To clean a Ninja Foodi 5-in-1 grill, let it cool, unplug it, wash removable parts only as directed for your model, and wipe the appliance body with a damp cloth. “5-in-1” does not identify one exact appliance: check the model number on your unit and follow its matching owner’s guide, especially before using a dishwasher or cleaning parts such as the splatter guard or probe.
How do I clean my Ninja Foodi 5-in-1 grill?
- Let the appliance cool and unplug it. The AG301 owner’s guide specifies both steps before cleaning. Read the AG301 owner’s guide for that model’s instructions.
- Remove the cooking accessories. Identify each part before washing it; dishwasher and hand-washing directions can vary by model and component.
- Clean removable parts using the method approved for your model. For stuck-on residue, the AG301 guide recommends soaking removable parts in warm, soapy water and describes using the included cleaning brush with scraper on accessories.
- Wipe the main unit and control panel with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the appliance body in water, and avoid abrasive tools or cleaners on it.
- Dry the parts and reassemble only when they are clean and dry. For components not covered by the model-specific instructions you have, consult the owner’s guide rather than assuming they can be washed the same way as the grill plate.
Can I put the Ninja grill plate and cooking pot in the dishwasher?
It depends on the model and the specific part. Ninja’s UK product information for the EG351UK says its grill plate, cooking pot, and crisper plate are dishwasher safe; the same product page advises hand-washing the plates and splatter guard. The AG301 guide also lists its removable accessories as dishwasher safe. These directions apply to those named models, not automatically to every Ninja appliance described as “5-in-1.”

Check the owner’s guide for your exact model before putting any removable part in a dishwasher. The model number is typically printed on the unit; match it to the guide rather than relying on the product family name. Ninja’s EG351UK product details illustrate why part-specific guidance matters.
How should I remove stubborn residue?
For the AG301, Ninja’s reproduced owner-manual instructions support soaking removable parts in warm, soapy water and cleaning accessories with the included brush and scraper. They do not establish that this method applies to every part on every 5-in-1 model, so check your guide before soaking components such as a probe or splatter guard.

Ninja’s EG351UK product page recommends hand-washing its plates and splatter guard. One TechRadar reviewer reported that the splatter guard was difficult to clean despite following the instructions; that is an individual experience, not a general finding about all models. Avoid abrasive tools and cleaners on the appliance body.
