Safety Instructions Using the oven. Door Positioning During Broiling: For models JSS28 and JDS28: For all other models: How to Set the Oven for Broiling Use Lo Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without overbrowning them. Place the food on a broiler grid in a broiler pan designed for broiling. Follow suggested rack positions in the Broiling Guide. Touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad once for Hi Broil. To change to Lo Broil, touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad again. Touch the Start pad. When broiling is finished, touch the Clear/Off pad. Operating Instructions Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven. The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature. † The U.S. Department of Agriculture says "Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F means some food poisoning organisms may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen Guide. USDA Rev. June 1985.) Broiling Guide Preheat the broiler for 2 minutes to improve performance. Food Beef Chicken Doneness Rare (140°F) Medium (160°F) Well Done (170°F) Type or Thickness Steaks - 1″ thick Rack Position* E or F (food should be 1″ to 3″ from broil element) Steaks - 3/4″ to 1″ thick E (food should be 3″ to 4″ from broil element) Steaks - D or E (food should be 3″ 3/4″ to 1″ thick to 5″ from broil element) or Ground Beef Patties Breast, boneless C (food should be 8″ to 9″ from broil element) Comments Steaks less than 1″ thick are difficult to cook rare. They cook through before browning. To prevent curling of meat, slash fat at 1″ intervals. Broil skin-side-down first. Breast, bone-in C (food should be 7″ to 8″ from broil element) Fish Fillets 1/2″ to 1″ thick D or E (food should be 3″ Handle and turn very to 6″ from broil element) carefully.
