SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Convection Broil
Use convection broil to cook thicker cuts of meat, fish,
and poultry that require direct exposure to radiant heat
and the convection fan for optimum browning results.
Convection broil gently browns the exterior and seals
in the juices. It uses the broil element and a fan to cir-
culate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within
the oven.
The convection fan will begin rotating once convection
broil has been activated.
Convection Broiling Tips:
•
Always pull the rack out to the stop position before
turning or removing food.
•
Always broil or convection broil with the oven door
closed.
•
For optimum results, preheat the broil element for
2-to-5 minutes before adding food.
•
Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and
cook on the second side. Season and serve.
•
Always use the broiler pan and its insert when
broiling, if included. It allows the dripping grease
to be kept away from the high heat of the broil
element.
•
Do not use the broil pan without the insert. Do not
cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed
grease could catch fire. Do not use the roasting
rack when broiling.
•
Since convection broil cooks food quickly, reduce
the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook
time of your recipe (check the food at this time).
If necessary, increase cook time until the desired
doneness is obtained.

To set convection broil:
WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door closed
and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw bak-
ing soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not
put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive
and water can cause a grease fire to spread and
cause personal injury.
The broiler pan and the insert allow grease to drain
and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not use the pan without the insert. Do not cover
the insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease
could ignite.
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the
oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks,
and cooktop will become very hot which can cause
burns.
Be aware that the convection fan will continue to run
after the door is opened. This is normal. Use caution
when reaching inside of the oven. Hot air will be
pushed out of the appliance.
1.
Arrange the oven rack while oven is still cool. Turn
the oven mode knob to the conv broil position.
2. Turn the oven temp knob to the desired tempera-
ture position. For optimum results, preheat broil for
2-to-5 minutes before adding food.
3. Place the insert on the broil pan (if equipped), then
place the food on the broil pan insert (if using a
broiler pan and insert). To purchase a broiling pan
and insert, visit electrolux.ca.
4. Place the broiler pan and insert on the oven rack.
Center the broiler pan directly under the broiler
element. Broil on one side until food is browned.
5. Turn and broil food on the second side.
6. To cancel the broiling function, turn the oven mode
and oven temp knobs to the OFF positions.
NOTE
Always pull the oven rack out to the stop position
before turning or removing food.
