How to Set the Upper Oven for Broiling—Close the oven door
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid
in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions in
the Broiling Guide.
The oven door must be closed during
broiling.
Touch the BROIL HI/LO pad once for
HI Broil.
To change to LO Broil, touch
the BROIL HI/LO pad again.
Touch the START pad.
NOTE: The display will always automatically
remind you to close the door.
When broiling is finished, touch
the OFF pad.
Serve the food immediately, and leave
the pan outside the oven to cool during
the meal for easiest cleaning.
Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry
or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.
The size, weight, thickness,
starting temperature and your
preference of doneness will affect
broiling times. This guide is based
on meats at refrigerator
temperature.
†The U.S. Department of Agriculture
says “Rare beef is popular, but you
should know that cooking it to only
140°F means some food poisoning
organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe
Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA
Rev. June 1985.)
