User Manual Jenn-Air JGS9900CDS Cooktop

COOKTOP USE

Cooktop Controls

IMPORTANT: Your range is factory-set for use with Natural gas. If you wish to use LP gas, an LP Gas Conversion Kit is included with your new range. See the “Gas Conversions” section of the Installation Instructions for details on making this conversion.

Electric igniters automatically light the surface burners when control knobs are turned on.

Before setting a control knob, place filled cookware on the grate. Do not operate a burner while using empty cookware or without any cookware on the grate.

NOTE: Visually check that the burner has lit. If the burner does not ignite, listen for a clicking sound. If you do not hear the igniter click, turn the burner off. Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown household fuse.

Check that the control knob is pressed completely down on the valve shaft. If the spark igniter still does not operate, call a trained repair specialist.

To Set:

  1. Push in and turn knob counterclockwise to light the burner. All four surface burners will click. Only the burner that has been turned on will produce a flame. IMPORTANT: Each surface burner is equipped to provide automatic reignition if the flame should somehow get blown out.
  2. Turn knob anywhere between HIGH and LOW. Use the following chart as a guide when setting heat levels.

REMEMBER: When range is in use or (on some models) during the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area may become hot.

Cooktop Burners

High Performance Burner

There is 1 high speed burner on the cooktop, located in the right front position. This burner offers higher speed cooking that can be used to quickly bring water to a boil and for large-quantity cooking.

Simmer Burners

Simmer burners are located in the left or right rear positions. The simmer burner offers a lower Btu/h flame for delicate sauces or melting chocolate.

Dual Ring Burner

There is 1 dual ring burner on the cooktop, located in the left front position. To operate, push in on the control knob and turn counterclockwise to light the burner. Continue turning until the desired setting is reached. The lighting sequence is: inner burner on High, then inner burner on Low, then both rings on High, then both rings on Low.

Power Failure

Surface Burners

In case of prolonged power failure, the surface burners can be lit manually. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn knob counterclockwise to ignite. After burner lights, turn knob to desired setting.

Sealed Surface Burners

IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.

Burner cap: Always keep the burner cap in place when using a surface burner. A clean burner cap will help avoid poor ignition and uneven flames. Always clean the burner cap after a spillover and routinely remove and clean the caps according to the "General Cleaning” section.

Gas tube opening: Gas must flow freely throughout the gas tube opening for the burner to light properly. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the gas tube opening. Keep spillovers out of the gas tube by always using a burner cap.

Burner ports: Check burner flames occasionally for proper size and shape as shown in the previous illustration. A good flame is blue in color, not yellow. Keep this area free of soil and do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other material to enter the burner ports.

To Clean:

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven and cooktop are cool. Do not use oven cleaners, bleach or rust removers.

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner base and clean according to “General Cleaning” section.
2. Clean the gas tube opening with a damp cloth.
3. Clean clogged burner ports with a straight pin as shown. Do not enlarge or distort the port. Do not use a wooden toothpick. If the burner needs to be adjusted, contact a trained repair specialist.

4. Replace the burner cap, making sure the alignment pins are properly aligned with the burner cap.

5. Turn on the burner. If the burner does not light, check cap alignment. If the burner still does not light, do not service the sealed burner yourself. Contact a trained repair specialist.

Downdraft Ventilation System

The built-in downdraft ventilation system removes cooking vapors, odors and smoke from foods prepared on the cooktop.

IMPORTANT: For optimal performance, operate downdraft ventilation system with the filter properly installed.

To avoid the buildup of grease, the filter should be cleaned often.
For more information on proper filter placement and cleaning, see "Downdraft Ventilation System” in the “General Cleaning” section.

To Use:

The ventilation fan can be set to Low, High or Off.
Press VENT FAN once for Low, a second time for High, and a third time to turn the fan Off.

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

  • Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
  • Do not place canner on 2 surface burners at the same time.
  • For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

Cookware

IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface cooking area, element or surface burner.

Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the same characteristics as its base material. For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material characteristics.

Power Failure

Oven Burners

Your range is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will not operate during a power failure.
A lighted match will not light the oven bake or broil burner. No attempt should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.

Aluminum Foil

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.

  • On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover the oven bottom vents.
  • For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil because air must be able to move freely.
  • To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is at least 1⁄2" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned up at the edges.

Positioning Racks and Bakeware

IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or bottom.

Racks

  • Depending on your model, 2 or 3 standard flat racks are included.
  • Position racks before turning on the oven.
  • Do not position racks with bakeware on them.
  • Make sure racks are level.

To Remove Oven Racks:

To Replace Oven Racks:

Place rack on the rack support in the oven. Tilt the front edge up slightly, and slide rack back until it clears the stop position. Lower front and slide back into the oven.

Rack Positions

Traditional Cooking

Multiple Rack Cooking

Two racks: Use rack positions 2 and 4.

Convection Cooking (on some models)

Multiple Rack Convection Cooking

Three racks (on some models): Use rack positions 1, 3 and 5.

NOTE: When convect baking on 2 or 3 racks, check foods at the minimum suggested time to avoid overbrowning or overcooking.

Baking Layer Cakes on Two Racks

For best results when baking cakes on 2 racks with or without convection (on some models), use racks 2 and 4. Place the cakes on the rack as shown.

BAKEWARE

To cook food evenly, hot air must be able to circulate. Allow cm) of space around bakeware and oven walls. Use the following chart as a guide.

Bakeware

The bakeware material affects cooking results. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations and use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe. Use the following chart as a guide.

Meat Thermometer

On models without a temperature probe, use a meat thermometer to determine whether meat, poultry and fish are cooked to the desired degree of doneness. The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with this appliance. Follow manufacturer's directions for using a meat thermometer.

Oven Vent

The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn near the oven vent.

Bake

The BAKE function is ideal for baking, roasting or heating foods.

To Bake:

Before baking, position racks according to the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. For baking, allow the range to preheat before placing food in the oven.

  1. Press BAKE.
  2. Select the oven temperature using the Quickset pads. OR Enter the desired temperature using the number pads. The temperature can be set from 170°F (80°C) to 550°F (288°C) in in Celsius) increments.
  3. Press ENTER to set. After 3 seconds, the oven will begin to preheat. “BAKE” and " PREHEAT” will appear in the display along with “100°” in Celsius) or the actual oven temperature, whichever is higher. The temperature in the display will increase in 1° increments until the oven reaches the preset temperature. Allow about minutes for the oven to preheat. When the oven is preheated, the oven will beep and " PREHEAT” will disappear from the display. To change the oven temperature during cooking, press BAKE and select a displayed temperature or use the number pads to enter the desired temperature.
  4. Press CANCEL when finished cooking. Remove food from the oven.

Broil

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the temperature when broiling allows more precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

  • For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
  • If you would like to purchase a Premium Broil Pan and Roasting Rack, one may be ordered. See “Assistance or "Service” section to order. Ask for Part Number W10123240.
  • For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
  • Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid curling.
  • Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
  • After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. Preheat broil for about 5 minutes. Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.

To Broil:

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.

  1. Press BROIL.
  2. " HIGH” and “LOW” will be displayed. Use the Quickset pads to select HIGH (550°F/290°C) for normal broiling or LOW (450°F/230°C) for low-temperature broiling. To select a broil temperature other than High or Low, enter the desired temperature (300°F/149°C to 550°F/288°C) using the number pads and press ENTER.
  3. Press CANCEL when finished.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3" (7.0 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the "Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

Convection Cooking (on some models)

In a convection oven, the fan-circulated hot air continually distributes heat more evenly than the natural movement of air in a standard thermal oven. This movement of hot air helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the oven, cooking foods more evenly, crisping surfaces while sealing in moisture and yielding crustier breads.

Most foods can be cooked by lowering cooking temperatures F to 50°F (14°C to 28°C), and cooking time can be shortened by as much as 30 percent, especially for large turkeys and roasts.

  • It is important not to cover foods with lids or aluminum foil so that surface areas remain exposed to the circulating air, allowing browning and crisping.
  • Keep heat loss to a minimum by opening the oven door only when necessary.
  • Choose cookie sheets without sides and roasting pans with lower sides to allow air to move freely around the food.
  • Test baked goods for doneness a few minutes before the minimum cooking time with a method such as using a toothpick.

  • Use a meat thermometer or the temperature probe (on some models) to determine the doneness of meats and poultry.

Convect Bake (on some models)

Convect Bake can be used to bake and cook foods on single or multiple racks. It is helpful to stagger items on the racks to allow a more even flow of heat. If the oven is full, extra cooking time may be needed.
When cooking an oven meal with several different types of foods, be sure to select recipes that require similar temperatures.
Cookware should sit in the oven with at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space between the cookware and the sides of the oven.
Allow the range to preheat before placing food in the oven.
During convection baking preheat, the broil burners and the bake burner all heat the oven cavity. After preheat, the convection burner will cycle on and off in intervals to maintain oven temperature, while the fan constantly circulates the hot air.
If the oven door is opened during convection baking or preheating, the convection burner and fan will turn off immediately. They will come back on once the door is closed.
  • Reduce recipe temperature 25°F (14°C). The cook time may need to be reduced also.

To Convect Bake:

Before convection baking, position racks according to the Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

  1. Press CONVECT.
  2. Select CNVT BAKE using the left Quickset pad.
  3. Select the oven temperature using the Quickset pads. OR Press the number pads to enter a temperature. The temperature can be set between 195°F and 550°F (91°C and (77C) in 5° increments when Auto Convect is on. If Auto Convect is off, temperature can be set from 170°F (77°C).

DRYING GUIDE CHART

  • The length of drying times vary due to water and sugar content of food, size of food pieces, amount of food being dried, humidity in the air.
  • Check foods at the minimum drying time. Dry longer if necessary.
  • Fruits that turn brown when exposed to air should be treated with an antioxidant. Try one of the following methods:
  1. Dip fruit in a mixture of 3 tbs (44.4 mL) lemon juice to qt (0.95 L) of cool water.
  2. Soak fruit in a solution of 1 tsp (4.9 mL) ascorbic acid or commercial antioxidant to 1 qt (0.95 L) of cold water.
  • Most fruits and vegetables dry well and retain their color when dried at 140°F (60°C). Meat and jerky should be dried between 145F and 150°F (63°C and 65°C). For optimal flavor, dry herbs at 100°F (38°C), however, at this lower temperature expect extended drying times of up to 8 hours.
  • Foods may drip during the drying process. After drying high acid or sugary foods, clean the oven bottom with soap and water. The porcelain oven finish may discolor if acidic or sugary food soils are not wiped up prior to high heat or a self-cleaning cycle.
  • More than one rack of food may be dried at the same time. However, additional drying time is needed.

RANGE CARE

Self-Cleaning Cycle (on some models)

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-ventilated room.
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. Depending on your model, see "Oven Vent” or “Oven Vents” section.
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.

Prepare Oven:

  • Remove the broiler pan, grid, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.
  • Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See “General Cleaning” section for more information.
  • Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
  • Hand clean inside door edge and the 11⁄2" (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.
  • Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.

Prepare Cooktop:

  • Remove plastic items from the cooktop because they may melt.

NOTE: Oven temperature must be below 400°F (205°C) to program a clean cycle.

How the Cycle Works

IMPORTANT: The heating and cooling of porcelain on steel in the oven may result in discoloring, loss of gloss, hairline cracks and popping sounds.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
Suggested clean times are 2 hours for light soil and between hours and 4 hours for average to heavy soil.
Once the oven has completely cooled, remove ash with a damp cloth. Do not wipe down any of the inside surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. To avoid breaking the glass, do not apply a cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has completely cooled.
