SETTING CONVECTION BROIL (lower oven
only)
Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fish and
poultry. The Convection Broiling gently browns the exterior
and seals in the juices. Convection broiling uses the broil
element and a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and
continuously within the oven. The oven can be programmed
for Convection Broiling at any temperature between 400°F
to 550°F with a default temperature of 550°F.
Convection Broiling Tips:
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 5
minutes.
• Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook
on the second side. Season and serve.
• Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before
turning or removing food.
• Always use a broiler pan and its grid when broiling
(available by mail order). 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 (available
by mail order). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert
with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
• If using a Searing Grill (available by mail order), preheat
the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat.
• Convection broiling is generally faster than conventional
broiling. Check for doneness at the minimum
recommended time.
Warning
Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and
turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking 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.
