Helpful Hints

1. To add more time during current cooking cycle, turn START/ PAUSE clockwise. Monitor your food to ensure it doesn't overcook.
2. Some moisture may appear on the Bravo's door during certain cooking cycles.
3. When air-frying, food can be lightly coated with oil beforehand to boost crispiness and browning.

Using Sear 1 2 with Probe

Example: Sear 1 » Stage 1,2,3 » Sear 2 » Warm » Probe temperature 200F (93C). If Probe temperature achieved 200F (93C) at stage 2, the Bravo will stop cooking for remaining stages but still cook your food for Sear 2 and Warm functions.
To avoid "unsafe" status (Probe is shunted outside of the cavity but oven started working with the Probe set and activated), the Bravo will shut off when:

1. If the target temp is over 250F (121C) and the Probe does not increase in 5F (1C) after 60 min, shut the unit off immediately.
   Or
2. If the target temp is under 250F (121C) and the Probe does not increase in 5F (1C) after 120 min, shut the unit off immediately. "Prb4" will be displayed.

• 8 06:30
• 9 07:00
• 10 07:30

To adjust the toasting temperature for each level, press TEMP/TIME to display the toasting temperature. To adjust the toasting temperature, use the START/PAUSE dial.
To adjust the toasting time, press the TEMP/TIME. The display will show the toasting time determined by the toasting level. To adjust the toasting time, use the START/PAUSE dial.

YOGURT

Set the Bravo cooking Temp to 275F (135C). With the probe set to 185F (85C), insert it into the milk and secure it with the probe clip. Place the bowl into the Bravo and heat it to 185F (85C).
When the milk reaches 185F (85C): Bravo will sound two long beeps. Now, set the probe Temp to 110F (43C) and allow the milk to cool. To speed this process, open the Bravo's door or remove the bowl and place it in an ice water bath (leave the probe connected).
When the temp reaches 110F (37C), the Bravo will beep for 1o minutes, or until deactivated. At this point, follow the recipe directions, place the bowl back into the Bravo and close the door.

TROUBLESHOOT GUIDE

The Bravo was engineered with an automatic shut-off feature to prevent overheating during use. If the Bravo shuts off to cool itself down, an odor may be detected. Unplug the unit and wait for it to completely cool down. To prevent the Bravo from overheating, do not cook foods at higher temperatures or longer times than recommended.

The Bravo does not work

1. The Bravo is not plugged in. Did not press "ON/ OFF".
2. Insert the plug into an appropriate grounded power socket. Press "ON/OFF". If still not working, contact Customer Service at 1-877-689-2838 or email [email protected].

The door to Bravo will not close completely

1. Food item is too large. Oven racks or accessories are not properly set in place.
2. Use smaller amounts of food to cook. Make sure Racks and Pans are slid into place and pushed all the way to the back of the unit.

The food is cooked unevenly

1. Check cooking progress throughout. Turn or rotate as needed to ensure even cooking.

Bake vs. Roast vs. Broil

1. Use Bake when cooking items that rise (e.g., cakes and cookies). Use Roast for dense foods that are browned throughout the cooking process. Use Broil to quickly brown or crisp a food item.

The Crumb Tray will not slide back into position

1. The Crumb Tray is not placed into the slot correctly. Something is blocking the Tray from sliding into position.
2. Remove the Crumb Tray and clean away any food items that may have accumulated in the back of the Bravo.

White smoke is coming out of the product

1. You are cooking greasy foods. The Baking Pan or Broiler Rack contains greasy residue from previous uses. When preparing greasy ingredients in the unit, large amounts of oil can smoke. The oil will produce white smoke. This will not affect the final cooking effect. White smoke is caused by grease heating up on the Cooking Racks, Baking Tray, Broiler Rack, Air Fry Basket, and/or Crumb Tray.
2. Clean Cooking Racks, Ba king Tray, Broiler Rack, Air Fry Basket, and/or Crumb Tray regularly between use.

The LED screen is blank

1. The Bravo overheated and has shut itself down. No action was taken after certain stages of cooking and unit shut down. Control Panel not working correctly.
2. Unplug the Bravo and allow the unit to completely cool. Plug back in and see if it is working. If the LED screen remains blank, contact Customer Service at 1-877-689-2838 or email [email protected].

The Bravo is not heating

1. Unit is unplugged. The Bravo has overheated. Heating elements are not working.
2. Make sure the Bravo is plugged in. Make sure the unit is has completely cooled. Plug in and see if unit comes up to correct temperature. If unit continues to not heat up, contact Customer Service at 1-877-689-2838 or email help@nuwavenow. com.

If the Bravo needs to be replaced or returned to the manufacturer, contact Customer Service at 1-877- 689-2838 or email: help@nuwavenow. com.
