Lo Broil
† 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.)
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Close the door. Always broil with the door
closed.
Place the meat or fish on a broiler
grid in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions in
the Broiling Guide.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature
and your preference for 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.

Close the door. Always broil with

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