Assembly
Connecting Power Head to Dome
- Place Power Head on rim of the Dome
- Lock it into place by rotating the Power Head clockwise until the locking lugs are engaged.
Assembling the Full NuWave Oven
- Place Base Tray on a firm, stable surface, but never on a stovetop.
- Place Liner Pan inside Base Tray. When doing so, make sure the handles are in the dropped down position. If the handles are not fully dropped, the Dome may not fit over the Base properly.
- Place dual level Cooking Rack in the Liner Pan according to cooking requirements.
- Place food on Rack.
- Place Dome with Power Head over food, connecting to the Base Tray. The Dome should fit evenly onto the Base.
- Set cook time and temperature according to recipe requirements.
BEFORE USING:
Prior to the first use of your NuWave Oven, wash Dome, Liner Pan, Base, and
Cooking Rack in warm soapy water or run through a dishwasher cycle.
IMPORTANT – Do not wash or immerse Power Head in water or cycle through
dishwasher. The outer surface may be cleaned by wiping carefully with a damp
dishcloth or sponge.
INSTALLATION
How to Install and Use Dome Holder
Make sure the Power Head is tightly locked onto the Dome. The whole assembly
can be easily lifted and put aside as shown in steps 1, 2 and 3.
-
Step 1
Place Dome Holder under either side of Base handle. -
Step 2
Make sure both feet of the Dome Holder are situated inside the handle, and the Dome Holder is resting horizontally on a flat surface. -
Step 3
Place the assembled Power Head and Dome at a 45° angle on the holder as shown.
Note: Do not leave Dome in Dome Holder for an extended period of time.
Cooking Instructions
Only lift Dome by the handles on the Power Head. Once the Power Head and the Dome are assembled, the handles will allow you to lift both together when removing or checking food. When removing Liner Pan after cooking, be extremely careful and always use oven mitts. For best results, follow the time, temperature, and Cooking Rack height instructions provided in the cooking chart and recipe book. No preheating required.
Models Containing 3-inch Extender Ring
If your NuWave Oven included a 3-inch Extender Ring, the Ring can be used for
multi-level cooking or for oversized food items that may not fit under the
standard Dome. Generally, foods (such as a ham or turkey) that exceed 10
pounds would require the use of the Extender Ring for optimal cooking.
Directions
The Extender Ring should be positioned between the original Dome and the Base.
The addition of the Extender Ring will expand the NuWave Oven’s available
cooking space by approximately 440 cubic inches when using the 3-inch Ring.
When adding the Extender Ring to the NuWave Oven, make sure it fits snugly
onto the Dome. When the Ring is placed under the Dome incorrectly, the
overlapping edges will not fit together properly. Please use caution when
using the Ring. If improperly used, heat or steam could escape from Oven which
could cause burns or alter the necessary cooking times of your foods. The
Extender Ring should only be used as an accessory item with the NuWave Oven.
It is not intended to serve as a replacement for the Dome, Base, or any other
components of the NuWave Oven.
General Rules
- Place foods that require the longest cooking time on the rack closest to the heating element (ex. potatoes, carrots), and place soft vegetables on the lower racks (ex. mushrooms, tomatoes).
- When choosing the multi-level cooking option, use food combinations that take roughly the same amount of time to prepare. Examples: pork or chicken and potato wedges; fish and stewed tomatoes; or frozen beef with baked potatoes.
- If top layer foods finish cooking earlier, remove rack(s) from above and continue cooking bottom foods until done.
- Use shallow or oven-safe dishes for cooking.
- To warm bread, place it on the bottom rack or Liner Pan and cover. To bake bread, place bread on the top rack.
Models Containing Extender Ring Kit
-
2-inch Rack
The 2-inch Rack for the NuWave Oven Pro Plus can be used in a variety of ways.- It can be the primary rack with or without the Extender Ring.
- With the Extender Ring, it can be positioned on top of or under the 3-inch rack for more multi-level cooking space.
- Without the Extender Ring, the 2-inch rack can also facilitate multi-level cooking by creating a third cooking surface between the Liner Pan and the bottom of the 3-inch rack.
- You may use two extra 2-inch racks above and below the 3-inch rack, which is especially useful for dehydrating.
Note: The 2-inch rack is only to be used in the positions and purposes shown below. Any other uses may affect cooking time and quality.
Care and Use
The Stainless Steel Extender Ring should not be cleaned with any harsh
abrasive, but it is dishwasher safe.
CAUTION Do not touch the Dome or any surface on the cooking area during operation. The air inside the Dome can reach 350°F (177°C) which makes the surface very hot and may cause burns. Do not open the Dome or remove the power head while the NuWave Oven is operating. Turn off the power before removal.
General Use Instructions
- Do not place the Pro Plus or any associated parts directly on your stove top, inside a conventional oven or in contact with any other direct heat source. Damage may result.
- Make sure the unit is plugged into a properly grounded outlet and that the cord is not touching any heated objects.
- Be certain that Liner Pan has been properly placed within the Base.
- Metal, glass or silicone dishes and pans, and all other oven-safe materials used in a conventional oven may be utilized in the NuWave Pro Plus.
- Always place the Dome back onto the Base when finished cooking.

perfect for reheating single portion-sized foods. To activate the reheat
function, make sure programming is clear. The LCD display will read 0. Press
the Reheat Button. This will activate the default setting. Press Start. Oven
will “beep” 3 times once time has expired. For example, if you are warming
leftover pizza, simply place the slice on the 3-inch rack, press Reheat, then

You may program the oven to keep foods warm for up to 9 hours and 59 minutes. Once the initial cooking cycle is finished, the oven will “beep” twice before switching to the Warm function.
CLEANING AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Unplug the unit before cleaning. The Dome and all other parts, except the Power Head, are dishwasher safe. Protect the metal and plastic surfaces; do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Clean after each use. The outer surface of the Power Head can be cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth.
IMPORTANT – Do not wash or immerse Power Head in water or cycle through dishwasher. The outer surface may be cleaned by wiping carefully with a damp dishcloth or sponge.
IMPORTANT TIPS:
- Check the power outlet to ensure proper operation. NuWave Oven uses up to 1500 watts/12.5 amps. Do not operate the unit simultaneously with other major appliances plugged into the same outlet.
- Check the cooking temperature if Oven is cooking too slowly.
- The electrical plug must be properly inserted into the outlet.
- Always turn off and unplug the oven before washing.
- Moisture may accumulate inside Dome if food is not promptly removed once cooking time has expired. Steam/moisture buildup can be avoided through prompt removal of cooked foods.
- Do not rest Dome in Dome Holder for extended period of time, as it could warp. Always replace Dome on Base Tray promptly after removing food.
From the NuWave Chef:
For best results, we recommend that the food (meats, poultry, and fish) is
removed immediately from the oven after cooking to rest. Resting prevents
overcooking, and taking the time to let the food rest will ensure that it is
moist, tender, and juicy at the desired doneness. Remove the food from the
oven; place it on a plate or serving platter; and cover it loosely with a
foil. This will allow the juices that were driven to the center of the food
during cooking to be redistributed throughout the food and reabsorbed. Be
careful not to wrap the food too tightly as that may result in sweating and
will lead to loss of moisture you want to keep in the food. Resting times will
vary depending on the size of the food. As a general rule, roasts and whole
chickens should rest 15 to 30 minutes before carving. Steaks, chops, and
chicken breasts should rest at least 5 minutes. A
good rule of thumb is rest 1 minute for every 3.5 oz.
