Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Installation Instructions ge.com If your model has a door latch, do not lock the oven door with the latch during broiling. The latch is used for self-cleaning only. Close the door. Always broil with the door closed. How to Set the Upper Oven for Broiling Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid in a broiler pan. Follow suggested shelf positions in the Broiling Guide. The oven door must be closed during broiling. Touch the Start pad. When broiling is finished, touch the Clear/Off pad. Serve the food immediately, and leave the pan outside the oven to cool during the meal for easiest cleaning. Touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad once for Hi Broil. To change to Lo Broil, touch the Broil Hi/Lo pad again. Use Lo Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without over-browning them. 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.) The oven has 5 shelf positions.
