Sparks and small pieces of charcoal may pop out of the chimney. Ensure area surrounding the chimney (about 3 feet) is open and free of objects and people. Do not use water to extinguish the charcoal. Instead, cut off the oxygen supply to the charcoal and let it cool. Charcoal that is not completely burned can be reused again, provided that it is stored properly.
