Broil Notes:
• For best results when broiling, use a pan designed for
broiling.
• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be
slightly lighter if appliance is installed on a 208-volt
circuit.
• HI is used for most broiling. Use LO broil when broiling
longer cooking foods. The lower temperature allows
food to cook to the well done stage without excessive
browning.
• To change the oven temperature during broiling,
press the Broil pad and then press the ▲ or ▼ pad to
switch between LO and HI broil.
• Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling temp-
erature is selected.
• Most foods should be turned halfway through broiling
time.
• For additional broiling tips and temperatures, refer to the
"Cooking Made Simple" booklet.
