32 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. 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. Speed Broil The Speed Broil setting is designed to reduce the amount of time it takes to broil foods. By utilizing the infrared broil element, which provides heat instantaneously, there is no need for preheating. Setting the oven to Broil / Speed Broil 1 Turn the oven mode knob to select Broil or Speed Broil. Press plus(+) or minus(-) to select Hi or Lo. 2 Press Start. The oven begins to heat. 3 Let the oven preheat for approximately five minutes before cooking the food if using broil. 4 Turn the oven mode knob to the Off position to cancel at any time or when cooking is complete. Smoking 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. 1 Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans or regular baking sheets for safety reasons. 2 The broiler pan should always be thoroughly cleaned and at room temperature at the beginning of cooking. 3 Always run your cooktop ventilation system or vent hood during broiling. 4 Keep the interior of your oven as clean as possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can burn or catch fire. 5 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. 6 If you are experiencing significant smoke with any food item, consider: •• Lowering the broiler to the Lo setting. •• Lowering the rack position to cook the food further away from the broiler. •• Using the Hi broil setting to achieve the level of searing you desire, and then either switching to the Lo broil setting, or switching to the Bake function. 7 As a rule, fattier cuts of meat and fish will produce more smoke than leaner items. 8 Adhere to the recommended broil settings and cooking guidelines in the chart on the following page whenever possible.

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.
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.
Speed Broil
The Speed Broil setting is designed to reduce the
amount of time it takes to broil foods. By utilizing
the infrared broil element, which provides heat
instantaneously, there is no need for preheating.

Smoking
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.
1
Always use a broiler pan. Do not use saute pans
or regular baking sheets for safety reasons.
2
The broiler pan should always be thoroughly
cleaned and at room temperature at the
beginning of cooking.
3
Always run your cooktop ventilation system or
vent hood during broiling.
4
Keep the interior of your oven as clean as
possible. Leftover debris from prior meals can

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.
6
If you are experiencing significant smoke with
any food item, consider:
•
Lowering the broiler to the Lo setting.
•
Lowering the rack position to cook the food
further away from the broiler.
•
Using the Hi
broil setting to achieve the level of
searing you desire, and then either switching
to the Lo broil setting, or switching to the Bake
function.
