Broil
Use the broil feature to cook meats requiring direct exposure to
radiant heat for optimum browning results. Broil foods with the
oven door closed.
If an oven fire occurs, turn the oven off and do not open the door.
Opening the door will feed oxygen to the fire. If the fire continues,
you can throw baking soda on the fire or use a Class B/C fire ex-
tinguisher. Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour can be ex-
plosive and water can cause a grease fire to spread possibly
causing personal injury.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when working with a hot ov-
en. When broiling, the oven interior, oven racks and cooktop will
become hot enough to cause burns. Do not use the broiler pan
without the insert. Do not cover the broil pan or insert with alumi-
num foil; the exposed grease could ignite.
Figure 18: Rack positions
To prevent food from contacting the broil element, place on
appropriate rack position for the thickness of the food. To
prevent grease splattering, use the broil pan and insert when
broiling. Do not use the broiler pan without the insert. Do not
cover the broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could
ignite.The insert is slotted and allows the grease to drain away
from the meat and the high heat of the broiler into the broiler pan
(Figure
19).

when cooking is completed or to cancel broil.
For optimum browning results, fully preheat for 5 minutes
before placing meat in the oven. To avoid burning food,
watch the food carefully when broiling and turn meat when
needed. Broil with the oven door closed.
