SUGGESTED CONTROL SETTINGS
HIGH
A fast heat to start cooking quickly and to bring liquids
to a boil.
MED
For most frying, sauteing, and slow boil of large amounts
of food.
LOW*
For simmering and melting butter or chocolate.
* The LOW setting utilizes only the inner burner. However, when using this setting, always
light the entire burner first.
OPERATING DURING
POWER FAILURE
To operate the surface burners during a
power failure:
1. Hold a lighted match near the burner
ports.
2. Push in and turn the control knob slowly
to the LIGHT setting.
3. Adjust the flame as desired.
NOTE: The broiler, oven or griddle burn-
ers cannot be turned on during a power
failure.
The controls provide an infinite number of settings between HIGH and LOW. Simply
adjust your flame to fit your needs.
The size and type of cookware and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence
the setting needed for best results. The following settings are provided as guidelines.
Settings Uses
CAUTION:
When lighting the surface burners, be
sure all of the controls are in the OFF
position. Strike a match first and hold it
in position before turning the knob to
the Lite position.
COOKWARE SELECTION
To achieve optimum cooking perfor-
mance, use professional cookware.
This type of cookware can be found at
department stores, specialty cooking stores
or restaurant supply stores.
Handles on regular cookware may melt or
bubble due to the flame size on the large,
professional size burners.
Thin, single-ply stainless steel is not recom-
mended because of hot spots and potential
burning of food.
SIZE OF COOKWARE
• Flame size should be adjusted so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
This instruction is based on safety con-
siderations. Adjusting the size of the
flame to fit the size of the cookware also
helps to save fuel.
• Pans which extend more than two inches
beyond the grate or touch the cooktop
may cause heat to build up, resulting in
damage to the burner grate, burner or
cooktop.
• Specialty items, such as woks with a
support ring, which restrict air circula-
tion around the burner will cause heat
to build up and may result in damage to
the burner grate, burner or cooktop.
Use Jenn-Air flat bottom wok ac-
cessory, Model AO142.
CANNING
• When canning, use the HIGH setting
just until the water comes to a boil or
pressure is reached in a pressure can-
ner. Then, reduce to the lowest flame
setting that maintains the boil or pres-
sure.
• Prolonged use of the HIGH setting or
the use of incorrect canning utensils will
produce excessive heat. Excessive heat
can cause permanent damage to the
appliance.
