IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS

TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING:

 Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a

flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming
pan on a surface unit by covering the
pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat
tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.

 If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the

fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or
by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.

WARNING

 Never leave the surface units unattended at medium or

high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.

 Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to

heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting
in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a
deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil
temperature.

COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the

oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force
the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean
temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the
oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
severe burns.

 Only certain types of glass/ceramic, earthenware or

other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service;
others may break because of the sudden change in
temperature.

 To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of

flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a
container should be turned toward the center of the
range without extending over nearby surface units.

 To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of

oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen
foods with excessive amounts of ice.

 8VHSURSHUSDQVL]H³VHOHFWFRRNZDUHKDYLQJIODW

bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating
element. The use of undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.

 When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the

fan on.

 If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface

unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back on as soon
as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure
to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may
result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading
to serious injury or death.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

For Models With a Radiant Glass Cooktop

The radiant cooktop features heating units
beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new
cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused
by the heating of new parts and insulating

Never cook directly on the glass.
Always use cookware.

Always place the pan in the center of
the surface unit you are cooking on.

materials and will disappear in a short time.
NOTE: On models with light-colored glass

cooktop, it is normal for the cooking zones to
change color when hot or cooling down. This is
temporary and will disappear as the glass cools
to room temperature.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware on the glass
surface even when the cooktop is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the
glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue
cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans
from the surface units when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until
it has cooled completely.

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because

not scratchproof.

 Water stains (mineral deposits) are

removable using the cleaning cream or full­strength white vinegar.

 Use of window cleaner may leave an

iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning
cream will remove this film.

 Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop.

If they drop onto the cooktop, they can
cause damage.

 Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Temperature Limiter on Radiant Glass Cooktops

Every radiant surface unit has a temperature
limiter.

The temperature limiter protects the glass
cooktop from getting too hot.

The temperature limiter may cycle the surface

Selecting types of cookware for radiant glass cooktop models.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Check pans for flat bottoms by
using a straight edge.

Stainless Steel:

Recommended

Aluminum:

Heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues
sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop
but can be removed if cleaned immediately.
Because of its low melting point, thin weight
aluminum should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

Recommended

Copper may leave residues which can appear
as scratches. The residues can be removed, as
long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately.
However, do not let these pots boil dry.
Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops.
An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a
residue that will permanently stain the cooktop
if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

Recommended if bottom of pan is coated

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

Not recommended

Heating empty pans can cause permanent
damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt
and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended

Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

Not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Cast Iron:

1RWUHFRPPHQGHG³XQOHVVGHVLJQHGVSHFLILFDOO\

for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat. Will
scratch the cooktop surface.

Pans with rounded, curved,
ridged or warped bottoms are not
recommended.

Do not place wet pans

on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support

rings on the glass cooktop.

Use flat-bottomed woks

on the glass cooktop.

10

NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer’s recommendations when using any type of cookware on
the ceramic cooktop.

For Best Results

 Place only dry pans on the surface

elements. Do not place lids on the surface
elements, particularly wet lids. Wet pans
and lids may stick to the surface when
they cool.

 Do not use woks that have support rings.

This type of wok will not heat on glass
surface elements.

 We recommend that you use only a flat-

bottomed wok. They are available at your
local retail store. The bottom of the wok
should have the same diameter as the
surface element to ensure proper contact.



Some special cooking procedures require
specific cookware such as pressure cookers
or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have
flat bottoms and be the correct size.

holders to move the rack. Pull the rack out a
few inches and then carefully grasp the sides of
the rack to pull it out the rest of the way.

Do not place foods or baking stone
directly on the oven floor.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necessary for good results when
baking cakes, cookies, pastries and breads.

The display will show “PrE” while preheating.
When the oven reaches the selected
temperature, the oven control will beep and the
display will show the oven temperature.

If baking four cake layers at the same time,
place two layers on rack B and two layers on
rack D. Stagger pans on the rack so one is not
directly above the other.

Baking results will be better if the food is
centered in the oven as much as possible.
Angel Food cake is the exception and should
be placed on the bottom oven rack (position R).
Follow package direction on prepackaged and
frozen foods for pan placement. Pans should
not touch each other or the walls of the oven.
If you need to use two racks, stagger the pans
so one is not directly above the other. Leave
approximately 11ø2s between pans and from
the front, back and sides of oven wall.

Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a
sheet on a lower rack, several inches below
the food. Do not use more foil than necessary,
and never entirely cover an oven rack with
aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1 1/2” from the
oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

Back of OVEN TEMP knob

(knob appearance may vary)

To Adjust the Thermostat

Pull the OVEN TEMP knob off the range and

look at the back side. To make an adjustment,
loosen (approximately one turn), but do not
completely remove, the two screws on the
back of the knob.

With the back of the knob facing you, hold the

outer edge of the knob with one hand and turn
the front of the knob with the other hand.

To increase the oven temperature, move the

top screw toward the right. You’ll hear a click
for each notch you move the knob.

(on models with an OVEN TEMP Knob)

Each click will change the oven temperature

approximately 10°F. (Range is plus or minus
60°F from the arrow.) We suggest that you
make the adjustment one click from the
original setting and check oven performance
before making any additional adjustments.

After the adjustment is made, retighten screws

so they are snug, but be careful not to
overtighten.

Replace the knob, matching the flat area of the

knob to the shaft, and check performance.

To decrease the oven temperature, move the

top screw toward the left.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat,
the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a
spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand, contain
less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with
your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Lo pad again.

Touch the Start pad.

When broiling is finished, touch the Clear/

Off pad.

The size, weight, thickness,
starting temperature and
your preference of doneness
will affect broiling times. This
guide is based on meats at
refrigerator temperature.

Adjust rack position or broil
setting to achieve different
results. Move food closer
to the broil element for
greater searing and less
internal doneness. For less
searing,meat that is cooked
through, and thicker cuts
of meat use rack positions
further from the broiler or use
broil low.

protect against food borne
illness. Minimum safe food

We recommend venting your kitchen with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood
during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware
and any aluminum foil from the oven.

NOTE:

 If your oven is equipped with shiny, silver-

colored oven racks, we recommend
to remove them before you begin the
self-clean cycle. They may remain in the
oven during the self-clean cycle, but they will
darken, lose their luster and become hard to
slide.

 If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-

coated oven racks, they may be left in the
oven during the self-clean cycle.

How to Set the Oven for Self-Cleaning

Follow the directions in the Before a Self Clean
Cycle section.

Latch the door.

NOTE: Never force the latch. If the oven is too
hot, you will not be able to slide the latch. Allow
the oven to cool.

Turn knob to Self Clean position

The self-clean cycle will automatically begin.

While the oven is self-cleaning, the self clean
light will be on.

Soil on the front frame of the range and outside
the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned
by hand. Clean these areas with hot water,
soap-filled or plastic scouring pads or cleansers
such as Soft Scrub®. Rinse well with clean water
and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material
of the oven door gasket cannot withstand
abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain
intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed,
replace it.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds
to another well-ventilated room.

Slide the latch handle to the left as far as it

will go and open the door.

Never force the latch handle.
Forcing the handle will damage the door lock
mechanism.

The oven shuts off automatically when the
clean cycle is complete, and the self clean light
will be off.

Using the self-cleaning oven.

To Stop a Self-Clean Cycle

Turn knob to off position and wait for self clean
light to go off.

Wait until the oven has cooled below the
locking temperature to unlatch the door. You
will not be able to open the door right away
unless the oven has cooled below the locking
temperature.

After a Self-Clean Cycle

(on some models)

You may notice some white ash in the oven.
Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven
cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a
soap-filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly
with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue that
cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle,
repeat the cycle.



You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to be
unlatched.

 While the oven is self-cleaning, you

can press the Clock pad to display the time
of day. To return to the clean countdown,
press the Self Clean pad.

sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is
replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of
the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or
adults.

To ensure no damage is done to the finish of the

of a household liquid dish washing detergent. Apply
with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts.
It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they
may also be washed with soap and water. Make
sure the inside of the knobs are dry before replacing.

Replace the knobs, in the OFF position to ensure
proper placement.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each
use of the oven. Use a damp cloth to clean or rinse.
For cleaning, use mild soap and water or a 50/50
solution of vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean
water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.

Painted Surfaces

Painted surfaces include the sides of the range and
the door, top of control panel and the drawer front.
Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and
water solution.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the
surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm,
sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or
polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction
of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for
cleaning the stainless steel surface.

Do not attempt to clean, adjust or in any way repair
the plug-in receptacle.

Be sure all surface units are turned
off before raising the Cooktop.

22

Drip Pans

Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans.
For best results, clean the drip pans by hand. Place

them in a covered container (or a plastic bag) with

1

ø4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Rinse with clean

water and polish with a clean soft cloth.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Clean the area under the drip pans often. Built-up

soil, especially grease, may catch fire.
Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil so

close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or
damage to the range.

Lift-Up Cooktop

The entire cooktop may be lifted up and supported in
the up position for easier cleaning.

The surface units do not need to be removed;
however, you may remove one to make raising the
cooktop easier. There are two side supports that lock
into position when the cooktop is
lifted up.

NOTE: If your cooktop is equipped with shiny, silver­colored drip pans, do not clean them in the self­cleaning oven. Permanent damage to the finish can
occur.

If your cooktop is equipped with black or gray
porcelain-coated drip pans, they can be cleaned in
the oven during the self-cleaning cycle. Before you
begin a self-cleaning cycle, remove any heavy soil
from the drip pans and place them on the porcelain­coated oven racks. Do not place the drip pans
directly on the oven bottom. After the self-cleaning
cycle is completed and the drip pans are cool, wipe
them with a damp cloth to remove any remaining
ash or residue.

After cleaning under the cooktop with hot,
mild soapy water and a clean cloth, lower the
cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.

To lower the cooktop, push the rods back and gently
lower the cooktop until it rests in place.

To remove the cover:

Hold a hand under the cover so it doesn’t

fall when released. With fingers of the
same hand, firmly push back the wire
cover holder. Lift off the cover.

Do not remove any screws to remove the
cover.

Stainless Steel Handles (on some models)

The stainless steel handles (on some
models) can be cleaned with a commercially
available stainless steel cleaner. Cleaners
with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend
Soft Cleanser™ will remove rust, tarnish, and
small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser
free of grit and rub in the direction of the
brush lines with a damp soft sponge. Do not
use appliance wax or polish on the stainless
steel.

To replace the cover:

Place it into groove of the light receptacle.
Pull wire forward to the center of the cover
until it snaps into place.

Connect electrical power to the range.

For models JBS27DI and JBS27RI: Replace
oven lamp with 240 volts lamp only.

Do not wipe the handle with a soiled dish
cloth or wet towel. Do not use scouring
pads, powdered cleaners, bleach or cleaners
containing bleach because these products
can scratch and weaken the finish.

sugar mixtures such as
jelly or fudge and have
a spillover, it can cause
permanent damage to the
glass surface unless the
spillover is immediately
removed.

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic

Turn off all surface units. Remove hot

pans.

Wearing an oven mitt:

a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper

(CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop

area on the cooktop.

b. Remove the spill with paper towels.

NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass
surface has already occurred, the cooktop
glass will have to be replaced.
In this case, service will be necessary.

This should be removed immediately
before heating again or the
discoloration may be permanent.

Don’t use the surface units again until all

of the residue has been completely
removed.

Any remaining spillover should be left until

the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
