BROIL

Broil (Infrared Broil)

The broil burner at the top of the oven heats the 
metal screen until it glows. Heat radiates from 
the GourmetGlo™ infrared broiler located at the 
top of the oven cavity. The distance between the 
foods and the broil elements determines broiling 
speed. For “fast” broiling, food may be as close as 
2 inches (5 cm) to the broil element or on the top 
rack. “Fast” broiling is best for meats where rare to 
medium doneness is desired. Use this setting for 
broiling small and average cuts of meat.

Convection Broil

(Infrared Convection Broil)

The top element operates at full power. This 
function is exactly the same as regular broiling 
with the additional benefit of air circulation by 
the motorized fan in the rear of the oven. Smoke 
is reduced since the airflow also reduces peak 
temperatures on the food. Use this setting for 
broiling thick cuts of meats.
