How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Leave the door open to the broil stop position.
The door stays open by itself, yet the proper
temperature is maintained in the oven.
NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door
closed but it may not brown as well because
the oven heating element will cycle on and off.
Place the meat or fish on the broiler
grid in the broiler pan.
Follow suggested shelf positions in
the Broiling Guide.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature and your preference of
doneness will affect broiling times. This
guide is based on meats at refrigerator
temperature.
Press the BROIL HI/LO pad once for
HI Broil.
To change to LO Broil, press the
BROIL HI/LO pad again.
Press the START pad.
When broiling is finished, press the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
NOTE: On some models, the lower oven is
controlled with a knob. To set the oven for broiling,
turn the knob to BROIL. Turn the knob to OFF
when broiling is complete.

If your oven is connected to 208 volts,
rare steaks may be broiled by
preheating the broiler and positioning
the oven shelf one position higher.
† 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.)
