Kenmore ELECTRIC RANGE 790.4660 - Manual (Page 29)

Setting Oven Controls (cont’d)
Setting Broil
The(BRoiy pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage.
The Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F; however, the Broil feature temperature may be set between 400°F and
550°F. For optimum browning results when broiling, preheat the broil element for 3 to 4 minutes. This appliance includes a
Searing Grill for searing meats (Figures). The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allow dripping grease to drain and
be kept away from the high heat of the oven broiler.
DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. Always place insert on
the broiler pan with ribs and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan(See Figure 5). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert
with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.
A WARN INC Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn off the oven. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire exfinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water
can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

move the broiling pan to a different rack position to suit for doneness. If the food you are broiling
is not listed in the table, follow the instructions provided in your cookbook and watch the item
closely. Use the Searing Grill for meats and steaks if desired. Before placing the meat, be sure
to heat the Searing Grill using Broil for 10 minutes. Cook times should be reduced 1-2 minutes
