Removing & Reinstalling
the Silicone Ring
Silicone Ring
Silicone
Ring Rack
To remove the silicone ring, gently pull
it outward, section by section, from the
silicone ring rack . The ring can be installed
with either side facing up . To reinstall, press
it down into the rack section by section,
(see image above) .
After use, remove any food debris from
the silicone ring and anti-clog cap .
Keep the silicone ring clean to avoid odour
Washing it in warm, soapy water or in the
dishwasher can remove odour . However,
it is normal for it to absorb the smell of
certain acidic foods . It is recommended
to have more than one silicone ring
on hand . You can purchase additional
silicone rings at ninjakitchen .eu .
NEVER pull out the silicone ring with
excessive force, as that may deform it and
the rack and affect the pressure-sealing
function . A silicone ring with cracks,
cuts or other damage should be
replaced immediately .
NOTE: The silicone ring must be replaced
by one that is specific to a Foodi
®
SmartLid Multi-cooker .
CLEANING THE LID
We recommend inspecting the interior
of the lid and heating elements prior to
cooking with "wet cooking functions,"
which include Slow Cook, Steam, Sear/
Sauté, Pressure and all COMBI-STEAM
modes . If you see any food residue or oil
buildup, we recommend steam cleaning the
unit (see instructions below), then wiping
down the interior of the lid .
STEAM CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
1
Fill pot with 750ml of water .
2 Move SmartLid Slider to Air Fry/Cooker .
3 Select STEAM, and set time to
30 minutes . Press START/STOP .
4 When time reaches zero and the unit
has cooled down, use a wet cloth or
sponge to wipe down the interior
of the lid and heating elements .
CAUTION: When cleaning the interior
of the lid, do not touch the fan .
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 as needed and
spot clean as necessary .
NOTE: If the unit is not open after
the cycle is over, the unit will default to
KEEP WARM and the heating element
will continue running .
