Setting Broil
When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler
for even coverage.
The following temperature settings apply to the broil feature:
• Auto-suggest (default setting): 550°F / 288°C.
• Min. bake setting: 400°F / 204°C.
• Max. bake setting: 550°F / 288°C.
To set the oven to broil
See example below to set broil to start immediately at 500°.
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then
place the food on the broiler pan insert. DO NOT use
the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the
broiler insert with foil. The exposed grease could ignite.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan
on the rack. Be sure to center the broiler pan directly
under the broiler element. Make sure the oven door is in
the broil stop position (See Figure 1).
3. Press Broil.
4. Press 5, 0, 0.
5. If a lower broil temperature is desired (minimum
broil temperature setting is 400°F), press the desired
temperature before continuing to step 6.

For best results
• Use the recommended pans and oven rack positions for
the type of meat being prepared.
• For optimum browning results, allow the oven to preheat
5-6 minutes before placing the food in the oven.
• Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.
• Do not cover the broil pan/insert with aluminum foil; the
exposed grease could ignite.
• To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to
prevent grease splattering, do not use the roasting rack
when broiling.
Should an oven re occur, leave the oven door closed and
turn o the oven. If the re continues, throw baking soda on
the re or use a re extinguisher. DO NOT put water or our
on the re. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a
grease re to spread and cause personal injury.
Broiler Pan and Insert (Available with some models)
The broiler pan and the insert allows grease to drain and
be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. DO NOT
use the pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the insert
with foil; the exposed grease could ignite.
Broiler Clean-Up Tips (some models):
• To make cleaning easier, line the bottom of the broiler
pan with aluminum foil. DO NOT cover the broiler grid
with foil.
• To prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler
pan from the oven as soon as cooking is completed.
