Broiling Guide

The oven door and broiler compartment drawer must be closed during broiling.

Always use the broiler pan that comes with your range.

If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling. Or, brush with barbecue sauce the last 5 to 10 minutes.

When arranging food on pan, do not let fatty edges hang over the sides. The fat drippings will soil the broiler compartment.

Use tongs to turn the meat. Pierced meat loses juices.

One of the main features of the Hotpoint RGA724 and RGA720 is their powerful cooktop configuration. These ranges typically offer four burners with varying heat outputs, allowing home cooks to achieve precise cooking results.

The ovens feature a conventional baking system that ensures even heat distribution, promoting consistently baked goods and perfectly roasted meals.

Moreover, these models often include a built-in ignition system that ensures quick and reliable burner lighting, eliminating the need for matches or lighters.

Safety is a priority with Hotpoint ranges, as demonstrated by their flame failure device, which automatically turns off the gas supply if a burner goes out. This feature provides peace of mind to users, particularly families with children.

In summary, the Hotpoint RGA724 and RGA720 models excel in both performance and functionality, making them an excellent choice for anyone looking to elevate their cooking experience.
