SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Convection Broil
Use convection broil to cook thicker cuts of meat,
fish, and poultry that require direct exposure to
radiant heat and the convection fan for optimum
browning results. Convection broil gently browns
the exterior and seals in the juices. It uses the broil
element and a fan to circulate the oven’s heat
evenly and continuously within the oven.
The convection fan will begin rotating once
convection broil has been activated.
Convection Broiling Tips:
• Always pull the rack out to the stop position
before turning or removing food.
• Always broil or convection broil with the oven
door closed.
• For optimum results, preheat the broil element
for 2-to-5 minutes before adding food.
• Broil one side until the food is browned; turn
and cook on the second side. Season and serve.
• Always use the broiler pan and its insert when
broiling, if included. It allows the dripping
grease to be kept away from the high heat of
the broil element.
• Do not use the broil pan without the insert.
Do not cover the broil pan insert with foil. The
exposed grease could catch fire. Do not use the
roasting rack when broiling.
• Since convection broil cooks food quickly,
reduce the cook time by 25% from the
recommended cook time of your recipe (check
the food at this time). If necessary, increase
cook time until the desired doneness is
obtained.

To set convection broil:
WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door closed
and turn o the oven. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.
Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may
be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to
spread and cause personal injury.
The broiler pan and the insert allow grease to
drain and be kept away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not use the pan without the insert.
Do not cover the insert with aluminum foil; the
exposed grease could ignite.
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
racks, and cooktop will become very hot which
can cause burns.
Be aware that the convection fan will continue to
run after the door is opened. This is normal. Use
caution when reaching inside of the oven. Hot air
will be pushed out of the appliance.
1. Arrange the oven rack while oven is still cool.
Turn the oven mode knob to the conv broil
position.
2. Turn the oven temp knob to the desired
temperature position. For optimum results,
preheat broil for 2-to-5 minutes before adding
food.
3. Place the insert on the broil pan (if equipped),
then place the food on the broil pan insert
(if using a broiler pan and insert). To purchase a
broiling pan and insert, visit frigidaire.com
4. Place the broiler pan and insert on the oven
rack. Center the broiler pan directly under the
broiler element. Broil on one side until food is
browned.
5. Turn and broil food on the second side.
6. To cancel the broiling function, turn the oven
mode and oven temp knobs to the OFF
positions.
NOTE
Always pull the oven rack out to the stop position
before turning or removing food.
