• For best results when broiling, use a pan designed for
broiling.

slightly lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt
circuit.

longer cooking foods. The lower temperature allows
food to cook to the well done stage without excessive
browning.

Broil pad and then press the ▲ or ▼ pad to switch
between LO and HI broil.
