Using traditional broil. www.GEAppliances.com
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Leave the door open to the broil stop position.
The door stays open by itself, yet the proper
temperature is maintained in the oven.
NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door open
or closed. However, if the door is closed, the
food may not brown as well because the oven
heating element will cycle on and off.
Select BROIL.
Select HI for high broil
or LO for low broil. LO is used to
broil thicker cuts of meat without
over-browning them.
Select START. We recommend
preheating for 5 minutes with the door
closed whether you broil food with
the door open or closed.
Place the meat or fish on the broiler
grid and pan.
Follow suggested rack positions in
the Broiling Guide.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature and your preference of
doneness will affect broiling times. This
guide is based on meats at refrigerator
temperature.
When broiling is finished, press the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
NOTE: The oven will automatically turn off
after 3 hours of continuous broil.
