Broiling Using a Regular Meat Thermometer

For accurately determining the degree of doneness for a thick steak or chop (at least 1-1/2 inches thick), use a regular meat thermometer. Insert the point of the thermometer into the side of the meat to the center of the steak or chop.

For rare steaks, cook the first side to 90°F. For medium or well done steaks, cook the first side to 100°F. Turn and cook the second side to desired internal temperature.

Secondary Oven (48")

Foods may be broiled on racks #3, 4 or 5 depending upon the type and thickness of the food. Rack #5 may be used for top browning of foods.

Note:

It is impossible to use the bake and broiler elements simultaneously. When one is on, the other one cannot be turned on.

Setting Broil or Convection Broil

Broil — Electric Oven

Only the upper element heats in the BROIL mode.

Note:

Successful broiling requires constant exposure to high, intense heat.

To Set the Oven to Broil or Convection Broil

1.Place oven rack in desired position.

2.Set Mode Selector Knob to BROIL or CONVECTION BROIL.

3.Set Temperature Selector Knob to BROIL.

4.Wait until PRE HEATING light turns off, after approximately three (3) minutes.

5.Place food in oven at desired rack position as referenced on page 28.

6.The door should be closed throughout the broil cycle.

Your Professional Range comes with a large two- piece broiler pan. The slotted grid allows drippings to flow into the lower pan, away from the intense heat of the broil element, minimizing spattering and smoking.

The 48" Models have a small two-piece broiler pan, for use in the secondary oven.

The OVEN ON light stays on during any BROIL mode, and remains on until either of the oven control knobs is turned to the OFF position.

Automatic operation of the cooling blower:

For either BROIL mode, the cooling blower activates only after the oven reaches 425°F, while heating up to the broiling temperature. When the broiler is turned off, the blower remains on until the oven temperature cools to 375°F.

DO NOT continue to use the broiler if the cooling blower fails to activate while broiling. Call a qualified service agency to repair the range.

Note:

The interior oven light is operated by a separate switch that turns the light on and off, independent of any control setting.
