Broiling Chart -

Broil times are based on a 4 minute preheat.

* When broiling fish, spray broil pan insert with cooking oil. Do not turn fish filets.
** Broiling times are approximate and may vary depending on the thickness of the food. Turn meat halfway through cooking times.

Broil Notes:

• For best results when broiling, use a two-piece broiler

pan.

HI broil is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when

broiling longer cooking foods to allow them to cook to
well done stage without excessive browning.

• Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling

temperature is selected.

• Never cover broiler pan insert with aluminum foil. This

prevents fat from draining to the pan below.

• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly

lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt circuit.

• If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing the

Broil pad and the Autoset pad, the oven will not be set
and the display will return to the previous display.

• HI is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling

longer cooking foods. The lower temperature allows
food to cook to the well done stage without excessive
browning.

• Most foods should be turned halfway through broiling

time.
