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 reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to
such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that the burning of gas can result
in low-level exposure to some of the listed substances, including benzene,
formaldehyde and soot, due primarily to the incomplete combustion of natural
gas or liquid petroleum (LP) fuels. Properly adjusted burners will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can also be minimized
by properly venting the burners to the outdoors.
WARNING
Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for

SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
Read before operating your oven
All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the
potential through improper or careless use to create safety prob-
lems. 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
specifically 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 the oven.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. Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or replacing food.
10. Do not heat unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure
may cause container to burst and result in injury.
11.Keep oven veht ducts unobstructed.
12. Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is
cool.

13. CAUTION -- Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above oven--children climbing to reach items
could be seriously injured.
14. Do not touch oven burner or interior surfaces of oven.
Interior surfaces of any oven or broiler cavities become
hot enough tocause burns. Other surfaces of the appliance
also may become hot enough to cause burns. Among these
surfaces are: oven vent openings and surfaces near these
openings, oven doors, windows of oven doors. Be sure all
appliance parts are cool before touching or cleaning. Avoid
contact with these areas by clothing or other flammable
materials until they have had sufficient time to cool.
15. Keep all controls "OFF" when unit is not in use.
16. Clean only parts listed in this manual and use procedures
recommended.
17. Always allow hot pans to cool in a safe place out of the
reach of small children.
18. Always remove soiled broiler pan from the broiler com-
partment after cooking for grease left in the pan may
become hot enough to ignite.
19. A faint gas odor may indicate a failure of the automatic
ignition or a gas leak. If a gas odor is detected, cut off
the gas supply to the oven. Call your installer or local gas
company to have the possible leak checked. Never use a
match orotherflame to locate a gas leak.
20. Avoid placing the oven in a main "traffic path" or in an
isolated location with no counter space nearby. Visualize
the oven in use before selecting a location. Remember that
open oven doors may block a passageway and create a
hazard.
21. Aluminum foil, used improperly, is a cause of many oven
fires, as well as baking problems. Use foil only as instructed,
particularly in the broiler.Holesin the broiler panor the
air openings in the oven bottom should never be covered
with foil.
22. Misuse of appliance doors,such as stepping,leaning or
sitting on the door, may result in possible tipping of the
appliance, breakage of door, and serious injuries.

!Basic Information
How The Oven Works
When theTEMPERATURE knob is turned to a desired setting, there will be a 45to60
second delay before the oven burner lights. This delay is for safety considerations.
When the oven reaches the temperature set on the TEMPERATURE knob, the oven
burner will automatically cycle on and off to maintain the preset temperature. If the
TEMPERATURE knob is turned to BROIL, the oven burner will remain on during most
normal broiling operations. The burner will cycle on and off forextended broiling
operations.
How Glow Bar Ignition Works
Whenthe TEMPERATURE knob is turned to the desired setting, power is supplied to
the glow bar ignitor. Once the ignitor is hot the oven burner will ignite. When the
TEMPERATURE knob is turned off both the glow bar and burner will go off.
Convert from Natural to LP Gas
The wall oven is shipped from the factory set for natural gas. To convert from natural
gas to LP gas, refer to the installation instructions (Part No. 204132).
During A Power Failure
The oven CAN NOT be used during periods of power outage.

Rack Positions
The rack positions noted are generally recommended for the best browning results and
most efficient cooking times. Refer to charts in the baking, roasting and broiler sections
for recommendations for specific foods.
Oven Rack Positions
Use Rack Position #1 for:
Roasting meat and poultry, angel food cake, bundt cake.
Use Rack Position#2 for:
Large casseroles, loaves of bread, cakes, muffins, pies.
Use Rack Position #3 for:
Most baked goods on cookie sheet or jelly roll pan, frozen convenience foods.
Use Rack Position #2 and #4 for:
Two rack baking of cookies, layer cakes, biscuits.
Broiler Rack Positions
Use Rack Position #2 for:
Thick steaks, pork chops, bacon,chicken.
Use Rack Position #3 for:
Most broiling.

General Baking Recommendations
• When cooking foods for the first time in your new oven, use recipe cooking
times and temperatures as a guide.
• Use tested recipes from reliable sources.
• Preheat the oven only when necessary. For baked foods that rise and for
richer browning, a preheated oven is better. Preheat oven for 10 minutes.
Casseroles can be started in acold oven.
• Arrange oven racks before turning on oven. Follow suggested rack posi-
tions on page 9.
• Allow about 1 to 11/2inches of space between the oven side walls and
pans to allow proper air circulation.Crowding of pans may cause uneven
browning or uneven rising of leavened foods.
• When baking foods in more than one pan, place them on opposite corners
of the rack. Stagger pans when baking on two racks so that one pan does
not shield another unless shielding is intended. (See above photo.)
• To conserve energy, avoid frequent or prolonged door openings. At the
end of cooking, turn oven off before removing food.
• Always test for doneness (fingertip, toothpick, sides pulling away from
pan). Donot rely on time or brownness as only indicators.
• Use good quality baking pans and the size recommended in the recipe.
• Dull, dark, enameled or glass pans will generally produce a brown, crisp
crust. Shiny metal pans produce a light, golden crust.
• Frozen pies in shiny aluminum pans should be baked on a cookie sheet on
rack 2 or be removed to a dull or glass pan.
• The use of aluminum foil in the oven is not recommended as it can affect
oven performance.
NOTE: When the BROIL setting is used, the oven cannot be used at the
same time.
