SETTING CONVECTION BROIL
Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fi sh and poultry. The
Convection Broiling gently browns the exterior and seals in the
juices. Convection broiling uses the broil element and a fan to
circulate the oven’s heat evenly and continuously within the
oven. The oven can be programmed for Convection Broiling at
any temperature between 300°F to 550°F (204°C to 288°C)
with a default temperature of 550°F.
Convection Broiling Tips:
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 5
minutes.
• Broil one side until the 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.
• Always use a broiler pan and its grid when broiling
(available by mail order). 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 (available
by mail order). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert
with foil. The exposed grease could catch fi re.
• If using a Searing Grill (available by mail order),
preheat the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing
your meat.
• Convection broiling is generally faster than
conventional broiling. Check for doneness at the
minimum recommended time.

on the fi re or use a fi re extinguisher. DO NOT put water
or fl our on the fi re. Flour may be explosive and water can
