Helpful baking hints
To obtain best performance from this toaster-oven-broiler:
• Do not overfill the oven. Whenever possible, place foods in center of oven.
• Avoid opening the door too frequently to prevent heat loss.
• Foil may be used to cover the baking dish or pan. Be sure the ends of foil are tucked closely against
the edge of the baking dish/pan.
3) INSTRUCTIONS FOR BROILING
Always use the multi-purpose oven tray with the wire rack for broiling. No preheating of the broiler
is necessary.
Do not leave the broiler unattended when in use. Do not cover the oven wire rack with foil. This
prevents fat and oils from draining, causing spatter and smoking, and also restricts air circulation for
proper ventilation.
Broiling
1. Place the accessories as follows:
•
If the oven is not provided with the broiler rack
-
Insert the wire rack in the upper slot (please see page 3).
-
Place the multi-purpose oven tray directly on the lower heating
element reflector (please see page 3).
-
Put the food to be broiled on the wire rack.
•
If the oven is provided with the broiler rack
- Put the broiling rack inside the multi-purpose oven tray, as shown
in figure
- Place the food to be broiled on the broiling rack.
- Insert the wire rack in the lower slot (please see page 3) and then
put the broiling assembly with the food on the wire rack.
Always allow 1" between food and upper heating element.
In order to reduce bad smell, smoke and spattering: before starting the broiling process, pour half
glass of water in the multi-purpose oven tray.
2. Turn the upper knob clockwise to “BROIL”.
3. Turn the lower knob counterclockwise to "OVEN/BROIL”.
4.
When broiling is finished, turn the lower knob to “Off” and the upper knob to position
"
".
Care should be taken when removing the oven tray and disposing of the grease collected while
broiling.
Note
: While smoke is an inherent characteristic of good broiling, the following tips should eliminate
or greatly reduce smoking:
• Trim excess fat from meat and score the edges to prevent curling.
• For best results, thaw frozen meats before broiling. These two precautions will reduce or eliminate
smoke from the broiler.
• Placing the food on the rack allows the juices and fat to drip into the oven tray and decreases
spattering while broiling (in particular if you have poured half glass of water).
• If frozen steaks and chops are broiled, allow 1
1
/
2
to 2 times the required broiling time as that
required for unfrozen meat.
• Remove grease from the tray and wash the tray and rack after use.
• The broiler should be cleaned inside after each use. Too much grease accumulation causes
smoking. Use any non-abrasive cleaner and hot water.
