Does closing the lid shut off the grill plate?

Does closing the lid shut off the grill plate?

I have a Lidl dupe of the Woodfire and am thinking to upgrade to the real deal. However, I'm wondering if the Ninja shares what I think is an odd functionality quirk with the Lidl copy... As you can clearly see from above instructions, on the Lidl grill when you close the lid the grill plate shuts down and cooking is via heat from the top element. I would have thought you'd get a better flavour by frying on the grill plate with the lid down to capture the smoke?

Edit: thanks for replies... Seems like Lidl got the functionality wrong in their version! Looks like I'll have to buy the real thing.
