Broil Notes:

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

Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt circuit.

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.

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

For additional broiling tips and temperatures, refer to the “Cooking Made Simple” booklet.
