Use and Care Manual
IN-OVEN BROILING
To light the broiler burner, turn the oven control
knob to the "BROIL" position. When the knob is
in the "BROIL" position and after the oven igniter
glows a bright red, gas is permitted to flow to the
infrared burner. The flame should be blue and
approximately 1/8" thick.
DO NOT TURN FAN
ON WHEN
BROILING!
SAFETY NOTE!
IR burner may
have an initial
bellowing flame!
Do not place
yourself in front of
range! Keep the
door closed for
lighting & broiling!
The infrared oven broiler uses ceramic tiles as heating elements. These tiles begin to glow within a few
seconds of ignition and immediately begin to radiate infrared heat. Once the ceramic tiles reach optimum
temperature, the broiler will cycle on and off to prevent over-heating. The cycle will be approximately two
(2) minutes on and approximately forty-five (45) seconds off. This will not affect your broiling results. This
“instant” heating capability makes preheating the infrared broiler unnecessary. If you desire, to increase
browning, or for very thin foods, you may preheat the broiler for 5 to 8 minutes before use.
NOTE: You cannot use the broiler burner and the bake burner at the same time. When one is
turned on, the other cannot be activated. Do not use the convection feature in the broil mode.
Broiling Tips
υ Defrost all foods before broiling.
υ Set a timer for the minimum time in which to
check the food.
υ Meats should be at least one inch thick to
avoid overcooking.
υ Use a 2-piece broiling pan. DO NOT use
aluminum foil.
υ When top-browning, use metal or glass-
ceramic bakeware.
υ Adjust the oven rack position according to the
thickness of the food . . . thicker foods should
be placed on a lower rack, further from the
broiler burner.
Clean-Up
The oven interior in your unit is coated with the same porcelain enamel described above and may be
cleaned by the same methods. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL TO CLEAN OR ANY OTHER
ABRASIVE!!! THIS TYPE OF CLEANING WILL SCRATCH THE PORCELAIN!
Baked on spills may be loosened with a nylon pad and household cleaner.
CAUTION: Never use ammonia in an oven that is warmer than room temperature. Be sure the area is
well ventilated. Refer to manufacturers’ instructions on household cleaners.
