Model SVE47600

Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air grill-range. The indoor grilling of meats, fish or fowl is one of the most attractive and succulent methods

of preparing these foods ... a unique flexibility made possible byJenn-Air's patented integral ventilation system.

Your Jenn-Air self-cleaning oven combinesthe best of fourcooking methods, conventional baking or roasting, convection baking, convection roasting and broiling. (Note: Only Model SVE47600 has the convection options.)

The Jenn-Air convection oven is actually a conventional oven that circulates

heated air within the oven. As both bake and broil heating elements cycle on

and off with the thermostat, afan keeps the heated air circulating around the food, The constantly recirculating heated air in the convection oven strips away the layer of cooler air that surrounds the food. Consequently, many foods cook more quickly. Evenly distributed heat makes multiple rack

cooking possible. Convection roasted meats retain their natural flavor and

juiciness with less shrinkage than conventional roasting.

In addition to the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking, your Jenn-

Air oven is also a fine full featured conventional bake and broil oven. You can

cook your "old favorite" recipes as you have in the past. The conventional

bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparing various foods when convection cooking may not be as beneficial, as when cooking foods in covered casseroles or clay pots. The broil element is convenient for top browning and oven broiling of foods.

Before you begin cooking with your new range, please take a few minutes to read and become familiar with the instructions in this book. On the following

pages you will find a wealth of information regarding all aspects of using your new range. By following the instructions carefully, you will be able to fully

enjoy and properly maintain your range and achieve excellent results with the

food you prepare.

Should you have any questions about using your Jenn-Air range or need a Use and Care manual for your cooktop cartridge, write to us. Be sure to

provide the model number.

Read before operating your range

All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the potential through improper or careless use to create safety problems. There- fore 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.

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 orhanging garments should

never be worn while using the appliance.

5. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless

specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to an authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor.

6, Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near

surface units.

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 bums from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky

cloth,

g, Use proper pan size, Many appliances are equipped with one

or more surface units of different size. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating

element. The use of undersized cookware wiltexpose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in

ignition of clothing, Proper relationship of cookware to heating element will also improve efficiency and performance,

10. Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boil

over causes smoking and greasy spitlovers that may ignite,

11. Glazed cookware -- only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed cookpots are suitable for

rangetop surface without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Use only such cookware as you know has been

approved for this purpose.

12.Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface heating elements to avoid bums, ignition

of flammable mate rials and spillage due to un intentional contact with the cookware.

13.CAUTION -- Do not store items of interest to children in

cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range -- children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously

injured.

14. Do not soak or immerse removable heating elements in water.

15. Do not touch surface units or areas near units, heating eJements

or intedor surfaces of oven. Surface units or heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near

surface units and intedor 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 these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces may

become hot enough to cause burns --among these surfaces are the cooktop, the upper door frame and glass, oven vent

opening and surfaces near the opening, and the top edge of the

control panel.

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

17.Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

18. Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. The oven vent is located underneath the air grille.

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

contact hot heating element in oven.

20.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.

21.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.

22.Clean only parts listed in this manual and use procedures recommended.

23. CAUTION: BEFORE SELF-CLEAN ING THE OVEN, REMOVE FOOD, BROILER PAN AND OTHER UTENSILS.

24. Listen for fan. A fan noise should be heard during the broil and cleaning cycles. If not, call a serviceman before self-cleaning again.

25. Do not cook on glass-ceramic cooking surface if the cooktop is

broken. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a shock hazard. Contact an

authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor.

26.Clean glass-ceramic cooktops with caution. If wet sponge or

cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious

fumes if applied to a hot surface.

27.Do not operate with damaged cooking element after any product malfunction until proper repair has been made.

28.Keep all switches "OFF' when unit is not in use.

29. Do not allow aluminum foil to contact heating elements.

30. On conventional element cartridges make sure that drip pans are in place. Absence of these pans during cooking may

subject wiring or components underneath to damage.

31. Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip pans, grill basin or oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result in electric

shock or fire hazard.

32.WARNING. To reduce the risk of tipping of the appliance, the appliance must be secured by properly installed anti-tip devices.

To check if devices are installed properly, remove the access

panel and verify that the anti-tip devices are engaged.

33.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 manual. Do not

use eyelid covers for the surface units, stovetop grills, or add- on 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.

34. PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow food manufacturer's instructions, if a plastic frozen food container and/or its film

cover distorts, warps or is otherwise damaged during cooking, immediately discard the food and its container. The food could

be contaminated.

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 repro- ductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential

exposures to such substances. Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when the range is engaged in the self-clean 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 range to the outdoors during the

Cooktopcartridges,either conventional coil, halogen, radiant or solid element, can be

installedon either side of the range. (See page 51 for all available cartridges and model numbers.)

To Install Cartridges

1. Jfthe grill element, grill-rocks or grates are in place, remove before instaJlinga cooktop cartridge. Clean porcelain basin pan of any grease accumulation. (See

page 17 for cleaning recommendations.)

2. To install any of the optional cooktop cartridges, be sure controls are turned OFF.

Positionthe cartridge terminal plugtowards the terminal receptacle. This receptacle

is located at the front of the left side and at the back of the rightside of the range.

3. Slide the cartridge towards the receptacle until the cartridge terminal plug is completely engaged.

4. Lower the opposite end of the cartridge into the rangetop until it is flush with the surface. Your range is now ready to use.

To Remove Cartridges

1. Controls must be OFF and the cartridge should be cool.

2. Lift up on the "tab" located on the cartridge until top of cartridge clears the opening

on the range by about 2 inches. Lifting the cartridge too high while stillengaged in the receptacle could damage the terminal plug.

3. To disengage terminal, hold cartridge by the sides and slide away from the terminal receptacle. Lift out when fully unpiugged.

4. A storage tray, Model A350, is available and can be used for storing a cartridge,

5. Do not stack cartridges where they may fall or be damaged. Never store other materials on top of the glass-ceramic cartridges since this could damage or scratch

the surface.

Canning should be done on the conventional coil cartridge only. Canning element accessory, Model A145A, makes it possible to use large canners with the conventional

coil cartridge.

• Select heavy gauge cookpots. Usuallyheavy gauge cookpotswillnotchange

shapewhen heated.

• Use cookpots with flat, smooth bottoms. The two ways to determine if cookpots have a flat, smooth bottom are the ruler test and the cooking test.

Ruler Test

1. Place the edge of ruler across the bottom

of the pot.

2. Hold up to the light.

3. No light should be visible under the ruler.

Cooking Test

1. Put1 inchofwater intothe cookpot,

Place cookpot on the element. Turn control to the Hi setting.

Observe the bubble formation to determine the heat distribution, tfthe bubbles are uniform across the cookpot, the cookpot will perform satisfactorily. If the

bubbles are not uniform, the bubbles will indicate the hot spots.

• Match the size of the cookpot to the size of the element, ideally the cookpot

will be the same size or slightly larger.

Heavy gauge cookpots with flat, smooth bottoms will usually work in a similar way. However, there are some differences in the cooking performance of various materials.

• Aluminumcookpotsheat quicklyandevenly. Best suitedforsimmering,braising,

boiling and frying.

• Stainlesssteel cookpotswil! evenly distributeheat if constructedof td-ply or combinedwith other metalssuch as aluminum and copper. Use for cooking functions similarto aluminum.

• Castironcookpotsare slow to heat but cook more evenlyonce temperatureis

reached. Use for longterm lowheat cookingorfor browningandfrying.

• Glassceramic,earthenware, heat-proofglassorglazedcookpotscan be used if

recommendedby the manufacturer for cookpotcooking. Do notusewithtrivets. Bestusedon low to mediumcontrolsettings.

• Porcelain enamel-on-steel or porcelain enamel-on-cast iron should be used accordingto manufacturer'sdirections. Do notallow to boildry.

Thegrillaccessoryconsistsoftwoblackgrillgrates,a grill element, and two grill-rocks.

To Install Grill

1. Before installing grill components, be certain controls are OFF.

2. Place the two grill-rocks intoan empty basin pan with their handles running parallel to the front of the range. These grill-rocks must be used since they support the grill

element.

3. Position the grill element with the terminal plug towards the terminal receptacle. This receptacle islocated at the front ofthe left side and at the back of the rightside

of the range. Slide the element towards the receptacle until the terminal plug is completely engaged. The gdllelement should now rest on the handles ofthe grill-

rocks.

4. Place the black grill grates on the top of the rangetop.

To Remove Grill

1. Remove grill components once they are cool. Be sure controls are OFF.

2. To remove grill element, pull away from receptacle until it is unplugged. (Note: Lifting the element more than 2 inches above the rangetop surface while it is engaged in the receptacle could damage the terminal plug.)

3. A storage tray, Model A350, is available for purchase and can be used for storing the grill assembly.

Installing Other Grill Accessories

1. Remove the two black grill grates from the grill. Now you are ready to use the

optional gdll accessories.

2. Review the instructionsfor installing and usingthe accessories that are packaged

with the accessory.

Note: Accessory options are shown on page 50.

Beforethefirstuse,washyournewgrillgratesinhotsoapywater,rinseanddry.

Then"season" the surface by wiping on a thin coating of cooking oil, Remove

excess oil by wiping again with another paper towel. This procedure should be repeated when either: a) cleaning in the dishwasher since the detergent may

remove seasoning, or b) anytime a sugar-based marinade (,forexample, barbecue

sauce) is going to be used.

• Preheat the grill on Hi for 5 minutes, Preheating improvesthe flavor and appearanceof meats and quickly searsthe meat to help retain thejuices, The heatingelementshouldglowa brightcherryred,

• Use nonmetallic spatulas or utensils toprevent damaging the Excalibur ® nonstick

grill grate finish.

• Excessiveamountsof fat shouldbe trimmedfrommeats. Only a normal amount is necessaryto producethe smoke needed for that smoked, "outdoor" flavor. Excessivefat can create cleaningand flare-upproblems.

Allowing excessive amounts of grease or drippings to constantly flame voids the warranty on the grill grates. Excessive flare-ups indicate that either the griUinterior

needs to be cleaned or that excessive amounts of fat are in the meat or the meat was not propedy tdmmed.

• 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.

• NEVER LEAVE GRILL UNATTENDED DURING GRILL OPERATION.

Should excess grease cause sustained flare-up

1. Turn on FAN manually.

2. Immediately turn grill controt(,s}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 grill-rocks to become overloaded with grease. Clean frequently.

• Do not cover grates completely with meat. Leave air space between each steak,

etc. to aIfow proper ventilation as well as prevent flare-ups.
