Oven Cooking

Broiling

CAUTION

Use CAUTION when cooking with the Broil feature. The grease from fatty foods may ignite. If a fire should occur, close the oven door and turn the oven OFF. If the fire does not extinquish, DO NOT put water on the fire. Use baking soda, dry chemical or fire extinguisher to smother the fire.

4.For optimum browning, preheat 2-3 minutes before adding food.

5.Place food in the oven. Close the oven door.

6.Turn meat once about halfway through cooking.

7.When food is cooked, press the CANCEL pad. Remove food and broiler pan from the oven.

• The time of day will reappear in the display.

To set Broil:

1. Press the Broil pad.

BROIL and SET flash in the display.

2.Press the Autoset 0 pad once to set HI broil or twice to set LO broil.

HI or LO will be displayed.

Select HI broil (550° F) for normal broiling. Select LO broil (450° F) for low-temperature broiling of longer cooking foods such as poultry.

3.After four seconds, the oven will start.

BROIL will remain lit.

HI or LO will remain lit.

Broil Notes:

For best results when broiling, use a pan designed for broiling.

HI is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling longer cooking foods. The lower temperature allows food to cook to the well done stage without excessive browning.

To change the oven temperature during broiling, press the Broil pad, then the Autoset 0 pad to switch between LO and HI broil

Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling temperature is selected.

Most foods should be turned halfway through broiling time.
