Notes:
• See Broiling Chart for foods and broiling times.
• If more than 30 seconds elapse between pressing the
Broil pad, Quickset pads, or number pads, the oven will
not be set and the display will return to the previous
display.
• HIGH is used for most broiling. Use a lower broil
temperature when broiling longer-cooking foods. The
lower temperature allows food to cook to the well done
stage without excessive browning.
• Expect broil times to increase and browning to be slightly
lighter if the appliance is installed on a 208 volt circuit.
• Food should be turned halfway through broiling time.
• Broil times may be longer when lower broiling
temperatures are selected.

Oven Bottom

Protect oven bottom against spillovers, especially acidic or
sugary spills, as they may discolor the porcelain enamel. Use
the correct pan size to avoid spillovers and boilovers. Do not
place utensils or aluminum foil directly on the oven
bottom.
