Helpful hintsUsing the Racks The top rack is usually used as ahold down rack when cooking smallor lightweight foods. Unless otherwise specified, when tworacks are shown, food should becontained or sandwiched between thetop and bottom racks. When baking small items, use afoil-wrapped rack that is pierced witha few holes. Always place food directly on bottomrack unless otherwise specified. Use the bottom rack upper position,as a rule, when following your ownrecipe. 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 spraywill make cleanup even easier.(Do not spray the lid.) When preheating, remove bottomrack. Place food on rack while oven isheating, then replace quickly toprevent heat loss.Caring for Your Fan Blade Check fan blade periodically forflatness by spinning it on a flatsurface. Bent or warped blades willcause vibrating and/or unusual noise.Gentle adjusting by pushing down onthe blade (while on a hard, flatsurface) should correct any problems.If a blade is severely bent and cannotbe realigned, call our toll free numberfor assistance.Preheating If a recipe calls for preheating, alwayspreheat at 400 HIGH for 2 minutes.Cooking Semi-Liquids Start at LOW speed until surface isfirm enough to prevent movement.Cooking Bacon Cook on LOW speed and use cautionwhen preparing bacon to avoid steamburns when lifting the lid. When cooking bacon and eggs, putbacon on bottom rack and cover withtop rack (upside down and flat) andplace 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 addextra weight and eliminate danger ofpans levitating and causing damage tofan.Determining Cooking Times Use the cooking times in both thecharts and recipes as a guide.Variables in food size and thickness,humidity, altitude and your personalpreference for doneness all havebearing on actual cooking times.Cooking Baked Products Do not preheat when cooking bakedproducts.9

A 12 inch pizza pan with a hole inthe center works very well for cooking baked products. Call CustomerSatisfaction for details (800-2884545).Automatic Shut-off The unit shuts off automatically uponlifting the lid. Lift lid slowly toprevent liner from lifting and greasesplattering out.Using Foil Poke a few holes in foil to allow air tocirculate for better heating.with melted margarine or cooking oilto aid browning.Baking Frozen Pizza For best results, cover pizza with toprack at level 1. For crispier crust cut hole in center To decrease time, cut large pizza inhalf before cooking.Fig. AServing 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 verticallyon your counter top, under yourcupboards and out of the way.Converting RecipesAs 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 recipetime Experiment with fan speed - manyfoods will set on LOW and once setcan be finished on HIGH.Roasting Chicken Roast first half of cooking time withbreast down and turn breast up forsecond half.Cooking Meat As an option, lightly coat thin meats10Fig. B

Before You BeginPreparing Your Unit Before using your Jet-Stream Oven forthe first time wash base, liner, lid andracks in hot soapy water or run throughthe dishwasher. IMPORTANT - do notput fan assembly in water. For best results, and longevity of yourliner and non stick racks cure beforeusing. Brush a light coating of vegetableoil on the surfaces and then run unitempty at 400 HIGH for three minutes.IMPORTANT - do not brush oil on lid.Assembling the Oven Notice that the lid (#8 pg. 8) has 4nibs that correspond to 4 L-shapedridges (bayonette slots) in the fanassembly (#1). They allow a snug,precision fit and all 4 must be securelylocked together to prevent the lid fromreleasing during use. You must take careto assure that the lid is squared with thefan assembly. We suggest you lay the lidon a flat surface and insert the fanassembly into the opening. Press gentlyuntil the fan slides all the way in andturn clockwise until locked into place.Check for proper fit by jiggling theassembly, there should be no movement.The collar should be the same all theway around. If your machine does notclose properly, the lid is probably not onstraight, remove it and repeat theprocedure. (see fig. A & page 10)slot in Hinge Pin Assembly. Note: Ifdone correctly, one of the base’s handleswill be covered or hidden by the hingepin assembly (see fig. B page 10) Slide fan assembly (#1) onto silverhinge pin (#11) until firmly in place (seefig. C page 11). Place liner (#12) in base of unit (#13)and bottom rack (#10) on liner (#12).Never operate unit without using theliner (#12) as it may cause damage toyour counter top or other surface. Lower lid (#8) onto bottom base(#13). Make sure lid is closed and seatedproperly in the base. Check to see thatthe fan is in the “OFF” position and pluginto electrical outlet.

Use and CareYour Jet-Stream Oven is made of spaceage plastics, which are not only capableof withstanding high temperatures, butare also stain resistant and easy to carefor. To keep your Jet-Stream Ovenlooking new and functioning properly, itis important to follow the care instructions below.Protect the Non Stick SurfacesFor best results, use rubber, plastic orwooden utensils on the surface of theliner. Metal objects may cause damage tothe surface. Plastic scrubbing pads maybe used to remove baked on residue.Never use non stick spray on the lid,it will become gummy and very difficultto remove without damaging the surface.Using the LinerYour Jet-Stream Oven comes equippedwith a removable liner. The liner notonly makes cleanup a snap but doublesas a heat shield, keeping the bottom ofthe unit from reaching undesiredtemperatures. Always use the liner toprevent damage to counter top or othersurfaces.Never Restrict AirflowThe motor is located at the back of thefan assembly. It is important to keep thecounter clear behind the unit, to allowfree flow of air to the motor.Replacing the Bulbs (not on all units)Your Jet-Stream Oven comes with 4bulbs to enhance the visibility of yourfood while cooking. These are long-lifeand should not burn out for anextended period of time. If a bulb does12burn out, all 4 will go dark because theyare wired in a series. Replacement bulbsare available, free of charge, for units stillunder warranty. See the warranty sectionof this manual for information and warranty procedures.Voltage Drop in Older HomesIn older homes you may experience adrop in power, or blow a fuse or circuitbreaker, if the unit is run simultaneouslywith another high-wattage appliancesuch as a toaster or microwave oven.This is due to the limited amount of current available in older kitchens with 15amp service and is a common problemwith all high-wattage appliances.CleaningYour Jet-Stream Oven is made of durableeasy care plastics. Cleanup is quick andeasy. Disassemble oven before washing.Every part of your Jet-Stream Oven,except the power head, can be washedon the top rack of the dishwasher.Drying cycle must be on “Off” or“Energy Saver.”(Note: dishwasher mayleave film on metal parts which can beundesirable.)

Should stubborn stains occur in thebase, remove by soaking in a solution of1 2 cup liquid bleach and 4 cups of wateror use “dip-it ” coffee pot cleaner. DONOT use any spray cleaners.The Liner Pan and RacksPlastic mesh scrubbing pads may beused on the wire cooking racks forbaked on foods. The chrome finish onthe racks and nonstick finish on theliner pan should not require more thansoaking in hot soapy water to removestubborn stains. Do not use Easy Off on nonstick metal surfaces.Light Wash/Pre washUse this method for light cleaning jobsor as a pre-wash to make clean-up easierfor heavy cleaning followed by handwashing. Place top rack in liner pan,place bottom rack on top, pour 1 2 tsp.dish washing liquid into liner pan, add1 2 cup of warm water, close lid, settemperature control at 150 and fan onlow. Let run for 5-10 minutes.Disassemble oven, rinse thoroughly toremove all cleaning residue, and dry.For heavy cleaning jobs, use methodabove as a pre-wash to make clean-upeasier, followed by hand washing. If a lotof grease has collected in the liner panduring cooking, wipe out grease withpaper towels before using this cleaningmethod. Disassemble oven, rinse thoroughly to remove all cleaning residue,and dry.the occasion for it to get soiled. In theevent that it requires cleaning, the sameprecautions must be taken for cleaning itas 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 thewing nut and any washers and then thefan blade, taking care not to bend it (SeeFig. D).

Take care toreturn washers to their proper locationand securely fasten the wing nut (seeFig. D).Note: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorizedservice representative.Fig. DThe Fan AssemblyThe fan assembly requires littlemaintenance because there is seldom13

Lets Get StartedTo save time, cut large dense foodsinto smaller pieces.Although large items such as a wholechicken will cook up beautifully, it willtake more time than chicken cut intopieces because there is less surface areaavailable. For example, a whole chickenbaked in a conventional oven wouldtake about 2 hours. In the Jet-StreamOven , it would take 40 minutes, or 1 3the time. Chicken pieces in an ovenwould be done in about 60 minutes. Inthe Jet-Stream Oven they would take15-20 minutes, or 1 4 the time.Utilize the adjustable racks foroptimum results.The Jet-Stream Oven comes with 2adjustable racks which allow maximumairflow around the food. The size andconsistency of the food being prepareddetermines the appropriate level and/orcombination of racks to use.The bottom rack offers a reversibleupper/lower position. The top/holddown rack is adjustable to 3 differentlevels to accommodate differentthicknesses of food. The top rack alsoserves as a hold-down rack forlightweight foods. Rack placement isgiven for all recipes in this book, seeGuidelines at a Glance on next page.When placed directly on the rack, foodis cooked on both sides at once withoutturning! All cookware suitable for oven14and range top is also suitable for theJet-Stream Oven (microwave cookwareshould not be used unless the manufacturer states that it is oven safe). Somerecipes in this book call for a 12 inchpizza pan. This specifically refers to apan that has no rim or handles andmeasures a maximum of 12 to 121 4inches across. In some instances thesame result may be achieved bywrapping the bottom rack tightly withheavy duty aluminum foil.Cook a whole meal at once.One of the nicest features of your newJet-Stream Oven is it’s ability to preparean entire meal simultaneously in onecooking enclosure, which washes upeasily in the dishwasher. See our “QuickCombo’s ” section on page 50 for somecreative combinations and then createsome of your own!Use accessory expander ringswhen a larger capacity is needed.Don’t limit the benefits of the Jet-StreamOven to just the small jobs. With accessory expander rings you can even roast a12lb. turkey in 1 and 3 4 hours vs. 4hours in your conventional oven!Check with your local retailer or ourCustomer Satisfaction Department foravailability.
