Oven Use; Aluminum Foil; Positioning Racks And Bakeware - Jenn-Air JDS9860 User Manual

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.
To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is
at least ½" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned
up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or
bottom.
Racks
Depending on your model, 2 or 3 standard flat racks are
included.
Position racks before turning on the oven.
Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
Make sure racks are level.
To Remove Oven Racks:
Pull rack out to the stop position, raise the front edge, and then
pull out.
To Replace Oven Racks:
Place rack on the rack support in the oven. Tilt the front edge up
slightly, and slide rack back until it clears the stop position. Lower
front and slide back into the oven.
