Charcoal-Wood Chunks Grilling Safety Tips

before lighting.

Cap lighter fluid immediately and place a safe distance from grill.

Never add lighter fluid to coals that are already hot or warm.

Never use gasoline, kerosene, or other highly volatile fluids as a starter. They can explode.

As an alternative to lighter fluid, use an electric, solid, metal chimney or other starter specifically made for lighting charcoal briquettes or wood chunks.

Unplug and remove a hot starter with caution and be careful where you put it. Always cool starter completely before storing.

Never use an electric starter in the rain and/or when standing on wet ground.

When using instant light briquettes, do not use lighter fluid, electric, solid, or metal chimney-style starters. Do not add more instant light briquettes once the fire has been lit. Add only regular charcoal briquettes if more are needed.

Once the grill is lit, do not touch briquettes or wood chunks to see if they are hot. Keep grill uncovered until ready to cook.

Keep vents open while cooking. Charcoal briquettes and wood chunks need oxygen to burn.

Allow coals to burn out completely and let ashes cool at least 48 hours before disposing.

Dispose of cold ashes by wrapping in heavy-duty aluminum foil and placing in non-combustible container. Be sure no other combustible materials are nearby.

If you must dispose of ashes before completely cooled, place them in heavy duty foil and soak with water completely before disposing in non-combustible container.
