38 OPERATION

Broil

The Broil function uses intense heat from the
upper heating element to cook food. Broiling
works best for tender cuts of meat, fish, and thinly
cut vegetables.
Some models may feature a hybrid broiler
consisting of an inner broiler that utilizes a carbon
heating element which provides instantaneous
heat, and a traditional outer broiling element.
During normal broiler operation, it is normal for
either element to cycle off intermittently.
CAUTION
• Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can
cause a grease fire.
• Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with
aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.
• Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat
and grease drainage. This will help to reduce
splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.
• When using your broiler, the temperature inside
the oven will be extremely high. Take caution to
avoid possible burns by:
- Keeping the door closed when broiling
- Always wearing oven mitts when inserting or
removing food items
NOTE
• This range is designed for closed-door broiling.
Close the door to set the Broil function. If the
door is open, the Broil function cannot be set
and "door" appears on the display. Close the
door and reset the Broil function. Opening the
door turns off the broil burner during broiling. If
the door is opened during broiling, the broil
burner turns off after five seconds. The broiler
turns back on automatically once the door is
closed.

Tips for Reducing Smoke
Due to the intense heat associated with broiling, it
is normal to experience smoke during the cooking
process. This smoke is a natural byproduct of
searing and should not cause you to worry. If you
are experiencing more smoke than you are
comfortable with, use the following tips to reduce
the amount of smoke in your oven.
• Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans
or regular baking sheets for safety reasons.
• The broiler pan should always be thoroughly
cleaned and at room temperature at the
beginning of cooking.
• Always run your cooktop ventilation system or
vent hood during broiling.
• Keep the interior of your oven as clean as
possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can
burn or catch fire.
• Avoid fatty marinades and sugary glazes. Both of
these will increase the amount of smoke you
experience. If you would like to use a glaze,
apply it at the very end of cooking.
