moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
12.Always plug cord into the wall outlet before turning the machine on. To disconnect, turn switch to “OFF” before removing plug from wall outlet.
13.This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
14.If you have a countertop made of glass, Corian® or stone, set your Jet-Stream Oven on a cutting board, hot pad or trivet when cooking. The heat generated from some cooking appliances may damage these types of counter tops.
Short Cord Instructions-
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

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/Pre 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 121⁄4 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 availability.
