INITIAL START-UP PROCEDURE
A. Make sure the INSTALLATION of the unit is complete and correct. Check the exterior of the unit.
All cover panels must be in place (with the exception of the Outside Top), and the unit itself must be
securely seated on a level surface.
B. Check the interior of the unit. All interior parts must be installed and securely fastened. Make sure
the Door is fully closed and latched (the Oven Motor will not
run if the main Door is not fully
closed). YOU MUST REMOVE ALL PROTECTIVE TAPE PRIOR TO TURNING POWER
ON.
C. Engage the main power supply and set the Power Switch to the ON position. The interior lights
should come on and the Oven Blower Wheel should begin to rotate in a counter-clockwise direction
as viewed from the inside of the Oven.
NOTE:
The Oven Motor will not run if the Oven Door is not fully closed!
D. Set the Temperature Control to 300°. The Temperature Control Indicator Light will illuminate and
the Oven will begin to heat up.
E. Carefully remove the Outside Top and measure the amperage on the exposed power supply lines.
Compare these readings to the label on the side of your unit. If the readings and label differ by any
great amount turn the unit OFF and call the NU-VU
®
Service Department immediately at (906) 863-
4401. Carefully reposition the Outside Top on the Oven and press it into place if the amp readings
and label coincide. Be careful not to pull or pinch any wires while replacing the Outside Top.
F. Set each of the Timers in turn from 15 to 30 seconds and allow them to count down (refer to the
TIMER INSTRUCTIONS in the OPERATING GUIDE). An electronic Alarm should sound at the
end of each timed cycle. If a Timer or Alarm does not work please review the TIMER
INSTRUCTIONS or refer to the TROUBLE–SHOOTING GUIDE. If you still have a problem call
NU-VU
®
at (906) 863-4401 and ask for our Service Department. Someone there will be glad to
assist you in any way possible.
NOTE
. Press the Start-Stop key on the Timer to silence the Alarm earlier.
G. Place an accurate and reliable oven thermometer in the center of the Oven and allow the Oven to
heat to 300°. Compare the thermometer reading and the Temperature Control setting when the
Temperature Control Indicator Light goes out. If they differ by less than 10° the Oven is ready for
use. If there is a difference of 10° or more you may wish to adjust the Temperature Control.
Please call the NU-VU
®
Service Department at (906) 863-4401 before attempting to adjust the
Temperature Control!!!
Your PMA-5/12 or PMA-5/18 should now be
ready for all standard operations!!!
