Broiler drawer smokes excessively
during broiling.
Poor Baking Results
Flames inside oven or smoke from
vent.
Door is open. Door should be closed during broiling.
Meat too close to the broil burner. Reposition the rack to provide more clearance
between the meat and the broiler.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Slash remaining fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.
Grid on broiler pan wrong side up. Grease cannot 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 covered with foil. DO NOT use the broiler pan
without the grid or cover the grid with foil.
Grease spatters and food buildup cause excessive smoke. Regular cleaning is
necessary when broiling frequently.
Many factors affect baking results. See Baking in your Cooking Guide for hints,
causes and corrections. See Arranging Oven Racks.
Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven temperatures, pie
spillovers or for large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive
spillovers before starting the self-clean cycle.
