VENTILATION SYSTEM
The built-in ventilation system removes
cooking vapors, odors and smoke from
foods prepared on your cooktop and
grill.
• To operate the
ventilation
system
manually,
push the vent fan
switch located in front of the air grille.
Push to the right for high or push to
the left for low.
• The ventilation system will operate
automatically on high when the grill
element is in use.
• The fan can be used to remove strong
odors from the kitchen as when
chopping onions near the fan.
CARE AND CLEANING OF THE
VENTILATION SYSTEM
• Air Grille: The air grille lifts off easily.
Wipe clean or wash in dishwasher or
sink with mild household detergents.
To prevent scratching the surface, do
not use abrasive cleaners or
scrubbing pads.
• Filter: Turn off ventilation system
before removing. The filter is a
permanent type and should be
cleaned when soiled. Clean in sink
with warm water and detergent or in
dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPERATE
SYSTEM WITHOUT FILTER. Filter
should always be placed at an angle.
As you face the front of the cooktop,
the top of the filter should rest against
the left side of the vent opening. The
bottom should rest against the right
side of the vent chamber at the
bottom. (Note: If filter is flat
against the fan wall, ventilation
effectiveness is reduced.)
• Ventilation Chamber: This area,
which houses the filter, should be
cleaned in the event of spills or
whenever it becomes coated with a
film of grease. It can be cleaned with
paper towel, damp cloth, or sponge
and mild household detergent or
cleanser.
COIL ELEMENTS
(MODEL JED8130)
• When an element is turned on, it will
cycle on and off to maintain the heat
setting.
• Coil elements are self-cleaning.
• Do not immerse in water.
TO REMOVE: When cool, raise
element. Carefully pull out and away
from receptacle.
TERMINALS
TO REPLACE: Insert terminals on the
element into receptacle. Guide the
element into place. Gently press down
on the outer
edge of the
element until it
sits level on the
drip bowl.
DRIP BOWLS
The drip bowls, located under each
surface element, are designed to catch
boilovers and must always be used.
Absence of these bowls during cooking
may damage wiring or other parts
underneath the cooktop.
To prevent the risk of electric shock or
fire, never line drip bowls with alumi-
num foil.
Drip bowls will discolor (blue/gold
stains) over time, if overheated. This
discoloration is permanent. However, it
will not affect cooking performance.
FILTER
TO PROTECT DRIP BOWL
FINISH:

long periods of time.

Pans should not extend more
than 1-2 inches beyond the
element.
• When home canning, use the
Canning Element (Model A145A).
