Important Safety Notice
and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when
the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may
be some low-level exposure to some of the listed
substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to
these substances can be minimized by properly venting
the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/
or door in the room where the appliance is located
during the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS:
Never keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where
the fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a
very sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released during
an oven self-cleaning cycle may be harmful or fatal to
birds. Fumes released due to overheated cooking oil, fat,
margarine and overheated non-stick cookware may be
equally harmful.
Jenn-Air’s ventilation system is designed to capture both
cooking fumes and smoke from the cooktop surface. If
the system does not, here are some ducting installation
situations to check:
• 6” diameter round or 3 1/4” x 10” rectangular ducting
should be used for duct lengths 10’-60’.
• There should be a minimum clearance of 6” for
cooktop installed near a side wall.
If there is not an obvious improper installation, there
may be a concealed problem such as a pinched joint,
obstruction in the pipe, etc. Installation is
the responsibility of the installer and
questions should be addressed first by the
installer. The installer should very carefully
check the ducting installation instructions.
• Use the Flow Tester Card provided with
your appliance to check the air flow.
