TROUBLESHOOTING
• “Add Food” appears on the control panel display.
The unit has completed preheating and it is now time to add your ingredients.
• “Shut Lid” appears on the control panel display.
The hood is open and needs to be closed for the selected function to start.
• “Plug In” appears on the control panel display.
The thermometer is not plugged into the jack on the right side of the control panel. Plug
the thermometer in before proceeding. Press the thermometer in until you hear a click.
• “PRBE ERR” appears on the control panel display.
This means the unit timed out before food reached the set internal temperature.
As a protection for the unit, it can run for only certain lengths of time at specific
temperatures.
• “E” appears on the control panel display.
The unit is not functioning properly. Contact Customer Service at 1-877-646-5288. So we
may better assist you, please register your product online at registeryourninja.com and
have the product on hand when you call.
• Why is my food overcooked or undercooked even though I used the thermometer?
It is important to insert the thermometer lengthwise into the thickest part of the
ingredient to get the most accurate reading. Make sure to allow food to rest for
3–5 minutes to complete cooking. For more information, refer to the Using the Foodi™
Smart Thermometer section.
• Why does the preheat progress bar not start from the beginning?
When the unit is warm from previously being used, it will not require the full preheating time.
• Can I cancel or override preheating?
Preheating is highly recommended for best results, but you can skip it by selecting the
PREHEAT button after you press the START/STOP button.
• Should I add my ingredients before or after preheating?
For best results, let the unit preheat before adding ingredients.
• Why is my unit emitting smoke?
When using the Grill function, always select the recommended temperature setting.
Recommended settings can be found in the Quick Start Guide and in the Inspiration
Guide. Make sure the splatter shield is installed.
• How do I pause the unit so I can check my food?
When the hood is opened during a cooking function, the unit will automatically pause.
• Will the thermometer grip melt if it touches the hot grill grate?
No, the grip is made of a high-temperature silicone that can handle the Ninja® Foodi™
Smart XL Grill’s high temperatures.
• My food is burned.
Do not add food until recommended preheat time is complete. For best results, check
progress throughout cooking, and remove food when desired level of brownness has been
achieved. Remove food immediately after the cook time is complete to avoid overcooking.
• Why did a circuit breaker trip while using the unit?
The unit uses 1760 watts of power, so it must be plugged into an outlet on a 15-amp
circuit breaker. Using an outlet on a 10-amp breaker will cause the breaker to trip. It is
also important that the unit be the only appliance plugged into an outlet when in use.
To avoid tripping a breaker, make sure the unit is the only appliance plugged into an
outlet on a 15-amp breaker.
• Why does the unit have a 1–9 scale for the Beef Preset?
Perception of what a specific internal doneness looks like diers from person to person,
even restaurant to restaurant. The 1–9 scale provides a wide range of options for each
doneness level so you can customize doneness to your liking.
