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.

If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element will be exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or potholder.

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.

GLASS-CERAMIC COOKTOP

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 cooktop with caution. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. If a wet sponge, cloth, or paper towel is used on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn.

DEEP FAT FRYERS

Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool before attempting to

OVEN

Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.

For proper oven operation and performance, do not block or obstruct oven vent duct. When oven is in use, the vent and surrounding area become hot enough to cause burns.

Always place oven racks in desired locations while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact hot element in oven.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN

Clean only parts listed in this guide. Do not clean door gasket. The gasket is essential for a good seal. Do not rub, damage, or move the gasket.

Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, CONT.

Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils to prevent excessive smoking, discoloration of the oven racks or possible damage to utensils.

Wipe up excessive spillovers, especially greasy spills, before the clean cycle to prevent smoking, flare-ups or flaming.

It is normal for the cooktop to become hot during a clean cycle. Therefore, avoid touching the cooktop, door, window or oven vent during a 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.

HEATING ELEMENTS

NEVER touch surface or 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 surface 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.

Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent, and surfaces near the vent opening, oven door, areas around the door and oven window.

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 in area where appliance 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.

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.

Turn the fan on when flambéing foods (such as Cherries Jubilee) under the hood.

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 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.

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.

Remove pan.

CAUTION

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.

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.

SURFACE COOKING, CONT.

GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE

NOTES:

• On Canadian models, some or all of the surface will not operate during a self-clean cycle.

• Cooktop may emit light smoke and odor the first few times the cooktop is used. This is normal.

• When a control is turned on, a red glow can be seen through the glass-ceramic surface. The element will cycle on and off to maintain the preset heat setting.

• Glass-ceramic cooktops retain heat for a period of time after the unit is turned off. When the HOT SURFACE light turns off (see below), the cooking area will be cool enough to touch.

• NOTE: Do not attempt to lift the cooktop.

COOKING AREAS

The cooking areas on your range are identified by permanent patterns on the glassceramic surface. For most efficient cooking, fit the pan size to the element size.

Pans should not extend more than inch beyond the cooking area.

For more information on cookware, refer to “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.

/2 to 1-

HOT SURFACE LIGHTS

Each element has a HOT SURFACE indicator light. A light will be illuminated when the matching cooking area is hot. It will remain on, even after the control is turned off, until the area has cooled. They are located adjacent to each element.

LIGHTS ON COOKTOP

TIPS TO PROTECT THE GLASS-CERAMIC SUR-

FACE

• Before first use, clean the cooktop. (See Cleaning, page 15.)

• Do not use glass pans. They may scratch the surface.

• 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 15.)

• 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.

• 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 15.)

• 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 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.

• 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 slide heavy metal pans across the surface since these may scratch.

• 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 Jenn-Air Servicer.

• 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.

• Do not use abrasive cleansing powders or scouring pads which will scratch the cooktop.

• Do not use chlorine bleach, ammonia or other cleansers not specifically recommended for use on glass-ceramic.

• To retain the appearance of the glassceramic cooktop, clean after each use.

NOTES:

• Glass ceramic surfaces retain heat. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food is completely cooked and use the retained heat to complete the cooking.

Because of the heat retention characteristics, the 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 area.

COOKWARE

To achieve optimum cooking performance, use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth bottom pans that conform to the diameter of the cooking area. ( See “Cooking Made Simple” for cookware characteristics and recommendations.)

1. Press the Drying pad.

2. Press the Auto Set pad for 140° F or

press the appropriate number pads for the desired drying temperature between 100° and 200° F.

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.

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.

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

Follow the drying guide on page 11 for drying times. Cool foods to room temperature before testing for doneness.

• 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.

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.
