Broiling
NOTE: Preheating is not necessary when broiling.

2.Put the broiler pan and food on the rack.
3.Close the door to the Broil Stop position (open about 4 inches [ 10 cm]). The door will stay open by itself.

6.When broiling is done, push the Off/Cancel pad. The time of day will show in the display and all other displays will go off.
To broil at a lower temperature:
l If food is cooking too fast, push the Broil pad and push the V Temp pad until “325”” shows in the small display.
l If you want food to broil slower from the start, push the Broil pad and push the V Temp pad so a temperature between 170°F and 325°F (77°C and 163°C) shows in the small display. These temperature settings allow the broil heating element to cycle and to slow cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. BROIL and HEAT will light up in the display.
l Fish and chicken are some foods that may cook better if you use lower broiling temperatures.
NOTE: Leave the door partly open whenever using the oven to broil. This allows the oven to maintain proper temperatures.
