SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

Read before operating your range

All appliances -- regardless of the manufacturer -- have the potential through improper or careless use to create safety problems. Therefore the following safety precautions should be observed:

1.Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

2.Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. This warning is based on safety considerations.

3.Children should not be left alone or unattended in area

where appliance is in use. 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 appliance unless

specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to an authorized Jenn-Air Service Contractor.

6.Do not store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquid near range. This also applies to aerosol sprays and aerosol spray cans.

7.Do not use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

8.Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

9.Select cookware large enough to properly contain food and avoid boil overs or spillovers. This will save on cleaning and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy splattering or spillovers left on a cooktop can ignite. Pan size is especially important in deep fat frying.

10. Never leave cooktop unattended at Hi heat settings. Boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
