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 oven temperature during broiling, press
the Broil pad and then the More+ or Less- pad to
switch between LO and HI broil.
° Broil times may be longer when the lower broiling
temperature is selected.
