• Burning charcoal gives o carbon monoxide. Do not burn charcoal inside homes, garages, tents, vehicles or

any enclosed areas.

• Keep children and pets away from the Dual Fuel when operating.

• Never leave the Dual Fuel unattended while in use.

• Minimum clearance to adjacent combustible materials: Minimum of 36˝ (91.44 cm) from furthest protruding

edge on all sides of the Dual Fuel barbecue.

• Keep the Dual Fuel on a secure, level surface at all times.

• Do not operate the Dual Fuel under any overhead construction, such as roof coverings, carports, awnings

or overhang.

• Do not move the Dual Fuel when hot or in operation.

• Do not locate in windy settings. High winds adversely aect cooking performance.

• Do not use gasoline, alcohol, lighter ﬂuid, or other highly volatile ﬂuids to ignite charcoal.

• Do not remove ashes from the ash collection until charcoal is completely extinguished and cooled.

• Keep the lid closed during the preheat period, with vents fully opened.

• Never touch the cooking grate, charcoal grate, the charcoal, ash catcher, or the exterior of the barbecue or

kettle lid during or after use.

• Only put charcoal on the charcoal grate. Do not place charcoal directly into the ﬁre bowl, ash catcher,

directly on the burner, or on the cooking grate.

• Barbecue mitts should always be worn while cooking, adjusting air vents, adding charcoal, and handling the

lid. Use proper barbecue tools, with long, heat-resistant handles.

• Do not use water to control ﬂare-ups or to extinguish charcoal, as it may damage the porcelain ﬁnish. Close

air vents and replace the lid to extinguish charcoal.

• To control ﬂare-ups, slightly close the vents. To completely extinguish ﬁre, close all vents and lid completely.

• Do not remove ashes from ash catcher until all charcoal is completely burned out and fully extinguished.

Allow ample time to cool

DANGER

SAFE USAGE

OPENED CLOSED

1. Open the lid. Remove cooking grate. Ensure the

charcoal grate is in position.

2. Open all air vents before building the ﬁre.

Charcoal requires oxygen to burn, so be sure

nothing blocks the vents.

3. Arrange the charcoal onto the charcoal grate in

an even layer, or pile the charcoal in the middle

of the grate, if both direct and indirect cooking is

needed.

4. Re-position the cooking grate.

5. Turn gas supply on at least one turn, slowly.

WARNING

Do not use any ﬂammable liquids such as lighting ﬂuids, gasoline, any accelerants or electric

charcoal starter, any other form of self-lighting charcoal at any time, including when manually

lighting. Failure to follow this instruction may cause serious bodily injury or death.

THIS PRODUCT LIGHTS WITH GAS ONLY.

The Instastart™ Charcoal Ignition Burner uses a gas ignition system to take the

hassle out of lighting charcoal briquettes.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

6. Press in and turn your charcoal ignition burner to

the ON position.

7. Press your Instastart™ ignition button and

charcoal lighting burner will light, starting the

charcoal for you.

8. After charcoal has ignited (approximately 5

minutes), press in and turn the gas ignition

burner to the OFF position.

NOTE:

If using BOTH the GAS BARBECUE and the

CHARCOAL COOKOUT at the same time, turn

off the gas source AFTER you have completed

cooking on the Revolution™ gas barbecue.

If ONLY using the Charcoal COOKOUT turn the

gas source OFF after turning the charcoal ignition

burner OFF.

9. Close lid and allow the charcoal to burn.

10. You can begin cooking when briquettes have a

light coating of gray ash (approximately 15-20

minutes).

11. Consult your recipe for recommended cooking

times. Use a temperature probe to check

doneness.

WARNING

Do not lean over open barbecue while

lighting.

OPENED CLOSED

ALWAYS do a visual check of charcoal lighting burner. If you

experience one of the symptom listed below, follow the burner

cleaning procedure (p. 13 Coleman®Safe Use and Care Manual) or

reset the regulator ﬂow limiting device (p. 4 and 6 Coleman®Safe

Use and Care Manual):

• The ﬂames do not appear to be uniform throughout the burner tube

• The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner ﬂames appearing yellow

and lazy

• Charcoal is not lighting

WARNING

Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of gas and often build nests inside burners. At ﬁrst

sight of yellow, unruly ﬂames, or poorly lit burners, shut down your BBQ and remove and clear

obstructions, like insect webs, from your burners and valve gas jet. See p. 10 of Coleman®Safe Use

and Care Manual for more information on Flash Back Fire.

WARNING

Lighting your burners without ﬁrst cleaning the venturi tubes, port holes, and interior of your

burners, can lead to a serious Flash-Back ﬁre resulting in property damage and/ or personal injury.

See p. 13 of Coleman®Safe Use and Care Manual for burner cleaning procedure.

WARNING

o Do not hold hand directly above burner when manually lighting.

o Do not lean over open barbecue while lighting.

CAUTION

Flame may be hard to see on a bright day.

BURNER FLAME CHECK

• Approximately 50 briquettes (1.5 kg / 3.3 lb).

• Charcoal recommendations are approximate. Longer cooking times, cold or windy temperatures will require

that additional charcoal be added to reach and maintain ideal cooking temperatures.

WARNING

Always wear protective gloves. Always use long handled heat resistant tongs for loading additional

charcoal.

1. Open the charcoal lid.

2. Move food to one side of the cooking grate.

3. To access the charcoal grate, lift the hinged portion of the cooking grate.

4. Load approximately 12-20 additional briquettes (390 g - 520 g / 0.86 lb - 1.15 lb) for each additional hour

of cooking required.

ATTENTION

Never leave your barbecue unattended while in use.

HOW MUCH CHARCOAL IS REQUIRED?

ADDING CHARCOAL DURING COOKING

PUTTING OUT THE FIRE

Once cooking is complete, follow these steps to extinguish the ﬁre:

1. Using protective gloves, close the kettle lid.

2. Close all vents.

NOTE:

Assume that it will take at least 1 hour for your charcoal to extinguish and your barbecue to cool down.

There is not an ON or OFF switch for a charcoal ﬁre. Always be cautious about making any assumptions

about when the ﬁre is completely out and completely cool.

WARNING

o Do not store your Dual Fuel until ash and coals are fully extinguished.

o Allow charcoal to burn out before removing to avoid a possible ﬁre.

o Never dump hot coals where they might be stepped on or be a ﬁre hazard.

o Never dump ashes or coal before they are fully extinguished.

Oxygen is an essential part of building a proper ﬁre, elevating and stabilizing cooking temperatures

and controlling cooking times. The charcoal kettle comes equipped with three air intake controls.

FEATURES LIGHTING & COOKING

During lighting and operation all vents

should be in the OPEN position. More air

increases the burning temperature of the

coals.

SHUT DOWN

Closing the vent either partially or

completely will help to cool down the

coals. Less air decreases the burning

temperature.

Lid Vent

Fire Bowl Vent

Ash Sweep

The Ash Sweep functions as both a

cleaning tool for eliminating ash from the

ﬁrebowl, and also an air intake control

while cooking.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

5. Grasp the ash sweep handle and move back

and forth until most of the ash is swept into the

ash catcher. Use a hand broom for any leftover

residue in the ﬁre bowl.

6. With your heat resistant ash container handy,

remove the ash catcher from its position and

carefully dump all ashes into a heat resistant

container. Allow it to sit for 24 hours.

ASH REMOVAL

1. Ensure that the ash catcher is in position.

2. Ensure that the ﬁre bowl vent is closed.

3. Once you are sure that the ash has cooled, open

the lid and remove the cooking grate.

4. Sweep all ash and debris from the charcoal grate

into the lower ﬁre bowl. Dispose of any larger

pieces of charcoal.

Remove ash catcher, only after the charcoal has been extinguished and allowed to cool.

TIP:

A pile of ash left in the ash catcher can collect moisture and make cleanup a challenge. Clean the ash catcher

after every use.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION

o DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR STEEL WOOL on cooking or charcoal grate or any

painted, porcelain or stainless steel parts.

o Porcelain enamel components must be handled with additional care. The baked-on enamel ﬁnish is

glass-like, and will chip if struck.

FIRE BOWL AND LID

• Use a plastic paint scraper to remove build-up, food residue and ash from inside the kettle ﬁre bowl and lid.

• If necessary, wash the interior and exterior of the kettle lid and ﬁre bowl with a warm detergent and water

solution. Always rinse and dry thoroughly before re-installing parts.

• Spray a light coating of vegetable cooking spray on the interior surfaces of your kettle for added protection,

only when cool.

ASH CATCHER

• Always wait for ash and grease to cool before removing the ash catcher and dumping in a non-combustible

container.

• Wash the ash catcher with soap and water, rinse and dry thoroughly before replacing.

COOKING GRATE

• Always perform a burn-o and clean-up with your brass grill brush, at the START of your cooking session,

during preheat. Leftover oil on your cooking grate will help to protect it in between cooking sessions.

• If necessary, wash cooking grate with soap and water. Do not immerse grate in water.

• Rinse and dry thoroughly with a towel.

STORAGE

• Once all surfaces are clean and dry, cover your kettle with a full length cover to protect surfaces from dirt

and moisture. If storing for long periods, it is recommended to remove the cooking grate and charcoal

grates and store in a dry place.

• If storing your barbecue in a garage or on a concrete ﬂoor, it is recommended to place a large piece of

cardboard underneath the barbecue to protect from moisture.

• Always store charcoal in a cool, dry place.

COOKING TIPS

• All vents must remain OPEN during lighting and cooking.

• Meat thermometers help you make sure that meats are cooked to the desired temperature.

• Prevent food from sticking and protect your grates from moisture by spreading vegetable oil or shortening

on a COLD, UNLIT cooking grate.

• Trimming fat from meat helps to avoid ﬂare-ups and makes for healthier food.

• Apply sauces at the end of the cooking.

• Leave space around each food item on the grate to allow for even cooking and smoke penetration.

• Turn meat just once on the grill. For steaks, turn them when the juices start to bubble on the uncooked side.

The clearer the juice, the more well-done the meat.

• Avoid cross contamination. Use separate trays for uncooked and cooked food.

• Brush the grilling surface (once it’s cooled) with a wired brush to remove any stuck on food.

• If the charcoal is damp or wet, we recommend discarding it, as the performance will be drastically reduced.

NOTE:

Assume that it will take at least 1 hour for your charcoal to extinguish and your barbecue to cool down.

There is not an ON or OFF switch for a charcoal ﬁre. Always be cautious about making any assumptions

about when the ﬁre is completely out and completely cool.

WARNING

For your families safety, do not attempt to light the kettle until you have reviewed this manual.

WARNING

Lid, lid handle and ﬁre bowl may be hot to the touch. Always wear protective, heat resistant grilling gloves

while using your barbecue.
