SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

SETTING BROIL

Broiling is a method of cooking tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil element of the oven. Be sure you center broiler pan directly under the broil element for best results.

Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. Position the rack as needed. The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping grease to drain and kept away from the high heat of the broiler. DO NOT use the broiler pan without its insert. DO NOT Cover the insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.

WARNING

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.
