About YourJenn-Air
Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air radiant cooktop. The
four cooking areas are identified by circles on the ceramic cooktop.
When an element is turned ON, the element under the cooktop
will heat up and the red glow of the wire can be seen through
the ceramic top. The element will cycle on and off for all control
settings except HI. It is normal to see the red glow of the element
whenever it cycles on.
For best results, always use proper cookware. Cookpots should
be about the same diameter as the cooking area and should be
centered to be energy efficient.
The ceramic cooking area retains heat for a period of time after
the elements have been turned off. Put this residual heat to good
use. Turn the element off a few minutes before food is completely
cooked and use the retained heat to complete the cooking
operation. Because of this heat retention characteristic, the
elements will not respond to changes in heat settings as quickly
as coil elements.
Before you begin cooking with your new cooktop, please take a
few minutes to read and become familiar with the instructions in
this book. On the following pages you will find a wealth of
information regarding all aspects of using your new cooktop. By
following the instructions carefully, you will be able to fully enjoy
and properly maintain your cooktop and achieve excellent results
with the food you prepare.
Should you have any questions about using your Jenn-Air cooktop,
write to us. Be sure to provide the model number.
