Cooking

COOK-AIR is capable of reaching very high temperatures in

record time. You must become familiar with the fan control to

master the intensity of the cooking heat.

CAUTION: Always remove excess fat from food and drain mar-

inated meat in order to reduce excessive flare-ups and smoke.

Contrary to other types of barbecue grills on the market, which

cannot reach the high temperatures required to sear meat

(1,000F and +), COOK-AIR allows you to sear your meat and seal

Maintenance

As previously mentioned, the COOK-AIR is a high tech appliance.

Minimum and regular maintenance is enough to ensure years

of out door cooking enjoyment. To clean the combustion cham-

ber, first wait until the unit is cold, then:

1. First, set the fan on low (level1). Once the cooking grate is

removed, loosen ash residues in the combustion chamber

using the supplied brush in a circular motion.

2. Remove the ashes safely and make sure that there is no

residue left in the chamber. Make sure that the burner holes

inside the combustion chamber are clear of debris. If needed,

clean the holes with an ordinary paperclip.

COOK-AIR HINTS AND TIPS

in its natural juices. For meat 1 to 1.25" thick (2.5 - 3 cm), you just

have to sear it on high for 1 1/2 minute on each side. For meat

¾ inch thick (2 cm), one minute on each side will suffice.

Once the meat is seared, given the very high temperature rea-

ched by the COOK-AIR, it is advisable to frequently turn the

meat (every 60 seconds) until the desired cooking is reached.

To enjoy a new cooking experience, just before your food is

cooked, reduce the fan speed to level 1 and place the lid on the

grill. When fully ignited, the wood fuel produces a smoked

wood aroma that is absorbed by the food. Every variety of wood

fuel has its own characteristics and, consequently, produces a

unique flavour and incomparable taste.

To add wood fuel

If you must add wood fuel while cooking, turn the fan control

button to minimum speed (level 1).

Always use the supplied handle to slide the cooking grate.

NEVER PUT THE HOT COOKING GRATE DOWN ON ANOTHER

SURFACE, IT COULD DAMAGE IT.

Add wood to the combustion chamber using the tongs pro-

vided. Replace the cooking grate and reset the fan to the

required speed to resume cooking.

The lid should not be tightly closed except to smoke food that

is almost fully cooked. The fan must be set on minimum speed

(level 1) during this process.

3. Unit care:

• Protect your barbecue from bad weather

• Carefully dry your barbecue when wet

• Use the vinyl cover when transporting your COOK-AIR and

to protect it in storage

• Store in a cool, dry location

Storage

Before storing your COOK-AIR, clean the combustion chamber as

indicated above. Clean the cooking grate with regular household

cleaner and wipe all stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth.

Make sure that the unit is in the OFF position to avoid draining

the batteries. For seasonal storing or when transporting, remove

the batteries from the appliance.
