About Your Jenn-Air
Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air wall oven. Your Jenn-Air
convection oven combines the best of two cooking methods, convection and
radiant bake (conventional) baking or roasting, in a self-cleaning oven.
The Jenn-Air convection oven is actually a conventional oven that circulates
heatedair withintheoven. As bothbake andbroil heatingelementscycleonand
off with the thermostat, a fan keepsthe heated air circulating around the food.
The constantly recirculating heated air inthe convection oven strips away the
layer of cooler air that surrounds food. Consequently, many foods cook more
quickly. Distributed heat makes multiple rack cooking possible. Convection
roastedmeats retaintheir natural flavor and juiciness with less shrinkage than
radiant bake roasting.
Inaddition to the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking, your oven is
also a fine fullfeatured "bake and broil" oven.
You cancook your "old favorite" recipes as you have in the past. The radiant
bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparing various foods when
convection cookingmaynotbe asbeneficial,aswhencooking foods incovered
casseroles orclay pots.
The broil element isconvenient for top browning and oven broiling offoods.
The time bake feature can be used with eitherthe convection or radiant bake
oven.

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 Con-
tractor.
6. Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven.
7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire orflame or use
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may result inburns 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 notto 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. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan and other
utensils.
17. Listen forfan. 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
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 letclothing 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 sur-
faces are: oven vent openings and surfaces near these
openings, oven doors, windows of oven doors.
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
ofthis appliance are hereby warned that when the oven isengaged
in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low level exposure to
some of the listed substances, including Carbon Monoxide. Expo-
sure to these substances can be minimized by properly venting the
range to the outdoors during the self-clean cycle.
