Setting Oven Controls

Setting Broil (for Electric Ranges) - The pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates

downward from the oven broiler element for even coverage. The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F however, the Broil feature temperature may be set between 400°F and 550°F.

The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Fig. 5). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.

Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
