TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
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 appliance does not work |
- The Bravo is not plugged in. User did not press ON/OFF.
- Insert the plug into an appropriate grounded power socket. Press ON/OFF. If still not working, contact Customer Service.
|
The door to the unit will not close completely |
- Food item is too large. Oven racks or accessories are not properly set in place.
- 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 |
- Check cooking progress throughout. Turn or rotate as needed to ensure even cooking. Check that the fan speed is at 3. Check Top/Btm percentages.
|
Bake vs Roast vs Broil |
- 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 |
- The Crumb Tray is not placed into the slot correctly. Something is blocking the Tray from sliding into position.
- 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 |

This will not affect the final cooking effect. White smoke is caused by grease heating up on the Cooking Rack, Baking Pan, Air Fry Basket or Crumb Tray.
- Clean Cooking Rack, Baking Pan, Air Fry Basket and Crumb Tray regularly between use.

Toaster Oven Warnings (UL Standard 1026, Section 71.7):
![burn hazard]()
![shock hazard]()
Oversize foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in a toaster oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the toaster-oven is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. DO NOT store any item on top of the appliance when in operation.
DO NOT clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating a risk of electric shock. - Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of materials other than metal or glass.

- Turn off the Toaster Oven by pressing the On/Off Button before unplugging the unit from the wall socket.
Power-Supply Cords
A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided to reduce the risk of 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 any countertop or tabletop where it could be pulled on or tripped over unintentionally.
- The Toaster Oven should be operated on a separate electrical outlet from other operating appliances due to wattage limitations.
