fuels. Properly adjusted burners will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances
can also be minimized by properly venting the burners
to the outdoors.
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.
Electrical Connection
Appliances which require electrical
power are equipped with a three-prong
grounding plug
which must be
plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-hole 120 volt
electrical outlet.
Always disconnect power to appliance before servicing.
The three-prong grounding plug offers protection
against shock hazards.
DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE
THE THIRD GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE
POWER CORD PLUG.
If an ungrounded, two-hole or other type electrical
outlet is encountered,
it is the personal responsibility
of the appliance owner to have the outlet replaced
with a properly grounded three-hole electrical
outlet.
Jenn-Air’s ventilation system is designed to capture
both cooking fumes and smoke from the cooktop
surface. If the system does not, these 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’.
• No more than three 90 ° elbows should be used.
Distance between elbows should be at least 18”.
• Recommended Jenn-Air wall cap MUST be used.
Make sure damper moves freely when ventilation
system is operating.
• There should be a minimum clearance of 6” for
cooktop installed near a side wall.
• There should be a minimum clearance of 12” between
the bottom of the wall cap and the ground.
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 responsi-
bility 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.
Ducting Information
Note: Use 5” diameter round ducting if the duct
length is 10' or less.
