3) INSTRUCTIONS FOR BROILING
Always use the multi-purpose oven tray with the wire rack for broiling. No preheating of the broiler
is necessary.
Do not leave the broiler unattended when in use. Before using the broiler for the first time and after
use, wash the tray and the rack with warm, sudsy water. Do not cover the oven wire rack with foil.
This prevents fat and oils from draining, causing spatter and smoking, and also restricts air
circulation for proper ventilation.
BROILING
1. Place the accessories as follows:
• If the oven is not provided with the broiling rack
- Insert the wire rack in position 3 or 4 (please see page 3).
- Place the multi-purpose oven tray directly on the lower
heating element.
- Put the food to be broiled on the wire rack.
• If the oven is provided with the broiling rack
- Put the broiling rack inside the multi-purpose oven tray, as shown in fig. 1.
- Place the food to be broiled on the broiling rack.
- Insert the wire rack in position 5 or 6 (please see page 3) and then put the broiling assembly
with the food on the wire rack.
Always allow 1" between food and upper heating element.
2. Leave the oven door half open, as shown in fig. 2
3. Turn the lower knob to "BROIL".
4. Turn the upper knob to "ON".
5. When broiling is finished, turn the upper knob to "OFF" and the lower knob to position " ". Care
should be taken when removing the broiler pan and disposing of the grease collected while
broiling.
NOTE: While smoke is an inherent characteristic of good broiling, the following tips should
eliminate or greatly reduce smoking.
• Trim excess fat from meat and score the edges to prevent curling.
• For best results, thaw frozen meats before broiling. These two precautions will reduce or eliminate
smoke from the broiler.
• Placing the food on the rack allows the juices and fat to drip into the oven tray and decreases
spattering while broiling.
