to avoid burns.
For indoor and household use only.
Read all instructions before using your Ninja® Foodi™ Compact
Tendercrisp™ Pressure Cooker.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
WARNING
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 To eliminate a choking hazard
for young children, remove and
discard the protective cover
fitted on the power plug of
this appliance.
4 Children shall not play with
the appliance.
5 NEVER use socket below counter.
6 NEVER connect this appliance
to an external timer switch or
separate remote-control system.
7 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.
8 To protect against electrical shock
DO NOT immerse cord, plugs,
or main unit housing in water
or other liquid. Cook only in the
pot provided or in a container
recommended by SharkNinja
placed in the provided pot.
9 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.
10 ALWAYS ensure the appliance is
properly assembled before use.
11 Before use, ALWAYS check
pressure release valve and red float
valve for clogging or obstruction,
and clean them if necessary.
Check to make sure the red float
valve on the pressure lid moves
freely. Foods such as apple sauce,
cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal
or other cereals, split peas, noodles,
macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti
can foam, froth, and splutter when
pressure cooked, clogging the
pressure release valve. These and
similar expanding foods (such as
dried vegetables, beans, grains,
and rice) should not be cooked in
a pressure cooker, except when
following a Ninja® Foodi™ recipe.
12 DO NOT cover the air intake vent
or air socket vent while crisping
lid is closed. Doing so will prevent
even cooking and may damage
the unit or cause it to overheat.
13 To prevent risk of explosion and
injury, use only SharkNinja Silicone
rings. Make certain silicone ring is
installed and lid is properly closed
before operating. DO NOT use
if torn or damaged. Replace
before using.
14 Before placing removable cooking
pot into the cooker base, ensure
pot and cooker base are clean and
dry by wiping with a soft cloth.
15 This appliance is for household
use only. DO NOT use this
appliance for anything other than
its intended use. DO NOT use

and dry. DO NOT move the
appliance when in use.
17 DO NOT place appliance on hot

18 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.
