Setting Broil

The

pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even

Broil

coverage. The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F; however, the Broil feature temperature may be set

between 400°F and 550°F. The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and be kept

away from the high heat of the oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Figure 5). DO NOT

cover the broil pan insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.

Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw

baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and

water can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
