Broiling is a quick and flavorful way to prepare many foods, including steaks, chicken, chops, hamburgers and fish. Broiling in the oven
is completed with the oven door completely shut. It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled
flavor. The broil temperature may be adjusted in 5˚F increments from 135˚F up to the maximum setting of “HI”. The “HI” setting is equivalent
to 555˚F.
Follow these steps to operate the oven in Standard Broil or Convection Broil modes:
1. Close the door tightly.
2. Press the “BROIL” or “CONVECTION BROIL” pad.
3. Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” or “–” pad and the default temperature setting “HI” will be
displayed. “HI” is equivalent to 555˚F.
4. If a temperature other than “HI” is desired, press the “TIME•TEMP” “–” pad to reduce the temperature. Six seconds after setting the
temperature, the “ON” indicator will light up in the clock display, the broiler element will begin heating, and the cooling fan will turn on.
5. It is recommended that the user set the Minute Timer(s) to time the broiling process.
6.. When the Minute Timer expires and/or the food is cooked, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad to turn off the oven. The cooling fan
will continue to run for 30 to 45 minutes depending upon the length and temperature of the broiling process.
BROILING TIPS
1. Always use a broiler pan and grill to provide drainage for excess fat and grease. This will reduce spatter, smoke and flare-ups.
2. Pre-heat the broiler for 10 minutes prior to cooking.
3.. Begin with a room temperature broiler pan for even cooking.
4. Use tongs or a spatula to turn and remove meats. Never pierce meat with a fork as this allows juices to escape.
5. Broil food on the first side for slightly more than half of the recommended time, then season and turn. Season the second side just
before removing.
6. To prevent sticking, lightly grease the broiler grill. Excess grease will result in heavy smoke. For easier cleaning, remove the broiler pan
and grill when the food is removed. While the pan and grill are still warm, soak the pan and grill in a solution of hot water and dishwashing
liquid, then scrub them with an abrasive pad.
7. To prevent sticking, lightly grease the broiler grill. Excess grease will result in heavy smoke.

Dehydrating/Defrosting
Broiling
The oven can be used to dehydrate or defrost foods at low heat settings in “Pure Convection™” mode.
Follow these steps to dehydrate or defrost foods:
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper height(s).
2. Place the food onto the center of the oven rack. (For dehydrating, prepare food as recommended then place food onto a drying rack.)
3. Press the “PURE CONVECTION™” pad.
4. Set the temperature to 135˚F. This is the minimum temperature that can be set. (For dehydrating, a higher temperature setting may be
required. Follow the recommended temperature for the type of food being prepared.)
5. It is recommended that the user set the Minute Timer(s) to time the process.
Timed/Delayed Timed Cooking
DELAYED TIMED COOKING TIPS
1. Do not use foods containing baking powder or yeast in Delay Timed Cooking. These foods will not rise properly.
2. Remember that “COOK TIME” refers to the length of the cooking cycle. It does not refer to the start time!
3. The time required to preheat the oven must be included in the “COOK TIME.” Thus, the “COOK TIME” should be increased by about
8 to 12 minutes depending upon the temperature setting. The top element does not come on to preheat in the Delay Mode, so you
will not pre-maturely brown foods.
