Jenn-Air CVE1400 Cooktop User Manual


 
The built-in ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors and smoke from foods
prepared on the cooktop, grill and grill accessories. Regular use of this system will
insure a more comfortable and less humid kitchen which is free of heavy cooking
odors and fumes that normally create a frequent need for cleaning and redecorating.
I,',','Usingthe Ventilation System i
To operate the ventilation system manually, push the switch located in front of the
air grille. If you push on the left side of the switch, the fan will operate at the Lo
speed. If you push on the right side of the switch, the fan will operate at the Hi
speed. To turn the fan off, the switch should be returned to the middle (level)
position.
The ventilation system will operate automatica//y when the grill element is in use.
During grilling, the fan speed is automatically set for the Hi setting AND cannot be
changed to Lo speed.
Use Hi fan speed for capturing steam. Use Lo fan speed for capturing smoke
when pan frying.
The fan can be used to remove strong odors from the kitchen as when chopping
onions near the fan.
I NOTE CVE1400 OWNERS: The cooktop is designed with an automatic
control that may turn on the downdraft fan when large cookpots are used
for extended periods on the large elements. The fan will shut off when
the cooktop has cooled down. (See p. 10.)
