IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY • READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

When using the Brio, basic safety precautions should always be followed:

Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or the Brio in water or other liquids.
Do not operate the Brio with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
The use of other accessories that are not intended to be used with the Brio is not recommended. Doing so may damage the Brio and can cause accidents.
NOT INTENDED FOR OUTDOOR USE. FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including a stovetop.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or on a heated oven or on a stovetop.
During air-frying, hot steam is released from the air outlet vent. Keep hands and face at a distance from the steam and from the air outlet vent. Also, be careful of hot steam and air when removing Mesh Tray, Mesh Racks, Drip Tray or Rotisserie Basket and Rotisserie Skewer.
Never put the Brio against the wall or other appliances. There should be at least 3 inches of free space for the back side, left/ right sides, and the upper side of the Brio.
Do not place objects on top of the Brio.
Unplug the Brio from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the Brio to cool before cleaning, putting on or taking off parts.
Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in the Brio, as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the Brio is covered or touching flammable materials including curtains, draperies, walls, etc., when in operation.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electric shock.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other than metal or glass.

SEE QUICKSTART BEFORE USE

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:

The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
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 Brio 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 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.
If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Clean your Brio after every use or in between a number of large batches. Do not use metal utensils or harsh abrasives when cleaning as this can damage the coating.

Unplug the Brio and make sure it cools completely.
Use a damp cloth to wipe the outside of the appliance.
Clean the Mesh Tray, Mesh Racks, Drip Tray, Rotisserie Basket, and Rotisserie Skewer with a nonabrasive sponge, hot water, and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly.
To clean Probe, wipe end with a damp cloth or paper towel.

Note: Remove the Trays, Racks, Basket, and Probe. Place on a heatresistant surface to help cool the appliance quicker.

Note: If using the dishwasher for the Mesh Tray, Mesh Racks, Drip Tray, Rotisserie Basket, or Rotisserie Skewer, it is recommended to use top rack only. Hand-wash Probe.

Tip: If there is residual food in the Tray or Racks, add some hot water and let it soak separately for about 10 minutes for easier cleaning. Then, use a soft cleaning brush to remove any lingering food. Dry parts thoroughly.

Storage

Unplug the Brio and let it cool down completely.
Make sure that all the parts are clean and dry.
Store in a cool dry place.

Do not immerse unit and door 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.

Light Bulb Replacement

To replace bulb, turn off and unplug Brio. Ensure unit, bulb cover, and the bulb have cooled completely. Unscrew light bulb cover and light bulb. Replace bulb and cover before plugging back in and turning on.

Note: Before removing bulb cover and bulb, allow unit, including parts and insides, to cool completely.

The Door on the 14QT Brio is removable for easier, more thorough cleaning (hand-wash only).
To remove Door:

Make sure unit has completely cooled. Open Door down partially.
Holding the Door handle securely, lift up the Door out of the slots on both sides.
After cleaning, place back into slots. Open and close Door to ensure it is securely in place before use. Avoid getting water inside the window.

Notes: To clean the inside of the window, remove the screws located on the inside of the door using a Phillips screwdriver. Dry thoroughly before replacing.

In case of other problems, immediately unplug and contact Customer Service Department. 1-877-689-2838 • help@nuwavenow.com

TROUBLESHOOT GUIDE

The device is not turning on or working
The Brio is not plugged in. Did not press "ON/OFF" button. Insert the plug into an appropriate grounded power socket. Press "ON/OFF" button after settings are selected.
The ingredients fried in the Brio are not completely cooked.
Too many ingredients were used. The cooking temperature is too low. The cooking time is too short. Remove some ingredients from the Tray or Racks; smaller batches air-fry more evenly. Cook at a higher temperature. Set the Brio to air-fry for a longer time.
Fried snacks are not crispy when they come out of the Brio.
Use snacks designed to be baked in a traditional oven, or lightly brush some olive oil onto the snacks beforehand for a crispier result.
White smoke is coming out of the product
You are frying greasy foods. The Trays or Racks contain greasy residue from previous uses. When preparing greasy ingredients in the air fryer, large amounts of oil can smoke and infiltrate the Brio. Oil can produce white smoke and the Tray or Racks might become hotter than usual. This will not affect the final cooking result. White smoke is caused by grease heating up in the Tray or Racks. Make sure you clean Tray and Racks properly after use.
French fries are fried unevenly in the Device
You did not soak the potato sticks properly before air-frying them. You did not use the right potato type or they were not fresh. Soak potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, remove them, and dry with paper towels. Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay firm during air-frying.
French fries are not crispy when they come out of the Brio.
The crispiness of the fries depends on the amount of oil and water in the fries. Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly before adding oil. Cut the potato sticks smaller and dry them for a crispier result. Add slightly more oil on potatoes before placing in Brio for a crispier result.
