Lower Oven Operating Instructions (continued)

BROIL

Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results.

The following temperature settings apply to the broil feature:

•Auto-suggest (default) setting: 550°F / 288°C

•Min. broil setting: 400°F / 204°C

•Max. broil setting: 550°F / 288°C

Setting broil for lower oven

See example below to set broil for the lower oven starting immediately with the auto-suggest (default) setting:

1.Place the broiler insert on the broiler pan, then place the meat on the insert. Remember to follow all warnings and cautions.

For best results

•Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for the type of meat being prepared.

•For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat 5-6 minutes before placing the food in the oven.

CAUTION

•Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.

•Do not cover the broil pan/insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

•To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease splattering, do not use the roasting rack when broiling.

2.Arrange the interior oven rack to rack position recommendations -Figs. 2 & 3-. Be sure to place the prepared food and pan directly under broil element.

Close the oven door.

3.Press BROIL

4.Press START

NOTE

You may press STOP any time when setting the control or during the cooking process.

Leaving open the lower oven door for a minute while broiling will cause the electronic controls to prompt “dr” to remind you to close the door. If the oven door is not closed after 30 seconds, the controller will cancel the broiling.

WARNING

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door. 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.

The broil pan and its insert are available via the mail order card. The broil pan insert contains slots that allows grease from the meat to drain into the broil pan. Place prepared meat on broil pan insert and then place onto broiler pan as

shown below.
