Model W2451
Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air wall oven. Your Jenn-Air
convection oven combines the best of two cooking methods, convection and
conventional baking or roasting, in a self-cleaning oven. (Note: Only Models
W2451 and WW2460 have the convection option.)
The Jenn-Air convection oven is actually a conventional oven that circulates
heatedair withinthe oven. Asbothbakeand broilheatingelements cycleonand
off withthe thermostat, afan keeps the heated air circulating around the food.
The constantly recirculating heated air inthe convection oven strips awaythe
layerofcoolerairthat surroundsthefood. Consequently,manyfoodscook more
quickly. Evenlydistributed heatmakesmultiple rackcooking possible. Convec-
tion roasted meats retaintheir natural flavor and juiciness with less shrinkage
than conventional roasting.
In addition to the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking, your oven is
alsoa fine full featured "bakeand broil"oven. You can cook your "old favorite"
recipesas you have inthe past. Theconventional bakeoven also givesyouthe
flexibility of preparing various foods when convection cooking may not be as
beneficial,aswhen cookingfoods incovered casseroles or clay pots. The broil
element is convenient for top browning and oven broiling offoods.
Beforeyou begincooking withyournewoven,pleasetake afew minutes toread
and become familiar with the instructions in this book. On the following pages
youwillfindawealth ofinformationregarding all aspectsofusingyournewoven.
Byfollowing the instructionscarefully, you will beable tofully enjoy and properly
