Use & Care
Broil
For optimal results, preheat for five minutes with the door
closed and use a pan designed for broiling. Oven door should
be open to the broil stop position (about 4 inches) when
broiling.
To set Broil:
1. Place the oven rack in the proper rack position (see
Broiling Chart).
2. Press the Broil pad.
3. Select HIGH – 550° F for high broil.
OR
Select LOW – 450° F for low broil.
• The oven has a variable broil feature which means that
a lower broil temperature can be selected (300°-550° F).
To select a lower temperature, press the appropriate
number pads. Press Enter pad to set the lower
temperature.
4. Preheat the oven for five minutes.
5. Place food in the oven and close the door to the broil stop
position.
6. Press the CANCEL pad when broiling
is done.
Notes:
• See Broiling Chart for foods and broiling times.
• If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing the Broil
pad, Quickset pads, or number pads, the oven will not be
set and the display will return to the previous display.
• HIGH is used for most broiling. Use a lower broil
temperature when broiling longer-cooking foods. The
lower temperature allows food to cook to the well done
stage without excessive browning.
• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly
lighter if the appliance is installed on a 208 volt circuit.
• Food should be turned halfway through broiling time.
• Broil times may be longer when lower broiling
temperatures are selected.
Notes:
• For best results, use rack position 2 or 3 when using the
Rapid Preheat option.
• For optimum baking and browning results, Rapid Preheat
is not recommended when baking on multiple racks.
