34. Never touch the insides
of the Bravo while it is
operating.
35. Never leave the Bravo
unattended during use.
36. Never put the Bravo against

Electrical Information
A short power-supply cord
is provided to reduce the
risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord. Longer
detachable power-supply
cords or extension cords are
available and may be used if
care is exercised in their use.
If a longer detachable power-
supply cord or extension cord
is used:
1. The marked electrical rating
of the extension cord should
be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the
appliance.
2. The longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not
drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it could
be pulled on or tripped
over unintentionally. The
Bravo should be operated
on a separate electrical
outlet from other operating
appliances due to wattage
limitations. The appliance
has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the

nuwavenow.com

other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not
attempt to modify the plug in
any way.
3. If the appliance is of the
grounded type, the cord set
or extension cord should be
a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

The Bravo is 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 Bravo 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. User 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 [e-mail].
The door to the 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 all racks and
pans are slid into place and pushed all the way to the back of
the Bravo.
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 contains greasy
residue from previous uses. When preparing greasy ingredients
in the Bravo, 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
Rack, Baking Pan, Baking Rack, or Crumb Tray.
2. Clean Cooking Rack, Baking Pan, Baking Rack, and Crumb
Tray regularly between use.
