Surface Cooking
Suggested Control Settings
Cookware Selection
The controls provide an infinite number of settings between
HI and LO. 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.
HI

V3

a boil.

sional 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 recommended because
of hot spots and potential burning of food.

* The LO setting utilizes only the inner burner. However,
when using this setting always light the entire burner
first.
* The LO setting does not automatically relight, if it
should go out during use.
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 considerations. 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.
€ Speciality items such as woks with a support ring. which
restrict air circulation around the burner will cause heat to
build up and may result in damage to the burner grate,
burner or cooktop.
Operating During Power Failure
Use Jenn-Air flat bottom wok accessory, Model AO 142
to prevent this from happening.
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 Life setting.
3. Adjust the flame as desired.
CA UTION: When lighting the surface burners, be sure all
of the Controls are in the OEF position. Strike a match first
and hold it in position before tuming the knob to the Lite
position.
NOTE: The broiler, oven or griddle burners cannot be
turned on during a power failure.
Canning
• When canning, use the HI setting just until the water
comes to a boil or pressure is reached in the pressure
canner. Then, reduce to the lowest flame setting that
maintains the boil or pressure.
• Prolonged use of the HI setting or the use of incorrect
canning utensils will produce excessive heat. Excessive
heat can cause permanent damage to the appliance.
