Preheating

On models with oven indicator light, light glows until oven reaches desired temperature. Indicator light turns on and off when oven cycles to maintain temperature.

On models without indicator light, preheat oven approximately 10–15 minutes before baking.

During preheat the broil element will heat until oven reaches preheat temperature. Do not turn temperature knob to broil and, then back to baking temperature. If temperature knob is set to broil, oven remains in broil until temperature knob is turned to OFF.

Broiling

!WARNING

To avoid risk of fire, do not line the broiler grid with foil.

Foil may trap grease on top of grid close to burner causing a fire.

Never leave oven unattended while broiling. Overcooking may result in a fire.

Broiling Tips

Remove excess fat from meat before broiling. Cut edges of meat to prevent curling.

Place food on a cold ungreased broiling pan. If pan is hot, food sticks.

All food except fish should be turned at least one time. Begin broiling with skin side down.

Season meat after it has browned.

Broiling does not require preheating.

Begin cooking using suggested rack levels in Broiling Guide section to test broiler results. If food is not brown enough, cook on a higher rack position. If food is too brown, cook on a lower rack position.

1.Center food on broiling grid and pan, and place in oven.

Oven door should be opened to first stop.

2.Turn oven temperature knob to BROIL.

On models with oven indicator light, light glows.

3.After broiling, remove food and turn oven temperature knob to OFF.
