SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

Read before operating your oven

All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the potential through improper or careless use to create safety problems. Therefore the following safety precautions should be observed:

1. Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

2. Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

4. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance.

5. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual.

All other servicing should be referred to an authorized Jenn-Air

Service Contractor.

6. Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven.

7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

8. Use only dry potholders.

Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

9. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

10. Do not heat unopened food containers.

Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

11. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.

12. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot heating element in oven.

13. Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

14. Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

15. Clean only parts listed in this manual.

16. CAUTION: BEFORE SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN,

REMOVE BROILER PAN, FOOD, AND OTHER

UTENSILS.

17. Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard anytime the oven is turned on. If not, call a serviceman before selfcleaning again.

18. DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR

SURFACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.

Interior surfaces of any oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns -among these surfaces are: oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven doors, windows of oven doors.

19. Do not allow aluminum foil or meat probes to contact heating elements.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE AND WARNING

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement

Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of

California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low level exposure to some of the listed substances, including Carbon Monoxide.

Baking

General IBaking Recomnnendations

• When cooking foods for the first time in your new oven, use recipe cooking times and temperatures as a guide.

Use tested recipes from reliable sources.

• Preheat the oven only when necessary. For baked foods that rise and for richer browning, a preheated oven is better. Casseroles can be started in a cold oven. Preheating takes from 6 to 8 minutes; place food in oven after

BAKE INDICAT©R LIGHT cycles off.

Arrange oven racks before turning on oven. Follow suggested rack positions on pages 11 and 13.

• Allow about 1 to 1'/2 inches of space between the oven side walls and baking pans to allow proper air circulation.

• When baking foods in more than one pan, place them on opposite corners

of the rack. Stagger pans when baking on two racks so that one pan does not shield another.

(See above photo.)

• To conserve energy, avoid frequent or prolonged door openings.

At the end of cooking, turn oven off before removing food.

• Always test for doneness (fingertip, toothpick, sides pulling away from pan). Do not rely on time or brownness as only indicators.

• Use good quality baking pans and the size recommended in the recipe.

• Dull, dark, enameled or glass pans will generally produce a brown, crisp crust. Shiny metal pans produce a light, golden crust.

• Frozen pies in shiny aluminum pans should be baked on a cookie sheet on rack 1 or be removed to a dull or glass pan.

NOTE: A fan should come on during the BAKE cycle.

Roasting

General Roasting

Preheating is not necessary.

Reconnnnendations

For open pan roasting, place meat or poultry on the slotted portion of the two-piece pan included with the oven. Do not add water to the pan. Use open pan roasting for tender cuts of meat. Less tender cuts of meat need to be cooked by moist heat in a covered pan.

For best results, a meat thermometer is the most accurate guide to degree of aloneness. The tip of the thermometer should be located in the thickest part of a

roast, not touching fat, bone, or gristle. For turkeys and large poultry products, insert the tip of the thermometer into the thickest part of the inner thigh.

• Place roast fat side up to allow self basting of meat during roasting.

• Since meats continue to cook after being removed from the oven, remove roast from oven when it reaches an internal temperature about 5 degrees below the temperature desired.

• For less loss of juices and easier carving, allow about 15 minutes "standing time" after removing meat from oven.

• For best results in roasting poultry, thaw completely.

Due to the structure of poultry, partially thawed poultry will cook unevenly.

• Minutes per pound will vary according to the size, shape, quality, and initial temperature of meat as well as the electrical voltage in your area.

• A large cut of meat will usually require fewer minutes per pound to roast than a smaller cut of meat.

• Since the breast meat on a large turkey cooks more quickly than the thigh area, place a "foil cap" over the breast area after desired brownness is reached to prevent overbrowning.

• A stuffed turkey will require an extra 30-60 minutes depending on size. Dressing should reach an internal temperature of 165° F.

• Use meat roasting charts in standard cookbooks for recommended times and temperatures for roasting cuts of meat not listed on page 15.

NOTE: A fan should come on during the BAKE cycle.

Broiling

The broil element provides flexibility for broiling foods. If you have a Jenn-Air grill, we recommend you use the grill for most of your broiling.

There are some types of foods that do require use of the oven broil element. These include foods such as stuffed lobsters, meringue pies, or other foods which require top browning.

To Broil

1. Place oven rack on the rack position suggested in the chart. Distance from broiling element depends on foods being prepared.

Rack position #4 is usually recommended otherwise stated.

unless

2. Turn SELECTOR setting. knob to BROIL

3. Turn THERMOSTAT knob to BROIL.

4. Place food on pan provided with oven.

After top broil element is red place food in oven.

Preheating takes a few minutes, or until element glows a bright cherry red.

5. Leave oven door open at broil stop position when broiling.

Broiling Tips

• Tender cuts of meat or marinated meats are best for broiling.

This includes rib and loin cuts of steak, ground beef, ham steaks, lamb chops, poultry pieces or fish. For best results, steaks should be at least 1" thick.

Thinner steaks should be pan-broiled.

Do not cover broiler grid with foil since this prevents fat drippings from draining into bottom of pan.

• Before broiling, remove excess fat from meat and score edges of fat (do not cut into meat) to prevent meat from curling. Salt after cooking.

• To prevent dry surface on fish or lean meats, brush melted

• Foods that require meat with tongs turning should to avoid piercing be turned only once and loss of juices.

Oven Cleaning

How the Self-Cleaning Process Works

When the oven controls are set to CLEAN, the oven heats to temperatures that are higher than those used for cooking.

The high temperatures cause food soil to burn off and substantially disappear.

While this occurs, a device in the oven vent helps to consume normal amounts of smoke. The oven is vented through an opening below the control panel.

How to Prepare

the Self-Cleaning

Oven Before Operating

Process

• Remove the roasting pan and any other pans from the oven. These pans cannot withstand the high temperatures of the cleaning process.

Clean spatters and spills from those areas which will not be cleaned during the selfcleaning process:

--center front of oven and door near opening in door gasket.

--porcelain oven door liner (area outside the door gasket).

--porcelain oven front frame.

NOTE: DO NOT CLEAN the serial plate located on the oven front.

To clean these areas, use hot water and detergent, nonabrasive cleansers or soap filled steel wool pads. Rinse thoroughly, being careful not to use an excessive amount of water that would dampen the door gasket. Soilleft in these areas will be more difficult to remove after the self-cleaning process since the

high heat will bake on any soil that is present.

DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL

OVEN CLEANERS TO CLEAN THESE AREAS.

• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN, RUB, OR APPLY WATER TO GASKET. The gasket is essential for a good door seal. Rubbing or cleaning will damage the gasket and may affect the seal.

Wipe up excess grease and food spillovers which have not baked on the bottom of the oven. Large accumulations of soil can cause heavy smoke or fire in the oven during the cleaning process.

Although smoke or fire in the oven is a normal occurrence and there is no safety problem, there will be venting of excessive smoke and odor.

18

• The oven racks can be cleaned in the oven.

However, the oven racks will discolor, lose shininess, and become difficult to slide in and out if left in the oven during the cleaning process.

REMOVE RACKS FROM OVEN IF THIS DIS-

COLORATION WILL BE OBJECTIONABLE.

As a suggestion, do not leave the racks in the oven during each self-cleaning process if they do not need to be cleaned since they will discolor to a dull silver after many cleanings.

Moderately soiled racks can be cleaned with a soapy S.O.S. pad or Scotch-Brite scour-pad.

Stubborn stains need to be removed in the self-cleaning process.

Be sure to read special tips on page 21 if oven racks are cleaned during the self-cleaning process.

Steps to Follow for Self-Cleaning Process

1. Turn SELECTOR knob to CLEAN.

2. Turn THERMOSTAT knob fully clockwise to

CLEAN until it comes to a full stop.

3. Close oven door.

4. Move DOOR LOCK LEVER to the full right position.

5. Set clock controls to clean oven using one of the following procedures:

To sel oven to slarl cleaning inaiuedl;alely:

An automatic program of 3 hours is pre-set for an average soiled oven. For a heavily soiled oven, program can be extended up to 4 hours.

For an average soiled oven: Push SELF-CLEAN button.

For a heavily soiled oven: Push SELF-CLEAN button.

Turn SET dial to 4:00.

NOTE: To prevent accidentally changing the cleaning cycle, push TIMER button to return to time of day.

19

To set oven to start cleaning at at later time:

An automatic program of 3 hours is pre-set for an average soiled oven. For a heavily soiled oven, program can be extended up to 4 hours. a. For an average soiled oven: Push SELF-CLEAN button.

For a heavily soiled oven: Push SELF-CLEAN button. Turn SET dial to 4:00.

b. Push STOP TIME button. Turn SET dial to time of day desired for clean cycle to end. The start time will be calculated.

NOTE: To prevent accidentally changing the cleaning cycle, p.ush TIMER button to return to time of day.

6. The cleaning process begins immediately unless the self-cleaning process has been set for a delayed start When the oven temperature reaches 550 °F, the LOCK

INDICATOR LIGHT will glow and the door cannot be opened until the temperature drops below 550° F. DO NOT TRY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR WHILE LOCK INDI-

CATOR LIGHT IS ON. The normal cleaning process takes the time selected on the clock plus about 45 minutes for the oven to cool down before the LOCK INDICA-

TOR LIGHT goes out and the door can be opened.

7. After the LOCK INDICATOR LIGHT goes out, move the DOOR LOCK LEVER to the left. The oven door can now be opened.

8. Turn the SELECTOR AND THERMOSTAT knobs from CLEAN to OFF after the

door is unlocked.

To stolD cleaning process before lock indicator light comes on:

1. Move the DOOR LOCK LEVER to the left.

2. Turn SELECTOR and THERMOSTAT knobs from CLEAN to OFF.

3. Push SELF-CLEAN button.

To stop cleaning process

1. Push SELF-CLEAN button.

after lock indicator light comes on:

2. Leave the THERMOSTAT and SELECTOR knobs in the CLEAN position.

3. Allow oven to cool until the LOCK INDICATOR LIGHT goes out. This may take up to

45 minutes, depending on how long the oven has been on.

4. After LOCK INDICATOR LIGHT goes off, move the DOOR LOCK LEVER to the left.

5. Turn SELECTOR and THERMOSTAT knobs from CLEAN to OFF.

More Information

SelfoCleaning on the

Process

• A slight odor may be detected, and if an oven is heavily soiled, some smoke may be visible.

Some smoke and odor during the cleaning process is a normal occurrence.

Since the oven is vented in front, vapors, moisture, etc. may be seen coming from this area.

• During the cleaning process, do not be alarmed if an occasional flame is visible through the oven window.

This is caused by excessive food soil that was not removed before the oven was set to clean.

SINCE THE DOOR AND WINDOW OF THE OVEN WILL GET WARM DURING

THE SELF-CLEANING PROCESS, AVOID CONTACT.

• Some types of soil may disintegrate but leave a light film or heavier deposit of ash. The amount of ash depends on the amount of soil which was in the oven.

After oven has cooled, this ash may be removed with a damp sponge.

If other dark deposits remain after wiping with a sponge, the time set for the length of cleaning was not enough.

Increase the cleaning time for future cleanings or clean more frequently.

The normal cleaning time is 3 hours. A maximum of 4 hours may be selected if necessary.

• If racks have been left in oven during the cleaning process, they should be treated as follows. After the cleaning process is completed and the oven has cooled, buff the underside of rack edges with Scotch-Brite scour-pad or rub lightly the underside of rack edges with a coating of vegetable oil. Use a light application of oil so it does not soil the oven. As a suggestion, use fingertips to apply oil. This will make the cleaned racks slide more easily.

• To remove occasional spillovers between cleanings, use a soap-filled scouring pad or mild cleanser; rinse well.

• It is better to clean the oven regularly rather than wait until there is a heavy buildup of soil in the oven.

• During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well ventilated to help eliminate normal odors associated with cleaning.

Any attempt to force the self-clean DOOR LOCK LEVER to lock or unlock may result in damage to the door locking mechanism.

• DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS IN OR AROUND THE SELF-

CLEANING OVEN AREA.

• DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL OR OTHER LINERS IN THE OVEN.
