•FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce risk of tipping of the appliance from abnormal usage or by excessive loading of the oven door, the appliance must besecuredbyaproperlyinstalled anti-tip device.

To check if device is properly installed, look underneath range with a flashlight to make sure one of the rear leveling legs is properly engaged in the bracket slot. The anti-tip device secures the rear leveling leg to the floor when properly engaged. You should check this anytime the range has been moved.

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SMOKE DAMAGE

Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating it.

Keep area around appliance clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and materials.

If appliance is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners.

NEVER leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable items and may increase pressure in

closed containers which may cause them to burst.

Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.

Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the appliance that may become warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a lighted surface burner.

To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface burners, cabinet storage should not be provided directly above a unit. If storage is provided, it should be limited to items which are used infrequently and which are safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an appliance. Temperatures may be unsafe for some items, such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

IN CASE OF FIRE

Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame then turn on hood to remove smoke and odor.

•Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or cookie sheet.

NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.

•Oven: Smother fire or flame by closing the oven door.

Do not use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher to smother fire or flame.

CHILD SAFETY

CAUTION

NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets above an appliance or on backguard of a range. Children climbing on the appliance door to reach items could be seriously injured.

NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.

NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.

Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small children. Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other parts of the unit.

ABOUT YOUR

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, CONT.

Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp cloth as the bulb could break. Should the bulb break, disconnect power to the appliance before removing bulb to avoid electrical shock.

COOKING SAFETY

Always place a pan on a surface burner before turning it on. Be sure you know which knob controls which surface burner. Make sure the correct burner is turned on and that the burner has ignited. When cooking is completed, turn burner off before removing pan to prevent exposure to burner flame.

Always adjust surface burner flame so that it does not extend beyond the bottom edge of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous, wastes energy and may damage the appliance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.

NEVER leave a surface cooking operation unattended especially when using a high heat settingorwhen deepfat frying.Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as possible. Do not use high heat for extended cooking operations.

NEVER heat an unopened container on the surface burner or in the oven. Pressure build-up may cause container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.

Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause burns from steam. Dishtowelsorothersubstitutesshouldnever be used as potholders because they can trail across hot surface burners and ignite or get caught on appliance parts.

Always let quantities of hot fat used for deep fat frying cool before attempting to move or handle.

Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the rangetop or in the vents. Clean frequently to prevent grease from accumulating.

NEVER wear garments made of flammable material or loose fitting or long-sleeved

apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite or catch utensil handles.

Always place oven racks in the desired positions while oven is cool. Slide oven rack out to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy potholders. Always avoid reaching into the oven to add or remove food. If a rack must be moved while hot, use a dry potholder. Always turn the oven off at the end of cooking.

Use care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before moving or replacing food.

NEVER use aluminum foil inside the grill area, to cover oven racks or oven bottom. This could result in risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only as directed in this guide.

PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer’s instructions. If a plastic frozen food container and/or its cover distorts, warps, or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The food could be contaminated.

where they are easily hit or reached by small children.

Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and the appliance.

Follow the manufacturer’s directions when using oven cooking bags.

Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or oven usage without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.

This appliance has been tested for safe performance using conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accessories that are not specifically recommended in this guide. Do not use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add-on oven convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that are not expressly recommended in this manual can create serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.

UTENSIL SAFETY

Use pans with flat bottoms and handles that are easily grasped and stay cool. Avoid using unstable, warped, easily tipped or loosehandled pans. Also avoid using pans, especially small pans, with heavy handles as they could be unstable and easily tip. Pans that are heavy to move when filled with food may also be hazardous.

Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.

To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, do not extend handles over adjacent surface burners. Always turn pan handles toward the side or back of the appliance, not out into the room

HEATING ELEMENTS

NEVER touch oven heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven.

Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near elements and interior surfaces of an oven may become hot enough to cause burns.

During and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials contact heating elements, areas near elements, or interior surfaces of oven until they have had sufficient time to cool.

CLEANING SAFETY

Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts to cool before touching or cleaning them. Do not touch the burner grates or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.

plied to a hot surface.

SELF-CLEAN OVEN

Clean only parts listed in this guide. 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 of any kind in or around any part of the self-clean oven.

Before self-cleaning the oven, remove air grille, broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils and wipe up excessive spillovers to prevent excessive smoke, flare-ups or flaming. CAUTION: Do not leave food or cooking utensils, etc. in the oven during the self-clean cycle.

Slide-in ranges feature a cooling fan which operates automatically during a clean cycle. If the fan does not turn on, cancel the clean operation and contact an authorized servicer.

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.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the burning of gas can result in lowlevel exposure to some of the listed substances, including benzene, formaldehyde and soot, due primarily to the incomplete combustion of natural gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burners

will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can also be minimized by properly venting the burners to the outdoors.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the oven is engaged in the selfclean 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 during the self-clean cycle by opening a window and/or door in the room where the appliance is located.

IMPORTANTNOTICEREGARDING 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

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, these 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'. Note: 5" diameter round ducting may be used if the duct length is 10' or less.

•No more than three 90° elbows should be used. Distance between elbows should

be at least two and one half times the diameter of the duct.

•Recommended Jenn-Air wall cap MUST be used. Make sure damper moves freely when ventilation system is operating.

•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 in- stallation instructions.

• Use the Flow Tester Card provided with your appliance to check the air flow.

SURFACE COOKING

SURFACE CONTROLS

CAUTION

•If flame should go out during a cooking operation, turn the burner off. If a strong gas odor is detected, open a window and wait five minutes before relighting the burner.

•Be sure all surface controls are set in the OFF position prior to supplying gas to the range.

•NEVER touch cooktop until it has cooled. Expect some parts of the cooktop, especially around the burners, to become warm or hot during cooking. Use potholders to protect hands.

PILOTLESS IGNITION

Pilotless ignition eliminates the need for a constant standing pilot light. Each surface burner has a spark ignitor. When cleaning around the surface burner use care. If cleaning cloth should catch the ignitor, it could damage it preventing ignition.

knobs can be set on or between any of the settings.

Graphics next to the knob identify which burner the knob controls. For

example, the graphic at right shows the right front burner location.

SETTING THE

CONTROLS

1.Place a pan on the burner grate. (To preserve the grate finish, do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate to absorb the heat from the burner flame.)

2.Push in knob and turn immediately counterclockwise to the lite setting until burner ignites.

•A clicking (spark) sound will be heard and the burner will light. (All ignitors will spark when any surface burner knob is turned to the lite position.)

3.After ignition, turn knob clockwise to desired setting.

•The ignitor will continue to spark until the knob is turned past the lite position.

OPERATING DURING A

POWER FAILURE

1.Hold a lighted match to the desired surface burner head.

2.Push in and turn the control knob slowly to lite.

3.Adjust the flame to the desired level.

CAUTION

•When lighting the surface burners, be sure all of the controls are in the OFF position. Strike the match first and hold it in position before turning the knob to lite.

SUGGESTED HEAT SETTINGS

If the surface burner does not light, check if ignitor is broken, soiled or wet. If clogged, clean the small port beneath the ignitor using straight pin.

An intermediate flame size is used to continue cooking. Food will not cook any faster when a higher flame setting is used than needed to maintain a gentle boil. Water boils at the same temperature whether boiling gently or vigorously.

Use lo to simmer foods, keep foods warm and melt chocolate or butter.

Some cooking may take place on the lo setting if the pan is covered. It is possible to reduce the heat by rotating the knob toward OFF. Be sure flame is stable.

5

COOKTOP

To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:

•Clean cooktop after each use.

•Wipe acid or sugar spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled.

SEALED BURNERS

The sealed burners on your range are secured to the cooktop cartridge and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cartridge, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop. However, the burner heads should be cleaned after each use.

BURNER GRATES

The grates must be properly positioned before cooking. Improper installation of the grates may result in chipping of the cooktop.

Do not operate the burners without a pan on the grate. The grate’s porcelain finish may chip without a pan to absorbtheheatfromtheburnerflame.

Although the burner grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine and/or discolor, due to the high temperatures of the gas flame.

NOTES:

•A properly adjusted burner with clean ports will light within a few seconds. If using natural gas, the flame will be blue with a deeper blue inner cone.

If the burner flame is yellow or is noisy, the air/gas mixture may be incorrect. Contact a service technician to adjust. (Adjustments are not covered by the warranty.)

With LP gas, some yellow tips on the flames are acceptable. This is normal and adjustment is not necessary.

•With some types of gas, you may hear a “popping” sound when the surface burner is turned off. This is a normal operating sound of the burner.

•If the control knob is turned very quickly from hi to lo, the flame may go out, particularly if the burner is cold. If this occurs, turn the knob to the OFF position, wait several seconds and relight the burner.

•To improve cooking efficiency and to prevent possible damage to the range or pan, the flame must be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

SEALED BURNER

CARTRIDGE

TO INSTALL SEALED BURNER CARTRIDGE:

1. Be sure control knobs are turned OFF.

GRILL INSTALLATION

The grill assembly consists of two grill grates and a grill burner. Only install the grill on the LEFT SIDE of your range.

2.If the grill burner and grill grates are in place, remove before installing a burner cartridge. Clean basin of any grease accumulation. (See page 20 for cleaning recommendations.)

3.Position the burner cartridge with the mixer tube openings and ignitor rods toward the orifices and terminal receptacle. Slide the cartridge until the tubes and ignitors engage, then lower the cartridge so that it rests on the range surface.

TO REMOVE SEALED BURNER CARTRIDGE:

1.Control knobs should be in the OFF position and the range should be cool.

2.Lift up the edge of the cartridge until the bottom of the cartridge clears the basin. (Lifting the cartridge too high while still engaged could damage the ignitor rods and mixer tubes.)

3.To disengage the cartridge, hold by the sides and pull away from the terminal receptacle and orifices. Lift out when fully unplugged.

4.Do not stack cartridges where they may fall or be damaged.

NOTE: Optional Sealed Burner Cartridge, model JGA8100, can replace the grill burner assembly.

TO INSTALL GRILL:

1.Before installing grill components, be sure controls knobs are in the OFF position.

2.Position the grill burner with mixer tubes and ignitor rod toward the orifices and terminal receptacle. Slide the burner until the tubes and ignitor engage, then lower the burner until it rests in the burner basin.

3.Place the grill grates on top of the rangetop.

NOTE: Before using the grill for the first time, heat the grill burner to remove the protective shipping coating. Heat the grill burner on Hi for 10 minutes and use the vent system to remove any smoke.

TO REMOVE GRILL:

1.Be sure control knobs are in the OFF position and the grill components are cool.

2.Remove grill grates.

3.Lift the burner up slightly. Slide the burner away from the orifices and terminal receptacle.

USING THE GRILL

•Before the first use, wash grill grates in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. Then “season” the surface by wiping on a thin coating of cooking oil. Remove excess oil by wiping with paper towel.

Thisprocedureshouldberepeatedwhen either: a) cleaning in the dishwasher since the detergent may remove seasoning or b) anytime a sugar-based marinade (for example, barbecue sauce) is going to be used.

•Preheat the grill on Hi for 5 minutes. Preheating improves the flavor and appearance of meats and quickly sears the meat to help retain the juices.

•Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils to prevent damaging the nonstick grill grate finish.

•Excessive amounts of fat should be trimmed from meats. Only a normal amount is necessary to produce the smoke needed for that smoked, “outdoor” flavor. Excessive fat can create cleaning and flareup problems.

•Allowing excessive amounts of grease or drippings to constantly flare-up voids the warranty on the grill grates.

•Excessive flare-ups indicate that either the grill interior needs to be cleaned or that excessive amounts of fat are in the meat or the meat was not properly trimmed.

•Grease drippings will occasionally ignite to produce harmless puffs of flame for a second or two. This is a normal part of the cooking process. NOTE: For information on the grease cup, see pg. 20.

•NEVER LEAVE GRILL UNATTENDED DURING GRILL OPERATION.

7

•SHOULD EXCESS GREASE CAUSE SUSTAINED FLAREUPS:

1.Turn on the fan manually.

2.Immediately turn grill controls to

Off.

3.Remove meat from grill.

IMPORTANT

•Do not use aluminum foil inside the grill area.

•Do not use charcoal or wood chips in the grill area.

•Do not allow burner basin to become overloaded with grease. Clean frequently.

•Do not cover grates

completely with meat. Leave air space be- tween each steak, etc. to allow proper ventila- tion as well as prevent flare- ups.

GRILLING TIPS

•Be sure to follow directions for using the grill.

•Suggested cooking times and control settings (see Grill guide, pg. 9) are approximate due to variations in the foods.

•For best results, buy top grade meat. Meat that is at least 3/4 inch will grill better than thinner cuts.

•Score fat on edges of steak, but do not cut into meat, to prevent curling while cooking.

•For the attractive “branded” look on steaks, be sure grill is preheated. Allow one side of meat to cook to desired

doneness, or until juices appear on the top surface, before turning. Turn steaks and hamburgers just once. Manipulating food causes loss of juices.

•When basting meats or applying sauces to foods, remember that excessive amounts accumulate inside your grill and do not improve the food flavor.

Apply sauces during the last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking time unless recipe specifies otherwise. Plus, anytime a sugarbased marinade (for example barbecue sauce) is going to be used, the grates should be "seasoned" prior to preheating. (See Using the Grill section.)

•There are many meat marinades which will help tenderize less expensive cuts of meat for cooking on the grill.

•Certain foods, such as poultry and nonoily fish, may need some extra fat. Brush with oil or melted butter occasionally while grilling.

•Use tongs with long handles or spatulas for turning meats. Do not use forks as these pierce the meat, allowing juices to be lost.

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 sys-	Fan

	tem manually, push the vent
	fan switch located on the con-
	trol panel.
		Lo

•The ventilation system will operate automatically on Hi when the grill burner 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.

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. (Note: 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.

OVEN VENT: 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. When the oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area 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.

3.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 allowing 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.

NOTE: If the spacer is not placed correctly, the convection fan will not operate.

Follow the drying guide on page 16 for drying times. Cool foods to room temperature before testing for doneness.

4.When drying is complete, turn the oven off by pressing the Cancel pad. Using a potholder, remove the magnetic spacer.

NOTE:Please keep the magnetic spacer in a safe and convenient place for easy access. To replace, call 1-800-688-8408 to order Part No. 8010P146-60.

NOTE: If moisture collects around the oven vent area, remove the air grille during the drying operation.

NOTES:

DRYING

•To purchase a drying rack, contact your Jenn-Air dealer for the “DRYINGRACK” Accessory Kit or call 1-800-688-8408.

•Most fruits and vegetables dry well

and retain their color when dried at 140° 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.

•More than one rack of food may be dried at the same time. However, additional drying time is needed.

•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 acid or sugary food soils are not wiped up prior to high heat or a self-cleaning cycle.

•Refer to other resources at your local library or call your local County Extension service for additional information.
