1
Remove and discard any packaging
material, promotional labels, and tape
from the unit.
2
Remove accessories from the package
and read this manual carefully. Please
pay particular attention to operational
instructions, warnings, and important
safeguards to avoid any injury or
property damage.
3
Wash the lid, silicone ring, removable
cooking pot, steam rack, and
condensation collector in hot, soapy
water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
NEVER
clean the cooker base or lid in
the dishwasher. Inspect the lid to ensure
the valves are clean of all debris.
INSTALLING THE
CONDENSATION COLLECTOR
To install the condensation collector, slide
it into the slot on the cooker base. To
remove the collector for cleaning, slide it
out of the base.
REMOVING & REINSTALLING
THE ANTI-CLOG CAP
Make sure your anti-clog cap is in the
correct position before using the lid. The
anti-clog cap protects the inner valve of
the lid from clogging and protects users
from potential food splatters. It should be
cleaned after every use with a cleaning
brush. To remove it, squeeze and pull
upward. To reinstall, position it in place
and press down.
NOTE:
Keep Warm mode is intended to
keep cooked food at a safe temperature,
NOT
to cook cold or raw food.
* A glass lid is also available for steaming and slow
cooking. To order, visit ninjaaccessories.com.
When setting time,
digital display shows
