JX3™ Downdraft Ventilation System
C
A. Removable grease filter
B. Downdraft grate
C. Filter support tray (non-removable)
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.
The filter should always be placed at an angle. As you face the
front of the cooktop, the top of the filter should rest against the
right side of the vent opening. The bottom of the filter should rest
against the left side of the vent chamber at the bottom.
If the filter is flat against the fan wall, ventilation effectiveness will
be reduced.
To Use:
Turn vent knob to desired speed: HI, LO, or to the midpoint
between Hi and Lo for Medium. Turn vent fan knob to OFF
when finished cooking or when the cooktop is not in use.
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.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
