BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove all packaging material, and tape from the unit.
2. Remove all 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 grill plate and crisper basket in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly. The grill plate, crisper basket and base unit are NOT dishwasher safe. NEVER clean the main unit in the dishwasher.
4. DO NOT use abrasive brushes or sponges on the cooking surfaces, as it will cause damage to the coating.

We recommend placing all accessories inside the grill and running it on GRILL, temp set to HI for 20 minutes without adding food. This removes any residues. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the performance of the grill.
Continue following instructions on page 52 before attempting to do this.

Where to locate the grill
Place grill on a stable and level surface. It is important this can support the weight and size of the unit. The underside stays cool and so you can place the unit on any surface. Position the unit at least 90cm (3 feet) from walls or anything over head due to heat and smoke output.

Use in any weather
This grill is safe to use in any weather. The main unit is IPX4 rated and the plug is IP66. The RCD plug provides additional protection and it is designed to trip should there be any issue with the circuit. When not in use we advise you cover the unit to keep it looking it’s best. Whilst the unit is safe it will show signs of weathering if exposed to the elements.

EXTENSION CORD
If using an extension cord, ensure it is suitable for use outdoors with outdoor appliances. Using the incorrect cord could lead to the cord overheating, melting and/or a drop in voltage. A drop in voltage can increase preheat times and impact cooking performance and/or cook times.

POWERING THE GRILL

1. Plug the RCD into electrical socket. Switch socket on.

2. Press RESET button on the RCD. The circle above the RESET button should be illuminated orange. If this isn’t the case, try a different socket. Note: It may be difficult to see the orange if in direct sunlight.

3. Press the TEST button on the RCD. The circle should now show black. This means the RCD is functioning correctly. If pressing the TEST button does not change the circle to black then contact customer services.

4. After establishing if the RCD is functioning correctly once again press RESET. The orange illumination should re-appear. The unit can now be switched on.
   NOTE: RCD Light; ORANGE RCD is ON ; BLACK = RCD is OFF

NOTE: The RESET button on the RCD will need to be pressed every time the unit is unplugged or the socket switched off.

REMOVABLE SMOKER BOX
Comes fully installed in the unit. Located on the right side of the lid. Always ensure the removeable smoker box is inserted into place before adding pellets. Review all warnings before proceeding.

Installing the smoker box:
To install, pull the smoker box open with one hand and insert the removable smoker box so it sits into place.

Adding Ninja Woodfire Pellets:
Fill the pellet scoop to the top and level off to avoid spilling. While holding the smoker box open, use the pellet scoop to pour pellets into the smoker box until filled to the top.
Use only Ninja Woodfire Pellets for best results, performance, and flavour.

Removing the smoker box and cleaning:
To avoid burns, allow pellets to burn completely and the smoker box to cool completely, then remove smoker box and safely discard all contents.

CLEANING YOUR GRILL
The grill should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. ALWAYS let the appliance and accessories cool before cleaning.

• Unplug the grill from power source before cleaning. Keep the lid open after removing your food to allow the unit to cool quicker.

2. Add a quick burst of Woodfire Flavour to any of the other functions, except REHEAT, using the WOODFIRE FLAVOUR TECHNOLOGY button.

• SMOKER: Create deep, smoky flavours while cooking low and slow to tenderize large cuts of meat.
• GRILL: Closed-lid cooking for top and bottom heat. Best when grilling large or thick cuts of meat or frozen food or for an all-around sear. Open the lid while grilling delicate foods or lean proteins to develop char-grilled textures without overcooking.
• AIR FRY: Achieve crispiness and crunch with little to no oil and higher fan speeds.
• ROAST: Tenderize meats, roast vegetables, and more.
• BAKE: Bake cakes, treats, desserts, and more with lower fan speeds.
• DEHYDRATE: Dehydrate meats, fruits, and vegetables for healthy snacks.
• REHEAT: Ideal for reheating leftovers so nothing goes to waste.

OPERATING BUTTONS

• DIAL: Use the dial to adjust your temperature, cook time, or probe settings.
• NOTE: When the unit is powered on, the display will be illuminated.
• WOODFIRE FLAVOUR: Press after selecting your cooking function to add authentic smoky flavours.. Intended for use with the Grill, Air Fry, Bake, Roast, and Dehydrate functions. When pressed, flame icon will illuminate on the display screen.

• After you set function, time, and temperature then press START, the unit will automatically begin preheating (except if using the SMOKER, REHEAT or DEHYDRATE function without enabling Ninja Woodfire Flavour).

USING THE BUILT-IN PROBE

IMPORTANT: DO NOT place hands near built-in probe cord when in use to prevent burning or scalding.

Before First Use
Make sure the probe jack is free of any residue and the cord is free of knots before plugging it into the socket.

1. Slide out the probe storage compartment from under the control panel, then unwind the cord from the compartment to remove the probe.

2. The Probe socket is located to the left of the dial. Lift protective cover to access.

3. Plug the probe into the top socket labeled“1″ on the left side of the control panel. Push firmly on the plug until it cannot go into the socket any further. Slide the storage compartment back.

4. After the probe is plugged into the socket, select the desired cook function and cook temperature.
   NOTE: There is no need to set a cook time, as the grill will automatically turn off the heating element and alert you when your food has finished cooking.
   Press the Probe button, then use the dial to select your desired protein type or Manual.
   Press dial to confirm selection.

5. Use the dial to select your desired outcome or manual internal temperature, then press dial to confirm selection.
   NOTE: Cooking different proteins or the same ones to different outcomes?
   Use the second probe. Plug into the socket labeled “2”. Press the Probe button again. The probe 2 icon will flash. Repeat steps 3–5 to program the second probe.
   If selecting MANUAL, use the below recommended internal cook temperatures NOTE: Preset outcome temperatures for BEEF/LAMB are lower than normal recommendations, as unit will carry over the cook.

6. Place the accessory required for your selected cook function in the grill and close the lid. Press START/STOP to begin preheating.

7. While the grill is preheating, insert the probe horizontally into the centre of the thickest part of the piece of protein. Refer to the chart on the next page for further probe placement instructions.

8. When the grill has preheated and “ADD FOOD” appears on the screen, open the lid, place food with inserted probe in the unit, and close the lid over the probe cord.
   

9. The progress bar at the top of the display will track outcome. Flashing outcome indicates progression to that stage.
   NOTE: When using GRILL and ROAST, the unit will beep and display FLIP. Flipping is optional, but recommended.

10. The grill will automatically stop when desired outcome is almost reached, as it accounts for carry-over cooking, and “GET FOOD” will display on the screen.

11. Transfer the protein to a plate while “REST” displays on the screen. Probe does not need to still be inserted. The protein will continue to carry over cook to your set outcome, which will take about 3–5 minutes. This is an important step, as not resting could lead to results looking less cooked. Carry-over cook times can vary based on size of protein, cut of protein, and type of protein.

NOTE: The probe will be HOT. Use either oven gloves or tongs to take the probe out of the protein.
NOTE: To check the internal temperature of other pieces of protein, press and hold the Probe button and insert the probe into each piece of meat.

HOW TO CORRECTLY INSERT THE PROBE

NOTE: DO NOT use the probe with frozen protein or for cuts of meat thinner than 2.5 cm.

  So we may better assist you, please register your product online at ninjakitchen.eu and have the product on hand when you call.

• “CLD” appears on the control panel display.
  Cold Smoking is to be used to provide smoke Flavour to foods, this is not intended for cooking. When used on meat, poultry, or fish, this process should always be used in conjunction with a separate step to bring food up to food- safe internal temperatures. Refer to the local food standards authority for recommended food safe temperatures.

• Should I add my ingredients before or after preheating?
  For best results, let the unit preheat before adding ingredients.

• Do I need to completely fill the smoker box with pellets?
  Yes, always fill the smoker box to the top. We’ve perfected the amount of pellets needed for each smoke session, regardless of the function or food load, the unit will burn through them appropriately.

• “Plug In” appears on the control panel display.
  The probe is not plugged into the socket on the right side of the control panel. Plug the probe in before proceeding. Press the probe in until you hear a click.

• Why does the unit have a 1–9 scale for the Beef Preset?
  Perception of what a specific internal outcome looks like differs from person to person, even restaurant to restaurant. The 1–9 scale provides a wide range of options for each outcome level so you can customise outcome to your liking.

• “PRBE ERR” appears on the control panel display.
  This means the grill timed out before food reached the set internal temperature. As a protection for the unit, it can run for only certain lengths of time at specific temperatures.

• Why is my food overcooked or undercooked even though I used the probe?
  It is important to insert the probe lengthwise into the thickest part of the ingredient to get the most accurate reading. Make sure to allow food to rest for 3–5 minutes to complete cooking. For more information, refer to the Using the Digital Cooking Probe section.

• Will the probe grip melt if it touches the hot grill plate?
  No, the grip is made of a high-temperature silicone that can handle the Ninja® Woodfire Electric Outdoor Grill’s high temperatures.

• When do I press the Woodfire Flavour technology button?
  Press the Woodfire Flavour technology button before pressing start when wanting to add smoke using the Grill, Air Fry, Roast, Bake or Dehydrate. You do not need to press the Woodfire Flavour technology button when using the Smoker function. Woodfire Technology cannot be used with REHEAT.

• Why are flames coming out from the pellet box?
  Small flames can come out from the pellet box if the grill lid is lifted in windy conditions.

• Where should I keep my pellets stored?
  Always store pellets in a dry area. Any moisture in the pellets can compromise ignition and quality of smoke flavour.

• Should I use any oils or non-stick sprays when smoking?
  No, we DO NOT recommend using any oils or non-stick sprays when smoking because smoke will not adhere to the food as well.

• How do I dispose of burnt pellets after a cook cycle?
  Pellets may continue to burn after cook time is complete. DO NOT touch or remove the smoker box until the grill has stopped smoking, pellets have completely burnt out and the smoker box has cooled. Then, remove the smoker box and safely discard cooled ash contents.

• W hy is preheat taking so long?
  Preheat times vary by function and unit temperature.
  SMOKER, DEHYDRATE, REHEAT: No preheat.
  If adding Woodfire Flavour, ignition time will add an additional 3-6minutes.
  Using the unit in inclement weather with heavy rain could cause longer preheat times.
  If using an extension cord, ensure it is suitable for use outdoors with outdoor appliances. Using the incorrect cord could lead to the cord overheating, melting and/or a drop in voltage.
  While preheating is strongly recommended for best results, you can skip it by pressing and holding the START/STOP button for 3 seconds. “ADD FOOD” will flash across the screen. Open the lid and place ingredients in unit. Once the lid is closed, cooking will begin and the timer will start counting down.

• Can I turn off Woodfire Flavour Technology?
  If you pressed Woodfire Flavour Technology and already started your cooking function by pressing START, you can press the Woodfire Flavour Technology button again to turn it off if the ignition cycle is less than 75% complete (indicated by the progress bar on the display screen). If pellets have fully ignited and the grill has transitioned to the preheat cycle (indicated on the display screen), you cannot turn Woodfire Flavour Technology off.

• Can I add more pellets during a cook cycle?
  When using the SMOKER function, you can add more pellets once the first batch has fully burned. Press and hold the Woodfire Flavour technology button for 4 seconds to ignite new full box of pellets. If running back-to-back smoking sessions, we recommend refilling the smoker box using the pellet scoop when half the pellets have burned. DO NOT refill more than 2 times. DO NOT re- ignite pellets.
