Page: 3 / 64

■

Have your cooktop installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer, in
accordance with the Installation
Instructions. Any adjustment and service
should be performed only by qualified gas
cooktop installers or service technicians.

■

Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
service should be referred to a qualified
technician.

■

If cooktop is located near a window, do not
hang long curtains that could blow over
the top burners and create a fire hazard.

■

Plug your cooktop into a 120-volt
grounded outlet only. Do not remove the
round grounding prong from the plug. If
in doubt about the grounding of the home
electrical system, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have an
ungrounded outlet replaced with a
properly grounded, three-prong outlet in
accordance with the National Electrical
Code. Do not use an extension cord with
this appliance.

■

Let the burner grates and other surfaces
cool before touching them or leaving them
where children can reach them.

■

Be sure all packaging materials are
removed from the cooktop before
operating it to prevent fire or smoke
damage should the packaging material
ignite.

■

Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a cooktop is hot or in operation.
They could be seriously burned.

■

Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the cooktop.

■

Be sure your cooktop is correctly adjusted
by a qualified service technician or installer
for the type of gas (natural or LP) which is
to be used. Your cooktop can be converted
for use with either type of gas. See LP
conversion instructions packed with your
cooktop. Model JGP319 is factory adjusted
for LP gas operation.

■

WARNING:

This conversion kit

must be installed by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and all codes
and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious injury
or property damage. The qualified agency
performing this work assumes
responsibility for the conversion.

■

CAUTION:

Items of interest to

children should not be stored in cabinets
above a cooktop—children climbing on
the cooktop to reach items could be
seriously injured.

■

Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your cooktop.

■

Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your cooktop.

■

Never wear loose fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance.
Be careful when reaching for items stored
in cabinets over the cooktop. Flammable
material could be ignited if brought in
contact with flame or hot oven surfaces
and may cause severe burns.
