Kenmore ELITE 790.7943 - Manual (Page 21)

The (^Br^ 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 at any temperature
between 400°F and 550°F.
DO NOT cover the oven racks with aluminum foil. The exposed grease could catch fire. The broil pan and broil pan
insert (optional accessory) used together allows 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 (See Fig. 5).

decrease broiling times, or 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
