Close the door. Always broil with the door closed.

HI Broil.

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

Press the Start pad.

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

Instructions Operating

The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference for 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.)
