Using the oven.

Do not lock the oven door with the latch during broiling. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.

How to Set the Oven for Broiling

Instructions Safety

Always use the broiler pan and grid that came with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan.

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

Follow suggested shelf positions in the

Broiling Guide.

The oven door must be closed during broiling.

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/ON pad.

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

Serve the food immediately, and leave the pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for easiest cleaning.

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

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions Operating

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.)

The oven has 5 shelf positions.
