Your oven is equipped with an electric grill.
The
extremel
y
high and direct temperature of the grill
makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and
roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender.
The grill is also highl
y
recommended for dishes that
require a high surface temperature: beef steaks, veal,
rib steak, fillets, hamburgers etc...
Some examples of how the grill ma
y
be used are
included in the Practical Cooking Advice section.
When using the grill, the oven door must be kept
shut.
Never put objects directl
y
on the bottom of the oven -
this could result in damage to the enamel coating.
