Convection Broil (some models)

Convection Broil is similar to Broil. It combines intense heat from the upper element with heat circulated by a convection fan. The Convection Broil mode is well suited for cooking thick, tender cuts of meat, poultry and fish. Convection Broil is typically not recommended for browning breads, casseroles and other foods.

Always convection broil with the door closed. In

addition to the benefits of standard broiling, convection broiling is faster than stan- dard Broiling.

Note: The only heat setting for the Convection Broil mode is High.

For Best Results:

•Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat more that 5 minutes.

•Meats should be at least 1 1/2” thick.

•Turn meats once halfway through the cooking time (See Convection Broil Chart for examples).

•Use the broil pan and grid included with your range.

•Do not cover the broiler grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.

•Salt after cooking.
