more information.

The Broil mode is best suited for cooking thin, tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poul- try and fish. It can also be used to brown breads and casseroles. Always broil with the door closed.

To use the broil pan and grid:

For normal Broil: food should be placed in the center of the broil pan and grid.

For Max Broil: food should be spread out over the entire broil pan and grid. The benefits of broiling include:

Fast and efficient cooking.

Cooking without the addition of fats or liquids.

Preheat oven 3-4 minutes. Do not preheat for more than 5 minutes.

Steaks and chops should be at least ¾" thick.

Brush fish and poultry with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

Use the broil pan and grid included with the oven.

Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to prevent smoking and spattering.

Turn meats once during the recommended cook time (see Broil Chart for exam- ples).

When top browning casseroles, use only metal or glass ceramic dishes such as Corningware®.

Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate the high temperature.
