twice to set LO broil.

Select HI broil for normal broiling. Select LO broil for
low-temperature broiling of longer cooking foods such
as poultry.
3. After four seconds, the oven will start.
• BROIL and HI or LO will remain lit.
4. For optimum browning, preheat broil element for 3-4
minutes before adding food.

inches (the first stop).

Notes:
• For best results when broiling, use a two-piece broiler
pan.
• HI broil is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when
broiling longer cooking foods to allow them to cook to
well done stage without excessive browning.
• Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling
temperature is selected.
• Never cover broiler pan insert with aluminum foil. This
prevents fat from draining to the pan below.
• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly
lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt circuit.
• If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing the
Broil pad and the Autoset pad, the oven will not be set
and the display will return to the previous display.
• Most foods should be turned halfway through broiling
time.
