8. Useonlydry potholders. Moistordamppotholdersonhotsurfaces
may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholdertouch hot
heatingelements. Donot use atowelor otherbulky cloth.
9. Use properpan size.Many appliances are equippedwith one or
more surface units of different size. Select cookwarehaving flat
bottoms large enough to coverthe surface unit heating element.
Theuseofundersizedcookwarewillexposeaportionoftheheating
element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Properrelationshipofcookwareto heatingelementwillalsoimprove
efficiencyand performance.
10. Neverleavesurfaceunitsunattendedathighheatsettings.Boilover
causessmokingand greasyspilloversthat mayignite.
11. Glazed cookware - only certain types of glass,glass-ceramic,
ceramic,earthenware,or other glazed cookpots are suitable for
cooktop surface without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature.Use only such cookwarethat you know has been
approvedforthis purpose.

12. Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over
adjacent surface heating elements to avoid burns, ignition of flam-
mable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the
cookware.
13. CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets
above a cooktop - children climbing on the cooktop to reach items
could be seriously injured.
14. Do not touch surface units or areas near units. Surface units may
be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surfaceunits
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.
15. Do not cook on glass-ceramic cooking surface if the cooktop is
broken. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create ashock hazard. Contact an authorized Jenn-Air
Service Contractor.
16. Clean glass-ceramic cooktops with caution.Ifa wet sponge or cloth

21. This appliance has beentested for safe performance using conven-
tional cookware. Do not useany devices or accessories that are not
specifically recommended in this manual. Do not use eyelid covers
for the surface units or stovetop grills. The use of devices or
accessories that are notexpressly recommended inthis manual can
create serious safety hazards, result inperformance problems, and
reduce the life of the components of the appliance.
22. Donot let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumu-
late in or near the appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood fre-
quently to prevent grease from accumulating on hood or filter. When
flaming foods under the hood turn the fan on.

The size and type of cookware used and the amount and type of food being cooked will
influence the setting needed for best cooking results. Electrical line voltage may also
vary, which will affect the needed control setting+ The setting indicated should serve as
a guide while you become familiar with your cooktop.
Hi A fast heat to start cooking quickly, to bring liquids to a boil or blanch.
7-10 (Medium High) For fast frying or browning foods, to maintain rapid boil of large
amounts of food.
5-6 (Medium) For foods cooked in adouble boiler, sauteing, slow boil of large amounts
of food, and most frying.
3-4 (Medium Lo) To stew, steam, simmer; to continue cooking foods started on higher
settings.
LO-2 Maintaining serving temperatures of foods, simmering foods, melting butter or
chocolate.
The controls offer flexibility in setting selection. On settings other than Hi, you may adjust
the controls above or below the numbered setting for best results. Suggested settings
are provided as general guidelines.

To achieve optimum cooking performance, use heavy gauge, flat, smooth bottom
cookpetsthatconformtothediameterofthecookingarea. Propercookpotswillminimize

The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors, smoke and steam from
foods prepared on the cooktop.Regular use of this system will insure amore comfortable
and less humid kitchen which is free of heavy cooking odors and fumes that normally
createa frequent need for cleaning and redecorating.
•The fan control is located at the front ofthe control panel. To operate the ventilation
system manually+ turn the fan control knob clockwise. The variable speed fan can
be operated at an infinite number of settings.
• Besides using the ventilation system to remove cooking vapors and fumes, itcan be
used tocool baked pies, cakes or hot pans. To cool an item, set it on the air grille
and turn on the fan. The air being pulted over the item will quickly cool )t. Be careful
not to cover the entire air grille.
• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen as when chopping
onions near the fan.
AirGrille
Theair grille lifts off easily. Wipe clean or wash in sink with mildhousehold detergents, it may
be cleaned in the dishwasher. Filter
Turn off ventilation system before removing. The filter is a
permanenttype and should becleanedwhen soiled.Clean
in sink with warmwater andliquiddishwashing detergent or
in dishwasher.
Important: DO NOT OPERATE SYSTEM WITHOUT FIL-
TER. Filter should always be placed at an angle. As you
face the front of the cooktop, the bottom ofthe fitter should
rest onthe ledgeonthe right side. Thetop ofthefirtershourd
restagainst the leftside. There are also ledges onthe front
and rear sides for the filter to rest. (Note: If filter is flat
against the fan wall, ventilation effectiveness is reduced.)
Ventilation Chamber
This area, which houses the filter,should be cleaned in the event of spills or whenever it
becomes coated with a film of grease. It may be cleaned with paper towel, damp cloth, or
sponge and mild household detergent or cleanser.
14

Jenn-Air's ventilation system is designed to capture both cooking fumes, smoke and
steam. If the system does not, these are some ducting installation situations to check:
• 6" diameter round or 3 V4"x 10" rectangular ducting should be used. Note: 5"
diameter round ducting may be used if the duct length is 10' or less.
• No more than three90° elbows should be used. Distance between elbows should
be at least 18".
• Recommended Jenn-Air wall cap should beused.Make sure damper moves freely
when ventilation system is operating.
• There should be a minimum clearance of 6" for cooktop installed near a side wall.
if there is not an obvious improper installation,there may be a concealed problem such
asapinched joint, obstruction in the pipe, etc. Installation is the responsibility of the
installer and questions should be addressed first by the installer. The installer should
very carefully check theducting installation instructions.
15

BEFORE CLEANING, BE CERTAIN ALL ELEMENTS ARE TURNED OFF AND THE
COOKTOP iS COOL.
CAUTION: Do NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be
hazardous toyourhealth and can chemically attack the glass-ceramic
surface.
NOTE:Plastic objects,sugar or foods with high sugar content allowed tomelt onto
the cooktop can cause damage. See page 11 for cleaning instructions.
•For general dailycleaning and lightsurface soil,use a clean dishcloth orpaper towel
and wash surface with solution of water and any of these cleansers: dishwashing
liquid such as Ivory or Joy, baking soda, fine polishing powders such as Bon Ami, or
commercial ceramiccooktopcleansers such as Cooktop Cleaning Creme (Part No.
20000001). Wipe with clean damp cloth or paper towel. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• To remove residue from burned on spills, make a paste of water and baking soda or
Bon Ami, Bar Keepers Friend, Comet, Shiny Sinks or nonabrasive soft scrubbing
cleansers, such as Cooktop Cleaning Creme (Part No. 20000001). Scrub with paper
towels, nylon or plastic scrubber, such as Tufty. Rinse and dry thoroughly. If stain
is not removed easily, allow paste to remain on surface for 30 to 40 minutes. Keep
moist by covedng with wet paper towel or plastic wrap.
• To remove burnt on spot, use a single edge razor blade. Place blade edge on
cooktop at30°angle; scrape off spot. Cleanremainder of soil with method described
above.
To remove knobs,turn tothe OFF position. Pull each knob strai9ht up from the shaft.
Wash knobs in warm soapy water or dishwasher; do not use abrasive cleaners or
materials. TO replace each knob, match flat part of knob opening with the spring onthe
flat part of the shaft, returning to OFF position.
