is required
to validate the warranty.
CERAMIC PARTS
Dansons carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty on all ceramic parts used
to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons warrants
that all part(s) are free of defects in material and workmanship, for
the length of use and ownership of the original purchaser.
Warranty does not cover damage from wear and tear, such as
scratches, dents, dings, chips or minor cosmetic cracks. These
aesthetic changes of the grill do not affect its performance.
Upon close inspection, the finish of your ceramic charcoal barbecue
may appear to have crack lines. This is not cracking of the ceramic.
This is known as crazing and is caused by the different expansion
rates between the glaze finish and the clay.
The spider-web pattern of cracking is
different from a break in the aspect that
it cannot be felt on the surface, unless
using a fingernail; however, it does
become more visually apparent when
the surface is dusty or magnified. While
these may appear as imperfections,
crazing does not affect the performance or life span of your ceramic
charcoal barbecue; therefore, it is not a warranty issue. The process of
crazing effectively increases the toughness of the unit.
During the term of the limited warranty, Dansons’ obligation shall be
limited to furnishing a replacement for covered, failed components,
F.O.B. point of shipment.
METAL AND CAST-IRON PARTS
Dansons carries a five-year warranty on all metal and cast-iron parts
used to manufacture the ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons warrants
that all part(s) are free of defects in material and workmanship, for
the length of use and ownership of the original purchaser.
High temperatures, excessive humidity, chlorine, industrial fumes,
chemicals, fertilizers, lawn pesticides and salt are some of the
substances that can affect metal parts. For these reasons, the
warranty does not cover rust or oxidization.
Kindly refer to your manual for proper cleaning and maintenance of
your ceramic charcoal barbecue. Dansons recommends that you cover
ENGLISH
product. This warranty will not apply if your appliance has not been
installed, operated, cleaned and maintained in strict accordance with
the manual’s instructions. Burning poor or low-quality charcoal may
void the warranty.
All warranties by manufacturer are set forth herein and no claim
shall be made against manufacturer on any oral warranty or
representation. Whether a claim is made against the manufacturer
based on the breach of this warranty or any other type of warranty
expressed or implied by law, manufacturer shall in no event be liable
for any special, indirect, consequential or other damages of any
nature whatsoever in excess of the original purchase price of this
product.
Some locales do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, or limitations of implied warranties, so the
limitations or exclusions set forth in this warranty may not apply to
you.
Dansons does not authorize any person or representative to assume
for Dansons any obligation or liability in connection with the sale of
the ceramic charcoal barbecue. This means that no warranties, either
expressed or implied, are extended to persons who purchase the
product from any one other than Dansons or an authorized Dansons
Dealer.
As long as it is within the warranty period, Dansons will not charge
