Cook in two independent cooking zones using Ninja’s signature Dual Zone Technology, or remove the divider to create a 10.4L MegaZone for larger food items.
Ninja’s Dual Zone Technology allows you to cook two different foods simultaneously, with separate cooking functions, times, and temperatures for each zone – both finishing at the same time. This feature is perfect for cooking mains and sides together, or catering to different dietary needs.
The MegaZone feature allows you to easily fit larger items like a whole chicken, a leg of lamb with roast vegetables, or traybake meals.
This air fryer is up to 45% more energy-efficient than a conventional oven and up to 65% faster than fan ovens, making it ideal for busy households.
It offers seven cooking functions: Air Fry, Max Crisp, Roast, Bake, Reheat, Dehydrate, and Prove. Air Fry uses little to no oil, resulting in up to 75% less fat compared to traditional frying methods.
The 10.4L Mega Zone drawer, divider, and two crisper plates are non-stick and dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. The product includes a chef-created recipe guide.

Troubleshooting
Food is not cooking evenly or crisping properly.
Do not overcrowd the basket; ensure food is in a single layer for optimal airflow. For best results, shake the crisper plate or flip food halfway through cooking. Ensure the air fryer is preheated if the recipe calls for it.
The air fryer will not turn on.
Check that the power cord is securely plugged into both the appliance and a working wall outlet. Try plugging another small appliance into the same outlet to verify it is active. Ensure the drawer is fully inserted into the unit.
Smoke is coming from the air fryer during cooking.
This is usually caused by cooking high-fat foods. Ensure the crisper plate is clean and free of food residue. If cooking very fatty foods, you may place a piece of bread or a small amount of water in the drawer under the crisper plate to absorb excess grease.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Unpack: Carefully remove the air fryer, drawer, divider, and crisper plates from the packaging.
Clean Components: Before first use, wash the drawer, divider, and crisper plates with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
Position: Place the air fryer on a clean, dry, and level surface, ensuring adequate space around it for ventilation. Plug into a grounded electrical outlet.
First Use: It is recommended to run the air fryer empty on the Air Fry setting for about 10-15 minutes on a high temperature (e.g., 200°C) to burn off any manufacturing residues. A slight odor may be present initially, which is normal.
Compatibility

Electrical: Ensure your power outlet matches the appliance's voltage requirements.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Cleaning: After each use, allow the unit to cool down. Remove the drawer, divider, and crisper plates. These parts are non-stick and dishwasher safe, making cleanup easy. For handwashing, use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge.
Main Unit: Wipe the exterior of the main unit with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the main unit in water or any other liquid.
Internal Cleaning: Periodically check for and remove any food debris from the heating element area using a soft brush after the unit has fully cooled.
Storage: Store the air fryer in a cool, dry place.
