SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
Read before operating your range
All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the
potential through improper or careless use to create safety
problems.Thereforethe following safety precautionsshouldbe
observed:
1, Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded
by a qualified technician.
2. Neveruseyour applianceforwarming or heatingthe room.
3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in area
whereapplianceis in use.Theyshouldneverbe allowedto
sit or standon anypart of the appliance.
4. Wear proper apparel. Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance.
5.Do not repairor replace any part of the appliance unless
specificallyrecommendedinthe manual.All otherservicing
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 clamp potholders on hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholder touch hot heating elements.Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
9. Use proper pan size. Many appliances are equipped with
one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils
having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may
result in ignition,of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil
to heating element will also improve efficiency.
10.Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings.
Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
11. On conventional element ranges make sure that drip pans
are in place. Absence of these pans during cooking may
subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
12. Do not use aluminum foil to line surface unit drip pans, grill
basin or oven bottom. Installation of these liners may result
in an electric shock or fire hazard.
13. Glazed cooking utensils -- only certain types of glass,
glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for range top surface without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Use only such
utensils as you know have been approved for this purpose.
14. Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend
over adjacent surface heating elements to avoid burns,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil.
15. Do not soak or immerse removable heating elements in
water.
16. 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.
17. Do not touch surface units or areas near units, heating
elements or interior surfaces of oven. Surface units or
heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in

color.Areas near surface units and interior surfaces of an
oven may becomehot enough to causeburns.During and
after use, do not touch or let clothing dr other flammable
materials contact these areas until they have had sufficient
time to cool. Other surfaces may become hot enough to
causeburns -- among thesesurfaces arethe cooktop, the
upper door frame and glass,oven vent opening and
surfaces near the opening, and the top edge of the control
panel.
18. Use care when opening door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food.
19. Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of
pressuremay cause container to burst and result in injury.
20. Keepoven vent ducts unobstructed.
21. 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.
22.Do not clean door gasket. Thedoor gasket isessential for a
good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,damage or
move the gasket.
23. 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.
24. Clean only parts listed in this manual and use procedures
recommended.
25. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove broiler pan and
other utensils.
26.Listen for fan.A fan noise should be heard during the
cleaning cycle. If not, call a serviceman before self-
cleaning again.
27. 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.
28. 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.

Ventilation System
Thebuilt-in ventilationsystem removes cooking vapors, odorsand smokefrom foods
prepared on thecooktop, grill and grill accessories.

• The ventilation system will operate automatically when the grill element is in
use.
• Besides using the ventilation system to removecooking vapors and fumes, it
can be used to cool baked pies, cakes or hot utensils. To cool an item, set it on
the ventilation grille and turn on the fan. The air being pulled over the item will
quickly cool it. Be careful not to cover the oven vent or the entire ventilation
grille.
• The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen as when chopping
onions near the fan.
