Setting broil for lower oven

See example below to set broil for the lower oven starting immediately with the auto-suggest (default) setting:

Place the broiler insert on the broiler pan, then

place the meat on the insert. Remember to follow all

warnings and cautions.

. Arrange the interior oven rack to rack position

recommendations -Figs. 2 & 3-. Be sure to place the

prepared food and pan directly under broil element.

Close the oven door.

3.Press BROIL

4.Press START

NOTE

You may press STOP any time when setting the control or

during the cooking process.

Leaving open the lower oven door for a minute while broiling will cause the electronic controls to prompt "dr" to remind you to close the door. If the oven door is not closed after 30 seconds° the controller will cancel the broiling.

For best results

*Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for the type of meat being prepared.

*For optimum browning resuits_ allow the oven to preheat 5-6minutes before placing the food in the oven.

*Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.

*Do not cover the broil pan/insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

*To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to

prevent grease spJattering_ do not use the roasting rack when broiling.

Should an oven fire occur_ close the oven door. If the fire continues° throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

The broil pan and its insert are available via the mail order card. The broil pan insert contains slots that allows grease from the meat to drain into the broil pan. Place prepared meat on broil pan insert and then place onto broiler pan as
