ing broiling.

Add 3 to 4 cups of water in the broiler pan to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Position food on grid and broil. The water catches the grease from the broiling food, cools the grease and reduces smoking.

Meat too close to the element. Lower the rack.

Remove excess fat from the meat. Slash remaining fat edges to prevent curling; do not cut into lean.

Always place the grid on the broiler pan with the slots down to allow grease to drip into the pan.

Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is mandatory when broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.

AVOID TRANSPORTATION DAMAGE TO YOUR RANGE

If you have to move your range into/out of your residence or when moving to a new home, it is suggested that you take the following precautions:

1.Screw in the levelling legs under the range.

2.Remove the racks and other ustensils from the oven, and from the lower drawer.

3.Use adhesive tape to firmly secure the door and the drawer to the side panels. Also attach the electric power cord in the same manner.

4.Use a two-wheeled dolley with strap and fasten the range to it. Cover the appliance with a heavy blanket to prevent scratches and dents.

5.Avoid pulling or pushing the control panel when moving the appliance.
