Utilisation
Intended use
This is a charcoal barbecue that is intended for outdoor use. Intended use means only using the barbecue to prepare barbecue food, while observing and complying with all of the instructions in this manual. Only charcoal and barbecue briquettes should be used as fuel.
This barbecue is only intended for private use.
Unintended use
Any other use or application extending beyond the intended purpose is not permitted. This applies to the following types of misuse in particular:
- Do not use the barbecue as a heating appliance.
- Do not use any fuel other than approved charcoal or barbecue briquettes in the barbecue.
- Do not use the barbecue to heat materials and substances other than food that is suitable for barbecuing.
Guarantee claims and warranty
Your Landmann barbecue left the factory in a technically flawless condition.
In addition to your statutory warranty claims Landmann therefore also offers an extended 10 year quality and durability warranty against the fire bowl and lid rusting or burning through.
Any warranty and guarantee claims shall become void in the event of improper use of the barbecue or if non-approved fuel is used. Discolouration, rusting or slight deformation of parts exposed directly to the flames (cooking grill, charcoal grid, et cetera) do not impair the function of the barbecue and, as such, do not form a basis for any claims.
Please retain your receipt in case you need to make a warranty claim.

Residual risks

Danger: Explosive deflagration
Firelighters such as petrol, spirits and other similar fire accelerants are very dangerous for igniting the fuel (charcoal or barbecue briquettes), as they burn in an explosive manner when ignited.
This is particularly true if such accelerants are sprayed or poured onto hot fuel, as this can cause a flashback in the fuel container.
If hot charcoal or briquettes are extinguished with water, it creates an explosive deflagration as the water evaporates instantly.
Possible consequences:
- Severe personal injury or damage to property
Safety measures:
- Only use the barbecue outdoors and ensure that the area is well-ventilated.
- Only ignite the fuel (charcoal or barbecue briquettes) by using an approved firelighter (EN 1860-3).
- Do not lean over the barbecue when igniting the fuel.
- Never use water to extinguish hot charcoal or briquettes.

Danger: Carbon monoxide poisoning
Carbon monoxide is produced through the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous material such as charcoal or briquettes.
Carbon monoxide is odourless, colourless and non-irritating. Therefore, it does not trigger any warning effect in humans.
Possible consequences:
- Death or severe personal injury as a result of carbon-monoxide poisoning may occur in closed-up areas.

Danger: Burns and fire
During operation some parts of the barbecue can become very hot, particularly those close to the fire bowl and the lid. If a gust of wind enters the fire bowl, it can cause flying sparks and/or the formation of flames.
Possible consequences:
- Severe burns from touching hot parts.
- Fire or smoldering fire if flammable materials or substances are near the barbecue.
Safety measures prior to using the barbecue:
When setting up the barbecue, make sure that
- there are not, and will not be, any flammable materials or substances nearby. The minimum distance to flammable materials or substances is 5 m and the minimum distance to flame-resistant materials or substances, e.g. house walls, is at least 1 m. - the barbecue is protected from the wind. - the barbecue is positioned firmly on a sufficiently large surface area. It must not be moved during operation.
Safety measures while barbecuing:
- Wear protective barbecue gloves.
- Never leave the barbecue unattended. Take particular care to ensure that children and pets are kept away from the barbecue.
Safety measures after using the barbecue:
- Close the ventilation slots under the fire bowl so that less oxygen is supplied to the embers.
- Place the lid on the fire bowl so that the embers are covered.
- Open the vents in the lid so that the heat can escape.
- Monitor the barbecue until it has cooled down - only then should you clean it.
Assembly
Here are a few tips to help you assemble your barbecue quickly and successfully:
- Check that no parts are missing by placing all of the individual parts on an empty table (subject to minor technical changes).
- If, despite careful factory checks, a component should be missing, please contact our customer service department (see last page). We will immediately attend to your request.
- Only use tools that are intact and suitable for the job at hand. Worn or unsuitable tools will not allow you to tighten the bolts sufficiently, but will damage them to the extent that they can no longer be turned.
- Always fit all connecting elements (screws, nuts, bolts, et cetera) as shown in the illustrations. If you misplace a connecting element, replace it with an appropriate part. Only by doing this can you ensure that the construction is strong and safe.
- It is essential that you follow the instructions in the order they are specified!
- Even if you are not experienced at DIY, assembly does not generally take longer than one hour.

The illustrations showing the assembly steps are at end of this manual.

Operation
Getting to know the OptiHeat system
Thanks to their OptiHeat system, kettle barbecues in the black pearl series are the only barbecues in the world that enable height adjustment of the cooking grill.
If you need more information on the OptiHeat system, please refer to www.landmann.com.
Starting up the barbecue

Caution:
Please note the maximum permitted capacity of the barbecue with regard to charcoal and briquettes (see 'Technical specifications'). If the barbecue is overfilled it can result in damage.
Only use approved barbecue lighters (such as Landmann solid firelighters); never use petrol, spirits or other substances that are subject to deflagration when ignited.
Only use charcoal or barbecue briquettes as the fuel. We recommend using quality products from Landmann.
- Stack some charcoal or barbecue briquettes on the charcoal grid.
- Light one or two solid firelighters using a match. Place these firelighters on top of the layer of charcoal or briquettes.
- Allow the solid firelighters to burn for 2 to 4 minutes. Then slowly fill the fire bowl with charcoal or briquettes.

The first time you use the barbecue allow it to t up for approximately 20 minutes (with the lid ed) before adding any food; doing this will allow food-safe coating to harden (as is the case with oven).
- When the charcoal or briquettes are completely covered with a layer of ash, distribute them evenly in the fire bowl by using a suitable metal utensil (e.g. fire rake).
- Now insert the greased OptiHeat cooking grill and place the food to be cooked on top. Always wear barbecue mittens or gloves that protect your hands against the heat.
Switching off the barbecue
- Plan ahead before barbecuing. Only use the fuel you need to prepare your food.
- If you have finished preparing your food or want to temporarily interrupt the preparation process:
- Close the ventilation slots under the fire bowl so that less oxygen is supplied to the embers.
- Place the lid on the fire bowl so that the embers are covered.
- Open the vents in the lid so that the heat can escape.
- Do not leave the barbecue unattended while the fuel is still hot.
- Never pour water onto the hot embers, as it will cause the water to evaporate in an explosive manner.
– Never dispose of hot embers. Leave them in the barbecue until they have cooled down.
Cleaning

Danger: Risk of burning when cleaning barbecue
Some parts of the barbecue can become very hot. Allow the barbecue to cool down sufficiently before cleaning it. Wear protective gloves.
To make sure that you have many years of enjoyment with your barbecue you should always clean it after use - after making sure that all the parts have cooled down - with detergent, a brush and a cloth. This will be much harder to do later, once the soiling has dried.
Environmental information and disposal measures
Pay attention to cleanliness when handling the bar- becue.
To dispose of the barbecue properly, disassemble it into its individual parts. Recycle the metal and plastic components.
Observe the local regulations.
