Solutions to Common Problems
POSSIBLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

between the meat and the broiler.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Slash remaining fatty edges
to prevent curling, but do not cut into the lean.

without the insert or cover the insert with foil.

of grease or food spatters. If broiling often, clean on a regular basis.

Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center
food in the oven and space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to
the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's
recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is cooking too hot or cool,
see Adjusting Your Oven Temperature.

are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean these
