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 specifi-
cally 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 inor around any
part of the oven.
15. Clean only parts listed in this manual.
16. CAUTION: BEFORE SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN, REMOVE
FOOD, BROILER PAN AND OTHER UTENSILS.
17. Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard during the broil and
cleaning cycles. If not, call a serviceman before self-cleaning
again.
18. DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SUR-
FACES OF OVEN. Heating elements may be hot even though they
are dark in color. Interior surfaces of any oven may 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 sur-
faces near these openings, oven doors, windows of oven doors.
19. Do not allow aluminum foil to contact heating element.
20. PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's in-
structions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its film cover
distorts, warps or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immedi-
ately discard the food and its container. The food could be
contaminated.
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 reproduc-
tive 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. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by
properly venting the oven to the outdoors during the self-clean cycle.

Baking
General Baking Recommendations
• 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 7 to 10 minutes; place food in oven after Preheat beep.
• Arrange oven racks before turning on oven. Follow suggested rack positions on
page 11 and 15.
• Allow about Ito 1I/2 inches of space between the oven side walls and 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 unless shielding is intended. (See above)
• 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 cooling fan will operate during baking and roasting. The fan may also
continue to operate after the oven is turned off until the oven has cooled
down.

Roasting
General Roasting Recommendations
• Preheating is not necessary.
• 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
doneness. The tip of the thermometer should be located in the thickest part of
a roast, nottouching fat, bone, orgristle. Forturkeys and largepoultry 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.
• Forless lossof juices and easier carving, allow about 15minutes "standingtime"
after removing meat from oven.
• For best results in roasting poultry, thaw completely. Due to the structure of
poultry, partiallythawed 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. Times are
based on refrigerator cold meat.
• A large cut of meat will usuallyrequire fewer minutes perpound to roastthan a
smaller cut of meat.
• Sincethe breast meat on a large turkey cooks more quicklythan the thigh area,
place a "foil cap" over the breast area after desired brownness is reached to
prevent over browning. (See above)
• A stuffed turkeywill requirean extra30to 60 minutesdepending on size. Stuffing
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 found on p.17.
NOTE: A cooling fan will operate during baking and roasting. The fan may also
continue to operate after the oven is turned off until the oven has cooled
down.

Broil
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 recom-
mended unless otherwise stated.
2. Touch Broil Pad.
Indicator Word BROIL and 000° will appear in the Display.
NOTE: If more than 30 seconds elapses between touching Broil Pad and turning
the Set Dial, the oven is not set and the Display will return to previous Display.
3. Turn Set Dial clockwise to select Hi Broil or counterclockwise to select Lo Broil.
Use Hi Broil for most broil operations. When broiling longer cooking foods such as
pork chops, poultry or thick steaks, select Lo Broil. Low temperature broiling allows
food to cook to the well done stage without excessive browning.
Three seconds after turning dial, the broil element will come on and the Indicator
Words BROIL and ON will remain in the Display.
EXAMPLE: If at 4 o'clock you set the oven for broil (HI), the Display will show:
:00"'L
4. Place food on roasting pan provided with oven. PREHEAT broil element for 5
minutes. After broil element is red, place food in oven. Oven door MUST be left
open at broil stop position.
5. Touch Cancel/Off Pad to turn off oven when food is cooked.
[ NOTE: A fan comes on during the BROIL cycle. If the fan does not operate, contact 1
your authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor for repair.
18
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 butter on top.
• Foods that require turning should be turned only once during broiling. Turn meat
with tongs to avoid piercing 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 at the bottom of the control panel.
NOTE: If two W131 ovens are mounted one above the other, self-clean one oven at
a time for optimum cleaning results.
How to Prepare Oven Before Operating the
Self-Cleaning Process.
• Remove the roasting pan and any other utensils from the oven. These utensils
cannot withstand the high temperatures of the cleaning process.
• Clean spatters and spills from those areas which will not be cleaned during the
self-cleaning process:
center front of oven and door near opening in door gasket.
porcelain oven door liner (area outside the door gasket).
oven front frame.
NOTE: DO NOT CLEAN serial plate located ./
on the oven door liner.
To clean these areas, use hot water and deter-
gent, nonabrasive cleansers or soap filled steel __' ' J _"
to use an excessive amount of water that would
dampen the door gasket. Soil left in these areas
will be more difficult to remove after the self-
wool pads. Rinse thoroughly, being careful not ___"__
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 ON
OVEN DOOR. 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. For ease of cleaning, the heating element can
be lifted slightly.
20
• 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.
• 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 DISCOLORATION
WILL BE OBJECTIONABLE. As a suggestion, do not leave the racks in the oven
during each self-cleaning process ifthey 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 23 if oven racks are cleaned during the self-cleaning process.

More Information on the Self-Cleaning 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 vent is at the bottom of the control panel, 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
lightlythe 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 asoap-filled scouring
pad or mild cleanser; rinse well.
• It isbetter to clean the oven regularly rather than wait until there isa heavy build-
up of soil in the oven.
• During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well ventilated to help
eliminate normal odors associated with cleaning.
• DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS.
• DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL OR OTHER LINERS IN THE OVEN.
