Read before operating your cooktop
All appliances -regardless of the manufacturer -have the potential
through improper or careless use to create safety problems. Therefore
thefollowing safety precautions should be observed:
1. Be sure your applianceis properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technJcJan.
2. Never useyour appliancefor warming or heating theroom.
3.Children should not beleft aloneor unattended in area where
applianceis in useor 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 applianceunless specifically
recommended in thismanual.All otherservicing should bereferred
to an authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor.
6. Flammablematerials should not be stored near surfaceunits.
7. Do not use water ongrease fires.Smother fire or flame or use dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
8. Use only dry potholders. Moist ordamp potholders on hot surfaces
may resultin bumsfrom 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 oneor
more surface units of different size. Select cookware havingflat
bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.
Theuse of undersized cookwarewill expose a portion ofthe heating
element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of cookware to heating element will also im-
proveefficiencyand performance.
10. Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boil
over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
11, Glazedcookware - only certaintypes of glass,glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookpots aresuitablefor
cooktop surface without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Use only such cookware as you knowhas been
approved for this purpose.
12. Cookware handlesshould be turned inward and not extend over
adjacent surface heating elements to avoid burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillagedue to unintentional contact with
thecookware.
13.CAUTION - Do not storeitems of interest to childrenincabinets
above a cooktop-children climbing on thecooktop toreachitems
could be seriously injured.
14. Do not touch surfaceunits or areas near units. Surface unitsmay
be hot even though they aredark in color. Areasnear surfaceunits
may become hot enough tocause burns. Duringand after use, do
not touch or letclothing or other flammable materials contact these
areas until they havehad sufficient time to cool.
15.Do not cook on glass-ceramiccooking surface if thecooktop is
broken. Cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create ashock hazard.Contact an authorized
Jenn-Air Service Contractor.
16. Cleanglass-ceramic cooktops with caution. If wetspongeor cloth
isused to wipe spillson a hot cooking area,be careful to avoid
steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface,
17. Donot operate with damaged cooking element after any product
malfunction until proper repair has been made.
18.Keep all switches "OFF"when unit isnot in use.
19.Clean only parts listed in this manual and use proceduresrecom-
mended.
20. Do not use aluminum foil or foil containers on the cooktop. These
may become very hot.
21. Thisappliancehasbeentestedforsafeperformanceusingconven-
tionalcookware. Do not use any devicesor accessoriesthat arenot
specifically recommended inthis manual. Do not useeyelid covers
for the surface unitsor stovetop grills. The useof devices or
accessories that are not expressly recommended in thismanual
can createserioussafety hazards, result in performanceproblems,
and reduce the life of the components of the appliance.

Acceptablecanningpotsshould notbe oversizedand musthave aflat bottom.When
canners do not meetthese standards,the useof theHi settingbecomes excessive and
may result in damage to the cooktop. In addition, water may not come to a boil and
canners may not reach 10 Ibs.of pressure.
The acceptable canning procedure uses theHi setting just long enough to bring the
water to a boil, then lower thesetting to maintain thewater temperature.
Heavy gaugecookpots withflat, smooth bottomswillusuallywork in a similarway.
However, there aresome differencesin the cooking performance of variousmaterials.
Aluminum cookpotsheat quickly and evenly. Best suitedfor simmering, braising,
boiling and frying.
Note: Aluminum cookpotswill causemetalmarks on theglass-ceramic surface if
you slide them across thecooktop. Removemetal marks immediately.
Stainless steel ceokpotswill evenly distribute heat if constructed of tri-ply or
combined with other metals such as aluminum and copper. Usefor cooking
functions similar to aluminum.
Cast iron cookpots are slow to heat but cook more evenly once temperatureis
reached. Use for long term low heat cooking or for browning end frying.
Porcelain enamel-on-steel or porcelain enamel-on-cast iron should beused
according to manufacturer's directions. Do not allow to boil dry.
Glass-ceramic, earthenware, heatproofglass orglazed cookpots may scratch the
glass-ceramic cooktop and therefore arenot recommended.
Note Halogen element:Aluminum cookpots may cause the element to cycle even
when the controtsettingis Hi.
The cookingareas are identified by circleson the glass-ceramic cooktop.When an

Whenchoosingcookwarefor the inductionelements,considerthe material,gauge,and
sizeofthe cookware. Note; Cookwaredoes NOT haveto befiat foroptimum
performanceon the inductionelements.
The cookware MUST bemadeof a ferromagneticmaterial inorder to work onthe
induction cooktop. To determine if a material is magnetic, test the bottom of the
cookware with a magnet.If the magnet sticksto theoutsidebottom of the oookware,
thecookware will work on your induction element.
Examples of magnetic material are:
porcelain on steel;
• porcelain on cast-iron;
cast-iron; and
tri-ply stainless steel.
Examplesof nonferromagnetic materials,which do NOT work onthe induction elements
are:
• aluminumor aluminumclad;
copperor copperclad;
porcelainon aluminum;
glass-ceramic;or
earthenware.
Cookwarecomes ina variety ofgaugethicknesses.Thingaugepots willperformwell
in bringing water to a boil quickly,simmering,and stewing. Heavier gauge skillets
providea better overall browning pattern.
CookpotsMUST beat least4or moreinches in diameter in orderto workonthe
inductioncooktop.
Forbetterbrowningwhenpan-frying,matchthebottomdiameterofthe skilletwith
thesizeofthe cookingarea.
UseJenn-Air'sflat bottomwok (ModelAO142) for
