Setting Oven Controls (cont'd)
Setting Broil
The _
pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even 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; always place the insert broiler pan with ribs down (See
Figure 4). 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.
INSTRUCTIONS
To set the oven to broil at the default setting (550°F)
1. Place the broiler pan insert ribs down on the broiler pan. Then place
the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use the broiler pan
without the insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert with foil. The
exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack.
Be sure to center the broiler pan directly under the broiler burner.

Times and

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 5).
