Setting Oven Controls 19 Broil Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from the broil element. To set broil with the factory default temperature setting of 550°F (288°C): 1. Place the broiler insert on the broiler pan, then place the meat on the insert. Remember to follow all warnings and cautions. Broil with oven door closed. Should an oven fire occur, turn oven off and do not open the 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 possibly causing personal injury. Use pot holders or oven mitts when working with a hot oven. When broiling, the oven interior, oven racks will become hot enough to cause burns. Do not use the broiler pan without the insert. Do not cover broil pan insert with aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite. To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease splattering, use the broil pan and insert when broiling.The broil pan insert has slots that allow grease and fat from the meat to drain into the broiler pan away from the hot element. 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Figure 19: Rack positions (L) Broil pan and insert (R) For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat for 2 minutes.

Close the oven door.To avoid burning food, watch the food carefully when broiling and turn meat when needed. 7. Turn meat when the first side is browned to the desired amount. 8. To stop broil at anytime press CANCEL. Recommended Broiling Times Use the broiling table below for approximate recommended broiling times for the types of meat listed. Depending on the type, the thickness, and the desired doneness of meat, it might be necessary to increase or decrease broiling times or adjust the broiling pan to different rack positions. If the food you are broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your recipe and watch the broiling process closely. To change temperature settings use the hi + or lo - keys on either side of the zero (0) on the numeric keypad to increase or decrease the oven temperature. The oven temperature will change by 5° (F) with each press of the hi + or lo - key.

(Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef well done 170°F (76°C).
