How do I clean the grill
The unit should be cleaned thoroughly after every use. Always let the appliance cool before cleaning.
- Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before cleaning. Keep the hood open after removing your food so the unit will cool down more quickly.
- To clean the main unit, and control panel, wipe them with a damp cloth.
- The cooking pot, grill plate, crisper basket, splatter shield, cleaning brush, and any other included Ninja Foodi Grill accessories are dishwasher safe.
- If hand-washing, use the cleaning brush to help wash the parts. Use the opposite end of the cleaning brush as a scraper to assist with releasing baked-on sauces or cheese. Air-dry or towel-dry all parts after hand-washing.
- If food residue or grease are stuck on the grill plate, splatter shield, or any other removable part, place them in a sink or stack them in the pot and fill with warm, soapy water and allow to soak for a couple hours or overnight. After soaking, use the cleaning brush to clean each part.
- Over time, the splatter shield front tabs and frame may accumulate grease buildup. Soaking the splatter shield overnight will help soften the baked-on grease. After soaking, use the cleaning brush to remove the grease from the stainless steel frame and front tabs.
