Broiling
BROILER
The broiler is located below the oven door. The broiler pan and grid roll out for easy access. Always broil with the broiler drawer and oven door closed.
■To avoid damage to the broiler, do not step on or apply weight to the broiler door while it is open.
■Do not preheat broiler before use. Completely close broiler drawer during broiling.
■Do not use broiler drawer for storage.
■For best results, use a broiler pan and grid. It is designed to drain juices and help avoid spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be ordered. Please refer to the cover for contact information. Ask for Part Number 4396923.
■For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier cleaning.
■Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on the edges to avoid curling.
■Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
■After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated oven, making cleaning more difficult.
To Broil:
1.Open the broiler drawer and take out the broiler pan and grid.
2.Place food on the grid in the broiler pan at the desired broiling position and close the drawer.
3.Touch BROIL.
The BROIL indicator light will light up.

The indicator light will light up. The temperature setting can be changed at any time during broiling. If broiling while the Timer is counting down, the set broiling temperature can be displayed for 5 seconds by touching BROIL.
5.Touch CANCEL/OFF when finished broiling.
BROILING CHART
For best results, broiler pan should be rotated at the same time the food is turned. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted for individual foods and tastes.
