BROIL
The Broil mode uses intense heat from the upper heating element to sear
foods. This mode works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly cut
vegetables, and is ideal for toasting, melting cheese, browning and searing
surface. Food should be placed near the upper racks, and should not be
cooked for too long on each side of the food. It is not necessary to preheat
when using this mode.
Setting the Broil Mode
1. Press BROIL. The default broil setting is High Broil.
High Broil temperature: 590°F (310°C)
Low Broil temperature: 550°F (288°C)
2. (Optional) Press BROIL again to select Low Broil if desired.
3. Press START/ENTER. The oven turns on and starts preheating.
4. Allow the oven preheat for approximately 5 minutes before placing the
food in the oven.
5. Press CLEAR/OFF when cooking is finished, and remove the food from the
oven.
NOTE:
The range is designed for closed-door broiling. Broil mode will not
operate with the oven door open.
Opening the door turns off the broil heating element during broiling. If
the door is left open, an alert will sound. If the door is not closed, the
Broil mode will ultimately cancel itself.
The broil heating element is very powerful. Follow recipe directions and
monitor food closely to reduce risk of burning food.
Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat and grease drainage.
This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can cause a grease fire.
Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with aluminum foil. Doing so will
cause a fire.
