IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY • READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

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. To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, discard all packaging materials immediately upon unpacking.
3. Take inventory of all contents to ensure you have all parts needed to properly and safely operate your oven.
4. 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.
5. NEVER use socket below worktop.
6. 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.
7. DO NOT let cord hang over edges of tables or counters or touch hot surfaces, including stoves and other heating ovens.
8. NEVER leave the oven unattended while in use.
9. DO NOT cover crumb tray or any part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause the oven to overheat or cause a fire.
10. NEVER place aluminum foil on top of the oven tray or wire rack. This traps grease and can cause a fire.
11. To protect against electrical shock DO NOT immerse cord, plugs or main unit housing in water or other liquid.
12. DO NOT use the oven with damage to the power cord or plug. Regularly inspect the oven and power cord. If the oven malfunctions or has been damaged in any way, immediately stop use and call Customer Service.
13. DO NOT cover the air intake vents or air socket vents while unit is operating. Doing so will prevent even cooking and may damage the unit or cause it to overheat.
14. DO NOT insert anything in the ventilation slots and do not obstruct them.
15. DO NOT place items on top of surface while unit is operating except for authorised recommended Ninja accessories.
16. Before placing any accessories into the oven ensure they are clean and dry.
17. Intended for worktop use only. DO NOT place the oven near the edge of a worktop. Ensure the surface is level, clean and dry.
18. This oven is for household use only. DO NOT use this oven for anything other than its intended use. Misuse may cause injury.
19. DO NOT store any materials, other than supplied accessories, in this oven when not in use.
20. DO NOT use outdoors. DO NOT use in moving vehicles or boats.
21. DO NOT use accessory and attachments not recommended or sold by SharkNinja.
22. When using this oven, provide adequate space above and on all sides for air circulation.
23. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, or the like when in operation. DO NOT place anything on the oven during operation.
24. This oven has a tempered glass door and is more resistant to breakage. Avoid scratching door surface or nicking edges.
25. DO NOT use the oven without the wire rack installed, except when using Air Fry Basket.
26. DO NOT spray any type of aerosol spray or flavoring inside the oven while cooking.
27. Use caution when inserting and removing anything from the oven, especially when hot.
28. 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.
29. Prevent food contact with heating elements. Excessive food loads may cause personal injury or property damage or affect the safe use of the oven.
30. DO NOT place any of the following materials in the oven: paper, cardboard, plastic, roasting bags and the like.
31. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of any materials other than metal or glass.
32. DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Oven 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 and knobs.
33. Spilled food can cause serious burns. Extreme caution must be used when the oven contains hot food. Improper use may result in personal injury.
34. Please refer to the Cleaning & Maintenance section for regular maintenance of the oven.
35. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children.
36. Press the power button to turn oven off and allow to cool completely before cleaning, moving and flipping for storage.
37. Unplug from socket when not in use. To unplug, grasp the plug by the body and pull from the socket. Never unplug by grasping and pulling the flexible cord.
38. DO NOT clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, causing a risk of electrical shock.

40. NEVER connect this appliance to an external timer switch or separate remote control system.

ACCESSORY PLACEMENT

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove and discard any packaging material, promotional labels 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 air fry basket, oven tray, wire rack and removable crumb tray in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly. NEVER clean the main unit in the dishwasher.
4. We recommend placing all accessories inside the oven and running it on Air Fry at 200°C for 20 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 oven.

NOTE: For longevity, we recommend hand-washing the accessories.

FAQ

Why won't the oven turn on?

• Oven needs to be in flipped-down position in order to power it on.
• Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the socket.
• Insert the power cord into a different socket.
• Reset the circuit breaker if necessary.
• Press the power button.

Can I use the oven tray instead of the air fry basket with air fry function?

• Yes, but crispiness results may vary.

Do I need to adjust the cook times and temperatures of traditional oven recipes?

• When preparing traditional oven recipes using the Roast function, lower cook time by 30% and temperature by 10°C.

Can I restore the unit to its default settings?

• The oven will remember the last setting used for each function, even if you unplug it. To restore the oven's default settings for each function, press the TIME/SLICE and TEMP/DARKNESS buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds.

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

• This is normal. The oven is designed to control temperature precisely for every function by adjusting the heating elements' power levels.

Why is steam coming out from the oven door?

• This is normal. The door is vented to release steam created by foods with a high moisture content.

Why is water dripping onto the counter from under the door?

• This is normal. The condensation created by foods with a high moisture content (such as frozen breads) may run down the inside of the door and drip onto the counter.

Why is there noise coming from the control panel?

• When the oven is hot, a fan turns on to cool down the control panel.

Can foil or baking paper be used?

• Aluminium foil should not be used. However, baking paper or greaseproof paper is recommended for when baking or for generally keeping the tray clean.

Are the accessories dishwasher safe?

• For longevity we recommend hand washing accessories. For stuck-on residue, leave to soak before cleaning.
