Setting broil Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. When broiling always remember to arrange the oven racks while oven is still cool. NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from the element. Watch food to prevent burning. For medium done steaks, position the oven rack closer to the broil element. For well-done foods such as chicken, fish, lobster or thick cuts of meat, position the oven rack further from the broil element. SETTING OVEN CONTROLS . Figure 10: Be sure to set oven control to broil. WARNING Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn the oven OFF. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive. CAUTION • Always use oven mitts. Oven racks will become very hot which can cause burns. • When broiling, always pull the oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food. 5 4 3 2 1 Figure 11: Broil rack positions and broil pan insert To set broil: 1.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Setting broil

Use the broil feature to cook meats that require direct

exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results.

When broiling always remember to arrange the oven racks

while oven is still cool.

NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce

some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further

away from the element. Watch food to prevent burning.

For medium done steaks, position the oven rack closer to

the broil element. For well-done foods such as chicken, fish,

lobster or thick cuts of meat, position the oven rack further

from the broil element.

To set broil:

Arrange oven racks while the oven is still cool.

Turn the oven control knob to broil. Most foods can be

broiled at the broil setting. Preheat the oven if desired.

Place the insert on the broiler pan (if equipped), then

place the food on the insert. Do not use the broiler pan

without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil

(

Figure 11

). The exposed fat could ignite.

Place the broiler pan on the oven rack. Leave the oven

door open at the broil stop position when broiling

(

Figure 12
