Congretulations on your choice ofa Jenn-Air range. The indoor grillingof meats, fish or fowl isoneof the mostattractiveand succulent methodsof

preparingthese foods. YourJenn-Airself-cleaningovencombinesthebestoftwocookingmethods,

convectionand conventional baking or roasting.

The Jenn-Airconvectionovenis actuallya conventionaloventhatcirculates

heatedairwithinthe oven. As bothbakeand broilheatingelementscycleon

andoffwiththethermostat,afan keepsthe heatedaircirculatingaroundthe food. The constantlyrecimulatingheated air in the convectionoven strips away the layerof coolerair that surroundsthe food. Consequently,many foods cook more quickly. Evenly distributed heat makes multiple rack cookingpossible. Convectionroasted meats retaintheir naturalflavor and juicinesswith lessshrinkagethanconventionalroasting.

Read before operating your range

All appliances - regardless of the manufacturer - have the potential through improper or careless use to create safety problems. Therefore the following safety precautions should be observed:

1. Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a

qualified technician.

2, Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. This

warning is based on safety considerations.

3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where

appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

4. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance.

5. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi- cally recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be

referred to an authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor.

6. Do not store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable

vapors and liquid near range. This also applies to aerosol sprays and aerosol spray cans.

7. Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry

chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

8. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot

surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not use a towel or

other bulky cloth.

9. Select cookware large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers or spiilovers. This will save on cleaning and prevent

hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy splattering or

spillovers left on a cooktop can ignite. Pan size is especially

important in deep fat frying.

10. Never leave cooktop unattended at Hi heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

11. TYPE OF COOKWARE - Avoid pans that are unstable and easily tipped. Inchoosing pans, lookfor easUy-grasped handles that will

stay cool. Pans that are too heavy when filled with food can also

be a hazard. If pan handles twistand cannot be tightened, discard the pan.

12. HANDLES - Always turn pan handles to the side or back of the

cooktop - not out into the room where they are easily hit. COOK- WARE HANDLES SHOULD BE TURNED INWARD AND NOT

EXTEND OVER ADJACENT SURFACE BURNERS to minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to uninten-

tional contact with the cookware.

13. CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above range-children climbing on the range to reach items could

be seriously injured.

14. Do not touch gdll and surface burner areas or perimeter trim around cooktop or interior surfaces of oven. During and after use,

these areas may be hot enough to cause burns. Avoid contact with these areas by clothing or other flammable materials until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces may become hot enough to cause burns - among these surfaces are the upper door

frame and door, oven vent opening and surfaces near the opening, and the top edge of the control panel.

15. Keep all controls "OFF" when unit is not in use.

16. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven is vented under the air grille.

17. GREASE - Grease is flammable and should be handled carefully. Never leave any cooking operation unattended. Let fat cool before

attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease to collect around the cooktop or in the vents. Wipe up spillovers immediately.

18. Ifthe range is installed near a window, proper precautions should

be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners creating a FIRE HAZARD.

19. Do not use aluminum foil to line aeration tray or burner basin. Restriction of normal air flow may result in unsafe operation.

20. Do not use cookware on the gdll section of this appliance.

21. Before servicing your appliance, disconnect power to the range at

the main fuse or circuit breaker panel and at the electrical recep- tacle.

22. Always allow hot pans to cool in a safe place out of the reach of small children.

23. A faint gas odor may indicate a gas leak. If a gas odor is detected, shut off the gas supply to the range. Call your installer or local gas company to have the possible leak checked. Never use a match or other flame to locate a gas leak,

24. Glazed cookware - only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,earthenware,or otherglazed cookwareare suitable for

cooktopsurfacewithoutbreakingdue to the suddenchange in

temperature. Use only suchcookwareas you knowhas been approvedfor this purpose.

25. Avoid placingthe range in a main "trafficpath"or in an isolated locationwithnocounterspacenearby. Visualizethe ovenin use

beforeselectinga location. Rememberthatopenovendoorsmay blocka passagewayandcreatea hazard.

26. Use carewhen openingovendoor. Let hotair or steam escape beforeremovingor replacingfood.

30. Do not useovencleaners. No commercialovencleaneroroven linerprotectivecoatingof anykindshouldbe usedJnoraroundany

31. Clean onlypartslistedinthismanualanduseproceduresrecom- mended.

32. CAUTION: BEFORE SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN, REMOVE FOOD,BROILER PANAND OTHER UTENSILS.

33. Listenfor fan. A fan noiseshouldbe heard dudngthe broil and cleaningcycles. If not, call a servicemanbefore self-cleaning again.

34. Alwaysremovesoiled broilerpan from the broilercompartment aftercookingforgrease left inthe panmay become hotenough

to ignite.

35. Do not use ovenfor storagespace.

36. Do notallowaluminumfoilto contactheatingelement.

37. WARNING: To reduce the risk of tipping the appliance, the appliancemustbe securedby properlyinstalledanti-tipdevices.

To check if devices are installedproperly,remove the access panel and verify thatthe anti-tip devices are engaged.

38. PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's in-

structions. If a plastic frozenfood container and/or its film cover distorts, warps or isotherwise damaged during cooking, immedi- ately discard the food and its container. The food could be

contaminated.

39. This appliancehas been testedfor safe performance usingcon- ventional cookware. Donot use any devices or accessoriesthat are notspecificallyrecommended inthis manual Donotuse eyelid coversfor the surface units,stovetop grills,or add-on convection systems.
