Read before operating your range
All appliances -regardless of the manufacturer -have the potential
through improperor careless use to create safety problems. 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. Childrenshould not be left aloneorunattended in areawhere
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand
on any part of theappliance.
4. Wear proper apparel.Loose-fitting orhanging garments should
never be worn while using the appliance.
5. Do not repair or replaceany part of the appliance unlessspecifi-
cally recommended in this manual.All other servicing should be
referred toan authorized Jenn-Air ServiceContractor.
6.Do not store combustiblematerials, gasoline or other flammable
vaporsand liquidnear range.This also appliesto aerosolsprays
and aerosol spray cans.
7. Do not use water on greasefires. Smother fireor flame or use dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. Use only dry potholders.Moist or damp potholderson hot
surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth.
9.Selectcookware large enough to properly contain food andavoid
boilovers or spiilovers.This will save on cleaning and prevent
hazardous accumulations offood, since heavy splattering or
spillovers left ona cooktop can ignite. Pan size is especially
important in deep fat frying.
10. Never leave cooktop unattended at Hi heat settings.Boilover
causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
11. TYPE OF COOKWARE -Avoid pans that are unstable andeasily
tipped. In choosing pans, lookfor easUy-grasped handles that will
stay cool. Pans thatare too heavy when filled with food can also
be a hazard. If pan handles twistand cannot betightened, discard
thepan. 5

12. HANDLES - Always turnpan handles to the side or back of the
cooktop - notout into theroom wheretheyareeasily hit. COOK-
WARE HANDLESSHOULD BETURNED INWARD AND NOT
EXTEND OVER ADJACENT SURFACE BURNERS to minimize
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillagedueto uninten-
tional contactwith thecookware.
13. CAUTION - Do not storeitemsof interest to children in cabinets
above range-children climbing on therangeto reach itemscould
be seriously injured.
14. Do not touch gdll and surface burnerareas or perimeter trim
around cooktop or interior surfaces of oven. During and after use,
these areasmay behot enough to cause burns.Avoid contact with
these areasby clothing or other flammablematerialsuntil they
have had sufficient timetocool. Other surfacesmay becomehot
enough to cause burns- among these surfaces are theupper door
frame and door, oven vent opening and surfaces near the opening,
and the top edgeof thecontrol panel.
15.Keep all controls"OFF"whenunit is not in use.
16. Keep oven vent ductsunobstructed. The oven isvented under the
air grille.
17. GREASE - Greaseis flammable and should be handled carefully.
Never leave any cookingoperation unattended. Let fatcool before
attempting to handle it.Do not allow grease to collect around the
cooktop or in the vents. Wipe up spillovers immediately.
18. Ifthe range is installed near a window, proper precautions should
be takento prevent curtainsfrom blowingover burners creatinga
FIRE HAZARD.
19. Do not use aluminum foil to line aeration tray or burner basin.
Restriction of normal air flow may result in unsafe operation.
20. Do not usecookwareon thegdll section of this appliance.
21.Beforeservicing your appliance, disconnect power to the rangeat
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel and at theelectrical recep-
tacle.
22. Always allow hot pansto cool in a safeplaceout of thereach of
smallchildren.
23. A faint gas odor may indicatea gas leak. If a gas odor is detected,
shut off the gas supply to the range.Call your installer or local gas
companyto havethe possible leak checked. Neveruse a match
or otherflame to locatea gas leak,

24. Glazed cookware - onlycertaintypes of glass,glass-ceramic,
ceramic,earthenware,or otherglazedcookwareare suitablefor
cooktopsurfacewithoutbreakingdue to the suddenchangein
temperature.Use only suchcookwareas you knowhas been
approvedforthispurpose.
25. Avoidplacingtherange in a main "trafficpath"or in an isolated
locationwithno counterspacenearby. Visualizethe ovenin use
beforeselectingalocation.Rememberthatopenovendoorsmay
blocka passagewayandcreatea hazard.
26. Usecarewhenopeningoven door. Let hotair or steam escape
beforeremovingor replacingfood.
27.Donotheat unopenedfoodcontainers.Build-upofpressuremay
causecontainerto burstand resultin injury.
28. Alwaysplace ovenracksindesiredlocationwhile oveniscool. If

With your grill and accessodes,literally anyfood you've considered "at itsbest"when
prepared outdoors can now beprepared indoors with less fuss and great flavor.
The following suggestionsare good rules to follow and will increaseyour enjoyment
of theequipment.
•Be sureto follow directionson page18for using the grill.
•Suggestedcookingtimesand contral settingsareapproximatedue tovariations
in meats. Experience will quickly indicate cooking times as well as which
settingswork best.
•Forbestresults,buytopgrade meat. Meat thatisat least_inchwill grill better
thanthinner cuts.
