clearance between the meat and the broiler. Preheat broil element for quick
searing operation.
- Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty
edges to orevent curling, but do not cut into the lean
- Grid on broiler pan wrong side-up. Grease does not drain into broiler pan. Always
place the grid on the broiler pan with the ribs up and the slots down to allow grease
to drip into the pan.
• Broiler pan used without grid or grid cover with aluminum foil. 130 NOT use the
broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
• Oven needs to be cleaned Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular
cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Grease or food spatters cause
excessive smoking.

removed after
self-cleaning
cycle is
completed

oven seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough
to burn on residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started.

scrubber: Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.

having a flat bottom heat better than warped pans. Cookware material affects
heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans
heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
