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.
