Broiling and Custom Broiling

1

1. Broil element

Broiling uses direct radiant heat from the broil element to cook food. During broiling, the broil element cycles on and off in intervals to maintain the oven temperature.

If the lower oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will turn off immediately and come back on once the door is closed.

Use only the broiler pan and grid provided with the appliance. It is designed to drain juices and help prevent spatter and smoke.

For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.

Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to prevent curling.

Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.

After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.

To Broil:

Before broiling or custom broiling, position the rack according to the Broiling Chart.

Position food on the grid in the broiler pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack with the longest side parallel to the door. It is not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in, unless recommended in the recipe.

Close the door.

1.Press CUSTOM BROIL.

2.Press START/ENTER.

The set oven temperature will appear on the lower oven display until the oven is turned off.

3.Press lower oven OFF/CANCEL when finished cooking.

BROILING CHART

For best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the “Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
