OPERATION
Broil
Your oven is designed for closed-door broiling. Broil
uses an intense heat radiation from the upper gas
burner.
The Broil function works best when broiling thin,
tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry or fish.
CAUTIOn
•
Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. The oil
can cause a grease fire.
•
Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with
aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.
•
Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat
and grease drainage. This will help to reduce
splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
•
Never use a broiler pan that is not thoroughly
cleaned and at room temperature. If your
broiler pan is damaged, warped, or has heavy
permanent soiling, consider replacing it to
reduce the amount of smoke you experience
during broiling.
nOTE
•
Use Lo
broil to broil foods such as poultry and
thick cuts of meat.
•
Remove the pan from the oven to cool down for
easy cleaning.
•
For best results, use a pan designed for
broiling, as shown below. The broiler pan will
catch grease spills and the grid will help prevent
grease splatters.
