1. Remove and discard any packaging material, stickers and tape from the unit.

3. Wash the grill and flat plate with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. NEVER submerge the main unit in water.

4. We recommend turning the unit on and running it on 260°C for 10 minutes without adding food. Make sure the area is well ventilated. This removes any packaging residue and odour traces that may be present. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the performance of the grill.

Always use the recommended grill settings. Our chef-designed temperature settings maximise grill flavours and textures while minimising smoke. If using oil or fat during the cooking process, we recommend using oils with high smoke points. For best results, Sunflower, Refined Coconut, Avocado, Vegetable, or Rapeseed oils are recommended. Olive Oil, Butter, Margarine, or aerosol cooking sprays are NOT recommended.

1. To install the grill or flat plate, position it over the base with the grease trap toward the front. Place the plate down ensuring the sides align with the exterior of the base.

2. Make sure the unit is plugged in, then turn the dial to the desired temperature. The power indicator light will illuminate.

3. Allow the grill to preheat with the lid closed for 7 minutes before cooking.

4. When preheat is complete, open the lid and place ingredients on the grill plate.

NOTE: Ninja Sizzle Grill and Flat Plate can be used with the lid open or closed.

5. Once ingredients are cooked to satisfaction, remove from the grill and turn the dial until it clicks into the “OFF” position. The power indicator light will turn off.

6. To remove the grill or flat plate for cleaning, ensure the dial is in the “OFF” position, and the unit is unplugged and has had sufficient time to cool. Open the lid and lift the cooking plate straight up by grabbing the vertical walls along the edge of the cooking surface.

The unit should be cleaned thoroughly after each use. Always let the appliance cool before cleaning.

1. Unplug the unit from the socket before cleaning. Keep the lid open after removing your food to allow the unit to cool quicker.

2. To prolong the nonstick coating of the grill and flat plate, we recommend handwashing in warm, soapy water then air or towel-drying all parts. We don’t recommend putting the grill and flat plate in the dishwasher. The splatter lid is dishwasher safe.

3. If food residue or grease is stuck on the grill, flat plate, splatter lid, or any other removable part, soak in warm, soapy water before cleaning.

4. To clean around the heating element of the grill, use a damp, soapy cloth, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
