Manual

Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air conventional coil cooktop cartridge. The
conventional coil cartridge is the most versatile of the cartridges. The two accessories,
which may be used with the coil cartridge, are a wok accessory and big pot canning
element.
• For best results, always use recommended cookware.
• Different cookpots and different amounts of food being prepared will influence the
control settings needed for best results. (See cooktop or range use & care manual
for typical control settings.) For fastest cooking, start with the surface control on Hi
for one minute; then turn the control to the lower desired setting. Covering pans,
whenever possible, speeds cooking and is more energy efficient.
• Do not allow pans to boil dry as this could damage both the cooktop and the pan.
• Do not drop heavy cookware on the cooktop surface.
• Select cookware with flat bottoms. Flat bottom pans are the fastest and best
conductors of heat and provide the most consistent and satisfactory results. The
entire bottom of the pan should touch the heating element evenly, Avoid using pans
with convex, concave or irregular bottoms. A pan which is not flat receives the most
heat at the point of contact, which causes "hot spots" and uneven heat distribution,
Hot spots can result in scorching or burning of the food. Uneven heat distribution
slows the cooking process and wastes energy,
• To determine if pan is flat, lay a straight edge ruler against the bottom.
• Do not use a pan with a turned down flange around the bottom or a ripple bottom.
• Do not use a pan that extends more than 1 inch on either side of the element. Use
the correct size pan for the size of the heating element. (See exceptions for canners
and stockpots below.)
• Large stockpots and canners should be used with Jenn-Air's "Big-pot" canning
element on_y(Model A145A). The use of large pans on the large element on Hi for
extended periods of time can cause damage to the cooktop, discoior the drip pans,
as well as shorten the life of the etement.
• Do not use wire trivets or any kind of heat retarding pad between the pan and
element. Reduce the control setting instead.
• Special cooking equipment without flat bottoms, such as the OrientaI wok, shouldnot
be used on the cooktop. Only use the Jenn-Air wok accessory, Model AO !42, on the
cooktop.
