Broiling and Custom Broiling
BROILER
The broiler is located below the oven door. The broiler pan and
grid roll out for easy access. Always broil with the broiler and
oven doors closed.
■
Do not step on or apply weight to the broiler door while it is
open.
■
Do not preheat broiler before use. Completely close broiler
door during broiling.
■
Do not use broiler drawer for storage.
■
Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance.
It is designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and
smoke.
■
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier
cleaning.
■
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on
the edges to prevent curling.
■
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
To Broil:
1.
Open the broiler door and roll out the broiler pan and grid.
2.
Place the broiler pan and grid so grease can drain down into
the lower part of the broiler pan.
3.
Place food on broiler pan. Then place the pan on the broiler
rack and close the broiler door.
4.
Touch CUSTOM BROIL.
The Broil indicator light will light up.
5.
Touch START/ENTER.
The On and Temp indicator lights will light up. The
temperature setting can be changed at any time during
broiling. If broiling while the Timer is counting down, the set
broiling temperature can be displayed for 5 seconds by
touching CUSTOM BROIL.
6.
Touch OFF/CANCEL when finished broiling.
To CUSTOM BROIL:
Changing the temperature while custom broiling allows more
precise control when cooking. The lower the temperature, the
slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of
meat, fish and poultry may cook better at lower broiling
temperatures. If food is cooking too quickly, the broiling
temperature can be lowered by touching the TEMP “down” arrow
pad.
1.
Touch CUSTOM BROIL.
2.
Touch the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pads to set a
temperature between 300°F (149°C) and 525°F (273°C).
3.
Touch START/ENTER.
4.
Touch OFF/CANCEL when finished custom broiling.
BROILING CHART
For best results, broiler pan should be rotated at the same time
the food is turned. Times are guidelines only and may need to be
adjusted for individual foods and tastes.
Timed Cooking
(on some models)
Timed cooking allows the oven to be set to turn on at a certain
time of day, cook for a set length of time, and/or shut off
automatically. Delay start should not be used for food such as
breads and cakes because they may not bake properly.
To Set a Cook Time (on some models):
1.
Place the oven racks where needed and place food on the
appropriate rack. (See “Positioning Racks and Bakeware”
section.)
2.
Touch BAKE.
The Bake indicator light will light up.
3.
Set the temperature (optional)
Touch the TEMP “up” or “down” arrow pads to raise or lower
the temperature in 5°F (3°C) increments from the default
setting of 350°F (177°C).
