Using the oven.

If your range is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks may be broiled by preheating the broiler and positioning the oven rack one position higher.

How to Set the Oven for Broiling

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

NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door closed, but it may not brown as well because the oven heating element will cycle on and off.

Place the meat or fish on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.

Follow suggested rack positions in

the Broiling Guide.

Press the BROIL HI/LO pad once

for HI Broil.

To change to LO Broil, press the BROIL HI/LO pad again.

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without over-browning them.

Press the START pad.

When broiling is finished, press the CLEAR/OFF pad.

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.)
