Follow these instructions when starting your barbecue grill.

Place the appliance on a flat, level surface at a convenient

cooking height.

1. Remove the cover and insert

the handle in one of the four

slots on the cooking grate (fig. 6),

then remove the cooking grate

to be able to access the com-

bustion chamber.

2. Place a 1/2 strip of previously

folded COOK-AIR fire starter

paper (fig. 7) at the bottom

of the combustion chamber. A

ball of crumpled news paper or

any type of chemicals free solid

fire starter may be used if you

do not have any COOK-AIR fire

starter paper.

Never, under any circumstances,

use lighter fluid, kerosene or any

other flammable liquid on COOK-

AIR fire starter paper or wood

fuel.

3. Ignite the COOK-AIR fire starter

using a long handled barbe-

cue lighter or fireplace match

(fig. 8).

4. Once the COOK-AIR fire starter paper is well ignited, use

tongs to carefully put one or more pieces of dry wood or one

ortwo pucks of COOK-AIR solid fuel on the fire starter in the-

bottom of the combustion chamber (fig. 9). Using the control

button, set the fan on low (level 1).

Never, under any circumstances, use charcoal with your COOK-

AIR grill.

5. Put the cooking grate back into place.

6. Wait 30 to 45 seconds and then, using the control button, set

the fan on high (level 5).

7. If necessary repeat the first steps to achieve full ignition.

STARTING YOUR COOK-AIR

About four or five minutes after ignition and depending on

the ambient temperature, your COOK-AIR should have rea-

ched its cooking temperature. Select the heat output requi-

red for the food you are cooking by varying the fan speed

using the control button and by adding wood as needed.

CAUTION: When operating the COOK-AIR for the first time,

light the appliance at least 10 to 20 minutes prior to use in

order to burn off any residue on the metal.

Wood fuel

COOK-AIR uses an advanced design and patented technology

combustion chamber to reach very high thermal and combus-

tion efficiencies.

It is recommended to use only dry hardwood species as fuel.

Green or wet wood can produce smoke and reduce heat levels,

some softwood can spark excessively.

COOK-AIR was designed to reach the highest combustion effi-

ciency and works best when using dry hardwood or COOK-AIR

solid wood fuel. It is therefore to your advantage to choose

these sources of fuel. All you need is a lighter!

If you wish, you can also prepare your own wood. To do so,

you will need very dry hardwood species, such as maple, ash,

hickory, apple or cherry. Each variety of hardwood will give

food a unique flavour. Hardwood chunks should be no thicker

than 5 cm by 5 cm (2'' x 2'') and no longer than 7.5 cm (3'').

Branches up to 5 cm (2'') in diameter can also be used if they are

cut in lengths no longer than 7.5 cm (3'').

You should be able to find various types of kindling in most

hardware stores and megastores that can be cut to the size

required for the COOK-AIR. You can also use hard wood lump

charcoal or wax-free and chemical-free ecological firelogs sold

in stores. They're easy to cut to the desired size using a hammer

and an awl or a screwdriver. They burn easily and produce lots

of heat.

For greater combustion efficien-

cy, the wood fuel should be piled

in the upper position, similar to

a campfire, in the combustion

chamber, which should never be

more than three quarters full.
