WARNING: To reduce risk of tip-
ping of the appliance from ab-
normal usage or by excessive
[oading of the oven door, the
appliance must be secured by a
properly installed anti-tip device,
To check if device is properly installed, trip
circuit breaker to disconnect power, re-
move access pane[ and look underneath
range to verify that one of the rear leveling
legs is properly engaged in the bracket slot.
Replace the access pane[ and reset circuit
breaker. The anti-tip device secures the
rear leveling leg to the floor when properly
engaged. You should check this anytime
the range has been moved.
Avoid placing the range 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 passage-
way and create a hazard.

[f appliance is installed near a window,
proper precautions should be taken to
prevent curtains from blowing over burn-
ers.
NEVER leave any items on the cod<top.
The hot air from the vent may ignite flam-

Many plasticsare vulnerableto heat. Keep
plastics away from parts of the appliance
that may become warm or hot. Do not
leaveplasticitems on the cod<top asthey

To eliminate the hazard of reaching over
hot surfaceburners, cabinetstorage should
not be provided direcdy above a unit. [f

extended cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on
the surfaceburner or in the oven.Pressure
build-up may causecontainer to burst re-
suiting in seriouspersona[injury or damage
to the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy pothoiders. Damp pot-
holders may cause burns from steam.
Dishtowels or other substitutes should
never be usedaspothdders becausethey

ignite or get caughton applianceparts.
Always let quantities of hot fat used for
deep fat frying coo[ before attempting to
move or handle.
Do not let cooking greaseor other flare-
mane materialsaccumulate in or near the
appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood
frequently to prevent greasefrom accumu-
latingon hood or filter. When flamingfoods
under the hood turn the fan on.
NEVER wear garments made of flam-
mable material or loose fitting or long-
sleeved @pare[ while cooking. Clothing
may ignite or catch utensil handles.
Always place oven racks in the desired
positions while oveniscool SHe oven rack
out to add or remove food, using dry,
sturdy pothoiders. Always avoid reaching
into the oven to add or remove food. if a
rack must be moved while hot, use a dry
pothoider. Always turn the oven off at the
end of cooking.
Use carewhen openingthe oven door. Let
hot air or steam escapebefore moving or
replacing food.
Always remove soiled broiler panfrom the
broiler compartment aftercooking.Grease
left in the pan may become hot enough
to ignite.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Fol-
low food manufacturer's instructions, if a
plastic frozen food container and/or its
cover distorts, warps, or isotherwise dam-
aged during cooking, immediately discard
the food and its container. The food could
be contaminated.
NEVER use aluminum foil to cover oven
racks or oven bottom. This could result in
risk of electric shock, fire, or damageto the
appliance. Use foil only as directed in this
guide.
Do not use aluminum foil to line burner
spi[[overbow[. Restriction of normalair flow
may result in unsafeoperation.

IMPORTANT SAF[Z%
NOTICE AND
The California Safe Drinking Water and
Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposi-
tion 65) requires the Governor of Califor-
niato punish a list of substancesknown to
the State of California to causecancer or
reproductive harm,andrequiresbusinesses
to warn customers of potential exposures
to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned
that the burning of natural gas can result in
low-level exposure to some of the listed
substances, including benzene, formalde-
hyde and soot, due primarily to the incom-
plete combustion of natural gas. Properly
adjusted burners wii[ minimize incomplete
combustion. Exposure to these substances
can also be minimized by properly venting
the burners to the outdoors.
[HPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING
PET BIRDS: Never keep pet birds in the
kitchen or in rooms where the fumesfrom
the kitchen could reach. Birds havea very
sensitive respiratory system. Fumes re-
leased during an oven self-cleaningcycle
may be harmful or fatal to birds. Fumes
releaseddueto overheated cooking oil, fat,
margarineandoverheated non-stick cook-
ware may be equallyharmful.

(_OOKWARE gELEC.... FI(,)N
To achieve optimum cooking perfor-
mance, use professional cookware°
This type of cookware can be found at
department stores, specialty cooking stores
or restaurant supply stores.
Handles on regular cookware may melt or
bubble due to the flame size on the large,
professional size burners.
Thin, single-ply stainless steel isnot recom-
mended because of hot spots and pomntial
burning of food.
_IZE OF COOKWARE
•Flamesize should beadjusted so itdoes not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
This instruction is based on safety con-
siderations. Adjusting the size of the
flame m fitthe size of the cookware also
helps m save fuel.
• Panswhichextend morethantwoinches
beyond the gram or touch the cooktop
may cause heat m build up, resulting in
damage m the burner grate, burner or
cooktop.
oSpeciaky imms, such as woks with a
support ring, which restrict air circula-
tion around the burner will cause heat
to build up and may result in damage to
the burner grate, burner or cookmp.
Use Jenn-Air fiat bottom wok ac-
cessory, Mode[ AO [42.
CANNING
° When canning, usethe HIGH setting
just until the water comes to a boil or
pressure is reached in a pressure can-
ner. Then,reduce to the lowest flame
setting that maintains the boil or pres-
sure.
Prolonged useof the HIGH setting or
the useof incorrect canningutensilswill
produce excessiveheat. Excessiveheat
can cause permanent damage to the
