GENERAL

INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:

• ALL RANGES CAN TIP AND CAUSE INJURIES TO PERSONS

• INSTALL ANTITIP DEVICE PACKED WITH RANGE

•FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce risk of tipping of the appliance from abnormal usage or by excessive loading of the oven door, the appliance must be secured by a properlyinstalledanti-tipdevice.

To check if device is properly installed, remove storage drawer and look underneath range 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

APPLIANCE

WARNING

NEVER use appliance door, or drawer, if equipped, as a step stool or seat as this may result in possible tipping of the appliance, damage to the appliance, and serious injuries.

NEVER use appliance as a space heater to heat or warm a room to prevent potential hazard to the user and damage to the appliance. Also, do not use the cooktop or oven as a storage area for food or cooking utensils.

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air by blocking the oven vent or air intakes. Restriction of air flow to the burner prevents proper performance and increases carbon monoxide emission to unsafe levels.

Avoid touching oven vent area while oven is on and for several minutes after oven is turned off. Some parts of the vent and surrounding area become hot enough to cause burns. After oven is turned off, do not touch the oven vent or surrounding areas until they have had sufficient time to cool.

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

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 setting or when deep fat 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 the container to burst resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the appliance.

Use dry, sturdy potholders. Damp potholders may cause burns from steam. Dishtowels orothersubstitutesshouldnever 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 appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood frequently to prevent grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When flaming foods under the hood turn the fan on.

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.

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.

NEVER use aluminum foil 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.

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 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.

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.

Clean appliance with caution. 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.

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 broiler pan, oven racks and other utensils and wipe up excessive spillovers to prevent excessivesmoke,flare-upsorflaming.CAU- TION: Do not leave food or cooking utensils, etc. in the oven during the selfclean 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.

3

It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become hot during a self-clean cycle. Therefore, touching the cooktop during a clean cycle should be avoided.

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.

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.

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.

SETTING THE CONTROLS

Your cooktop has sealed gas burners with automatic re-ignition. If the burner flame should go out, the system will automatically spark to re-ignite the burner.

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 desired setting.

•A clicking (spark) sound will be heard and the burner will light. (All four ignitors will spark when any surface burner knob is turned on. However, only the selected burner will light.)

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 desired setting.

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.

•Do not leave the cooktop unattended when cooking during a power failure. The automatic re-ignition feature will not operate during a power failure.

PILOTLESS IGNITION

Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will not operate during a power failure.

A lighted match will not light the oven burner. No attempt should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.

SURFACE CONTROL KNOBS

Use to turn on the surface burners. An

infinite choice of heat settings is available

from lo to hi. At the

hi setting a detent or

notch may be felt. The 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.

SUGGESTED HEAT SETTINGS

The size and type of cookware will affect the heat setting. For information on cookware and other factors affecting heat settings, refer to “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.

Settings	Uses
hi	Use hi to bring liquid to a boil, or reach pressure in a
	pressure cooker. Always reduce setting to a lower heat when
	liquids begin to boil or foods begin to cook.
	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.
lo
	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.

COOKTOP

To prevent the cooktop from discoloring or staining:

•Clean cooktop after each use.

•Wipe acidic or sugary spills as soon as the cooktop has cooled as these spills may discolor the porcelain.

Unlike a range with stan- dard gas burners, this cooktop does not lift- up nor is it removable.

Do not attempt to lift the cooktop for any

reason.

SIMMER BURNER

This burner is located in the left front position. The simmer burner offers a lower BTU flame for delicate sauces or melting chocolate.

* BTU ratings will vary when using LP gas.

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 absorb the heat from the burner flame.

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

SEALED BURNERS

The sealed burners of your range are secured to the cooktop and are not designed to be removed. Since the burners are sealed into the cooktop, boilovers or spills will not seep underneath the cooktop.

However, the burner heads should be cleaned after each use. The head portion of the burner is easily removed for cleaning. (See page 16 for cleaning directions.)

HIGH PERFORMANCE

BURNER (12,000 BTU*)

There is one high speed burner on your range, located in the right front position. This burner offers higher speed cooking that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large-quantity cooking.

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.

•The flame should be adjusted so it does not extend beyond the edge of the pan.

DRYING PAD

(SELECT MODELS)

For drying fruits, vegetables, herbs, etc. Use a drying rack for best results. It allows air to circulate evenly around the foods.

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.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE

FOR MOST CONCERNS, TRY

THESE FIRST:

•Check if oven controls have been properly set.

•Check to be sure plug is securely inserted into receptacle.

•Check or re-set circuit breaker. Check or replace fuse.

•Check power supply.

•Aluminum foil was incorrectly used. Never line the broiler insert with foil.

•Trim excess fat from meat before broiling.

•A soiled broiler pan was used.

OVEN WILL NOT SELF-CLEAN.

•Check to make sure the cycle is not set for a delayed start. See pg. 15.

•Check if door is closed.

PART OR ALL OF APPLIANCE DOES

NOT WORK.

•Check if surface and/or oven controls have been properly set. See pgs. 5 & 7.

•Check if oven door is unlocked after selfclean cycle. See pg. 15.

•Check if oven is set for a delayed cook or clean program. See pgs. 9 & 15.

•Check if Control Lock is activated. See pg. 13.

BAKING RESULTS ARE NOT AS EXPECTED OR DIFFER FROM PREVIOUS OVEN.

•Make sure the oven vent has not been blocked. See pg. 15 for location.

•Check to make sure range is level.

•Temperatures often vary between a new oven and an old one. As ovens age, the oven temperature often “drifts” and may become hotter or cooler. See pg. 13 for instructions on adjusting the oven temperature. NOTE: It is not recommended to adjust the temperature if only one or two recipes are in question.

•Check that oven temperature is decreased by 25° F when convect baking.

•See “Cooking Made Simple” booklet for more information on bakeware and baking.

•Make sure oven is preheated when recipe or directions recommend preheat.

•Check rack positions. See page 14.

FOOD IS NOT BROILING PRO-

PERLY OR SMOKES EXCESSIVELY.

OVEN DID NOT CLEAN PROPERLY.

•Longer cleaning time may be needed.

•Excessive spillovers, especially sugary and/ or acidic foods, were not removed prior to the self-clean cycle.

OVEN DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK

AFTER SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.

•Oven interior is still hot. Allow about one hour for the oven to cool after the completion of a self-clean cycle. The door can be opened when the LOC indicator word is not displayed.

MOISTURE COLLECTS ON OVEN WINDOW OR STEAM COMES FROM OVEN VENT.

•This is normal when cooking foods high in moisture.

•Excessive moisture was used when cleaning the window.

SURFACE BURNER FAILS TO

LIGHT.

•Check to be sure burner ports or ignition ports are not clogged. See page 16.

•Check to be sure ignitor is dry and clicking. Burner will not light if ignitor is damaged, soiled or wet. If ignitor doesn’t click, turn control knob OFF.

SURFACE BURNER FLAME LIFTS

OFF PORTS.

•Check to be sure a pan is sitting on the grate above.

•Contact an authorized Jenn-Air servicer.

THE FLAME IS UNEVEN.

• Burner ports may be clogged.

SURFACE BURNER FLAME IS

YELLOW IN COLOR.

•Contact an authorized Jenn-Air servicer.

•Some yellow tips on the flame are acceptable when using LP gas.

THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OR

LIGHT SMOKE WHEN OVEN IS TURNED ON.

•This is normal for a new range and will disappear after a few uses. Initiating a clean cycle will “burn off” the odors more quickly.

•Turning on a ventilation fan will help remove the smoke and/or odor.

•Excessive food soils on the oven bottom. Use a self-clean cycle.

A FAN SOUND CAN BE HEARD

•This is the cooling fan and is normal. The fan will continue to run after use until the oven cools.

“F” PLUS A NUMBER AND THE MESSAGE: “CALL AN AUTHO- RIZED SERVICER OR 800-688- 1100.”

•This is called a fault code. If a fault code appears in the display and beeps sound, press the Cancel pad. If the fault code and beeps continue, disconnect power to the appliance. Wait a few minutes, then reconnect power. If fault code and beeps still continue, disconnect power to the appliance and call an authorized servicer.

•If the oven is heavily soiled, excessive flare-ups may result in a fault code during a clean cycle. Press Cancel pad and allow the oven to cool completely, wipe out excess soil, then reset the clean cycle. If the fault code and beeps still continue, disconnect power to the appliance and call an authorized servicer.

• Check oven rack positions. Food may be

too close to flame.
