SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Broil
Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some
smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from
the element. Watch food to prevent burning.
When broiling, always remember to arrange the oven racks
while oven is still cool. Broil with oven door closed.
For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 2
minutes. Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and
cook on the second side. Season and serve
The Broil key controls the broil feature. An optional broil
pan and broil pan insert used together allow grease to drain
away from the high heat of the oven broiler. The oven can
be programmed to broil at any temperature from 400°F to
550°F with a default temperature of 550°F.
To set a broil of 500°F:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan and place
the food on the broiler pan insert. Do not use the broiler
pan without the insert.The exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan
on the rack.
3. Press Broil. 550 will appear in the display.
4. Press 5 0 0. If a lower Broil temperature is desired
(minimum broil temperature setting is 400°F), press the
desired temperature before continuing to Step 5.
5. Press START. The oven will begin to broil. 500° will
appear in the display. Preheat for 2 minutes before
broiling. Broil with oven door closed.
6. Center the broiler pan directly under the broiler element.
Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on
the second side. Season and serve. Always pull the
rack out to the stop position before turning or removing
food.
7. To stop broiling, press OFF.
Always wear oven mitts when broiling. Should an oven
fire occur, close the oven door and turn the oven off. If the
fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or
flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive.
Do not use the pan without the insert. Do not cover the
insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could
ignite.
