How to Set the Oven for Broiling

Use Lo Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without overbrowning them.

Place the food on a broiler grid

in a broiler pan designed for broiling.

Follow suggested rack positions in the broiling Guide.

Touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad once for Hi Broil.

To change to Lo Broil, touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad again.

Touch the Start pad.

When broiling is finished, touch the Clear/Off pad.

Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven.

The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference

of doneness will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.

†The u.S. Department of Agriculture says “Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food book. Your Kitchen Guide. uSDA Rev. June 1985.)
