Oven Broiler

Gas range convection ovens have an infrared broiler. The infrared burner heats a metal screen at the top of the oven cavity. When the screen reaches a reddish glow, it creates enough infrared heat to broil food by searing the exterior and sealing in the juices.

BROILER OPERATION

•Position the oven rack at the appropriate level; the level affects doneness. The farther away the food is from the broiler, the more well done it will be inside and the cooking time will be longer.

•Always use the two-piece broiler pan included with your range.

•Do not preheat; place food in a cool oven and close the door.

•Push in and turn the oven control knob counterclock- wise to the BROIL setting. The infrared burner will light within 45 seconds.

•Use a minute timer to signal half of cooking time; turn the food over and reset the timer.

•When broiling is complete, turn the control knob clock- wise to the OFF position.

BROILING TIPS

•Trim any excess fat from the food; score remaining fat to prevent the food from curling during broiling.

•If excessive smoking occurs, the food is too close to the heat.

•Never use heat-proof glass for broiling; it can shatter.

•Refer to the Wolf broiling guide on page 32. Use cooking times as a guide for other similar foods.

When opening the oven door to add or remove food, keep your face away from the opening. High heat or grease flare-ups could cause burns.
