Broiling Recommendations - Thermador PRO HARMONY PRD364WDGU Use And Care Manual

Getting the Best Results
• Defrost food before broiling.
• Door is to be closed during broiling.
• Steaks should be more than 1" (25.4 mm) thick if rare
meat is desired. Use convection broil if steaks are over
1½'' (38 mm) thick.
• Turn foods over only once, after half the total cooking
time. It is not necessary to turn very thin foods (ham
slices, fillets of fish, etc.). Liver slices must be turned
over regardless of thickness.
• Center foods directly under the broiling element for
best browning.
Preheating the Broiler
• It is recommended that you preheat the broil element
before starting to cook. Preheat for 3 minutes then
place food in oven.
Utensils
• The porcelain enamel two-piece broil pan and grid is
included with the range. DO NOT cover the slotted grid
(top) with aluminum foil.
• Use metal or glass-ceramic bakeware when top
browning casseroles, main dishes, or bread.
• DO NOT use heat-proof glass or pottery. This type of
glassware cannot withstand the intense heat of the
broil element.
• The small porcelain broiler pan is designed to be used
in the Secondary Oven of 48" models.
NOTE: It is not possible to use the BAKE mode and BROIL
mode simultaneously. When one mode is on, the other
mode cannot be turned on.
Setting Broil or Convection Broil
Only the upper element heats in the BROIL mode.
Successful broiling requires constant exposure to high,
intense heat.
1. Place oven rack in desired position.
2. Set Mode Selector Knob to BROIL or CONV BROIL.
3. Set Temperature Selector Knob to BROIL setting.
4. Place food in oven at desired rack position.
• The door should be closed throughout the broil
cycle.
• Your THERMADOR 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, smoking, and the
chance of a grease fire.
• The 48" Models have a small porcelain broiler pan,
for use in the Secondary Oven.
Using the Oven
Automatic operation of the cooling blowers
The cooling blowers activate after the oven reaches 300°F
(149°C). When the oven is turned off, the blowers remain
on until the oven temperature cools below 250°F (121°C).
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.
