At the end of the set time the control will emit 3 "beeps" and the display will return to stand-by (showing the time of the day, if previ- ously set).

Dry meat, fish and poultry surfaces with paper towel. - Place the food on the broiling rack set in the shallow pan as shown in the figure. Position wire rack so that food will be about 2 inches from top heating element. Thick foods such as chicken pieces should be 3 - 4 inches from the element. - The broiling rack can be inverted if necessary, but do not attempt to broil without the rack as fat drip- pings can smoke or flame. BROIL RACK - For easier clean-up, the shallow pan can be lined with foil. Be sure not to cover the broiling rack or let foil extend beyond the edges of the pan. - Be careful when turning food or removing the pan. Use potholders and avoid spilling drippings. - Never cover heating elements with foil. - To top-brown casseroles with crumb or cheese toppings, place the dish directly on the OVEN TRAY wire rack 2 - 3 inches from the top element. Close the door and watch carefully to avoid burning the toppings. NOTE: Oven-glass dishes should not be exposed to direct broiler heat. When the function and the temperature controls are set to BROIL only the top element heats at full power. Set the broiling rack in the bake pan on the wire rack in position 2 (see pag. 6) so that the food is few inches from the top element. For thick foods such as chicken parts place the rack in position 1. If necessary, the broiling rack can be inverted in the pan. The broiling rack shields the fat drippings from direct heat, reducing spattering, smoking and possible flaming. Always use the shallow pan when broiling any fatty foods. 18
