IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY • READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Read all instructions before using your Ninja® Foodi™ TenderCrisp™
Pressure Cooker .
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
WARNING
1
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.
2
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
cook only in the pot provided or
in a container recommended by
SharkNinja placed in the provided
pot.
DO NOT
use the appliance
without the removable cooking
pot installed.
3
To eliminate a choking hazard for
young children, remove and discard
the protective cover fitted on the
power plug of this appliance.
4
ALWAYS
ensure the appliance is
properly assembled before use.
5
DO NOT
touch hot surfaces.
Appliance surfaces 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 and knobs.
6
Intended for countertop use only.
Ensure the surface is level, clean,
and dry.
7
DO NOT
place appliance on or
near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.
8
This appliance cooks under
pressure. Improper use may
result in scalding injury. Make
certain unit is properly closed
before operating. See Operating
Instructions.
9
To protect against electrical shock
do not immerse cord, plugs,
cooker base, or crisping lid in
water or other liquid.
DO NOT
rinse these parts under the tap.
10
DO NOT
cover the pressure valves.
11
Unplug from outlet when not in
use and before cleaning. Allow
to cool before putting on or taking
off parts.
12
Extreme caution must be used
when the cooker contains hot
oil, hot food, or hot liquids, or
if the cooker is under pressure.
Improper use, including moving
the cooker, may result in personal
injury. When using this appliance
to pressure cook, ensure the lid is
properly assembled and locked
into position before use.
13
DO NOT
move the appliance
when in use.
14
Only use the side handles to carry
or move the appliance.
15
Removable cooking pot can be
extremely heavy when full of
ingredients. Care should be taken
when lifting pot from cooker base.
16
DO NOT
place food or liquid
directly into the unit without the
pot installed. Only the removable
cooking pot is designed to
contain food or liquid.
17
To prevent risk of explosion
and injury, use only SharkNinja
silicone rings. DO NOT use if torn
or damaged.
18
Before placing removable cooking
pot into the cooker base, ensure
pot and base are dry by wiping
with a soft cloth.
19
DO NOT
sauté or fry with oil while
pressure cooking.
20
NEVER
use SLOW COOK setting
without food and liquids in the
removable cooking pot.
21
DO NOT
use this appliance for
deep frying.
22
DO NOT
exceed the cooking pot’s
PRESSURE MAX fill level when
pressure cooking. Overfilling may
cause personal injury or property
damage or affect the safe use of
the appliance.
23
When pressure cooking foods that
expand (such as dried vegetables,
beans, grains, rice, etc.)
DO NOT
fill pot more than halfway, or as
otherwise instructed in a Ninja®
Foodi™ recipe.
24
ALWAYS
follow the maximum and
minimum quantities of liquid as
stated in instructions and recipes.
25
Foods such as applesauce,
cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal
or other cereals, split peas,
noodles, macaroni, rhubarb,
or spaghetti can foam, froth,
and splutter when pressure
cooked, clogging the pressure
release valve. These and similar
expanding foods (such as dried
vegetables, beans, grains, and
rice) should not be cooked in
a pressure cooker, except if
following a Ninja Foodi recipe.
26
Before use,
ALWAYS
check
pressure release valve and
red float valve for clogging or
obstruction, and clean them if
necessary. Check to make sure
the red float valve on the pressure
lid moves freely.
27
DO NOT
attempt to open the
lid during or after pressure
cooking until all internal pressure
has been released through the
pressure release valve and the
unit has cooled slightly. If the
lid will not turn to unlock, this
indicates the appliance is still
under pressure—
DO NOT
force
lid open. Any pressure remaining
can be hazardous. Let unit
naturally release pressure or turn
the Pressure Release Valve to the
VENT position to release steam.
Take care to avoid contact with
the releasing steam to avoid
burns or injury. When the steam is
completely released, the red float
valve will be in the lower position
allowing the lid to be removed.
28
ALWAYS
keep hands, face, and
other body parts away from
the pressure release valve prior
to or during pressure release.
Additional steam may escape
when opening the pressure lid.
29
DO NOT
use a damaged
removable cooking pot, silicone
ring, or lid. Replace before using.
30
ALWAYS
ensure silicone ring is
installed and lid is properly closed
before operating.
31
Close adult supervision is
necessary when this appliance
is near children.
