recommended in this guide can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element will be exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or potholder.
Cleaning Safety
Clean cooktop with caution. Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning. Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or oven service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small children.
Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended, especially when
using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size surface elements. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking efficiency.
GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE: NEVER cook on broken cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
Self-Clean Oven
CAUTION
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the oven racks, broiler pan, food and any other utensils. Wipe spillovers to prevent excessive smoke and flare-ups.
Do not clean door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
Do not use oven cleaners or oven liners of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven.
Important Safety Notice and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before attempting to move pan.
Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood or filter and to avoid grease fires.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Save These Instructions for Future Reference
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may be some low-level exposure to some of the listed sub­stances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by properly venting the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or door in the room where the appliance is located during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.

DUCTING INFORMATION
Jenn-Air’s ventilation system is designed to capture both cooking fumes and smoke from the cooktop surface. If the system does not, here are some ducting installation situations to check:
• 6” diameter round or 3 1/4” x 10” rectangular ducting should be used for duct lengths 10’-60’.
• There should be a minimum clearance of 6” for cooktop installed near a side wall.
If there is not an obvious improper installation, there may be a concealed problem such as a pinched joint, obstruction in the pipe, etc. Installation is the responsibility of the installer and questions should be addressed first by the installer. The installer should very carefully check the ducting installation instruc­tions.
• Use the Flow Tester Card provided with your appliance to check the air flow.

SURFACE COOKING
Surface Controls
Use to turn on the surface elements. An infinite choice of heat settings is available from Low to High. The knobs can be set on or between any of the settings.
Setting the Controls
1. Place pan on surface element.
2. Push in and turn the knob in either direction to the desired heat setting.
• The control panel is marked to identify which
element the knob controls. For example, the graphic at right indicates right front element.
3. There is an element indicator light on the control panel. When any surface control knob is turned on, the light will turn on. The light will turn off when all the surface elements are turned off.
When a control is turned on, a glow can be seen through the smoothtop surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting, even on High.
4. After cooking, turn knob to OFF. Remove pan.
Dual Element
The cooking surface is equipped with two dual elements located in the right front and left rear positions. To operate, push in on the control knob and turn to the right to control the small element, or push in and turn to the left to control the large element.
Custom Control (select models)
The Custom Control Dual Element offers two element sizes and is located in the right front position. This element uses an electronic sensor to constantly monitor and adjust heat output for precise and consistent temperature control.
Flex-ChoiceTM Elements (select models)
The Flex-ChoiceTM elements are fully functioning elements that provide an ultra low Melt heat setting for melting chocolate and butter. They are located in the left front and right rear positions.
The Melt setting is located between 3 and OFF. Heat settings outside of this area function as a normal element, with 3 (Low) to High settings.
Important: When using the normal settings for preparing foods, it may take a few minutes for the cooking area to cool to the Warm heat setting.
BEFORE COOKING
• Always place a pan on the surface unit before you turn it
on. To prevent damage to range, never operate surface unit without a pan in place.
NEVER use the cooktop as a storage area for food or
cookware.
DURING COOKING
• Be sure you know which knob controls which surface unit. Make sure you turned on the correct surface unit.
• Begin cooking on a higher heat setting then reduce to a lower setting to complete the operation. Never use a high heat setting for extended cooking.
NEVER allow a pan to boil dry. This could damage the pan and the appliance.
NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the surface units, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.
CAUTION
AFTER COOKING
• Make sure surface unit is turned off.
• Clean up messy spills as soon as possible.
OTHER TIPS
• If cabinet storage is provided directly above cooking surface, limit it to items that are infrequently used and can be safely stored in an area subjected to heat. Temperatures may be unsafe for items such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
NEVER leave any items, especially plastic items, on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items, melt or soften plastics, or increase pressure in closed containers, causing them to burst.
NEVER allow aluminum foil, meat probes or any other metal object, other than a pan on a surface element, to contact heating elements.
NEVER store heavy items above the cooktop that could fall and damage it.

Suggested Heat Settings
The size, type of cookware and cooking operation will affect the heat setting.
area is hot to the touch even after the control has been turned off. The red light will remain on until the surface has
cooled.
High (9): Use to bring
liquid to a boil. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
Med. High (7): Use to brown meat, heat oil for deep fat frying or sauteing. Maintain fast boil for large amounts of liquids.
Low (1): Use to keep foods warm and melt chocolate and butter.
Med. Low (3):
Use to con­tinue cooking covered foods or steam foods.
Medium (5): Use to maintain slow boil for large amounts of liquids and for most frying operations.
Smoothtop Surface
Notes:
Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few
times the cooktop is used. This is normal.
Smoothtop cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the element is turned off. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use the retained heat to complete cooking. When the hot surface light turns off, the cooking area will be cool enough to touch. Because of the way they retain heat, the smoothtop elements will not respond to changes in settings as quickly as coil elements.
• In the event of a potential boilover, remove the pan from the cooking surface.
Never attempt to lift the cooktop.
• The smoothtop surface may appear discolored when it is hot. This is normal and will disappear when the surface cools.
Hot Surface Indicator Lights
The Hot Surface indicator lights are located next to the elements. These lights indicate when the adjacent cooking
Cooking Areas
The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent patterns on the smoothtop surface. For most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.

Tips to Protect the Smoothtop Surface
Cleaning (see page 6 for more information)
Before first use, clean the cooktop.
• Clean your cooktop daily or after each use. This will keep your cooktop looking good and can prevent damage.
• If a spillover occurs while cooking, immediately clean the spill from the cooking area while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later. Using extreme care, wipe spill with a clean, dry towel.
Do not allow spills to remain on the cooking area or the cooktop trim for a long period of time.
Never use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads which will scratch the cooktop.
Never use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.
To Prevent Marks & Scratches
Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.
Never place a trivet or wok ring between the surface and pan. These items can mark or etch the top.
Do not slide aluminum pans across a hot surface. The pans may leave marks which need to be removed promptly. (See Cleaning, page 6.)
Cont.
12
• Make sure the surface and the pan bottom are clean before turning on to prevent scratches.
• To prevent scratching or damage to the glass-ceramic top, do not leave sugar, salt or fats on the cooking area. Wipe the cooktop surface with a clean cloth or paper towel before using.
Never slide heavy metal pans across the surface since these may scratch.
To Prevent Stains
• Never use a soiled dish cloth or sponge to clean the
cooktop surface. A film will remain which may cause stains on the cooking surface after the area is heated.
• Continuously cooking on a soiled surface may/will result in a permanent stain.
To Prevent Other Damage
Do not allow plastic, sugar or foods with high sugar content to melt onto the hot cooktop. Should this happen, clean immediately. (See Cleaning, page 6.)
Never let a pan boil dry as this will damage the surface and pan.
Never use cooktop as a work surface or cutting board.
Never cook food directly on the surface.
Do not use a small pan on a large element. Not only does this waste energy, but it can also result in spillovers burning onto the cooking area which requires extra cleaning.
Do not use non-flat specialty items that are oversized or uneven such as round-bottom woks, rippled bottom and/or oversized canners and griddles.
Do not use foil or foil-type containers. Foil may melt onto the glass. If metal melts on the cooktop, do not use. Call an authorized servicer.
The Bubble Test:
1. Put 1 inch of water in the pan. Place on cooktop and turn
control to High.
2. Watch the formation of the bubbles as the water heats. Uniform bubbles mean good performance, and uneven bubbles indicate hot spots and uneven cooking.
Select Avoid
Flat, smooth-bottom Pans with grooved or warped bottoms. pans. Pans with uneven bottoms do not cook
efficiently and sometimes may not
boil liquid. Heavy-gauge pans. Very thin-gauge metal or glass pans. Pans that are the Pans smaller or larger than the
same size as the element by 1 inch. element.
Secure handles. Cookware with loose or broken handles.
Heavy handles that tilt the pan. Tight-fitting lids. Loose-fitting lids. Flat-bottom woks. Woks with a ring-stand bottom.
Wok Cooking
Use Jenn-Air’s flat bottom wok (Model AO142) for optimum results. Call 1-800-JENNAIR (1-800-536-6247) to order. The wok has a non-stick finish, wood handles, cover, steaming rack, rice paddles, cooking tips and recipes.
Cookware Recommendations
Using the right cookware can prevent many problems, such as food taking longer to cook or achieving inconsistent results. Proper pans will reduce cooking times, use less energy, and cook food more evenly.
Flat Pan Tests
To determine whether your pans are flat.
The Ruler Test:
1. Place a ruler across the bottom of the pan.
2. Hold it up to the light.
3. Little or no light should be visible under the ruler.

Ventilation System
The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors and smoke from foods prepared on your cooktop and grill.
• To operate the ventilation system manually, push the Vent Fan pad located on the electronic control. Push once for Low, push again for High and a third time to turn the fan Off.
• The ventilation system will operate automatically when the grill element is in use.
• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen, as when chopping onions near the fan.
Care and Cleaning of the Ventilation System
Air Grille: The air grille lifts off easily. Wipe clean or wash in
dishwasher or sink with mild household detergents. To prevent scratching the surface, do not use abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads.
Filter: Turn off ventilation system before removing. The filter
is a permanent type and should be cleaned when soiled. Clean in sink with warm water and detergent or in dishwasher.
AIR FILTER
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE SYSTEM WITHOUT FILTER. Filter should always be placed at an angle. As you
face the front of the range, the top of the filter should rest against the left side of the vent opening. The bottom should rest against the right side of the vent chamber at the bottom. Important: If filter is flat against the fan wall,
ventilation effectiveness is reduced.
Ventilation Chamber: This area, which houses the filter,
should be cleaned in the event of spills or whenever it becomes coated with a film of grease. It can be cleaned with paper towel, damp cloth, or sponge and mild household detergent or cleanser.
Important: The oven vent is located under the right side of the air grille. When using or cleaning the oven, hot and moist air may be noticed in this area. The area near the vent may become hot enough to cause burns. Be careful not to spill anything into this vent. The air grille must be
removed before the self-clean cycle.

Drying
For best results, use a drying rack. A drying rack allows air to circulate evenly around the food.
The convection fan will operate during the drying procedure.
To set Drying:
1. The oven door needs to be opened slightly to allow mois­ture to escape from the oven during the drying process.
• Open the oven door slightly.
• Place the magnetic door spacer
(Part No. 8010P146-60) over the plunger switch at the upper right side of the oven frame. The spacer provides a gap between the oven frame and the oven door to allow moisture to escape.
• Gently close the door until the spacer magnet makes contact with the oven door. The magnet will hold the spacer in the proper position during the drying process and allows the door to be opened at any time during drying without losing proper positioning.
Important: If the spacer is not placed correctly, the convection fan will not operate.
2. Press Convect pad.
3. Press the arrow to scroll.
4. Select DRYING.
5. Select a displayed temperature or enter a temperature with the number pads. Temperatures can be set between 100° F and 200° F.
6. DRYING and the temperature will be displayed. PREHEAT will be displayed until the programmed temperature is reached.
7. When drying is complete, remove food from oven and press CANCEL pad.
Follow the Drying Guide on page 25 for drying times. Check foods at minimum times given. Cool foods to room temperature before testing for doneness.
Notes:
• To purchase a drying rack, contact your Jenn-Air dealer for the “DRYINGRACK” Accessory Kit or call 1-800-JENNAIR (1-800-536-6247).
• Most fruits and vegetables dry well and retain their color when dried at 140° F. Meat and jerky should be dried at 145° - 150° F. For optimal flavor, dry herbs at 100° F, however, at this lower temperature expect extended drying times of up to 8 hours.
The length of drying times vary due to the following:
Water and sugar content of food, size of food pieces, amount of food being dried, humidity in the air.
• Check foods at the minimum drying time. Dry longer if necessary.
• Fruits that turn brown when exposed to air should be treated with an antioxidant. Try one of the following methods:
1. Dip fruit in a mixture of two parts bottled lemon juice
to one part cool water.
2. Soak fruit in a solution of 1 tsp. ascorbic acid or
commercial antioxidant to 1 quart of cold water.
• Foods may drip during the drying process. After drying high acid or sugary foods, clean the oven bottom with soap and water. The porcelain oven finish may discolor if acidic or sugary food soils are not wiped up prior to high heat or a self-cleaning cycle.
