Delay Function:
The purpose of this function is to allow for set programs to start at a later time.
To delay a program, press “Prog,” then press the “Time” button. A “0” will ash in the
Lower right corner of the display panel. Press the “+” button until the desired amount
of time you wish to delay the program start is reached (for more information, review
SETTING TIME on the top of this page). Then press “Prog” again to set cooking
program. The amount of time selected for delay is included in the programmed
stages. To continue to the next stage, press “Low” to “Max /Sear” to set the cooking
temperature. Continue with step #2 from the “PROGRAMMING FUNCTION”
instructions. Once ready for the countdown to begin, press “Start.” When delay
countdown reaches “0,” the NuWave™ PIC2 will beep twice to signal the end. At this
point, the cooking time will start and the temperature will be displayed.
Programming Function (Stage Cooking):
• Press the “Prog” button.
• “Pro” will appear in the display panel.
1. Input the desired set temperature, ranging from “Low” to “Max/Sear.” If you
need to increase or decrease the temperature, press the “-” or “+” buttons.
2. Press the “Time” button. 00:00 will appear on the display, then press the “-” or
“+” buttons until you reach the desired time. See above section “SETTING
TIME” for detailed information on how to enter minutes and hours.
•To add additional stages, repeat steps 1 and 2 and then press “Start” to begin your
program. You may program up to 10 stages (delay is considered a stage).
•If you need to change any part of the program, press the “Pause/Clear” button twice
to start over.
Example: In order to boil for 5 minutes before reducing to simmer for 20 minutes,
press “Prog,” then press the “Max/Sear” button. Press the “Time” button once, then
press “+” until you reach 5. Press “Low” next, then press “Time” twice, then “+” until
you reach 20. Finally, press “Start.”
NOTE: Maximum programmable cook time is 99 hours and 60 minutes.
Pause /Clear Function:
To interrupt cooking time, press the “Pause/Clear” button once. This will pause the
PIC at whatever might be the current stage. The temperature will remain listed in the
display panel, but the “F” will be blinking. To resume, press “Start.”
To CLEAR the cooking mode or display while the NuWave™ PIC2 is in operation,
press the “Pause/Clear” button twice. The screen will be fully cleared, a “0” will
appear and the unit will turn off.
Setting Cooking Time:
Press the “Time” button. A “0” will ash in the far right corner of the display panel.
Press the “+” button until you reach the desired amount of time. Examples: To
program 5 minutes press “Time” once, then press “+” until you see 00:05 on the
display. Then press “Start.” For 20 minutes, press “Time” twice, then press the “+”
button until you see 00:20, then press “Start.” For 2 hours and 30 minutes, press
“Time” twice before pressing “+” until you reach 3, then press “Time” again. Press “+”
until you reach 2 (the display will show 02:30), then press “Start.”
• The blinking “0” indicates the digit you can adjust. The maximum time is
99 hours and 60 minutes.
• The display shows hours and minutes, but not seconds.

An E1 reading typically means that your NuWave™ PIC2 does
not detect cookware on its surface. This can occur for one of
two reasons.
1. Have you placed a pot or pan on the unit? The induction coils
contained within the NuWave™ PIC2 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 units voltage is too Low. Minimum = 85 volts
The units voltage is too high. Maximum = 144 volts
Overheating, or air ventilation is obstructed. If internal temperature
exceeds 230°F F, 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 20º F higher than sear,
the appliance will turn off. 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
button once. Continue cooking by pressing the “Start” button within 45 minutes.
• The unit will turn off after 45 minutes if no buttons (such as “Start”) are pressed.
When the unit shuts off, it will clear all previous cooking history.
• After pressing the “Pause/Clear” button twice or cooking has stopped, the fan will run up
to a maximum of 60 seconds until the unit cools. At that point the NuWave™ PIC2 will
turn off.
