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.
29. Do not operate with damaged cooking element after any
product malfunction until proper repair has been made.
30. Keep all switches "OFF" when unit is not in use.

Ventilation System
Thebuilt-in ventilationsystem removes cooking vapors, odorsand smokefrom foods
prepared on thecooktop, grill and grill accessories.
Regular use of this system willinsure a more comfortable and less humid kitchen which
is free of heavy cooking odors and fumes that normally create a frequent need for
Cleaning and redecorating.
Using the Ventilation Systeiii
• To operate the ventilation system manually, push the
fan symbol on the three position VENTILATION AND
OVEN LIGHT SWITCH located in front of the
ventilation grille. To turnthefan off, push the switch
to themiddleposition. If thelight symbol is pushed,
the oven tight wifl be turned on.
• 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.
Cleaning the Ventilation System
Ventilation GrtlletThe surface grille lifts off easily.
Wipe clean or wash in sink with mild household detergents.
May be cleaned in dishwasher.NOTE: The oven vent is
located under the grille. Whenusing or cleaning the oven,
hot and moist air may be noticed in this area. Be careful not
to spill anything into this vent.
l_lter: Turn off ventilation system before removing. The filter is a permanent type and
should be cleaned whensoiled. Cleanin sink with v_arm water and liquid dishwashing
detergent or in dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: Filter should always be placed at an angle.As you face the front of the
range, the top of the filter should rest against the left side of the vent opening and the
bottom of the filter should rest against the right side of the ventilation chamber at the
bottom. DO NOT OPERATE SYSTEM WITHOUT FILTER.
VentHat|on qChamber:This area, which houses the filter, should be cleaned in the
event of spills or whenever it becomes coated with a film of grease.May be cleaned
with paper towel,damp cloth or sponge and mild household detergent.

Cartridges
Cooktopcartridges, either conventionalcoil or glass-ceramic,can beinstalled oneither sideofthe
range.
To Install Cartridges
1.If the grill element,grill-reck cartridges or grates are in place,removebefore installing a
cooktop cartridge, Cleangrill basin of any greaseaccumulation. (Seepage 21 for cleaning
recommendations.)
2. Toinstalleither the conventional coil or glass-ceramic cartridges,first be surecontrol knobs
are turned OFF. Position the cartridge terminal plug towards the terminal receptacle. This
receptacle islocated atthe front ofthe leftsideand atthe back ofthe rightsideof the range.
3. Slide the cartridge towards the receptacle until the cartridge terminal plug is completely
engaged.
4.Lowerthe opposite end of the cartridge into the rangefop until it isflush with the surface.
Your oooktopis now ready tOuse.
To Remove Cartridges
1. Control knobs mustbe inthe OFFposition and the cartridge should be cool.
2. Lift up on the "tab" locatedon the cartridge untiltop of cartridge clears the openingon the
rangeby about 2 inches.Lifting the cartridge too highwhile still engaged in the receptacle
coulddamagethe terminal plug.
3. To disengage terminal, hold cartridge by the sides and slide away from the terminal
receptacle. Lift out when fully unplugged.
To Store Cartridges
1. A storage tray, ModelA350, is availableand can be usedfor storing acartridge.
2. Do not stack cartridges where they may fall or be damaged.Never storeother materials on
top of the glass-ceramiccartridges since this could damage or mar the surface.

Conventional
Coil Cooktop
For best results, most efficient use of electricity and to prevent damage to the
conventional coil elements, select cookware as described below.
The variable control setting allows flexibility in selecting desired heat. The HI setting
should be used only to startcooking.The control should then be turned to a lower
setting. Energy can be saved by avoiding unnecessary rapid boiling of foods and
covering utensils whenbringing water to a boil. Use the lowest setting possible to
maintain correct frying temperature to avoid excessive splattering.Use a tight fitting lid
on utensils to speed cooking.
Retained heat in the elements can be used to finish cooking.
Do not allow pans to boil dry as this could damage both the cooktop and pan.
Selecting Proper CookingUtensils
•Select cookwarewith fiat bottoms. Flat bottom pans are the fastest and best
conductors of heat and provide the most consistent and satisfactory results. The
entire bottom of the utensil should touch the heating element evenly. Avoid using
utensils with convex, concave or irregular bottoms. A utensil which is not flat
receives the most heat at the point of contact, which causes "hot spots" and
uneven heat distribution. Hot spots can result in scorching or burning of the food.
Uneven heat distribution slows thecooking process and wastes energy.
•To determine if a utensil is flat, lay a straight edge ruler against the bottom.
• Do not use a wire trivet or any kind of heat retarding pad between the utensil and
element. Reduce the heat control setting instead.
• Do not use utensils that extend more than 1 inch oneither side of the element.
(See exceptions for canning on page 13.) Use the correct size pan for the size of
the heating element.
•Do not uselarge diameter canners or utensils except when boiling water or
canning. Sauce mixtures, syrups and fried foods all cook at much higher
temperatures than boiling water and could eventually reflect damaging heat to
the adjacent component parts of the range, shortenlife spanof heating element,
damage and discolor drip pans or cause impossible to clean spots on metal
surfaces.These problems are increased when the HI setting is used excessively
with oversized cooking utensils.
• Do not use any vessel with a turned down flange around the bottom.
• Special cooking equipment without flat bottoms,such as the Oriental wok, should
not be usedon the cooktop.Only use theJenn-Air wok accessory, Model A140,
on the range. It has a special heating element designed to eliminate problems
associated with using traditional round bottom woks on the conventional coil
cartridge, such as shortening the life of the heating element.

Thecooktopcartridge doesnotneedto be removedfrom therangefor normalcleaning,
Neverimmerse cartridge in water toclean.This can damagewiring. A drain hole within
the cartridge permitsdrainage of normalspills into theporcelain drain pan where itwill
drain into the grease container. Interior and bottom of cartridge may be wiped clean
with detergent solution if necessary.
Cartridge terminals, if dirty, may be polished with S.O.S.pad, but must be cleaned
thoroughly of soapand dried thoroughly before being inserted into range.

Glass-Ceramic
Cooktop
For best results, always use proper cookware as described below. Utensils should
match the size of the heating element. The utensils should be made of a material which
conducts heat well and does not warp after heating, such as heavy duty aluminum and
stainless steel.
Different utensils and different amounts of food being prepared will affect the
temperaturecontrol setting. (See page 10 for typical control settings.) For fastest
cooking, start with the surface control onHI for one minute; then turnthe control to the
lower desired setting. Covering utensils, whenever possible, speeds cookingand is
more energy efficient.
Glass-ceramic retains heat for a longer period of time than conventional heating
element. Consequently, if water is brought to a boil at the HI setting, it will continue to
boil rapidly for a minute or so after being turned to a lower heat setting. In the event of a
potential boil over, move the utensil to a cool element or from the cooking surface.
A benefit of the retained heat feature of glass-ceramic cooktops isthat the heating
elementcan beturnedoff several minutes before the food is done and the retained heat
canbe used to finish cooking the food or forkeeping the food warm until ready to serve.
Selecting
Proper Cooking Utensils
•Select cookwarewith flat bottoms. Flat bottom pans are the fastest and best
conductors of heat and provide the most consistent and satisfactory results.
•To determine if the utensil is fiat, place theedgeof a ruler on the bottom. Hold
up tothe light.Nolight should bevisible between the edge of the ruler and the
pan.Reject any pans that do not fit flush against ru]er's edge.
• Avoid utensils with convex, concave, or those that have irregular bottoms,such
as those with rims or ripples. Theseutensils not only cause the glass to break
but can also cause stains which may be difficult or impossibleto remove.
• Test cast ironware since all are not fiat. Also be cautioned against possible
"impact damage" should the heavy utensil be dropped on the glass-ceramic
surface.
• Do not use utensils of a diameter that permits either side of the bottom to rest
on any rim portion of thecooktop cartridge. Large utensils, such as pressure
cannersor oversized skillets, shoutd be used only on conventional element
cartridges if they do not meet this test. For tipson canning, see page13.
14

Cleaning the
Glass-Ceramic Cooktop
Save on Clean-up Time
• Make sure bottoms of oo0kware utensils are always clean and dry. Before using
utensils on the glass-ceramic cooktop for the first time, and periodica(iy as
needed, clean the bottoms with scouring pads or other cleansers. Rinse and dry
thorough)y. Soil from theutensil bottom can betransferred to thecooktop
surface.
• Make it a practice to wipe cooktop surface with a clean damp cloth or paper towel
before each use; dry thoroughly. Invisible spatters, dust specks, cleansers or
water can cause stains that appear after unit is heated.A sponge or dishcloth
which is not clean will leave film and soil laden detergent water which may cause
stains on surfaceafter area is heated.
• Usecorrect heat setting and cookware largeenough to hold food and liquid to
prevent boil overs and spattering.
• When frying, use a spatter shield to reduce spattering.
• if a bad spillover occurs while cooking,spills may be cleaned from the cooktc
while it is hot to prevent a tough cleaning chore later.Using extreme care,wit
with aclean damp towel. Be careful to avoid burns from steam or hand touchiP
the hot cooktop.
IMPORTANT
• Forcleaning: DONetusesoappads containingmetalfibers such as steelwoo} or S.O.S.
pads, oven cleaning compounds, rust stain removers, abrasive cleansers or other
cleansers net specifically recommendedfor useon glass-ceramic.
•Neverimmerse yourcooktop cartridge in water.This could damage internal wiring.
15

Daily Care
• After cooktop has cooled, remove any spillover or spatter.
• The cartridge does not need to be removed from the range for normal cleaning. If
removed, bottom may be wiped clean with damp cloth. If electrical terminals on
cartridge are cleaned, dry them thoroughly before using.
• For general daily cleaning and light surface soil, wash surface with solution of
water and any of these cleansers: dishwashing liquid such as Ivory or Joy, baking
soda, fine polishing powders as Bon Ami, or commercial ceramic cooktop
cleansers. 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,Barkeeper's Friend, Comet or any nonabrasive soft scrubbing
cleansers. Scrub with paper towels, nylor_ or plastic scrubber, such as Tu_fy.
Rinse and dry thoroughly.If stain is not removed easily, allow paste to remain on
surface for 30 to 40 minutes. Keep moist by covering with wet paper towel.
• To remove burned on spot, use a single edge razor blade. Place blade edge on
cooktop at 30 ° angle; scrape off spot. Clean remainder of soil with method
described above.
• To remove moderate to heavy stains, remove cartridge from range (to prevent
unit from being turned on). Make a paste of Barkeeper's Friend and water. Apply
to stained area. To keep paste moist, cover with clear polyester sheet, such as
Reveal and Glad. Allow to remain overnight.Rinse surface and dry thoroughly.If
stain is not completely removed,repeat procedure.
• For cartridges with chrome trim, clean with Bon Ami glass cleanser or polishing
cleanser, mild soap or detergent. See page 22 for cleaning instructions for
stainless steel trim.
IMPORTANT
• Do not use the glass-ceramic cooktop as a cutting board.
• Do not use or place plastic items anywhereon the cooktop.
• Do hot use cartridge in the event a break has occurred.Call an authorized Jenn-Air
Service Contractor.
• Donot slideor scrapealuminumutensils acrossthe cooktopsince thismaycause marks
or pits in surface which are permanent.
• Do not slide heavy metal utensils across surface since these may scratch the surface.
• Do not cook foodsdirectly on cooktop.
• Do not use aluminumfoil, disposablefoil pans(suchasthosepackagedwith popcorn)or
foil wrapped food bundleson cooktop since this can permanentlymark the surface.
• Do not allow pan to boildry as this could damage the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not usetrivets or any kindof heat retarding pad under cooking utensils.

Thegrill accessoryconsists of two black grill grates, a grill elementand two grill*rockcartridges.
To Install Grill
1. Before installing grill components, be certain surface controls are on the OFF position.
2. Place the two gri)l-rock cartridges into anempty grill basin with their handles running
para}lel to thefront of the range.These cartridges must be used since they support the grill
e(ement.
3. Position the grill element with the terminal plug towards the terminal receptacle.This
receptacle is located at thefront of theleft side and &tthe back of theright side of the
range. S}idethe element towards the receptacle until the terminal plug is completely
engaged.
4. The grill element should now rest on the handles of the grill-rock cartridges,
5. Place theblack grill grates on thetop of therangetop.
To Remove GJ,il

To remove grill element, pull away from receptacle until it is unplugged. Oo not _ift the
element while it is engaged in the receptacle since this could damage the terminal.
A storage tray, ModetA350, is availab(e for purchase and can be used for storing the grill
assembly.
lnstaUng Other Accessories
1. Remove the two black gri(( grates from the grill Now you are ready to use the opt(ona( grill-
range accessories.
2. Reviewtheinstructions for installing and using the accessories that are packaged with the
accessory.
17

Using the Grill
• Before using the grill for the first time, wash grill grates in hot, soapy water; rinse
and dry.
• Precondition new grates and grill-rocks by brushing with vegetable oil or spraying
with a non-stick coating such as Pam. This procedure should be repeated after
cleaning in a dishwasher since the detergent removes seasoning.
• For easier clean-up, as well as preventing meats from sticking to grates until they
are seasoned, spray grates, grill-rock cartridges and grill basin with a
non-stick coating.
•Preheat grill on HI setting for 5 minutes. Preheating improves the flavor and
appearance of meats and quickly sears the meat to help retain the juices. The
heating element should glow a bright cherry red.
•Excessive amounts of fat should be trimmed from meats. Only a normal amount
is necessary to produce the smoke needed for that smoked, "outdoor" flavor.
Excessive fat can create cleaning and flame-up problems.
•Allowing excessive amounts of grease or drippings to constantly flame voids the
warranty on grill grates. Excessive flame-ups indicate that either the grill interior
needs to be cleaned or that excessive amounts of fat are in the meat or the meat
was not properly trimmed.
• Grease drippings will occassionally 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 flame-up
1. Immediately turn grill heatcontrol knob to OFF position.
2. Turn on FANmanually.
3. Removemeat from grill.
IMPORTANT
• Do not use aluminumfoil inside the grill area.
• Do not use charcoal or wood chips in the grill area.
• Do not allow grill-rock cartridges to become overloadedwith grease.C_eanfrequently.
• Do not cover grates completelywith meat. Leaveair space betweeneach steak, etc. to
allow proper ventilation as well as prevent flame-ups.
