Welcome
Cooking with your Kamado
Your new Vision Grills Kamado is the complete outdoor cooking appliance that allows you to
sear, grill, bake and smoke all types of food. For best results, we recommend using natural
lump charcoal made from hardwoods. Compared to briquettes, natural charcoals start faster,
burn cleaner and longer, reach higher temperatures and produce less ash. Left-over natural
charcoal also relights for re-use. Before re-starting the grill, knock off excess ashes to any
remaining charcoal. Routinely empty ashes, but only empty ashes when grill is cold.
Starting your Vision Kamado Grill is simple and fast: Open grill lid, open top and bottom vents
wide open, fill the inner fire bowl with enough charcoal to just cover the air holes, then light
the charcoal using either an electric starter or approved grill starters. After several coals are
burning, spread evenly, close lid, adjust top and bottom vents, and wait for the Kamado to
reach your desired cooking temperature. As needed, add more charcoal by using the flip grate
feature, being careful not to burn yourself with the hot food or cooking grate.
Welcome to Kamado cooking! Our Vision Grills PRO Kamado is based
on 3,000+ years of clay pot cooking from around the world. Over
generations our ancestors have continued to refine kamado
techniques for grilling, smoking, baking and cooking all types
of meats, poultry, fish and vegetables. Kamado cooking locks in
moisture and provides a variety of ways to infuse different tastes into your
foods that turns weekend grillers into neighborhood chefs.
Our Vision Grills PRO Kamado builds on this heritage with fresh aesthetics,
safety and convenience features, easy-lift KamadoMatic™ lid with spring
assist and high quality materials to define a new industry standard for
design and innovation. The thick ceramic construction of our grill provides
superior thermal insulation allowing you to grill, cook, bake or smoke
regardless of the season, from the hot summer days in our home town of
St. Louis to the cold snowy days in Ottawa, Canada.

WARNING
ATTENTION! Use caution when cooking, as grill surfaces get hot. To avoid burns, always use protective gloves
to adjust top and bottom vents when grill is in use. Do not wear loose clothing near the grill.
ATTENTION! This barbecue will become very hot, do not move it during operation. For outdoor cooking use only.
Do not operate grill indoors or in an enclosed space. Use grill only in well-ventilated areas. Keep immediate
area around the grill free from combustible materials. Allow for at least 3 feet/1 meter of clearance around
grill (house, other outdoor products, hanging tree limbs, shrubs, etc.)
WARNING! Keep children and pets away from the grill at all times.
Do not allow children to operate grill. Never leave grill unattended when in use.
Grill should be placed securely on a level base prior to use. Only operate grill on a hard, stable, level surface
(concrete patio, ground, etc.) capable of supporting the weight of the grill when loaded with food. Never
operate grill on wood support surface, wood deck or like combustible support surfaces. Never attempt
to move grill when in operation or cooling down. Never operate this grill within 25 feet/7.5 meters of any
flammable liquid. Never operate this grill within 10 feet/3 meters of a gas cylinder. The grill should not be
placed under combustible structures, like garages, porches, patios, or carports. Burning charcoal produces
carbon monoxide, an odorless gas, which can cause death.
The use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs may impair the operator’s ability to properly
assemble or safely operate the grill.
Do not use on boats or recreational vehicles.
CAUTION: Never use lighter fluid, gasoline, or other volatiles to start your charcoal, as it is dangerous and
will leave a residual taste in your food. NEVER use Charcoal Briquettes that contain starting chemicals or
additives. Use only firelighters complying to EN 1860-3. Use utmost care when adding charcoal to grill.
Dispose of cooled ash by placing it in aluminum foil, soaking with water and discarding in a non-combustible
container. Always wait for grill to completely cool before opening built-in ash drawer.

CAUTION: WAIT FOR GRILL TO BE COMPLETELY COOLED BEFORE PLACING
COVER ON GRILL. NEVER PLACE COVER ON GRILL THAT IS HOT OR WARM.
When cooking above 500ºF/260ºC, with both top and bottom vents closed,
rapidly opening the lid creates a sudden rush of oxygen into the grill, which
can cause a flare-up. When in this cooking mode, we recommend that, prior
to opening the lid, you open top and bottom vents to allow oxygen to stabilize
inside the grill, minimizing the possibility of a flare-up.
If using for outdoor kitchen, table, or enclosure a lava stone or paving stone
must be placed between bottom of grill and resting surface. Do NOT rest
ceramic grill body on wooden surface.
