Broiler Operation
Note: Door must be closed during broiling operation.
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat directly under the infrared broiler in the oven. Broiling in the oven is
accomplished with the oven door closed. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a
broiled flavor.
Preheating
Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks (remove any broiler pan before preheating with the infrared broiler, foods
will stick on hot metal). To preheat, turn the “Oven” selector knob to the “Broil” position. Wait for the burner to become
hot, approximately 2 minutes.
Preheating is not necessary when broiling meat well-done.
Top Broil
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.
Setting Broil
The “Oven” selector knob controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even
coverage. The Broil feature temperature is 500°F (260°C).
A broil pan and insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler.
DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch
fire.
To set the oven to Broil:
u
Place a broiler pan insert on a broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert.
v
Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan and position
directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first, position the broiler pan after the broil burner is
preheated.
w
Turn selector knob to Broil.
The oven indicator light will remain on until the selector knob is turned to the off position or the temperature control cycles
off.
Broil
The intense heat from the upper heating element is used to cook thin slices of meat, poultry and fish. The heating element
coils turns red when the oven control knob is set to BROIL.
Place food in the recommended rack position after the oven has completed the PREHEAT cycle. Refer to recipes or
packaging for broiling instructions and cook times.
Rotate the Oven Temperature Control Knob to the BROIL position. The Oven Cycle Light shall turn on to indicate oven is in
operation. The upper heating elements is energized to maintain 550˚F.
Keep the oven door closed. Use the oven light to see inside of oven
