Whirlpool W10017720 Manuel D’Utilisation

Preheat temperatures are affected by varying factors such as 
room temperature and peak energy usage times. It is normal for 
the temperature showing on the display and the actual oven 
temperature to differ.

Waiting an additional 10 minutes after the preheat conditioning 
time ends to put food in the oven is suggested when baking 
foods with leavening ingredients, such as yeast, baking powder, 
baking soda and eggs.

Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the 
temperature when Custom Broiling allows more precise control 
when cooking. The lower the temperature, the slower the 
cooking. Thicker cuts and unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish 
and poultry may cook better at lower broiling temperatures.

■

For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. They are 
designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke. 

If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be 
ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for 
Part Number 4396923.

■

For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The 
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier 
cleaning.

■

Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on 
the edges to avoid curling.

■

Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing 
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very 
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.

■

After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing 
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated 
oven, making cleaning more difficult.

Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. It is 
not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless 
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler 
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door to 
the broil stop position to ensure proper broiling temperature.

1. Press CUSTOM BROIL. The broil oven indicator light will light 

up.

2. Press START/ENTER. The On and Heat oven indicator lights 

will light up.

The temperature setting can be changed any time before or 
after pressing START/ENTER. See “Custom Broiling” section.

If broiling while the time is counting down, the set broiling 
temperature can be seen for 5 seconds by pressing CUSTOM 
BROIL.

3. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.

If foods are cooking too fast, press the TEMP/TIME “up” or 
“down” arrow pad until 325°F (163°C) shows on the display.

1. Press CUSTOM BROIL to broil foods slower from the start of 

cooking.

2. Press the TEMP/TIME “up” or “down” arrow pad to enter a 

temperature between 300°F and 500°F (149°C and 260°C). 

3. Press START/ENTER.

4. Press OFF/CANCEL when finished.

For best results, place food 3" (7 cm) or more from the broil 
element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted 
for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are 
numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.

*Place up to 9 patties, equally spaced, on broiler grid.

Timed Cooking allows the oven to be set to cook in 2 different 
ways.  The oven can be set to start cooking immediately and shut 
off automatically at the end of the cooking time. Or, the oven can 
be set to start at a later time, cook for a specified length of time 
and shut off automatically at the end of the cooking time.

Foods that require a preheated oven should not be cooked using 
a delayed function.

1. Press BAKE. The bake oven indicator light will light up.

2. Set the temperature (optional).

Press the TEMP/TIME “up” or “down” arrow pads to enter a 
temperature other than the one displayed.
