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 use.
Remove and discard all packaging materials and labeling before use.
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 the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Take inventory of all contents to ensure you have all parts needed to properly and safely operate.
DO NOT run the unit without the crumb tray installed.
DO NOT run the unit in grill position without the grill tray fully inserted.
DO NOT override the grill tray detect switch.
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.
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.
DO NOT let cord hang over edges of tables or worktops or touch hot surfaces, including hobs and other heating ovens.
NEVER use an electrical socket below the worktop.
NEVER leave the toaster unattended while in use.
DO NOT cover the crumb tray or grill tray or any part of the unit with metal foil or baking parchment. This may cause the unit to overheat or cause a fire.
To protect against electrical shock DO NOT immerse cord, plugs, or main unit housing in water or other liquid.
DO NOT use the unit with damage to the power cord or plug. Regularly inspect the unit and power cord. If the unit malfunctions or has been damaged in any way, immediately stop use and call Customer Service.
Prevent food contact with heating elements. Excessive or oversized food loads, metal foil packages, or utensils must NOT be inserted as they may cause a risk of fire or electric shock.
Extreme caution must be used when the toaster contains hot food. Improper use may result in personal injury.
ALWAYS use the lightest toast setting when heating toaster pastries.
DO NOT cover the air intake vents or air electrical socket vents while the unit is operating. Doing so will prevent even cooking and may damage the unit or cause it to overheat.
DO NOT insert anything in the ventilation slots and do not obstruct them.
DO NOT use accessories and attachments not recommended or sold by SharkNinja.
DO NOT place items on top of the unit, including food, while the unit is operating except for authorized recommended Ninja accessories.
Before placing any accessories into the toaster ensure they are clean and dry.
Intended for worktop use only.
DO NOT place the oven near the edge of a worktop. Ensure the surface is level, clean, and dry.
This oven is for household use only.
DO NOT use this unit for anything other than its intended use. Misuse may cause injury.
DO NOT use outdoors. DO NOT use in moving vehicles or boats.
DO NOT operate in enclosed space or under cabinets.
Provide adequate space above (minimum 10”/254mm) and on all sides (minimum 4”/102mm) for air circulation.
DO NOT place anything on the toaster during operation. A fire may occur if the unit is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, or the like when in operation.
DO NOT spray any type of aerosol spray or flavoring inside the unit while cooking.
Use caution when inserting and removing anything from the unit, especially when hot.
Electrical socket voltages can vary, affecting the performance of your product. To prevent possible illness, use a thermometer to check that your food is cooked to the temperatures recommended.
DO NOT insert metal utensils such as a knife into the unit to remove jammed toast, bagels, or any other items. This can damage the heating elements or cause electric shock.
Unplug the unit before cleaning any food that becomes stuck or is spilled into the cavity.
DO NOT place any of the following materials in the unit: paper, cardboard, plastic, roasting bags, and the like. They may cause a fire.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of any materials other than metal or glass.
DO NOT touch hot surfaces. The unit’s surfaces are hot during and after the operation. To prevent burns or personal injury, ALWAYS use protective hot pads or insulated oven gloves and use available handles and knobs.
Please refer to the Cleaning & Maintenance section for regular maintenance of the unit.
Cleaning and user maintenance must not be done by children.
Press the power button to turn the unit off and allow it to cool completely before cleaning, moving, and flipping for storage.
Unplug from the electrical socket when not in use. To unplug, grasp the plug by the body and pull it from the electrical socket. Never unplug by grasping and pulling the flexible cord.
DO NOT clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, causing a risk of electrical shock.

Converting the Panini Press into a Grill tray

Lift up the top handle to separate the plates.
Push the PRESS tab on the left panini arm inward, sliding it off the grill tray pin.
Slide the right panini press arm of the grill tray pin.
Use as a grill tray for Grill, Bake, and Reheat functions.
Re-attach top plate for Panini function.

NOTE: To re-attach the panini press, align the right panini arm hole with the right grill tray pin. Push the PRESS tab and align the panini hole with the bake pin to slot it in place.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove and discard any packaging material and tape from the unit. Some stickers are to be permanently kept on the unit, ONLY remove stickers with ‘peel here’.
Remove all accessories from the box and read this manual carefully. Please pay particular attention to operational instructions, warnings, and important safeguards to avoid any injury or property damage.
Separate the panini press from the grill tray following the instructions listed in the Converting the Panini Press into a Grill tray section. Then wash the panini press and grill
tray in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. NEVER submerge the main unit in water.
We recommend placing the grill tray inside the toaster and running it on GRILL HIGH for
10 minutes without adding food. Refer to the section below FLIPPING TO GRILL POSITION for how to use the toaster on GRILL mode. Make sure the area is well ventilated. This removes any packaging residue and odor traces that may be present. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the performance of the toaster.

NOTE: For the longest life, we recommend hand-washing the accessories.
For best results, remove the panini press from the grill tray and wash separately.

NOTE: These are default times on first use when the unit is cold. Times will vary when the unit has heated up.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING YOUR SHADE SELECTION

With multiple slices, place them next to each other. Make sure there is no overlap of the slices so they can toast consistently. If bread slices do not fit next to each other, try rotating them sideways for a better fit.
For drier or stale bread, adjust the shade lower than your standard setting.
For freshly baked or whole wheat bread, adjust the shade higher than your standard setting.
Sweet or fruit bread (fruit loaf, tea cakes) toast much quicker, adjust the shade setting lower.
For bread with an uneven surface (like English muffins), adjust the shade higher than your standard setting. Be sure to slice bread evenly for consistent toasting.
For thick-cut pieces, adjust the shade higher than your standard setting. Be sure to slice bread evenly for consistent toasting.
Split bagels in half before toasting. Place the cut side facing you.
For frozen waffles, frozen French toast or frozen bagels ensure you also press the Defrost button to add extra time.
Be aware that very thin slices may burn.
Use the lowest shade selection and monitor while toasting.

Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the main unit and the control panel.
A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used. Apply the cleanser to the cloth, not the unit surface, before cleaning.

POWER CORD MANAGEMENT

ERROR MESSAGES & FAQ

ERROR MESSAGES
“CALL CUSt SrVC” followed by “Er1,” “Er2,” “Er3,” “Er4,” “Er5,” “Er6,” or “Er7”.
Power off the unit and call Customer Service at 0800 862 0453. So we may better assist you, please register your product online at ninjakitchen.co.uk/registerguarantee and have
the product on hand when you call.

FAQ
Why won’t the unit turn on?

Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the electrical socket.
Try plugging the cord into a different electrical socket.
Press the Power ****button.
If the issue persists after following the steps above, contact customer service.

Why aren’t the Grill functions illuminated when the unit is in the horizontal position?

Make sure the toast lever is pushed all the way back to open the cooking cavity. You will hear a click when the lever is fully pushed back.
Make sure the flip foot is on the bottom of the unit.

Can I look at my food while the unit is cooking?

Yes, in the horizontal mode you can remove the grill tray at any time to check on your food.
The cook time will pause until you reinsert the tray.
In the vertical position, you can lift the toast lever at any point to check on progress without canceling toasting.

Why do the heating elements appear to be turning on and off?

This is normal. The toaster is designed to control temperature precisely for every function by automatically adjusting the power levels of the heating elements.

Why is it only toasting on one side?

Bagel function likely to be selected. If wanting to use the toast function for toasting both sides evenly, ensure the BAGEL button is NOT illuminated. If it is, the side facing
forwards will be more toasted than the reverse. To deselect Bagel, press the Bagel button once so it is not illuminated.

What coating is used on the grill tray?

The tray has a PTFE non-stick coating. We advise hand-wash and avoid using metal utensils to maintain the non-stick coating.

Can I use baking paper or aluminum foil?

We would advise against this due to the proximity of the tray to the heating elements.
