If food is cooking too fast, turn the Oven Tem-
perature Control Knob counterclockwise until
the OVEN HEATING Indicator Light goes off.
l
If you want the food to broil slower from the start,
set the Oven Temperature Control Knob between
170°F and 325°F (77°C and 163°C). These
temperature settings allow the broil heating
element to cycle and to slow cooking. The lower
the temperature, the slower the cooking.
l
Fish and chicken are some foods that may cook
better if you use lower broiling temperatures.
The Oven Selector must be on BROIL for all
broiling temperatures.
NOTE: Leave the oven door partly open when-
ever using the oven to broil. Leaving the door
open allows the oven to maintain proper
temperatures.
