Broiling
Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil
element of the oven.
The high heat cooks quickly and gives a rich, brown outer appearance. Broil mode
is best for meats, fish, and poultry up to 1" thick.
How to set the oven for broiling

Touch
Broil
once for Hi or twice for Lo.
Use Lo to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.

NOTE
•
This oven is designed for CLOSED DOOR broiling. The oven door must be
closed during broiling.
•
If you leave the oven door open for more than 2 minutes when the oven is on,
all heating elements will shut off automatically.
•
When you have finished cooking, the cooling fan will continue to run until the
oven has cooled down.
•
If you are using an oven thermometer in the oven cavity, the temperature
registered by the thermometer may differ from the actual set oven
temperature.
CAUTION
Always broil with the oven door closed.
Use care when opening the door. Let hot air
or steam escape before you remove food
from or put food into the oven.
Broiling recommendation guide
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature, and your doneness preference
will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.
Always use a broiler pan and its grid when broiling. Always preheat the oven for
5 minutes before broiling.
