Using the oven.
Close the door. Always broil with the door closed.
If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks may be broiled by preheating the broiler and positioning the oven rack one position higher.
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Close the door. Always broil with the door closed.
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions in the Broiling Guide.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats
at refrigerator temperature.
Press the Broil Hi/Lo pad once for
HI Broil.
To change to LO Broil, press the Broil Hi/Lo pad again.
Press the Start pad.
When broiling is finished, press the Clear/Off pad.
NOTE: On some models, the lower oven is controlled with a knob. To set the oven for broiling, turn the knob to BROIL. Turn the knob to OFF when broiling is complete.
