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.
11
To protect against electrical shock
DO NOT
immerse cord, plugs, or main
unit housing in water or other liquid.
Cook only in the pot provided or in a
container recommended by SharkNinja
placed in the provided pot.

Before use,
ALWAYS
check pressure
release valve and float valve for
clogging or obstruction and clean them
if necessary. Check to make sure the
float valve on the pressure lid moves
freely. Foods such as apple sauce,
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 when
following a Ninja Foodi recipe.

DO NOT
cover the air intake vent, air
exhaust vent or electrical outlet while
crisping lid is closed. Doing so will
prevent even cooking and may damage
the unit or cause it to overheat.

use only SharkNinja silicone rings. Make
certain silicone ring is installed and lid
is properly closed before operating.
