To use the Infrared Broiler:
1. Arrange the oven racks in the desired position.
2. Center food on cold broiler pan and grid supplied with your oven.
Place broiler pan in oven and close the door.
3. Set the Temperature Control dial to BROIL.
Broiling Tips
•Always use a broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to
provide drainage of excess liquid and fat away from the cooking
surface to help prevent spatter, smoke and fire.
•Place broiler pan with food in recommended rack position.
•To keep meat from curling, slit fatty edge.
•Brush chicken and fish with butter several times as they broil to
prevent drying out. To prevent sticking, lightly grease broiler grid.
•Broil on first side for slightly more than half the recommended time,
season and turn. Season second side just before removing.
•Always pull rack out to stop position before turning or removing food.
•Use tongs or a spatula to turn meats. Never pierce meat with a fork
as this allows the juices to escape.
•Remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food.
Drippings will bake onto the pan if it is left in the heated oven after
broiling. While pan is hot, place damp paper towel over grid. Drizzle
with liquid dishwashing detergent and pour water over grid. This will
make cleaning of the pan easier, or the broiler pan can be lined with
aluminum foil to make cleaning easier. Be sure the foil extends up the
side of the pan. Although it is not recommended, the grid can also
be covered with foil. Be sure to slit openings to conform with the
openings in the grid so melted fat can drain through to prevent
spattering, smoking or possibility of grease fire.

Infrared Conventional Broiling
The broiler is an in-the-oven infrared broiler design-certified for
residential use. The method preferred by professional cooks to sear in
the nutrition, flavors, and juices of meat, poultry, and fish is now possible
in the home. The infrared broiler cooks up to 50% faster than other
methods. Its intense, penetrating heat produces a more attractive,
professional finish. The broil burner heats the metal screen located at the
top of the oven until it glows. The glowing screen produces the infrared
heat, searing the outside of broiled food and sealing in the juices.
Broiling is a dry-heat cooking method using direct or indirect radiant
heat. It is used for small individualized cuts such as steaks, chops, and
patties. Broiling is most successful for cuts 1-2 inches (2.54-5.1 cm) thick.
Conventional broiling is also more suitable for flat pieces of meat.
Infrared Convection Broiling
Convection broiling has the advantage of broiling food slightly quicker
than conventional. Convection broiling of meats produces better
results especially for extra thick cuts. The meat sears on the outside
and retains more juices and natural flavor inside with less shrinkage.
Rack Positions:
The broiler uses infrared heat rays to help cook the food. Because
these rays can travel only in straight lines, the effective cooking area of
the broiler is reduced when using the higher rack positions. At high
rack positions, the rays cannot
reach all corners of the broiler
grid, so larger pieces of meat
might not broil sufficiently at
the outer edges. Position 6 is
the closest to the broiler and
position 1 is the closest to the
oven bottom. The effective
cooking areas on the broiler
grid for each rack position are
as follows:
15%
20%
35%
45%
65%
95%
