Important Safeguards

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY • READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

[WARNING] Read all instructions prior to using the oven and its accessories.

[WARNING] This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

[WARNING] If food contents catch fire during cooking, DO NOT open the oven door.

[WARNING] To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, discard all packaging materials immediately upon unpacking.

[WARNING] Take an inventory of all contents to ensure you have all parts needed to properly and safely operate your oven.

[WARNING] DO NOT use an extension cord. A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk of children grabbing the cord or becoming entangled and to reduce the risk of people tripping over a longer cord.

[WARNING] NEVER use electrical socket below worktop level.

[WARNING] Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children. DO NOT allow the appliance to be used by children. Close supervision is necessary when used near children.

[WARNING] DO NOT let cord hang over edges of tables or worktops or touch hot surfaces, including stoves and other heating ovens.

[WARNING] NEVER leave the oven unattended while in use.

[WARNING] DO NOT place any object directly onto the heating elements and DO NOT cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with aluminum foil. This will cause the oven to overheat or cause a fire.

[WARNING] DO NOT use the oven with crumb tray incorrectly installed. Crumb tray MUST be placed below lower heating elements.

[WARNING] To protect against electrical shock DO NOT immerse cord, plugs or main unit housing in water or other liquid.

[WARNING] DO NOT use the oven with damage to the power cord or plug. Regularly inspect the oven and power cord. If the oven malfunctions or has been damaged in any way, immediately stop use and call Customer Service.

[WARNING] DO NOT cover the air intake vents or air socket vents while unit is operating. Doing so will prevent even cooking and may damage the unit or cause it to overheat.

[WARNING] DO NOT insert anything in the ventilation slots and do not obstruct them.

[WARNING] DO NOT place items on top of surface while unit is operating except for authorised recommended Ninja® accessories.

[WARNING] Before placing any accessories into the oven ensure they are clean and dry.

[WARNING] Intended for worktop use only. DO NOT place the oven near the edge of a worktop on or near a hot gas or electric burner. Ensure the surface is level, clean and dry.

[WARNING] This oven is for household use only. DO NOT use this oven for anything other than its intended use. Misuse may cause injury.

[WARNING] DO NOT store any materials, other than supplied accessories, in this oven when not in use.

[WARNING] Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of any materials other than metal or glass.

[WARNING] DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Oven surfaces and glass door are hot during and after operation. To prevent burns or personal injury, ALWAYS use protective hot pads or insulated oven mitts and use available handles.

[WARNING] Spilled food can cause serious burns. Extreme caution must be used when the oven contains hot food. Improper use may result in personal injury.

Parts and Accessories

Parts:

[IMPORTANT] Place crumb tray below lower heating elements. DO NOT slide into any rack positions.

Common-Sense Practices/Good Habits:

Accessory Placement

The oven has 4 available rack positions where your accessories can slide into the unit. When you select a function, the corresponding rack number(s) will illuminate on the control panel. The numbers on the control panel (see Fig. 1) will coincide with those on the interior of the unit. See the chart on page 10 for further details.

Diagram Description: The control panel shows rack levels 1, 2, 3, and 4. Accessories can be placed in these levels.

Before First Use

  1. Remove and discard any packaging material, promotional labels and tape from the unit.
  2. Remove all accessories from the package and read this manual carefully. Pay particular attention to operational instructions, warnings and important safeguards to avoid any injury or property damage.
  3. Wash the air fry basket, oven tray, wire rack, roasting rack and removable crumb tray in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly. DO NOT put oven tray, roasting rack or removable crumb tray in the dishwasher. Finishes may degrade. NEVER submerge the main unit in water.

We recommend placing all accessories inside the oven and running it on Roast at 230°C for 20 minutes without adding food. This removes any residues. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the performance of the oven.

[NOTE] The accessories are hand-wash recommended. The air fry basket and wire racks can be put in the dishwasher, but may wear more quickly over time.

Using the Control Panel

Functions

Once you've selected a function below, you can change temperature/shade and time/slices.

How to Correctly Insert the Smart Probe

Diagram Description: Diagrams show correct and incorrect insertion methods for the smart probe into various food types like tenderloins, fish, whole chicken, etc. The correct method involves inserting the probe horizontally into the thickest part of the meat, ensuring the tip is straight and not touching bone or gristle. Incorrect methods show angled insertion or insertion too close to bone.

FOOD TYPEPLACEMENTCORRECTINCORRECT
Tenderloins, Fish fillets, Whole fish, Prime rib, Lamb rack, Brisket, Pork Shoulder, Pork Loin, Chuck RoastInsert smart probe horizontally into the center of the thickest part of the meat.[Image of correct insertion][Image of incorrect insertion]
Make sure the tip of the smart probe is inserted straight into the center of the meat, not angled toward the bottom or top of it.
Make sure the smart probe is close to (but not touching) the bone and away from any fat or gristle. [NOTE] The thickest part of the fillet may not be the center. It is important that the tip of the smart probe hits the thickest part so desired results are achieved.
Whole chickenInsert probe horizontally into the thickest part of the breast, parallel to, but not touching, the bone. Make sure the tip reaches the center of the thickest part of the breast and doesn't go all the way through the breast into the cavity.[Image of correct insertion][Image of incorrect insertion]

[NOTE] DO NOT use the smart probe with frozen protein or for cuts of meat 2.5cm thick or thinner.
