SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read before operating your cooktop
All appliances - regardless of the manufacturer - have the potential
through improper or 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.
3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in area where
appliance is in use or still hot. 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. Flammable materials should not be stored 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 damp 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 cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating
element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of cookware to heating element will also improve
efficiency and performance.
10. Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boil over
causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
11. Glazed cookware - only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookpots are suitable for
cooktop surface without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Use only such cookware as you know has been
approved for this purpose.
