Helpful hints
Using the Racks
• The top rack is usually used as a
hold down rack when cooking small
or lightweight foods.
• Unless otherwise specified, when two
racks are shown, food should be
contained or sandwiched between the
top and bottom racks.
• When baking small items, use a
foil-wrapped rack that is pierced with
a few holes.
• Always place food directly on bottom
rack unless otherwise specified.
• Use the bottom rack upper position,
as a rule, when following your own
recipe.
• When cooking individual items i.e.
baked potatoes or chicken fillets,
arrange around outside of rack.
Group lightweight foods together.
• Spraying rack with non stick spray
will make cleanup even easier.
(Do not spray the lid.)
• When preheating, remove bottom
rack. Place food on rack while oven is
heating, then replace quickly to
prevent heat loss.
Caring for Your Fan Blade
• Check fan blade periodically for
flatness by spinning it on a flat
surface. Bent or warped blades will
cause vibrating and/or unusual noise.
Gentle adjusting by pushing down on
the blade (while on a hard, flat
surface) should correct any problems.
If a blade is severely bent and cannot
be realigned, call our toll free number
for assistance.
Preheating
• If a recipe calls for preheating, always
preheat at 400˚HIGH for 2 minutes.
Cooking Semi-Liquids
• Start at LOW speed until surface is
firm enough to prevent movement.
Cooking Bacon
• Cook on LOW speed and use caution
when preparing bacon to avoid steam
burns when lifting the lid.
• When cooking bacon and eggs, put
bacon on bottom rack and cover with
top rack (upside down and flat) and
place eggs on top rack.
Using Cookware
• Use caution when using cookware i.e.
pizza pans with lightweight objects.
Use the top/hold down rack to add
extra weight and eliminate danger of
pans levitating and causing damage to
fan.
Determining Cooking Times
• Use the cooking times in both the
charts and recipes as a guide.
Variables in food size and thickness,
humidity, altitude and your personal
preference for doneness all have
bearing on actual cooking times.
Cooking Baked Products
• Do not preheat when cooking baked
products.
9
• A 12 inch pizza pan with a hole in
the center works very well for cooking baked products. Call Customer
Satisfaction for details (800-288-
4545).
Automatic Shut-off
• The unit shuts off automatically upon
lifting the lid. Lift lid slowly to
prevent liner from lifting and grease
splattering out.
Using Foil
• Poke a few holes in foil to allow air to
circulate for better heating.
Serving
• When your food is finished cooking,
detach the lid and hinge pin assembly,
and use the base as a serving dish.
Be careful, as the unit will be hot!
Storage
• Stand the unit upright to sit vertically
on your counter top, under your
cupboards and out of the way.
Converting Recipes
As a rule of thumb:
• Temperature will be the same
• Recipes calling for 425-475˚ use 400˚
• Time will be
1
⁄3 to 1⁄2 less than recipe
time
• Experiment with fan speed - many
foods will set on LOW and once set
can be finished on HIGH.
Roasting Chicken
• Roast first half of cooking time with
breast down and turn breast up for
second half.
Cooking Meat
• As an option, lightly coat thin meats
with melted margarine or cooking oil
to aid browning.
Baking Frozen Pizza
• For best results, cover pizza with top
rack at level 1.
• For crispier crust cut hole in center
• To decrease time, cut large pizza in
half before cooking.

Before You Begin
Preparing Your Unit
• Before using your Jet-Stream Oven™ for
the first time wash base, liner, lid and
racks in hot soapy water or run through
the dishwasher.
IMPORTANT - do not
put fan assembly in water.
• For best results, and longevity of your
liner and non stick racks cure before
using. Brush a light coating of vegetable
oil on the surfaces and then run unit
empty at 400˚ HIGH for three minutes.
IMPORTANT - do not brush oil on lid.
Assembling the Oven
• Notice that the lid (#8 pg. 8) has 4
nibs that correspond to 4 L-shaped
ridges (bayonette slots) in the fan
assembly (#1). They allow a snug,
precision fit and all 4 must be securely
locked together to prevent the lid from
releasing during use. You must take care
to assure that the lid is squared with the
fan assembly. We suggest you lay the lid
on a flat surface and insert the fan
assembly into the opening. Press gently
until the fan slides all the way in and
turn clockwise until locked into place.
Check for proper fit by jiggling the
assembly, there should be no movement.
The collar should be the same all the
way around. If your machine does not
close properly, the lid is probably not on
straight, remove it and repeat the
procedure. (see fig. A & page 10)
• Snap hinge pin assembly (#11) over
handle and leg of base (#13) as shown.
Then, insert the handle of the base into
slot in Hinge Pin Assembly. Note: If
done correctly, one of the base’s handles
will be covered or hidden by the hinge
pin assembly (see fig. B page 10)
• Slide fan assembly (#1) onto silver
hinge pin (#11) until firmly in place (see
fig. C page 11).
• Place liner (#12) in base of unit (#13)
and bottom rack (#10) on liner (#12).
Never operate unit without using the
liner (#12) as it may cause damage to
your counter top or other surface.
• Lower lid (#8) onto bottom base
(#13). Make sure lid is closed and seated
properly in the base. Check to see that
the fan is in the “OFF” position and plug
into electrical outlet.
• Place unit far enough away from wall
to assure free flow of air. Clear away any
objects on the counter top that may
obstruct airflow to the back of the unit.
• You are now ready to cook in your
new Jet-Stream Oven!

Use and Care
Your Jet-Stream Oven™is made of space
age plastics, which are not only capable
of withstanding high temperatures, but
are also stain resistant and easy to care
for. To keep your Jet-Stream Oven
looking new and functioning properly, it
is important to follow the care instructions below.
Protect the Non Stick Surfaces
For best results, use rubber, plastic or
wooden utensils on the surface of the
liner. Metal objects may cause damage to
the surface. Plastic scrubbing pads may
be used to remove baked on residue.
Never use non stick spray on the lid,
it will become gummy and very difficult
to remove without damaging the surface.
Using the Liner
Your Jet-Stream Oven comes equipped
with a removable liner. The liner not
only makes cleanup a snap but doubles
as a heat shield, keeping the bottom of
the unit from reaching undesired
temperatures. Always use the liner to
prevent damage to counter top or other
surfaces.
Never Restrict Airflow
The motor is located at the back of the
fan assembly. It is important to keep the
counter clear behind the unit, to allow
free flow of air to the motor.
Replacing the Bulbs (not on all units)
Your Jet-Stream Oven comes with 4
bulbs to enhance the visibility of your
food while cooking. These are long-life
and should not burn out for an
extended period of time. If a bulb does
burn out, all 4 will go dark because they
are wired in a series. Replacement bulbs
are available, free of charge, for units still
under warranty. See the warranty section
of this manual for information and warranty procedures.
Voltage Drop in Older Homes
In older homes you may experience a
drop in power, or blow a fuse or circuit
breaker, if the unit is run simultaneously
with another high-wattage appliance
such as a toaster or microwave oven.
This is due to the limited amount of current available in older kitchens with 15
amp service and is a common problem
with all high-wattage appliances.
Cleaning
Your Jet-Stream Oven is made of durable
easy care plastics. Cleanup is quick and
easy. Disassemble oven before washing.
Every part of your Jet-Stream Oven,
except the power head, can be washed
on the
top rack of the dishwasher.
Drying cycle must be on “Off” or
“Energy Saver.”(Note: dishwasher may
leave film on metal parts which can be
undesirable.) DO NOT use rinsing
agents in your dishwasher, they may
deteriorate the plastic. On occasion,
it may become necessary to soak parts
that have burned-on foods or greasy film
in hot soapy water. Do not use abrasive
metal cleaning pads or cleanser, they will
scratch the polished surfaces.
The Lid and Base
Easy-Off®oven cleaner, cold method,
can be used on both the lid and base
when soaking is not effective.
12
Should stubborn stains occur in the
base, remove by soaking in a solution of
1
⁄2 cup liquid bleach and 4 cups of water
or use “dip-it
®
” coffee pot cleaner. DO
NOT use any spray cleaners.
The Liner Pan and Racks
Plastic mesh scrubbing pads may be
used on the wire cooking racks for
baked on foods. The chrome finish on
the racks and nonstick finish on the
liner pan should not require more than
soaking in hot soapy water to remove
stubborn stains. Do not use Easy Off
®
on nonstick metal surfaces.
Light Wash/Pr e wash
Use this method for light cleaning jobs
or as a pre-wash to make clean-up easier
for heavy cleaning followed by hand
washing. Place top rack in liner pan,
place bottom rack on top, pour
1
⁄2 tsp.
dish washing liquid into liner pan, add
1
⁄2 cup of warm water, close lid, set
temperature control at 150˚ and fan on
low. Let run for 5-10 minutes.
Disassemble oven, rinse thoroughly to
remove all cleaning residue, and dry.
For heavy cleaning jobs, use method
above as a pre-wash to make clean-up
easier, followed by hand washing. If a lot
of grease has collected in the liner pan
during cooking, wipe out grease with
paper towels before using this cleaning
method. Disassemble oven, rinse thoroughly to remove all cleaning residue,
and dry.
The Fan Assembly
The fan assembly requires little
maintenance because there is seldom
the occasion for it to get soiled. In the
event that it requires cleaning, the same
precautions must be taken for cleaning it
as are taken for the liner and racks
(never use abrasive cleaning pads,
cleansers or Easy Off).
To disassemble the fan for cleaning,
unplug from the AC outlet, remove the
wing nut and any washers and then the
fan blade, taking care not to bend it (See
Fig. D). Wash the blade in hot soapy
water, rinse and dry. Wipe the rest of the
assembly with a hot soapy dish cloth,
using care not to get water inside the
unit. Rinse with clean damp cloth.
Do
not immerse the powerhead in water!
Before reattaching the fan blade check
for flatness by spinning it on a flat surface. “Gently” correct any problems by
pushing down on the blade while on a
hard, flat surface. If the blade is severely
bent and cannot be realigned, call our
toll free number for assistance.
Reattach the fan blade. Take care to
return washers to their proper location
and securely fasten the wing nut (see
Fig. D).
Note: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized
service representative.

Lets Get Started
To save time,cut large dense foods
into smaller pieces.
Although large items such as a whole
chicken will cook up beautifully, it will
take more time than chicken cut into
pieces because there is less surface area
available. For example, a whole chicken
baked in a conventional oven would
take about 2 hours. In the Jet-Stream
Oven
™
, it would take 40 minutes, or 1⁄3
the time. Chicken pieces in an oven
would be done in about 60 minutes. In
the Jet-Stream Oven they would take
15-20 minutes, or
1
⁄4 the time.
Utilize the adjustable racks for
optimum results.
The Jet-Stream Oven comes with 2
adjustable racks which allow maximum
airflow around the food. The size and
consistency of the food being prepared
determines the appropriate level and/or
combination of racks to use.
The bottom rack offers a reversible
upper/lower position. The top/hold
down rack is adjustable to 3 different
levels to accommodate different
thicknesses of food. The top rack also
serves as a hold-down rack for
lightweight foods. Rack placement is
given for all recipes in this book, see
Guidelines at a Glance
™
on next page.
When placed directly on the rack, food
is cooked on both sides at once without
turning! All cookware suitable for oven
and range top is also suitable for the
Jet-Stream Oven (microwave cookware
should not be used unless the manufacturer states that it is oven safe). Some
recipes in this book call for a 12 inch
pizza pan. This specifically refers to a
pan that has no rim or handles and
measures a maximum of 12 to 12
1
⁄4
inches across. In some instances the
same result may be achieved by
wrapping the bottom rack tightly with
heavy duty aluminum foil.
Cook a whole meal at once.
One of the nicest features of your new
Jet-Stream Oven is it’s ability to prepare
an entire meal simultaneously in one
cooking enclosure, which washes up
easily in the dishwasher. See our “Quick
Combo’s
™
” section on page 50 for some
creative combinations and then create
some of your own!
Use accessory expander rings
when a larger capacity is needed.
Don’t limit the benefits of the Jet-Stream
Oven to just the small jobs. With accessory expander rings you can even roast a
12lb. turkey in 1 and
3
⁄4 hours vs. 4
hours in your conventional oven!
Check with your local retailer or our
Customer Satisfaction Department for
