1 Remove all packaging material, stickers and labels from

the brewer.

2 Wash the water reservoir, permanent ﬁlter, and brew

basket in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth.

3 Rinse and dry thoroughly.

4 Before ﬁrst use, prime the system by running two

travel mug cycles with water only. After each cycle is complete, discard the brew.

PLEASE KEEP THESE IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS IN MIND WHEN USING THE APPLIANCE:

CAUTION: APPLIANCE CREATES HOT LIQUID.

HANDLE WITH CARE.

CAUTION: Neve r open the br ew basket when

the coff eemaker is in u se.

CAUTION: Plea se ensure t hat you are using

at least a 12 oz. cup f or the cup size , 14 oz. cup for the X L Cup size, 16 oz. tra vel mug for the travel mug size and 20 oz . travel mug fo r the XL Mult i-Serve size to prevent overﬂow and a scalding injury.

CAU TION: DO NOT remove the ve ssel while

the applian ce is running w ithout th e Drip Stop in the closed posit ion. Return the vessel quickly and open t he Drip Stop to continue the brew.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT run the a ppliance

without water.

IMPORTANT: Always place a ve ssel beneath

the brew bas ket to recei ve the brewed coffee.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT overﬁ ll the water

reservoir. Fill water only to the Max Fill line.

Before First Use

1 Place the brewer on a dry, clean and level surface.

2 To easily ﬁll the water reser voir, use the hand grips

to lift it straight up off the brewer. (Fi g. 1) The water reservoir lid ﬂips open, and the entire lid is easily removable for quick cleaning. Add fresh, ﬁltered water at or above the minimum ﬁll line for your desired beverage size (Fig . 2), then return the water reservoir to the brewer and lock into place. (Fig. 3) Do not ﬁll water reservoir with any other liquids such as brewed coffee, carb onated beverages, etc. as other liquids may damage your brewer.

3 Slide brew basket out

(Fig. 4)

and lift both the permanent ﬁlter and permanent ﬁlter carrier from the brew basket to remove.

HOW MUCH COFFEE DO YOU GET IN YOUR CUP?

CAUTION: P lease ensur e that you are using at least a 12 oz. cup for the cup s ize, 14 oz. cup for the XL Cup size, 16 oz. trave l mug for the tr avel mug size an d 20 oz. trave l mug for the XL M ulti-Se rve size to prevent overﬂow an d a scalding injury.

Each size and brew t ype produces a different amount of coffee to optimize strength, taste, and size.

NOTE: The coffee grounds will absorb some of the water that is brewed, resulting in slightly less brewed coffee than water used.

Why is there a difference?

A cold ceramic mug will steal heat from the coffee as

it warms itself up.

If the mug is already warm, it will not steal as much heat from

the coffee.

Just like your cold mug, cold milk lowers the temperature of

your coffee.

The Ninja double wall cup is designed to retain initial coffee temp

better than a ceramic cup.

Unlike a ceramic

mug, a thinner

paper cup

does not steal substantial heat from the coffee.

WOULD YOU LIKE A HOTTER COFFEE?

Have you ever wondered why coffee is served in paper cups when you order it to go?The type of cup you brew into can drastically inﬂuence the drinking temperature.

Our Specialty Brew is always 4 oz. and Cafe Forte is always 8 oz., so you don’t need to adjust the dial for our Signature brews.

FILLING THE BREW BASKE T WITH COFFEE

For best result s, use the below measurements of ground coffee for each size brew–the amount of ground coffee for each size will remain the same for any brew type t hat you select. For example, if you select Cup and Classic Brew, you will use the same amount of coffee grounds as if you select Cup and Specialt y Brew.

CAUTION: T he maximum c apacity for ground

coffee i s 6 rounded t ablespoon s or 3 Ninja Big Scoops. E xceeding this amount or u sing ﬁne ground cof fee may cause overﬂow.

1 Open the brew basket by sliding it out of the brewer.

(Fig. 7)

NOTE: Check for any loose grounds that may be lef t in

the brew basket. Remove and rinse the brew basket if needed.

2 Place the permanent ﬁlter or a #2 paper cone ﬁlter in

the brew basket. If using a paper ﬁlter, ﬁrst ensure the permanent ﬁlter is removed from the brew basket. Then fold a #2 paper cone ﬁlter along the seams and insert ﬁrmly into the brew basket. (Fig. 8)

3 Use the Ninja S coop and follow the measurements

in the chart to ﬁll the ﬁlter. These measurements are based on level scoops—adjust to your preferred taste. (Fig. 9) We suggest using a medium grind size if grinding whole beans.

Care & Maintenance - cont. Troubleshooting Guide

PROBLEMS POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS

Sediment in my coffee.

If there is sediment at the bottom of the brewed coffee, this may be due to ﬁnely ground coffee in a permanent ﬁlter.

To reduce the amount of sediment in the brewed coffee use a slightly coarser grind or use a paper ﬁlter.

Grounds in my coffee.

If there are grounds in your coffee, check to make sure the brew basket did not overﬂow. If there are too many grounds in the brew basket, or you are using a ﬁne ground coffee, the

grounds will ﬂow into an overﬂow channel designed to make sure over ﬂow is captured in the brew vessel. For best results use medium ground coffee in the rec ommended measurements.

Brew basket dripping after brew.

Run a Clean Cycle or wash the brew basket thoroughly with warm, soapy water.

Check to see if the Drip Stop is set to the closed, no-drip position.

Paper ﬁlter falling over.

The Ninja Coffee Bar® is designed to take a #2 cone ﬁlter. Be sure you are using this size and shape for best results.

Be sure the paper ﬁlter is ﬁrmly pressed into the brew basket.

Wet the corners of the ﬁlter for best results.

If problem persists, try using the permanent ﬁlter.

Coffee is not hot enough.

To keep your coffee hotter longer, pre-heat your mug by rinsing it with hot water from the tap.

If using a microwave safe mug with cream or milk, try pre-heating the cream or milk in the microwave for 30 seconds.

Over Ice Brew is not cold.

The Over Ice Brew is designed to brew hot c offee over ice to lo ck in the ﬂavor for rich, smooth iced coffee. Make sure your cup or travel mug is ﬁlled all the way to the top with ice cubes.

Weak coffee.

If the coffee tastes weak, try adding more coffee grounds into the brew basket for the next brew cycle.

If the coffee is still weak after adding more coffee grounds, try Rich Brew to make a stronger, more concentrated cup.

Coffee too strong.

Try using a coarser grind.

If the coffee is still too strong, try using less coffee grounds.

Brew will not start.

Check to make sure the brewer is plugged in and water is in the water reservoir.

If the Drip Stop is in the open position, check that the brew basket is pushed all the way into the brewer. If you hear 5 beeps, check that the Drip Stop is in the open position.

NOTE: The brew will begin, stop, and be quiet for a short period of time before it begins again. This process is used to evenly saturate your coffee grounds.

Brew cycle is too slow.

A single-cup brew will take approximately 4 minutes.

If the brew cycle is taking longer than normal, run the Clean Cycle with the descaling solution.
