Jenn-Air JES9860, JES9750 manual Convection Cooking, To Broil, Broiling Chart, To Convect Bake

To Broil:

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.

1.Press BROIL.

2.“HIGH” and “LOW” will be displayed.

Use the Quickset pads to select HIGH (550°F/290°C) for normal broiling or LOW (450°F/230°C) for low-temperature broiling.

OR

To select a broil temperature other than High or Low, enter the desired temperature (300°F/149°C to 550°F/288°C) using the number pads and press ENTER.

3.Press CANCEL when finished.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3" (7.0 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

Convection Cooking

(on some models)

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures 25°F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

■It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.

■Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary.

■Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.

■Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as using a toothpick.

WARNING

Burn Hazard

Use an oven mitt to remove temperature probe. Do not touch broil element.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.

■Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe (on some models) to determine the doneness of meats and poultry.

Convect Bake

(on some models)

Convect Bake can be used to bake and cook foods on single or multiple racks. It is helpful to stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.

When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures. Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven.

Allow the range to preheat before placing food in the oven.

During convection baking preheat, the broil elements and the bake element all heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the convection element will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.

If the oven door is opened during convection baking or preheating, the convection element and fan will turn off immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.

■Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may need to be reduced also.

To Convect Bake:

Before convection baking, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

1.Press CONVECT.

2.Select CNVT BAKE using the left Quickset pad.

3.Select the oven temperature using the Quickset pads.

OR

Press the number pads to enter a temperature. The temperature can be set between 195°F and 550°F (91°C and 288°C) in 5° increments when Auto Convect is on. If Auto Convect is off, temperature can be set from 170°F (77°C).

4.Press ENTER.

After 3 seconds, the oven will begin to preheat. “CNVT BAKE” and “PREHEAT” will appear in the display along with 100° or the actual oven temperature, whichever is higher.

The temperature in the display will increase in 1° increments until the oven reaches the preset temperature. Allow about 15 minutes for the oven to preheat.
