NOTE: If you unplug the brewer or in the event of a power loss, you will need to reset
the clock the next time the brewer is plugged in.
NOTE: This calibration is permanently saved and will not be lost if power is lost
or brewer is unplugged. Brewer can be recalibrated at any time if the altitude where it is
being used changes.
NOTE: At any time, you can set the clock by turning on the brewer, pressing the
HR/MIN button, and following steps 3–4.
SETTING THE CLOCK
1 When the brewer is first plugged in, HR/MIN will illuminate to indicate that the time
has not been set.
2 Press the HR/MIN button to set the clock.
3 Use the Multi-Serve Dial to select the correct hour. Then, press the START BREW
button to toggle to minutes.
4 Use the dial again to select the correct minute, and press the START BREW button
to set the clock at the displayed time.
HIGH-ALTITUDE CALIBRATION BREW
Required for users in high-altitude areas. Not running the high-altitude calibration brew in
a high-altitude area will result in excessive steaming during brewing.
Because water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitudes, running a calibration
cycle before your first brew allows the brewer to detect the boiling point of water at
your location. Running a calibration cycle will help deliver a consistent brew each time.
1 Fill the water reservoir up to, but not exceeding, the Full line.
2 Insert the brew basket and slide the sliding lid closed, then place an empty carafe
on the base.
3 Press and hold both BREW STYLE and HR/MIN until you hear a confirmation sound.
4 A calibration cycle will begin, and the display will count down until the Altitude
calibration is complete. When complete, the brewer will beep and display “End”
on the dial. Discard the water in the carafe.

1 When the brewer is first plugged in, HR/MIN will illuminate to indicate that the time
has not been set.
2 Press the HR/MIN button to set the clock.

to set the clock at the displayed time.
HIGH-ALTITUDE CALIBRATION BREW
Required for users in high-altitude areas. Not running the high-altitude calibration brew in
a high-altitude area will result in excessive steaming during brewing.
Because water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitudes, running a calibration
cycle before your first brew allows the brewer to detect the boiling point of water at
your location. Running a calibration cycle will help deliver a consistent brew each time.
1 Fill the water reservoir up to, but not exceeding, the Full line.
2 Insert the brew basket and slide the sliding lid closed, then place an empty carafe
on the base.
3 Press and hold both BREW STYLE and HR/MIN until you hear a confirmation sound.
4 A calibration cycle will begin, and the display will count down until the Altitude
calibration is complete. When complete, the brewer will beep and display “End”
on the dial. Discard the water in the carafe.

BREW VOLUMES AND
MEASUREMENTS
Each size and brew style produces a
dierent amount of coee to optimize
strength and flavor.
NOTE: Adjust to your preferred taste.
More scoops result in stronger coee
but slightly lower volumes, fewer
scoops result in weaker coee and
slightly higher volumes. Use fewer
scoops of decaeinated coee to
prevent overflow. Use a medium-sized
grind if grinding whole beans. Grinding
beans too finely may cause the brew
basket to overflow.

IMPORTANT: If you cancel the clean
cycle, your brewer will not be
properly descaled.
4 The clock will display and count down
the remaining clean cycle time, which
takes approximately 75 minutes to
complete. Your brewer will deliver a small
amount of cleaning solution to distribute
it through the system. It will then pause,
deliver additional cleaning solution, and
repeat this process for 75 minutes. The
extended pauses allow for maximum
cleaning and descaling.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT remove the carafe
at any time during the clean cycle.
5 Upon completion, the brewer will beep, the
clock will display End, and the Intelligent
Clean Cycle Indicator will turn o.
6 Empty the contents of the carafe and
place it back under the brew basket. Clean
the water reservoir with warm, soapy water
to remove any cleaning solution that could
aect the flavor of your coee.
7 Fill the reservoir with fresh water up to, but
not exceeding, the Full line.
8 Flush the system by running a
water-only cycle. If cleaning the Grounds
mode, run a Full Carafe Classic brew
cycle. If cleaning the Pods mode, run
a 12 oz. Classic brew. If cleaning the
Hot Water mode, run a Full Carafe on
BOIL. Rerun a water-only cycle if taste
persists. After the cycle is complete,
discard the water and thoroughly clean
the carafe and brew basket.
CLEANING THE NINJA POD ADAPTER
Open the handle to reveal the needles and
pod holder and hand-wash with warm,
soapy water. Take care when cleaning
around the needles. Then, close the handle
and slide it back into the REMOVE position
before reinstalling.
CLEANING THE BREW BASKET
If brewing grounds, allow the brewer to
cool, then remove the brew basket by
pinching the handle and lifting straight
up. If using a paper filter, discard the
filter by dumping the brew basket upside
down into a waste-bin. If brewing pods,
first remove the Ninja Pod Adapter, then
remove and wash the brew basket.
CLEANING & DESCALING YOUR
BREWING SYSTEM
Your Ninja DualBrew coee maker oers
multiple modes to choose from, which
include Grounds, Pods, and Hot Water
(not available on all models). Each mode
that you use will eventually need to be
cleaned with a clean cycle.
The clean cycle is used for descaling
the brewer when calcium scale buildup
is aecting the performance of the
brewer and/or the flavor of your coee.
The Intelligent Clean Cycle Indicator will
automatically illuminate orange when a
cleaning cycle is recommended for your
brewer. If the indicator is ignored, your
brewer may stop mid-brew and display
“CLn,” indicating it needs immediate
cleaning on the current mode.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AFTER A BREW
1 After the brewer has cooled, remove
the brew basket. If using pods, remove
the Ninja Pod Adapter and brew basket.
Wash the used parts thoroughly with
soap and warm water.
2 Clean the frother whisk after each use.
Hand-wash thoroughly or place on top
rack of dishwasher.
3 Wash the carafe and brew-through lid with
soap and warm water. Use a bottle brush
or cloth to wash the inside of the carafe.
DO NOT use a wire brush.
CLEANING THE WATER RESERVOIR
Empty the reservoir and hand-wash or
place in dishwasher. For a better clean, we
recommend placing it in the bottom rack of
the dishwasher standing upright with the
opening facing downward. We recommend
doing this weekly.
CLEANING THE CARAFE
We recommend cleaning your carafe after
each use with warm, soapy water.
To clean the carafe more thoroughly, we
recommend using a soft foam brush.
DO NOT use a wire brush.
CLEANING THE SLIDING LID
Open the hinged hood on top of the
brewer by pulling up on the left side. Once
opened, slide the sliding lid out of the back
of the brewer to remove it. Hand-wash the
sliding lid with warm, soapy water. Slide
the sliding lid back into its tracks and close
the hinged hood.
NOTE: For best results, we recommend
rinsing the reservoir after brewing and
refilling with fresh water for the next
brew.
NOTE: The clean cycle takes
approximately 75 minutes.
NOTE: DO NOT place the Ninja Pod
Adapter in the dishwasher.
1-877-646-5288
CHOOSING WHICH MODE TO CLEAN
When the Intelligent Clean Cycle Indicator
turns on for the first time, run a clean cycle
on the mode you use most. For example,
if you primarily brew with grounds, run the
clean cycle on the Grounds mode with the
Sliding Lid closed. If you primarily use pods,
ensure the Ninja® Pod Adapter is installed,
and run the clean cycle through the Ninja Pod
Adapter. If Hot Water mode is used at all, run
an additional clean cycle in Hot Water mode.
The next time the Intelligent Clean Cycle
Indicator illuminates orange, run a clean
cycle on the remaining way to brew coee.
For example, if you ran a clean cycle on the
Grounds mode first, run a clean cycle on the
Pods mode next.
To clean and descale your Ninja DualBrew
Pro Coee System:
1 Place the empty carafe beneath the
brew basket.
2 Use a descaling solution specifically
formulated for coeemaker cleaning and
follow the directions on the package.
Fill the water reservoir up to, but not
exceeding, the Full line.
OR
Fill the water reservoir to the Travel Mug
line (16 oz.) with white vinegar, then fill the
rest of the reservoir with water up to, but
not exceeding, the Full line.
IMPORTANT: Only use white vinegar.
3 Once the water reservoir is filled with your
cleaning solution and water mixture, press
the CLEAN button then press the START
BREW button to confirm and begin the
cleaning cycle.
NOTE: DO NOT place the sliding lid in
the dishwasher.
NOTE: The glass carafe, brew-through
lid, permanent filter, brew basket, water
reservoir, water reservoir lid, frother
whisk, and Ninja Smart Scoop™ are all
dishwasher safe.
NOTE: To cancel the clean cycle, press
the Power button or CLEAN button
once. The brewer will beep and stop
brewing through the cleaning mixture.
Continue to follow the instructions
starting at Step 6.
NOTE: Hard water will cause scale
buildup faster than soft water and the
brewer will indicate it needs cleaning
more often.
NOTE: Running a water-only clean cycle
will not descale the brewer properly.
NOTE: If the display ever reads “CLn,”
it indicates heavy scale buildup on
that mode. Run a clean cycle on the
current mode.

There’s sediment in my coee.
• If using a permanent filter, this may be due to using finely ground coee.
• To reduce the amount of sediment in the brewed coee, use a slightly coarser grind or
use a paper filter.
NOTE: DO NOT use a paper filter in conjunction with a permanent filter, as water and/or
coee can back up and clog the filter basket.
Over Ice Brew is not cold.
• Ensure your cup, travel mug, or carafe is filled all the way to the top with ice cubes
before brewing. Brewer will brew at elevated temperatures to lock in the best flavor, then
the ice will cool the brewed coee to the perfect temperature.
Coee is too weak.
• For stronger coee, use the Rich brew setting. For an even bolder flavor, you can add
more coee grounds to the filter.
Coee is too strong.
• For milder coee, use the Classic brew setting. For an even milder flavor, use fewer
coee grounds in the filter.
Brew cycle is too slow.
• The brew time will vary based on size and brew style. Full carafe sizes and Rich brews
will take longer to brew than single-serve and classic brews. The progress bar on the
control panel will indicate brew status.
Cup or travel mug overflowed.
• Refer to the Approximate Brew Volumes chart on page 10.
Brew basket overflowed.
• The bottom of the brew basket may be clogged. This can happen with finely ground
coee or too many coee grounds in the filter. Medium-grind coee is recommended.
• Using both the permanent filter and a paper filter can cause grounds to clog and water
to back up in the brew basket. Use only the permanent filter or a paper filter.
• Decaf coee grounds absorb water dierently, so use fewer scoops when using decaf.
There is water left in the reservoir.
• When the reservoir is filled to a specific size and then that size is brewed, there will be
some water left in the reservoir. This is normal to ensure the reservoir does not run dry
for the best performance of the pump and brew system.
Brewer is leaking.
• After removing the water reservoir, there may be a small amount of water in the reservoir
valve. This can be easily removed with a dry cloth.
• If the leak is coming from above the brew basket, refer to “Brew basket overflowed.” above.
• If the leaking is coming from below the brew basket, close the drip stop. Refer to page 17
for more information.
• If the leak is coming from the bottom of the brewer, call Customer Service at
1-877-646-5288.
