Induction Cooktop-Compatible Cookware
ATTENTION:
The heating surface is located inside the thicker gold ring. You may use pans
measuring up to the total width of the NuWave PIC Gold, which measures 12.3
inches, however in these situations, heat will transfer more slowly to the outer
edges. Not recommended for pans larger than 12.3 inches.
Examples of compatible cookware:
All NuWave Cookware • NuWave Duralon Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware
Cast iron • Enameled iron and steel • Stainless steel with magnetic base
Non-induction-compatible cookware:
Copper • Glass • Aluminum • Pottery type vessels
How do I check my cookware for induction compatibility?
Three simple ways to check if your existing pots and pans, or future cookware
purchases, are compatible with the NuWave PIC Gold:
1. A magnet is typically a great indicator. If it sticks to the bottom of a piece
of cookware, this typically means the pot or pan is induction-ready. However
be cautioned that there are instances when a cooking vessel’s magnetic
properties may not be strong enough for the pot to work efciently with the
NuWave PIC Gold.
2. Place a small amount of water in a particular pot or pan.
If induction compatible, water will begin to boil.
3. An induction-ready symbol may be printed on the
bottom of the cookware.
IMPORTANT - Do not immerse unit in water or
attempt to cycle through dishwasher. The outer
surface may be cleaned by wiping carefully with
a damp dishcloth or sponge. Make sure unit has
cooled completely prior to cleaning.
As induction technology is based on magnetic principles, compatible cookware
must have a ferrous (iron-based, magnetic) bottom. Some types of cookware are
made of naturally magnetic metals (such as pure iron), while others are rendered
magnetic by “sandwiching” a thin layer of a ferrous metal within the base. This
layer will be acted upon by the magnetic eld of the induction cooktop to distribute
heat. Tri-ply, high-quality stainless steel and cast iron cookware will work with
induction cooktops. Copper, glass and aluminum cookware will not work unless
they have a sandwiched magnetic base. Pots that function optimally with the
NuWave PIC Gold tend to be medium to heavy gauge.
BEFORE USE:
Wipe surface with a cloth soaked in warm,
soapy water.
Cleaning & Care for Your
NuWave®PIC Gold

• 11
Owner’s Manual • 11
General Operating Instructions:
General Cleaning Instructions:
• Unplug the unit before cleaning.
• Clean after each use.
• Make sure unit has cooled completely prior to cleaning.
• The outer surface may be cleaned by wiping carefully with a damp dishcloth or
sponge.
• Remove the power plug prior to cleaning the NuWave Gold. Do not use caustic
cleaning agents and water should not penetrate the interior of the induction cooktop.
• Never immerse the NuWave PIC Gold, its cables or plug in water or other liquids.
• Wipe the glass surface with a damp cloth or use a mild, non-abrasive soap
solution. Make sure the unit has cooled completely before cleaning.
• Wipe casing and operating panel with a soft cloth dampened with water or a
mild detergent.
• Do not use oil-based cleansing products as their use may damage plastic parts
or the casing/operating panel.
• Do not use ammable, acidic or alkaline materials or substances near the
NuWave PIC Gold, as this may reduce the service life of the induction
cooktop or pose a re risk when the induction cooktop is in use.
• In order to keep your NuWave PIC Gold looking like new, take measures
to ensure that the bottom of cookware does not scrape the unit’s glass surface,
although a scratched surface will not impair the use of the induction cooktop.
• Make sure to properly clean the unit before storing it in a cool, dry place.
• Place the cooktop on a stable, level, non-metallic surface.
• Never use the cooktop on a ammable surface (e.g. table cloth, carpet, etc.).
• Do not block the ventilation slots of the induction cooktop. This may cause
the unit to overheat. Maintain a minimum distance of 3-5 inches from walls
and other objects, appliances, etc.
• Do not place devices or objects that are sensitive to magnetic elds on
top of or next to the NuWave PIC Gold.
(e.g. credit cards, cell phones, radios, TVs, video recorders, etc.).
• Do not use the induction cooktop in the proximity of open res,
heaters or other heat sources.
• Do not place on stove top.
• Ensure that the power cable is not damaged or compressed
beneath the induction cooktop.
• The power cable must not come into contact with sharp edges and/or hot surfaces.
• Prior to connecting the NuWave PIC Gold, conrm that the voltage
needs indicated in this manual correspond to the voltage supply in your home.
A wrong connection may lead to the unit’s damage and possible injury to persons.
• The cooktop’s surface is designed from temperature-resistant glass. In the event
that damage to the unit is observed, even a small crack on the glass surface,
immediately disconnect the NuWave PIC Gold from the power supply.
IMPORTANT TIPS:
1. Check power outlets to ensure proper operation. Do not use in an outlet
where other major appliances are engaged. Check settings if the unit is
cooking too slowly.
2. The electrical plug must be properly plugged into the outlet.
3. Always turn off and unplug the unit before wiping.

An E1 reading typically means that your NuWave PIC Gold does not
detect cookware on its surface. This can occur for one of
two reasons.
1. The induction coils contained within the NuWave PIC Gold will
only work when they are in direct contact with a piece of cookware.
To maintain your appliance’s effectiveness, always ensure that
it rests on a at surface and that contact is consistent with your
cookware.
2. An E1 message may also occur if your chosen cookware is not
induction-ready.
The unit’s voltage is too low. Minimum = 160 volts
The unit’s voltage is too high. Maximum = 270 volts
Overheating, or air ventilation is obstructed. If internal temperature
exceeds 110ºC, operation will cease and a “beep” noise will be
produced. Press “Pause/Clear” twice. Wait for the unit to cool.
In programming mode, when the total entered time reaches the
appliance’s limit of 99:60, no additional stages can be inputted.
Overheating, if unit exceeds a temperature 10ºC higher than sear,
the appliance will turn off. Contact customer service.
The unit is malfunctioning. Contact customer service.
• When any of the above error messages display on the LED, the unit will “beep” at
least once.
• The fan will run up to a maximum of 60 seconds after pressing the “Pause/Clear

Cooking Tips
This recipe book contains valuable information designed to assist
in the incorporation of the NuWave® PIC Gold into daily life. We’ve
provided easy-to-prepare recipes along with helpful tips at the
beginning of each section for perfect results every time.
Here are a few general suggestions to help you start cooking:
• Place a garbage bowl next to your cutting board for discarding
food scraps.
• Flexible cutting boards are very convenient. Just chop and lift
- no mess, no spills.
• Glass measuring cups are optimal for liquids while plastic
measuring cups work well for dried ingredients.
• After you have juiced lemons, put them in the garbage
disposal to freshen the surrounding air.
• Pay close attention to butter as it’s melting. Butter melts when
its internal temperature reaches a range between 28°C and
36°C. This means it melts fast, so be prepared to remove it
from the PIC quickly.
• Some of the enclosed recipes suggest prepping and/or
cooking items in the NuWave® Oven. Contact customer
service for more information or to place an order.

• Add a teaspoon of water for each egg and whip for ufer results. Heat pan
on high for 1 minute to ensure fast cooking.
• Cool down boiled eggs by placing them in a bowl of ice cubes while running
eggs under water. This will help peel eggs with ease.
• If, while cracking, a small egg shell fragment gets into the mix, take a larger
piece of the shell and place it into the egg mixture. The larger shell will serve
as a magnet, drawing the small fragment towards it.
• To prevent cheese from adhering to grater, spray utensil with non-stick
cooking spray.
• Spilled egg on PIC surface? Wipe clean, in seconds with hot soapy water.

Tips for Eggs
When storing your eggs, keep refrigerated, as they can lose more freshness
in one day at room temperature than they can in one week in the fridge. Eggs
should be kept in their original cartons in order to keep their moisture and avoid
getting odors from other foods. Keep them on the fridge shelf, not in the door to
avoid frequent temperature uctuations.
