Broiling
The top heating elements cycle on and off to maintain maximum temperature in the oven. For best results, the oven should be preheated for 20 minutes at 450°F before adding the food to be broiled.
Operation
•Set the temperature control to 450°F.
•Turn the function control to “BROIL”.
•Preheat the oven.
•Place the food on the broiler tray and slide into the top rack support guide or middle rack support guide depending on the thickness of the food that you are cooking.
•Food should be placed as close as possible to the top heating element without touching it.
•Set temperature control to the appropriate temperature.
•Brush food with sauces or oil, as desired.
•Turn time control to position “STAY ON”.
•It is advisable to leave the door slightly ajar.
•When broiling is complete, turn the time control to “OFF”.
Broiling Guide
Cooking results may vary, adjust these times to your individual requirements. Also, check often during broiling to avoid overcooking.

Note: All broiling times are based on meats at refrigerator temperature. Frozen meats may take considerably longer. Therefore, use of a meat thermo- meter is highly recommended.
Baking
Bake your favorite cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, etc. The bakeware that will fit in your oven are up to 9 inches in length. We do not recommend the use of oven roasting bags or glass containers in the oven. Never use plastic, cardboard, paper or anything similar in the oven.
Note: Position the wire rack in the lowest support guide.
Operation
•Place the wire rack in the lowest or middle rack support guide depending on the height of the pan or according to the recipe.
•Place pan with item(s) to be baked on the wire rack.
•Turn the function control to “BAKE”.
•Set the temperature control to the desired temperature.
•Turn the time control to position “STAY ON”.
•When baking is complete, turn the time control to “OFF”.
Baking On Two Racks
•Two racks of cookies can be baked at the same time, however it is necessary to rotate them (i.e. move the top to the bottom and the bottom to the top) halfway through the cooking time.
Positioning of the Wire Racks
Cookies: Use bottom and middle support guides.
Layer Cakes: Use bottom support guide only (bake one at a time).
Pies: Use bottom support guide.
Baking Cookies
For baking cookies, we suggest adjusting baking temperature and using the cookie sheets placed on the baking racks. Also, using parchment paper on the cookie sheets might prove helpful when baking certain types of cookies.
1.Use parchment paper on cookie sheets so cookies will not stick.
2.Cookie sheets, baking times and temperatures may differ from those necessary when using other baking materials.
Baking Guide
Follow the package or recipe instructions for baking times and temperature.
