WARNINGS AND IMPORTANT

SAFEGUARDS

5

• Be careful when removing food from grill. All surfaces are HOT and may

cause burns. Use protective gloves/mitts or long, sturdy cooking tools for

protection from hot surfaces or splatter from cooking liquids.

• Do not touch HOT surfaces.

• Grill is HOT during use. To avoid burns, keep face and body away from

vents and when opening lid. Steam and hot air are expelled during use.

• When cooking above 350°F (175°C), carefully open the grill (or burp the

grill) each time you lift the grill dome to prevent ﬂashback – a surge of

white-hot heat caused by a rush of oxygen. Partially opening the lid 2-3

inches (5-8cm) and allowing heat to escape for about 5 seconds should

prevent this.

• Air dampers are HOT while the grill is in use and during cooling. Wear

protective gloves when adjusting.

• Grill has an open ﬂame. Keep hands, hair and face away from ﬂame. Do

NOT lean over grill when lighting. Loose hair and clothing may catch ﬁre.

• DO NOT obstruct ﬂow of combustion and ventilation.

• Do not cover cooking racks with metal foil. This will trap heat and may

cause damage to the grill.

• Never leave HOT coals or ashes unattended.

• Fuel should be kept red hot for at least 30 minutes prior to use.

• Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.

• Do not remove ash drawer while ashes and charcoal are HOT.

• Use protective gloves when handling this grill or working with ﬁre. Use

protective gloves or long, sturdy tools when adding wood or charcoal.

• Never use charcoal lighting ﬂuid, gasoline, alcohol or other highly

volatile ﬂuids to ignite charcoal. These ﬂuids can explode and cause injury

or death.

• The maximum amount of charcoal for the Classic II is 6 lbs. (2.7 kg). Never

overﬁll charcoal grate. This can cause serious injury as well as damage to

the grill.

• Dispose of cold ashes by placing them in aluminum foil, soaking with water

and discarding in a non-combustible container.

• Do not cook before the fuel has a coating of ash.

• WARNING! This barbecue will become very hot, do not move it during

operation.

ﬁrelighters complying to EN 1860-3!

• WARNING! Keep children and pets away.

• Do not use the barbecue in a conﬁned and/or habitable space e.g. houses,

tents, caravans, motor homes, boats. Danger of carbon monoxide

poisoning fatality.

Grill Set-Up

UNBOXING YOUR GRILL

1 Cut the plastic bands and remove the top and side panels of

the shipping container.

2 Lift off the top piece of the grill cart and remove the plastic

from the top of the grill.

3 Open the dome of the grill and remove the components from

the inside of the grill. Handle the internal ceramic parts with care

.

KAMADO JOE GRILL WITH CART

1 Once the internal components of the grill have been removed,

lift the grill out of the container and set it aside. Due to the weight

of this grill, we highly recommend two people perform this task.

Do NOT lift the grill by the side shelf tabs. Use the rear hinge

and the front lower vent opening as lifting points.

2 Remove the plastic wrapping from the base of the grill cart.

3 Lock the casters on the bottom portion of the grill cart.

Assemble the two pieces of the grill cart with the provided

stainless steel screws which are preassembled to the bottom

portion of the cart.

4 With the same lifting technique used previously, lift the grill

into the cart. Adjust the grill in the cart so the lower grill vent is

facing the front of the cart. The front side of the cart is the side

with the two locking casters.

Safety Information

HINGE

Do not attempt to disassemble the hinge or loosen bands from your grill without

the hinge disengagement tool kit.

NOTE: Hinge disengagement tool kit (spacer, washer, and hex nut are

included). Store these parts in case the hinge needs to be removed later.

The hinge cannot be removed safely without these parts.

Use the bottom face and the front lower vent opening as lifting points (Do

not lift the grill by the hinge, bands brackets or handle as this could cause

the dome to become dislodged from the band).

Only minor adjustments to the weight of the dome should be made per the

instructions on page 16.

GASKET

Self-cleaning through natural heat cycle recommended.

Do not use chemical based cleaners on the gasket.

If absolutely necessary, gently wipe off any spills or moisture. Do not scrub or

abrade the gasket if cleaning. Excessive rubbing can cause wear.

Hinge and band is under high tension, failure to follow instruction steps in order

may result in severe injury.

Latch Adjustments

CLASSIC II LATCH

The latch on your Classic II is already preset for an ultra-tight seal.

Use these instructions if any adjustments should be needed.

To tighten and loosen the latch setting, use a small Allen wrench. Adjust the

set screw to lower the latch plate and add the spacer. Once the spacer is added,

reinstall the latch plate by tightening the set screw.

15

Your Kamado Joe grill is made of quality materials, so general

care and maintenance is minimal. The best way to protect your

Kamado Joe from the elements is with a grill cover.

Light cracked porcelain called crazing is part of the natural

characteristic.

Cleaning & Care

SELF-CLEANING

1 Add charcoal and light it.

2 Install the Divide & Conquer® ﬂexible cooking rack in the top

position and both heat deﬂectors on the accessory rack.

3 Open the top and bottom air vents fully and let the

temperature inside the grill rise to 600°F (315°C) with the

dome closed.

4 Hold the temperature at around 600°F (315°C) for 15-20 minutes.

5 Close the bottom vent fully and wait another 15-20 minutes to

close the top vent.

This process will burn off any unwanted residue from the inside

of your grill. Before cooking again, brush the cooking grate with

a standard grill brush. Use a soft bristle brush on the ceramics

to remove any residue. Your heat deﬂector plates should also

be free of burned on residue after this process. Brush them

down with a soft bristle brush after cleaning. When your heat

deﬂectors get dirty during normal use, ﬂip them over with the

dirty side down for the next cook and the heat from the ﬁre will

self-clean that side of the deﬂector plate.

Once or twice a year, you should do a more thorough cleaning

of the inside of the grill. Remove the internal components and

remove any residual ash or debris that has collected between

the grill body and the internal components. Use a plastic

bristle brush to clean the inside ceramic surface and scoop or

vacuum debris from the bottom of the grill before replacing the

internal components.

Classic Air Lift Hinge Adjustments

Caution: Air Lift Hinge under high tension.

CLASSIC

1 Open the dome of your Kamado Joe Classic grill.

2 With the dome open, place the 7mm wrench on the ﬂats on

the screw (see Inset 1).

3 Place the 9/16 inch wrench on the nut on top of the spring

retainer (see Inset 1).

4 To make the dome easier to raise, hold the 7mm wrench

stationary and rotate the 9/16 inch wrench clockwise as shown.

Remove the wrenches and check the dome action for every full

rotation of the nut. If you want the dome to feel heavier, rotate

the nut counter-clockwise. Remove the wrenches and check the

dome action for every full rotation of the nut. Do not adjust the

nut so that it contacts the nut under the connector (see Inset 1).

The Air Lift Hinge on your Kamado Joe Classic is already

pre-adjusted for ideal balance and stability. Follow these

instructions for any additional adjustment to suit your

personal preferences.

Quick Start Guide

STARTING IT UP

1 Add charcoal to ﬁrebox and light using one or two ﬁre starters.

2 Leave dome open for 10 minutes with the bottom vent fully open.

3 Close the dome.

4 Begin closing the top vent and bottom vent when the dome

temperature is within 50°F (10°C) of your target.

MAINTAINING TEMPERATURE

To lower the temperature, decrease the airﬂow through the

grill by closing the vents. Conversely, raise the temperature by

opening the vents. Adjustments to the vents are not immediate—

allow 10–15 minutes for a vent change to take effect. Because

your ceramic Kamado Joe retains heat so well, it can take some

time to fully heat. Give your grill 20–40 minutes to an hour to

stabilize the temp before you start cooking.

COOLING IT DOWN

1 When ﬁnished cooking, close the bottom vent completely.

2 Once the temperature falls below 400°F (205°C), close the top

vent almost completely, but leave a small crack.

3 Do not cover the grill until the dome is cool to the touch.

TO LOWER THE TEMPERATURE, CLOSE THE VENTS.

TO RAISE THE TEMPERATURE, OPEN THE VENTS.

QUICK TEMPERATURE GUIDE

Approximate temperatures for cooking techniques.

CAUTION

BURP

When cooking above 350°F (175°C), carefully open the grill (or burp the

grill) each time you lift the grill dome to prevent ﬂashback.

LIQUIDS

Do not spill liquids inside or on the grill while it is hot.

SIDE SHELVES

Do not set hot items on the side shelves.

SPARKS

Be aware of sparks and embers when using the grill on a wooden deck.

DURING OPERATION

Do not leave your grill unattended with the grill dome open.
