MODEL WW27110
For Microwave Oven, refer to Use andCare Manual packed in Microwave Oven,

Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air wall oven. Your Jenn-Air
convection oven combines thebest of four cooking methods: conventional
baking or roasting, convection baking, convection roasting and broiling in a
self-cleaning oven.(Note: OnlyModelsW27200,WM27260andWW27210
have the convection option.)
The Jenn-Air convection oven isactually aconventional oven that circulates
heated air within the oven. As both bake and broil heating elements cycle on
and offwith the thermostat, a fan keepsthe heated aircirculating around the
food. The constantly recirculating heated air in the convection oven strips
away the_ayerofcooler air that surrounds thefood. Consequently, many
foods cook more quickly.Evenly distributed heat makes multiple rack
cooking possible. Convection roasted meats retain their natural flavor and
juiciness with less shrinkagethan conventional roasting.
Inaddition to the many exclusive benefits of convection cooking, your Jenn-
Air oven isalso afine full featured conventional bake and broil oven. You can
cook your "old favorite" recipes as you have in the past. The conventional
bake oven also gives you the flexibility of preparing various foods when
convection cooking may not be as beneficial, as when cooking foods in
covered casseroles or clay pots. Thebroil element is convenient for top
browning and oven broiling of foods.
Beforeyou begin cookingwith your newoven, pleasetake afewminutes to
read and become familiar with the instructions in this book. On the following
pages you will find awealth of information regarding all aspects of using your
new oven.By following the instructions carefully, you will be able to fully
enjoyand properly maintain your oven and achieve excellent results with the
food you prepare.
Should you have any questions about using your Jenn-Air oven, write to us.
Be sure to provide the model number.

Forbestresults,bakefoodsononerackat atimeas describedinthismanual.However,
very good resultscan beobtained when baking quantities of foods on multipleracks.
Quantity cooking provides both time and energy savings.
Convec_ Bake is suggested for most multiplerack cooking, especially threerack

cooking,the conventionalbake ovenprovidesvery good baking resultsespecially when
pans can be staggered, such as with layer cakesand fresh pies.
Many foods can be prepared on three racks at the same time. These arejust a few
examples: cookies, cupcakes, rons, biscuits, muffins, pies, pizzas, appetizers, and
snack foods.
To obtainthe best resultsinmultiplerack cooking, follow thesesuggestions:
