Broiling

Open door to the "Broil

Stop" position when broiling

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven.

Preheating

Preheating is suggested when searing rare steaks. (Remove the broiler pan before preheating. Foods will stick if placed on hot metal.) To preheat, set the oven control(s) to BROIL as instructed in the Owner’s Guide. Wait for the element to become red-hot, usually about 2 minutes. Preheating is not necessary when broiling meats well-done.

To Broil

Broil on one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and serve. Always pull rack out to the “stop” position before turning or removing food.

Determining Broiling Times

Broiling times vary, so watch the food closely. Time not only depends on the distance from the element, but on the thickness and aging of meat, fat content and doneness preferred. The first side usually requires a few minutes longer than the second. Frozen meats also require additional time.

Broiling Tips

The broiler pan and its grid allow dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.

Always pull oven rack out to the “stop” position before turning or removing food.

DO NOT use the pan without its grid. DO NOT cover the grid with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door 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.

Broiler Clean-Up Tips:

•To make cleaning easier, line the bottom of the broiler pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover the broiler grid with foil.

•To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use hot pads because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease. Soak the pan in HOT, soapy water.

•Clean the broiler pan as soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the grid.

Changing Oven Light

Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing the oven light bulb. Do not turn the oven light on during the self-cleaning cycle. High temperature will reduce lamp life.

On some models an interior oven light will turn on automatically when the oven door is opened.

The oven light may be turned on when the door is closed by using the oven light switch located on the control panel.

On a self clean oven the lamp is covered with a glass shield held in place by a wire holder.

THIS GLASS SHIELD MUST BE IN PLACE WHENEVER THE OVEN IS IN USE.

To replace the light bulb:

CAUTION: BE SURE OVEN IS COOL

1. Turn the power off at the main source.

2. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.

3.Replace bulb with a 40 watt appliance bulb only.

4.For self-cleaning oven, press wire holder to one side to release glass shield, change bulb and be sure to replace glass shield.
