[SAFETY PRACTICESAND PRECAUTIONS ]

When properly cared for, your new Jenn-Air Appliance has been designed to be a safe, reliable cooking appliance. When using this restaurant caliber appliance, use it with extreme care, as this type appliance provides intense heat and can increase the accident potential. Basic safety precautions

must be followed when using kitchen appliances, including the following:

[]

Read this User Guide thoroughly before using your new appliance. This will help to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

[]

Begin by insuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions which came with this appliance. Be sure to have a qualified technician install and ground this appliance before using.

[]

Have the installer show you where the gas supply shutoffvalve is located so you will know how and where to turn offthe gas to the appliance.

[]

If you smell gas, the installer has not clone a proper job of checking for leaks. You can have a small leak and therefore afaint gas smell if the connections are not completely tight. Finding a gas leak is not a "do-it-yourself"procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the ON position and for your protection it must be clone by a qualified service technician.

/_ WARNING:

Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL approved gas detector. Install and use in

accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

[] If by some chance a burner goes out and gas escapes, open a window or a door to let the room air

out. Do not attempt to use the appliance until the gas has had time to dissipate. Follow the instructions on page 1,"For your safety - if you smell gas'.'

[] This appliance has been factory assembled for natural gas. If using LP gas, the unit must be

converted by a qualified service technician using the hardware provided in the conversion kit packed with the unit. Refer to the instructions in the kit.

[] Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this

manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

[] Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where appliances are in use. They

should never be allowed to turn knobs, push buttons, sit or stand on any part of an appliance.

[] Children in walkers, or children crawling can be attracted to the round oven door handle and may

grab and open the oven door. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a child, or severe burns if the oven is in use and hot.

Z_ WARNING:

Do not store items of interest to children above or at the back of any appfiance.

Children could be seriously injured if they should climb onto the appfiance to reach these items.

[] Never store anything in the oven or on the cooktop. Flammable materials can catch fire, plastic

items may melt or ignite and other types of items could be ruined.

[] Do not hang articles from any part of the appliance or place anything against the oven. Some

fabrics are quite flammable and may catch on fire.

[] If the appliance is near a window be certain the curtains do not blow over or near the cooktop

burners; they could catch on fire.

[] Do not use water on grease fires. Turn all burners OFF,then smother fire with baking soda or use a

dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

[ SAFETY PRACTICEAND PRECAUTIONSJ

Never let clothing, pot holders, or other flammable materials come in contact with, or too close to, any burner or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.

Be certain to use only dry pot holders: moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders. Do not let pot holders touch hot burners, or burner grates.

For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the oven or cooktop. Using a foil liner could result in a fire hazard, or the obstruction of the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Foil is an excellent

heat insulator and heat will be trapped underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance and can damage the finish of the oven or the cooktop parts. Foil may also create a shock hazard if the heating element were to short out.

Z_ WARNING:

This appliance is for cooking. Based on safety considerations, never use the

oven or cooktop to warm or heat a room. Also, such use can damage the

cooktop or oven parts.

m When using the cooktop: Do not touch the burner grates or the immediate surrounding area. Areas

adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to cause burns.

! When using the oven: Do not touch the interior surfaces of the oven, the exterior area immediately

surrounding the door or the back trim. The surfaces directly ahove the oven door may be hot if the oven has been operated with the door open, or if something has prevented the door from sealing.

'_ Never leave the cooktop unattended when using high flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking

and greasy spill overs that may ignite. More importantly, if the burner flames are smothered by a severe boil over which effects the igniter, unburned gas will escape into the room.

'_ Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen ware, or other glazes utensils

are suitable for cooktop use. This type of utensil may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium flames settings according to the manufacturer's directions.

! Do not heat unopened food containers; a build up of pressure may cause the container to burst. '_ During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame heats only the bottom of the pan and does

not extend beyond the bottom of the pan. This could heat and/or melt the handles.

! Always use utensils that have flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner.The use of undersized

utensils will expose a portion of the flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.

! To minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and unintentional spill overs, position handles

of utensils inward so they do not extend over adjacent work areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the cooktop.

[] Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of the utensil when stirring or turning food. [] Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease

deposits collect around the cooktop burners. Clean after each use or boil over.

[] For proper lighting and performance of the cooktop burners, keep the burner ports clean. It may

be necessary to clean these when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light, even though the electronic igniters click.

[SAFETY PRACTICESAND PRECAUTIONS ]

Clean the cooktop with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the cooktop while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer.

Be sure all the range and/or cooktop controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

Place oven racks in desired position while the oven is cool. Ira rack must be moved while the oven

is hot, do not let the pot holders contact the hot interior of the oven.

Use care when opening the oven door; let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing foods.

m Do not rub, damage, move or remove the door gasket. It is essential for a good seal during baking. ! Clean the ventilator hood and filters above the range or cooktop frequently so grease from

cooking vapors does not accumulate on them.

! Turn the ventilator OFF in case of fire or when intentionally"flaming" liquor or other spirits on the

cooktop. The blower, if in operation, could unsafely spread the flames.

m DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air to the appliance. Be sure a fresh air

supply is available.

m For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the appliance never sit, stand, or lean on the oven door

or cooking surface.

m Service should only be done by authorized technicians.Technicians must disconnect the power

supply before servicing this appliance.

/_ WARNING:

Cafifornia Proposition 65 - The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products which are known by the 5tare of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the instructions con rained in this booklet and provide good ventilation to the room when cooking with gas.

BEFOREUSING YOUR APPLIANCE

! Do not use aluminum foil to cover the oven racks or to line the oven. Heat can be trapped

beneath the foil, this can cause damage to the oven and the food may not cook correctly.

3) Before baking or broiling: One at a time turn the oven and broiler burners for 20 to 30 minutes each. This burnsoffthe

manufacturing oils used by the factory. Turn the oven burner on to 450°F and the broiler burner

on to "Broil'[ Turn on the ventilator above your range while these burners are on, as there will be an odor.

TO INSERTTHE OVEN RACKS:

1) Hold the rack with the back safety rail in the up position and towards the rear of the oven. Slip it into the oven so the rack slides are between the rack and the rack guides.

2) As you slide the rack into the oven tip the front of the rack up slightly, so that the safety stops on the back of the rack, clear the rack slides. The safety stops keep the rack from sliding out of the oven when pulled forward.

TO REMOVE OR REPOSITION THE RACKS:

1) Pull the rack forward.

2) Lift the front of the rack up so the safety stops clear the rack slides.

3) Pull the rack forward.

COOl(TOP USE ]

BURNERS

Your new professional dual fuel range is equipped with

burners that are designed for maximum cleanability and

controlability. The burner should never be operated ifthe cap is not in place. All the cooktop burners have electronic spark ignition to eliminate continuously

burning pilots; when the burner is on and the flame is blown out, it will relight.

SIMMERING

Your new professional range is equipped with one

(PRD3030) or two (PRD3630) Dual Flow burners that have

exceptionally low simmering capabilities (fig. 3). Keep in

mind that because of the high heat capacity of the outer burner, and the mass of the cast iron burner grates (they retain heat longer than lighter, conventional grates) some

foods may continue to cook by retained heat after the

burner has been turned off. Should a strong draft or boil

over extinguish the simmer flame it will relight automat-

ically as the main burner would.

ELECTRONIC IGNITERS

If a burner does not ignite, listen for the clicking sound. If the igniter is not clicking, TURN OFF THE BURNER. Check the circuit

breaker for a blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. If the igniter still fails to operate, see page 32,"Before You Call For Service'[ To light the burner manually, see page 29,"Power Failure'[

NOTE: If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash

may occur at the bumer ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned "off': This "extinction

pop"is normal for propane gas.

BURNER EFFICIENCY AND FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for proper lighting and efficient

performance of the cooktop burners. The burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no excessive noise or lifting. On natural gas, the flame should be blue in color

and stable. Slight yellow tipping of the flames is normal with LP gas. During initial use, foreign

particles in the gas line, or dust in the air around the appliance may cause an orange flame.This will disappear with use.

COOKTOP USE

Proper Flame Height

FLAME HEIGHT

The correct height of the flame mainly depends Fig. 5

on the size of the bottom of the cooking utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the amount and type of food and the amount of liquid in the utensil. Following are some basic rules for selecting flame height.

! For safety reasons the flame must never extend beyond the bottom of the cooking utensil. Never

allow flames to curl up the side of the pan (see Fig.S).

'_ Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-ceramic) should be used with medium to low

flame. If you are cooking with a large amount of liquid, a slightly larger flame can be used.

SEALED TOP BURNERS

The sealed top burners must be kept clean. Cleaning of the sealed top burners should include the

igniter. The cooktop burners have an infinite number of heat settings and there are no fixed positions on the control knobs between HI and LO. To turn the cooktop burner on, push in on the control knob and turn it counterclockwise to the'LITE" position. An audible clicking sound will be heard. When the gas has been ignited by the electronic spark igniter, turn the knob to the desired setting. (The clicking sound should stop as soon as the burner is lit).
