OVEN CONTROLS
Setting Broil
Broiling tips:
• Broil foods with oven door closed.
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 2
minutes. Broil one side until the food is browned; turn
and cook on the second side. Season and serve.
• If using a searing grill (available by mail order), preheat
oven 5 to 10 minutes before grilling.
This mode is best for meats, fish and poultry up to 1” thick.
Broiling cooks tender cuts of meat by direct heat. The broil
key controls the broil feature. An optional searing grill,
broiler pan, and insert are available via the enclosed acces-
sories brochure. The broil pan and broil pan insert used
together allow grease to drain away from the high heat of
the oven broiler. The oven can be programmed to broil at
any temperature from 400°F to 550°F with a default temper-
ature of 550°F.
To set a broil of 500°F:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan and place
the food on the broiler pan insert. Do not use the broiler
pan without the insert.The exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan
on the rack. Center the broiler pan directly under the
broiler element. Preheat for 2 minutes before broiling.
3. Press broil. 550 will appear in the display.
4. Press 5 0 0. If a lower broil temperature is desired
(minimum broil temperature setting is 400°F), press the
desired temperature before continuing to Step 5.
5. Press start. The oven will begin to broil. 500° will
appear in the display.
6. Broil on one side until 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.
7. To stop broiling, press off..
Always use oven mitts when handling broil accessories.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn
the oven off. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher.
Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explo-
sive.
The broiler pan and the insert (some models) 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. To ensure proper results when broiling, use
only Electrolux Home Products, Inc. approved broil pan
and insert.
