Setting Broil
Bro=l
The ', ,,,_' pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage.
The Broil feature temperature may be set between 400°F and 550°F. This appliance includes a Searing Grill for searing
meats (Figure 6). 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.

Broiling Times and Searing Grill
Use the following table for approximate broiling times. Increase or decrease broiling times,
or move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are
broiling is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch
the item closely. Use the Searing Grill for meats and steaks if desired. Before placing the
meat, be sure to heat the Searing Grill using Broil for 10 minutes. Cook times should be
reduced 1-2 minutes per side when cooking with the Searing Grill. Place Searing Grill on top
of Broiler Pan and insert for meats and steaks (See Figure 6).
