IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
Read all instructions before using your Ninja Foodi MAX Dual Zone Air Fryer.
When using electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
WARNINGS
1 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 use of
the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
2 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.
3 Children should not play with
the appliance.
4 DO NOT place or store anything on
top of product when in use.
5 DO NOT place appliance on hot
surfaces or near a hot gas or
electric burner, on or in a heated
oven or stovetop.
6 NEVER use electrical sockets
below counter.
7 NEVER connect this appliance to
an external timer switch or separate
remote-control system.
8 DO NOT use an extension cord.
A short power-supply cord is used to
reduce the risk of children less than
8 years grabbing the cord or
becoming entangled and to reduce
the risk of people tripping over a
longer cord.
9 To protect against electrical shock
DO NOT immerse cord, plugs, or main
unit housing in water or other liquid.
Cook only in the drawers provided.
10 Regularly inspect the appliance
and power cord. DO NOT use the
appliance if there is damage to the
power cord or plug. If the appliance
malfunctions or has been damaged
in any way, immediately stop use
and call Customer Service.
11 ALWAYS ensure the appliance is
properly assembled before use.
12 DO NOT cover the air intake vent
or air outlet while unit is operating.
Doing so will prevent even cooking
and may damage the unit or cause
it to overheat.
13 Before placing removable drawer
into the main unit, ensure drawer and
unit are clean and dry by wiping with
a soft cloth.
14 This appliance is for household
use only. DO NOT use this appliance
for anything other than its intended
use. DO NOT use in moving vehicles
or boats. DO NOT use outdoors.
Misuse may cause injury.
15 Intended for worktop use only. Ensure
the surface is level, clean and dry. DO
NOT move the appliance when in use.
16 DO NOT place the appliance near the
edge of a worktop during operation.
17 DO NOT use accessory attachments not
recommended or sold by SharkNinja.
Do not place accessories in a
microwave, toaster oven, convection
oven, or conventional oven or on a
ceramic cooktop, electric coil, gas
burner range or outdoor grill. The
use of accessory attachments not
recommended by SharkNinja may
cause fire, electric shock or injuries.
18 ALWAYS ensure drawer is properly
closed before operating.
19 When using this appliance, provide at
least 6 inches (15 cm) of space above
and on all sides for adequate air
circulation.
20 DO NOT use the appliance without
the removable drawers installed.
21 DO NOT use this appliance for
deep-frying.
22 Prevent food contact with heating
elements. DO NOT overfill when
cooking. Overfilling may cause
personal injury or property damage
or affect the safe use of the appliance.
23 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.
24 Should the unit emit black smoke,
unplug immediately. Wait for
smoking to stop before removing
any cooking accessories.
25 DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
Appliance surfaces are hot during
and after operation. To prevent
burns or personal injury, ALWAYS
use protective hot pads or insulated
oven mitts and use available handles.
26 DO NOT place hands near the Digital
Cooking Probe cord when in use to
prevent burning or scalding.
27 Extreme caution must be used
when the appliance contains hot
food. Improper use may result in
personal injury.
28 Spilled food can cause serious burns.
Keep appliance and cord away from
children. DO NOT let cord hang over
edges of tables or counters or touch
hot surfaces.
29 The drawer and crisper plate become
extremely hot during the cooking
process. Avoid physical contact while
removing the drawer or plate from the
appliance. ALWAYS place drawer or
plate on a heat-resistant surface after
removing. DO NOT touch accessories
during or immediately after cooking.
30 Cleaning and user maintenance
should not be carried out by children.
31 To disconnect, turn off any control
to OFF, then unplug from socket
when not in use and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before cleaning,
disassembly, putting in or taking
off parts and storage.
32 DO NOT clean with metal scouring
pads. Pieces can break off the pad
and touch electrical parts, creating
the risk of electric shock.

looking “less” cooked. Carry-over cook
times can vary based on size of protein,
cut of protein and type of protein.

oven gloves or tongs to take the probe
out of the protein.
