SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

NOTE

To assure your electronic controls safety when broiling with

the oven door in broil position, an high speed cooling fan

will blow air through the trims above the door(s).

SETTING BROIL

This mode is best for meats, fi sh and poultry up to 1”

thick. Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat

by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. The

high heat cooks quickly and gives a rich, brown outer

appearance. The BROIL pad controls the Broil feature. An

optional Searing Grill, Broiler Pan and Insert are available

via the enclosed accessories brochure (Figure 2 & 3). The

optional broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow

dripping grease to drain and be kept 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.
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 the broiler pan and its cover when broiling.

It allows the dripping grease to be kept away from the

high heat of the broil element (see Figure 2).

• For best broiling results, broil with the oven door in the

broil stop position (see Figure 1).

• If using a Searing Grill (available by mail order), preheat

the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat.

DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT

cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed

grease could catch fi re.

To set a Broil of 500°F:

1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place

the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler

pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert

with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan

on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly

under the broiler element. Make sure the oven door

is in the broil stop position (See Figure 1).

3. Preheat for 2 minutes before broiling.

4. Press BROIL. “550” will appear in the display.

5. 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.

6. Press START. The oven will begin to broil. “500°” will

appear in the display.

7. Broil on one side until

food is browned; turn

and cook on the second

side. Season and serve.

Note: Always pull the

rack out to the stop

position before turning

or removing food.

8. To stop broiling press

CANCEL.
