Power Connection: Plug the grill into a grounded outdoor power outlet. Ensure the outlet is rated for the grill's power requirements. An extension cord, if used, must be rated for outdoor use and capable of handling the grill's wattage.
App Connection: Download the Ninja Pro Connect app to your smartphone. Follow the app's instructions to pair your device with the grill via Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi, enabling remote control and monitoring.
Initial Burn-In: Before first use, it's recommended to perform an initial burn-in to remove any manufacturing residues. Consult the manual for specific instructions regarding this process.
Outdoor Use Only: This appliance is designed exclusively for outdoor use. Never operate it indoors.
Location: Ideal for use in gardens, patios, campsites, and balconies where a stable surface and electrical outlet are available.

Cleaning: Allow the grill to cool completely before cleaning. The grill grates and smoker box should be cleaned after each use. Use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners.
Exterior Cleaning: The exterior can be wiped down with a damp cloth. As it's water-resistant (IPX4), it can withstand splashes, but avoid submerging it or hosing it down directly with high-pressure water.
Pellet Box: Empty any ash or unburnt pellets from the smoker box after each use to ensure optimal smoke generation.
Storage: While designed for year-round outdoor exposure, for prolonged periods of disuse or during extreme weather, consider covering the unit with a protective cover (sold separately) or storing it in a sheltered area.
