Broiling

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. 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.

■ For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are

designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.

If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be

ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

■ 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 avoid curling.

■ Select HI/550°F (288°C) broil for most broiling. Select

LO/450°F (232°C) broil for low-temperature broiling of longer

cooking foods such as poultry to avoid overbrowning.

■ 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.

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart.

Position food on grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center

of the oven rack. Close the door to the broil stop position (about

4" [10.0 cm]) to ensure proper broiling temperature.

To Broil Using Hi/Low Temperature Settings:

1. For upper oven, preheat oven 5 minutes before placing food

in the oven. For lower oven, preheat is not necessary before

placing food in the oven.

2. Position oven door to broil stop position.

3. Press BROIL for the desired oven.

“BROIL” will scroll in the selected oven text area, and “HI” will

be displayed.

After 3 seconds, “Set temp or” will scroll in the upper text

area, followed by “Push START.”

4. Press “1” on the keypad for the High broil setting, or press

“2” for the Low broil setting.

5. Press START for the desired oven.

“Broiling” will scroll in the upper text area and remains there.

“BROIL” will scroll in the selected oven text area once the set

temperature is reached and remains there until CANCEL for

the desired oven is pressed.

NOTE: The broil temperature may be changed at any time by

pressing “1” on the keypad for the High broil setting or

pressing “2” for the Low broil setting and then pressing

START for the desired oven. Changing the temperature once

food is placed in the oven could affect performance.

6. Press CANCEL for the desired oven when finished.

7. Remove food from the oven.

BROILING CHART

It is not necessary to preheat the lower oven when broiling. The upper oven should be preheated for 5 minutes. Times are guidelines

only and may need to be adjusted for individual tastes. Turn meat halfway through cooking time. Recommended rack positions are

numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

*When broiling fish, spray broil pan with cooking oil. Do not turn fish filets.
