OVEN SMOKES EXCESSIVELY DURING BROILING
Meat too close to the broiler element. Reposition the rack to provide more clearance between the
meat and the broiler. Preheat broil element for quick searing operation.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to prevent
curling, but do not cut into the lean.
Grid on broiler pan wrong side-up. Grease does not 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.

the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil.
Oven needs to be cleaned. Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary

and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
• Excessive spillovers in oven. Set the self-clean cycle for longer cleaning time.
